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.

Podcast for 06.15.09 | ProtoFAMOUS

posted by Chris on June 15, 2009 6:18 PM in Podcast

If you were on a deserted island and the only game you can bring with you is either Prototype or InFAMOUS, which would you bring? Why not let The Weekly Geek help you decide? In this week's podcast, we talk about the two very similar sandbox games and the pros and cons of each. We talk a bit about the Ghostbusters game coming out this week, more Metroid Other M details (or lack of details), Scribblenauts and its crazy database of functional imaginary objects, the devs of Darwinia+ opening all their documents and bug reports to the public, EverQuest's legacy, and how to properly season meat. We also touch on the current craziness in Iran, and how Twitter is helping get the word out. All the weird stuff that is currently impacting our world. Just a normal Monday.

The way I see it, a geek is somebody who is just generally socially awkward and unpopular. A nerd is more intellegent, or has extensive knowlege on a particular topic (usually math, science or technology.)

But personally I don't really consider myself either. I see them as words that have lost their meaning, and therefor have become meaningless. I said good day, sir.

Rick Moranis will only emerge from retirement when he receives the sign of Gozer the Traveler, who will come in one of the pre-chosen forms.

What say you?!
