Gaming as a Social Life

Wondie — Sun, 02 Jan 2011 22:45:02 +0000

Can playing video games and online computer games like MMOs be considered part of your social life? Is it healthy? Are “online friends” the same as “real life” friends? What are some of the dos and don’ts of socializing in games?

Please comment here, on my Facebook page, and/or call in to the show on January 8th, 2010 at 1pm eastern time.

This week on Gamer Girl Talk, we’ll be discussing role-playing in MMOs. Got any advice for beginners? What are the worst breaches of RP etiquette? Do you prefer to role-play characters that are more like you are in real life or ones that are completely different? Chime in with a comment here and/or give us a call when we’re live on Saturday, December 18th at 1pm eastern!

So What Exactly IS a Gamer Girl?

Wondie — Mon, 06 Dec 2010 21:57:01 +0000

Our first show will cover definitions and stereotypes of gamer girls, as well as the types of games girls prefer to play and why. So how do you define a ‘gamer girl’? What are the stereotypes and do you think they’re deserved? What types of games do you play and why do you like those particular games?
