Welcome to show 203!
This time out the No Prisoners, No Mercy Team talks about the following subjects
1. A primer for pvp games - the good, the bad and the frustrating
2. Whether or not realistic combat games translate to real world skills (I have read more than one article about gamers with "mad skills" that became drone pilots)

3. Do we really need professional reviewers of movies and games. More than once I have read reviews saying movies (like the latest Star Wars movie) are terrible - only to go on
to make incredible amounts of money (Star Wars the Last Jedi has now made more than one billion dollars world wide). Many times I find myself saying as I read a reviewer that
hated a fun movie "if you want heavy handed drama go watch an Ingmar Bergman movie". With so many streaming services is the service of a "professional reviewer" about as
useful as a buggy whip? Do they still have an affect on the movie and gaming industry.
