What happens when you quit an MMO and then come back months or even years later?  Which MMOs are best for this?  Why is Secret World featured so prominently in the discussion?  Will Tom ever shut up about Guild Wars 2?  Is Dark Age of Camelot actually still around?  How effectively can McMaster defend World of Warcraft from our scurrilous accusations?  For games of the week, we consider whether Red Dead Redemption holds up, what&#8217;s gone terribly wrong in the first round of DLC for Metro: Last Light, and what sports game is actually an action RPG.<\/p>\n<div class=\"powerpress_player\" id=\"powerpress_player_9941\"><a class=\"fancybox\" rel=\"23522\" href=\"http:\/\/media.blubrry.com\/qt3games\/www.quartertothree.com\/podcasts\/Qt3_Games_Podcast_154_07_24_13.mp3\" title=\"Play\" onclick=\"return powerpress_embed_html5a('9941','http:\/\/media.blubrry.com\/qt3games\/www.quartertothree.com\/podcasts\/Qt3_Games_Podcast_154_07_24_13.mp3');\" target=\"_blank\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.quartertothree.com\/fp\/wp-content\/plugins\/powerpress\/play_audio.png\" title=\"Play\" alt=\"Play\" style=\"border:0;\" width=\"23px\" height=\"24px\" \/<\/a><\/a><\/div>\n<p class=\"powerpress_links powerpress_links_mp3\" style=\"margin-bottom: 1px !important;\">Podcast (games): <a href=\"http:\/\/media.blubrry.com\/qt3games\/www.quartertothree.com\/podcasts\/Qt3_Games_Podcast_154_07_24_13.mp3\" class=\"powerpress_link_pinw\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"Play in new window\" onclick=\"return powerpress_pinw('https:\/\/www.quartertothree.com\/fp\/?powerpress_pinw=23522-games');\" rel=\"nofollow\">Play in new window<\/a> | <a href=\"http:\/\/media.blubrry.com\/qt3games\/www.quartertothree.com\/podcasts\/Qt3_Games_Podcast_154_07_24_13.mp3\" class=\"powerpress_link_d\" title=\"Download\" rel=\"nofollow\" download=\"Qt3_Games_Podcast_154_07_24_13.mp3\">Download<\/a><\/p><p class=\"powerpress_links powerpress_subscribe_links\">Subscribe: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.quartertothree.com\/fp\/feed\/games\/\" class=\"powerpress_link_subscribe powerpress_link_subscribe_rss\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"Subscribe via RSS\" rel=\"nofollow\">RSS<\/a><\/p><!--powerpress_player-->","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[16],"tags":[51],"class_list":["post-23522","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-game_podcasts","tag-guild-wars-2"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.7 -
