We're a geek culture podcast and blog covering video games, music, food and more. We are the kinds of people who evangelize whatever we are into - it could be anything - but it's usually pretty geeky. We're casual, conversational, NSFW and hopefully interesting. We hope you enjoy it.

Ok Goozex is Awesome.

Ok, you know how last night on the podcast I was talking about how I signed up for this new video game trading service called Goozex and how I thought it may very well be cool? Turns out, it's completely awesome. Within an hour of finishing the recording, I checked my inbox and I already had four of my requested games come up for trade. Since I didn't have any points yet I couldn't get them, but still these were some pretty great games! I had requested Oblivion and Dead Rising, and both were available. Also, two of my games were requested, Super Paper Mario and Prostroke Golf. Yes, the same Prostroke Golf that I said was a piece of crap and I thought I would never be able to trade. I am shipping the games out today, all I have to do is print out labels and go to the post office. Once they arrive at their destination, I get points and can get games of my own! Sure it's a bit slower than going down to Gamestop, but you aren't feeding the horrible Gamestop/EB Games used game machine, and if you are into older games you may have missed (like myself), the library is unsurpassed. Check Goozex out, tell em "chrisfurniss" sent you. You will thank me. Serious.
