Since its release, TNM has caused quite a stir in a great many places. We're going to feature three of them in this news post, starting with Eidos Montreal!
Eidos Montreal
We sent one of our sexed up DVDs to the Eidos Montreal studios after chatting with them about TNM. They kindly sent us back pictures, and material for a small easter egg that was included with the latest patch. Here's a choice few for your viewing pleasure:

PC PowerPlay
PC PowerPlay, an Australian gaming mag, recently stunned us by publishing a multi-page review of TNM. We're incredibly stoked that they took the time to put together such a large and detailed review and dedicated so much page real estate to a mod. Not only that, but we're on the cover and the DVD! We're of course also rather pleased by the 9/10 rating they gave us! Check the scan below, and then go out and buy it!
In addition to the fantastic print article, they also conducted an extensive interview with us via Skype where we talk about the making of TNM, what went right, what went wrong, and how we kept things from falling apart. The interview has been transcribed into delightful text and can be viewed here: Interview -The Nameless Modders
Gamasutra
A number of weeks back, we were interviewed for GameSetWatch by Phill Cameron about the making of TNM. That interview has now shown up on Gamasutra and contains a lot of interesting bits of information on the crazyness and magical potions that were required to keep a mod going for seven years.

Finally, we'd like to send a huge thanks out to everyone who's played TNM and especially to those of you helping spread the word - we love you guys!
congrats guys, very happy to see this coverage!
Impressive, nice to hear that all your hard work has garnered lots of attention.
Awesome, still need to get my sexed up copy.
Best to wait for the special Killer Katana edition, where we've replaced all the weapons with a variety of exciting swords!
heh you *insert male genitalia here* :P
You guys deserve it!
Nice one guys! It's fantastic that some of the mainstream industry can recognise great mods when they appear.
Congratulations guys!
Gratz guys!
Wow thats awesome guys!
Meh...you deserved it. XD :j Congrats! Sweet game guys! Epic revival of my faith in DX (which actually never faded! :P) I gotta redl and finish with the new patch (cuz the trip to the moon would crash me on the ogg.dll render).
Nice work guys...seems all that time you guys put into the mod paid back.
Hoping to see more cool mods from you guys.
I bought the magazine!
the gamasutra article is very interesting..
thanks and congratulations with your achievement!
