Control Monger is a new MMOFPS currently in development by NetCharger and Mindsurge Entertainment. It features great graphics and gameplay, and has a great community built around it already. Players play either in Team Mode with two teams - Red, House of Kahn or Blue, House of Lo or in a Free For All frenzy. Strategy is required at all times to implement the skills of each of the different types of bots to take advantage of the map. Two modes of gameplay are currently available, death match, or a frantic race to capture the flag. The game is much more tactical than many others as objectives must be destroyed before the flag can be snatched. The opposing team can race to rebuild the objective, shielding the flag from your capture.

I'm enjoying this series (even with last week's technically obtrusive show).

Here's hoping for an eventual bi-weekly release schedule!

Surprisingly knowledgeable/fair discussion of the Linux trademark topic. Nicely handled guys.

(I was afraid that I'd hear some of the crap spewed by some unknowledgeable neowinians about that topic).

wow, Win 95 at 10. I remember getting a free copy of it when buying my first Pc 10 years ago last month. Man, how time flies!

Might want to update the very top right of the main page, then.

Hrm, yes. Neowin Podcast, Episode Three: Attack Of The iPods is still up there in the right-hand corner of the main page.

(sorry, just finished watching all six episodes of Star Wars back-to-back.)

This has been out a while I thought, I listened to it a few day days back from the main webpage

pretty good.

Some suggestions: normalize everyones voice. Everyone is at different volumes and it is annoying. The show would sound more professional if the voices were normalized. I'm not sure what the best way to do this is.

Is there a basic script that is followed? Some of the ad-libbed stuff comes off with sharp corners. Maybe after a few more shows, it will be more polished, I dunno. Going by a stricter script might help things flow together better as well.

What about a "news brief" segment that is short and comes out more often? You could still do the commentary show, but I would download and listen to Kristen doing technology news briefs
