The Weekly Geek

Podcast for 06.29.09 | Satisfaction

frodo@weeklygeekshow.com — Mon, 29 Jun 2009 22:23:37 -0700

At what point does a game stop being fun and start being work? This week, Ross Rosenberg, Jinny, Ryan G Biv and I focus on the theme of satisfaction. What makes us continue playing a game even if it kicks our ass all over the room? Why do we persevere in the face of ridiculous difficulty and unfair game mechanics? We also touch on game and movie news, from the new Heavy Metal movie, to a Facebook movie, Miyazaki's new movie, a rumored PS3 operating system refresh, Nintendo's new auto-play help system, Michael Jackson's death (and how it affected the internets), along with some great iPhone games to download.

Podcast for 06.22.09 | Go Ask Alice

frodo@weeklygeekshow.com — Mon, 22 Jun 2009 22:23:37 -0700

Bringing you the week in geekery, it's Jinny, me and the super famous Ross Rosenberg. We talk about the new Tim Burton Alice in Wonderland remake, Fallout 3's new Point Lookout DLC, the iPhone 3GS and Ngmoco's new Plus+ network, a life-sized Gundam statue finally finished in Japan (and set to become our new overlord), Lord of the Rings coming to Blu-Ray, 1vs100 and how dirty Bob Saget is as a stand-up comedian, Pixar granting a dying girl's last wish... look, if I tell you that this podcast is epic you have to believe it. It. Is. Epic. How can you possibly distill all this information on your own? I say, you cannot! That is why we are here, to bring you all of these good things in the span of an hour and ten minutes or so.

Podcast for 06.15.09 | ProtoFAMOUS

frodo@weeklygeekshow.com — Mon, 15 Jun 2009 22:23:37 -0700

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.

Podcast for 06.08.09 | E3 2009 Wrap Up

frodo@weeklygeekshow.com — Mon, 08 Jun 2009 22:23:37 -0700

It's been a looooong week full of news in the geeky realm, mostly coming out of the gaping maw of hell that is Los Angeles and E3. In this week's podcast we attempt to wrangle the rest of the E3 news we care about, most likely missing a massive amount of information in the meantime. There's just too much to fit into one podcast! Nintendo and Sony's press conferences are the focus, but we also talk about the glut of sequels (and why that may actually be a good thing), the WWDC Apple keynote and the new iPhone 3g S, what we've been playing this week and we dip into a heaping helping of mailbag. A meaty helping, sure to nourish and enrich for hours after ingestion.

Podcast for 06.01.09 | So It Begins

frodo@weeklygeekshow.com — Mon, 01 Jun 2009 22:23:37 -0700

It's like geek Christmas. E3 is where all the good little gamer girls and boys get to learn about the games they're going to be dropping their hard earned cash on when the real Christmas comes along. Today marks the beginning of the biggest video game convention of the year, with the Microsoft press conference. They set the bar pretty high, and this week's podcast is devoted to all the crazy-ass stuff Microsoft showed off. We talk about Left 4 Dead 2, Crackdown 2, Metal Gear, the new motion controller thing and the creepy little kid simulator thing. We also discuss why we want the ability to have two Netflix accounts on one box

Podcast for 05.25.09 | Sriracha

frodo@weeklygeekshow.com — Mon, 25 May 2009 22:23:37 -0700

Beating the heat this week, Ryan, Jinny and Ross join me to talk about this week's news in the geek world. The Metroid Prime series gets ported to the Wii, Monkey Island is getting ported to the Xbox 360, V is getting remade for ABC and we rant a bit about the need to remake and repackage all of this media, just to sell it back to us in the end. There's a bit of food talk, a bit of movie talk and a lot of video game talk. You know. It's an episode of The Weekly Geek. Enjoy.

Podcast for 05.18.09 | Wherefore art thou geek?

frodo@weeklygeekshow.com — Mon, 18 May 2009 22:23:37 -0700

What makes a geek truly a geek? Does the distinction between true and supposedly false geeks even matter? On this week's podcast we focus on geek culture and geek pride - delving into topics such as Star Trek canon (and if canon is even as important as geeks make it out to be), internet celebrities who call themselves geeks but probably aren't, and a small smattering of game news. Then it's on to what we're playing and mailbag as always, but this podcast has a lot of discussion about what makes us geeks at the very core. I think it's a pretty interesting topic, I hope you do too. Here it is. A podcast. For you. Enjoy.

Podcast for 05.11.09 | 9000 Reasons To Love Star Trek

frodo@weeklygeekshow.com — Mon, 11 May 2009 22:23:37 -0700

This week sees the end of Jinny and Ryan's race to 9000 gamerpoints, and they are both exhausted. We talk about how E3 is fast approaching and what games we're looking forward to seeing more about, the new Star Trek reboot and how the movie is awesome, Fallout 3's Broken Steel DLC, a new Weekly Geek editor is introduced, and Jinny and I talk about our recent trip to Disneyland and California Adventure, and the craziness of the new Toy Story ride. Oh yeah, Ross is here too. Fully enjoyable, robust and deep in flavor, this is a podcast you will enjoy.

Podcast for 05.04.09 | Calm Before the Storm

frodo@weeklygeekshow.com — Mon, 04 May 2009 22:23:37 -0700

Can you feel that tingle in the air? The excitement turns palpable as Jinny and Ryan's race to 9000 comes to a head - they're both at 8000+ and one of them is going to hit 9000 soon, but who? The super-famous Ross Rosenberg also joins us to talk about some video game news, Myst and Peggle on the iphone, PixelJunk Monsters on the PSP and a super nerdy (and possibly awesome) Lord of the Rings fan movie that definitely bears mentioning. Also this week we have a super special bonus, Mint.com CEO Aaron Patzer joins us for the last bits of the podcast to discuss Mint's new Financial Fitness feature - turning personal finance into a race for arbitrary points, just like achievements! FINALLY, A REASON TO SAVE MONEY.

Podcast for 04.27.09 | World of Pegglecraft

frodo@weeklygeekshow.com — Mon, 27 Apr 2009 22:23:37 -0700

What makes a hardcore gamer hardcore? Why does the hardcore gamer have a beef with the casual? Join me, Jinny and Ross this week as we tackle this debate of hardcore vs. casual, and the elitists therein. We also discuss how Peggle inside World of Warcraft is potentially a society-crashing invention, how LEGO Rock Band isn't solely a cash-in game, and much much more.

Podcast for 04.20.09 | Tangent

frodo@weeklygeekshow.com — Mon, 20 Apr 2009 22:23:37 -0700

This week's podcast is full of tangents with me, Ross, Ryan and Qais talking about the new Fallout game (and subsequent TV show/movie?), zombie board games and Bioshock 2. Jinny then joins us to talk about Fat Princess, Starcraft II and Drop7. We then give you an update on the race to NINE THOUSAND and crack open the mailbag to continue the fight for the right to be called The Weekly Geek's #1 fan.

Podcast for 04.13.09 | I'm Your #1 Fan

frodo@weeklygeekshow.com — Mon, 13 Apr 2009 22:23:37 -0700

Have you ever had the feeling someone's watching you? Hm... this week's podcast takes an interesting turn as the fight for the Weekly Geek's #1 fan comes to a head. LIOR LAYS THE SMACK DOWN. I'm telling you, it's epic. Join me, Jinny and Ryan this week as we discuss Wil Wright leaving EA, Shadow of The Colossus being turned into a Major Motion Picture&trade, Bioshock 2's first footage, ecstasy pills found in a used copy of GTAIV, and the NEOGAF thread with the Criterion covers of video games. We also eat our words regarding Resident Evil 5 and read some absolutely amazingly epic mailbag letters.

Podcast for 04.06.09 | Comics!

frodo@weeklygeekshow.com — Mon, 06 Apr 2009 22:23:37 -0700

Jinny, Ryan and I visited the Emerald City Comic Con in Seattle this weekend and walked away with some pretty amazing art from some incredible artists. This week's podcast is all about that, with Ross in tow to chat about the good, the bad, and the completely awesome. We tell you about some of the cool stuff we saw at the con, and discuss con etiquette. There's some video game talk at the end, so if that's your thing, we won't blame you. It's there. For you. Enjoy.

frodo@weeklygeekshow.com — Mon, 30 Mar 2009 22:23:37 -0700

The usual cast gets their geek on this week, talkin' bout Battlestar Galactica (no spoilers, we swear!) and what we really expect from a series finale. It's also GDC time, so we discuss a little gaming news and declare the iPhone a viable gaming platform. Why, you ask? Well you'll just have to listen to the show! We also discuss the existential weirdness that is Instant Action, and how PC gaming may just rise from the ashes. Ross also introduces us to a very intriguing PC game called The Path, and then we all gush about a little iPhone game called Drop 7. Lots of mailbag, too.

Podcast for 03.23.09 | Drop It Like It's Hot

frodo@weeklygeekshow.com — Mon, 23 Mar 2009 11:06:23 -0700

Podcast for 03.16.09 | Embarrassing

frodo@weeklygeekshow.com — Mon, 16 Mar 2009 11:06:23 -0700

After listening to this week's podcast, you're going to seriously re-think the way you view the world. It is that mind-blowing. What kind of podcast deserves this much hyperbole? Why, one with me, Jinny and Ross, of course! Join us this week as we discuss the most recent Bioshock 2 rumor quashing, pointing fingers at who started it and who propagated it. After the actual details are revealed, we ponder if sequels actually tarnish their source material in any way. Professor Layton is seeing a new trilogy in Japan, but will we see it in the states? Then, I recommend a podcast for the first time ever, and we berate the SciFi channel for their ridiculous re-branding. I also talk about tater tots. Then we open the mailbag. These are exciting times, my friend. Exciting times that call for an exciting podcast. Won't you listen?

Podcast for 03.09.09 | In a Quandry

frodo@weeklygeekshow.com — Mon, 09 Mar 2009 11:06:23 -0700

This week's podcast is special not only for the mind-blowing Tracy Morgan impersonation Qais has perfected, but because Ryan is actually here in Seattle with us to record the show! Join us, along with Jinny and Ross, in discussing the week in geekery. We've seen Watchmen and we tell you what we think of the ridiculous amount of blue wieners in the movie. The Beatles Rock Band gets a release date and we talk Boy and His Blob and our memories of obscure retro games and lies kids told about video games. We also discuss Shaq and how his giant game of Twitter tag proves he's some sort of alien. Or robot. Either one. And more! SO much more.

Podcast for 03.02.09 | Human Bean Juice

frodo@weeklygeekshow.com — Mon, 02 Mar 2009 11:06:23 -0800

It's Watchmen time already! This week sees the release of a movie based on a comic book that may or may not upset aforementioned comic book's hardcore fanbase! Join me, Jinny, Ross and Ryan as we discuss Alan Moore's superhero masterpiece and how it really can't be adapted to cinema. We try to answer the question of whether or not movies based on books tarnish the memory of the book, talk about Jimmy Fallon taking over Late Night, Sam Jackson returning as Nick Fury, jabber a bit on about Flower some more, move on to the evergreen geek subject of zombies and then descend into madness discussing the utopian dreams of Utilikilt-wearing wolfshirts. It's all out of love, people. And of course, mailbag! Lots and lots of mailbag. Thanks, guys!

Podcast for 02.23.09 | Ripping Off Gamers for Fun and Profit

frodo@weeklygeekshow.com — Mon, 23 Feb 2009 11:06:23 -0800

Hey there, denizen of the Internet! Are you interested in what many people (read: zero people) have described as "The View" for the gamer set? Aren't you in luck! Join me, Jinny, Ross and Ryan as we round up the week's news. We talk about why none of us has bought Street Fighter IV yet, GTA's Lost and Damned DLC, how Noby Noby Boy is not a game and actually not very fun at all anyway, Destructoid being one of the most valuable blogs on the Internet (really!), and how Call of Duty can't *really* make you honor or dishonor the Geneva Convention, no matter what Cory Doctorow says. In addition, thanks for all the mailbag letters this week! We try to answer them all. Enjoy!

Podcast for 02.16.09 | Flower Power Hour

frodo@weeklygeekshow.com — Mon, 16 Feb 2009 11:06:23 -0800

It was a great week for gaming and geekdom in general with downloadable content and new releases galore. Join me, Jinny, Ross and Ryan as we fill your ears with insane babbling for a full hour. This is the future of media, people. We talk about a variety of subjects from Flower on the PSN to the Grand Theft Auto IV DLC to downloadable vibrator programs. Popping open the mailbag leads to a discussion about movies and we find that we actually have a lot to look forward to in 2009. We also continue Ryan and Jinny's Gamerscore battle saga. Epic. It's a good show, won't you join us? Won't you?

Podcast for 02.09.09 | Hot Nude Splinter

frodo@weeklygeekshow.com — Mon, 09 Feb 2009 11:06:23 -0800

More than you've ever wanted to be revealed on a Weekly Geek podcast is revealed in this week's episode. We've got Jinny, Ryan and Ross warming up their action figures and doing questionable things to books. In this episode we talk about Dead Rising 2, the old Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles action figure molds being brought back into service, Fallout 3's DLC being delayed, the new Kindle and how it may be the bane of book fetishists everywhere, Coraline and how you should definitely see it in 3d (while you can!), our survey results, and my borderline offensive dislike of Anime and the brand of storytelling it promotes. We run a bit long this week and Ross starts to get really quiet around the 15 minute mark, so adjust your expectations accordingly. THANKS.

Podcast for 02.02.09 | Tickle Fight

frodo@weeklygeekshow.com — Mon, 02 Feb 2009 11:06:23 -0800

The news cycle starts to spool up as Ross, Ryan , Jinny and I tackle this week's big gaming news. E3 registration is open and we contemplate what makes it different from other trade shows, and how it's the same. Starcraft classes are being taught at UC Berkeley and we discuss the academic merits of this. We look at some nifty Left 4 Dead valentines and download the Resident Evil 5 demo. After a bit of insight into why the Resident Evil 5 demo makes us not want to purchase the game, we talk R-Type and dip into the mailbag to discuss more quirks and iPhone apps.

Podcast for 01.26.09 | Quirks

frodo@weeklygeekshow.com — Mon, 26 Jan 2009 11:06:23 -0800

This week's podcast sees the intense Gamerscore competition between Jinny and Ryan finally coming to a head with Jinny sporting a five point lead. How long will this last?! Join Ross and I as we taunt the contestants, stirring them into a blood frenzy! It marks Jinny's first time completing Bioshock, and we look back at how influential that game has been in the short time since it's been released. A mailbag question then spurs a conversation about quirks and how people who tend to be geeky also tend to be... weird. A magazine we've never heard of gets sold on eBay, and then the robots finally take over. I for one welcome... you to download this week's podcast! Haha! *cough*

Podcast for 01.19.09 | Slow News Day

frodo@weeklygeekshow.com — Tue, 20 Jan 2009 11:06:23 -0800

Instead of just forgoing the podcast this week because of lack of news, Jinny, Qais and I attempt to get Ross and Ryan on the air, but something went horribly wrong with our Internet connection. So instead you get us discussing mailbag questions, Fallout 3's depth and Fable 2's sex-change potion.

Podcast for 01.12.09 | Spoiler Alert

frodo@weeklygeekshow.com — Mon, 12 Jan 2009 09:44:05 -0800

On this first podcast of the new year, Jinny, Ross, Ryan and I contemplate the existence of top of the year lists. Are they actually useful, or are they just masturbatory? We also talk about what we're looking forward to in 2009, and some new technologies we've adopted in 08 in order to make our lives better. There is also a lengthy discussion about headphones. You've been warned.

Podcast for 12.29.08 | Snowed In

frodo@weeklygeekshow.com — Tue, 30 Dec 2008 09:44:05 -0800

This week's episode we spend some time cleaning out the mailbag and talking about what games we played over the break. It was a lot of games and this bears discussion. *Is* Left 4 Dead the best game evar? *Is* the new Prince of Persia too easy? *Is* Fable 2 just an early beta and the real game's going to be released Christmas 2009? It's like you're sitting here with me, Ross, Qais and Jinny with a cup of hot cocoa, warming your toes by the fire. Maybe your cup of cocoa has been spiked with Bailey's or peppermint Schnapps's and you're getting shitfaced. Shitfaced with The Weekly Geek. Happy New Year.

Podcast for 12.15.08 | Top 5 Games of 2008

frodo@weeklygeekshow.com — Mon, 15 Dec 2008 21:57:28 -0800

Despite how much we whine on the show about the glut of game sequels and the overabundance of shovelware, this year was definitely the best year for video games in recent memory. We saw giant sequel-mills who typically churn out crud actually make decent new IPs, co-op and online multiplayer really hit its stride, music games lived up to their promises as expandable platforms with DLC. Handhelds and downloadable titles kept in step with bigger boxed releases, and indie gaming finally got the attention it deserved. So what does everyone from The Weekly Geek feel was the best of the best? I asked everyone on staff to select five of their favorite releases from 2008 and while a few titles persist, some choices surprise. This week's podcast is all about our individual top five lists, and be sure to check out all The Weekly Geek writers lists as well after the jump.

Podcast for 12.08.08 | but the screen was much smaller

frodo@weeklygeekshow.com — Mon, 08 Dec 2008 21:57:28 -0800

In addition to the aforementioned items, we also discuss Time magazine's top 10 games of 2008, the new Mirror's Edge DLC, how Left 4 Dead is not Halo, and how Banjo-Kazooie makes me sad. Also we announce a contest and open the mailbag! Enjoy it, please.

Podcast for 12.01.08 | Wake Up, Crono!

frodo@weeklygeekshow.com — Mon, 01 Dec 2008 21:57:28 -0800

Back from break with lots of gaming under our collective belts, this week's show features me, Jinny, Ross and Ryan talking about the latest Street Fighter 2 iteration, whether or not the new Prince of Persia is going to sell any copies being released so late in the season, Left 4 Dead being completely awesome (well, almost completely), Nintendo game counselors, Chrono Trigger... it's just the usual assortment of random tangents and geeky discussion you've come to know and tolerate. Plus, there's mailbag. So that's a bonus.

Podcast for 11.17.08 | Proprioception

frodo@weeklygeekshow.com — Mon, 17 Nov 2008 21:57:28 -0800

I apologize in advance for any aneurysms you may have from the mispronunciation of words in this week's podcast, but hopefully Jinny, Qais, Ross and John Forster will be entertaining enough to outweigh any vocab vitriol. This week we discuss what games are more worth your money than others, and we dabble in the philosophy behind their very existence, and the greater good of gaming as a whole. Mirror's Edge is also discussed, and we try to pronounce big words. We make fun of a poor child who collapsed from exhaustion after playing World of Warcraft, and then we drool a bit over Left 4 Dead. The mailbag is also splayed open for your sick pleasure. Enjoy!

Podcast for 11.10.08 | Sea Change

frodo@weeklygeekshow.com — Mon, 10 Nov 2008 20:41:53 -0800

Things get a wee bit political this week as Jinny, Ross, Ryan and I discuss last week's events through the geek lens. We discuss Obama's wired presidency and the brilliance of Change.gov, the release of Gears of War 2 and the games' resemblence to a The Legend of Zelda and the true meaning of game industry secrets. We then discuss Wii Music from an educator's perspective, Dance Dance Revolution The Musical, a Watchmen video game and we dip into the mailbag.

Podcast for 11.03.08 | Little Big Podcast

frodo@weeklygeekshow.com — Mon, 10 Nov 2008 21:48:43 -0800

On this week's podcast Jinny and Ross join me to discuss the Sci-Fi channel's new video game reality show, Square Enix's new Japanese iPhone game, The Beatles' music game announcement, a computer program that is pure evil, Mushroom Men's fantastic music, the open-ended glory of Fallout 3 and Little Big Planet's ups and downs.

Topics this week include the new Xbox Experience, Fable II and whether or not its flaws affect the overall game, the new Star Wars MMO announcement, what happens when you turn off notifications on your 360 and you think you stop getting achievements (omg), the "missing gamer" demographic aaaaaaaand then we piss off Fallout fans. Not on purpose! Then - a special food section where Jinny and Chris talk about how they tried out for a reality show and tripped on some Miracle Fruit. Also your mailbag questions are answered. It's a lot of stuff! A random assortment of topics pertinent to your interests as a geek. Enjoy.

This week we're discussing E3 opening its doors to the public again, Little Big Planet being delayed for offending people, whether or not you should feel guilty for pirating games, Mother 3, Bioshock 2 and co-op split screen gaming. We also dip into the mailbag and discuss the scariest games we've ever played, and Qais whips out the most epic mailbag reading of all time. It's a full cast and a full 20 minutes longer than usual. It's like its your birthday or something!

This week's podcast features Qais, Chris, Jinny and Ross discussing various ephemera floating about in the geek sphere. Do you have to have a high def TV in order to truly experience games these days, or does standard suffice? Will Penn and Teller's upcoming tv show on video game violence actually teach us anything new? Why will the movie based on The Sims ultimately fail? Do MMOs ruin lives? Where do babies come from?

frodo@weeklygeekshow.com — Mon, 22 Sep 2008 06:44:54 -0700

Hi! This week, Chris, Jinny and Ross sat down to discuss things that you may enjoy listening to. These things include Nintendo releasing a crazy amount of good games this week, whether or not World of Warcraft is work, if Portal may lose it's funny and how to keep on gaming during a financial crunch.

Qais, Chris, Jinny and Ross hit you this week with one very entertaining, very not safe for work podcast featuring a variety of subjects to amuse and delight. Spore released this week and we've got impressions and a discussion (ok, argument) about all the hype and why an 8 or 9 out of 10 isn't a bad review score after all. We talk a little Castle Crashers, a little Soul Calibur IV, and discuss (argue) about video games' tenuous link with science.

In the aftermath of E3 2008, Chris, Qais and Jinny discuss what ensued during the Nintendo and Sony conferences, and other great games announced at the now stripped down show.

frodo@weeklygeekshow.com — Mon, 02 Jun 2008 22:14:19 -0700

With companies catering to the swelling masses of "casual" gamers, hardcore gamers are starting to feel slightly underrepresented. This week, Chris, Qais and Jinny talk about (more like obsess about) The World Ends With You and what it does to shake up the RPG formula, how Guitar Hero for the DS may actually be good, Beyond Good and Evil getting a much-deserved sequel, and the strange subset of hardcore Warcraft III custom map players. We then proceed to rip through the mailbag, where we actually read your actual letters on the air. I don't know how it works, I'm not a scientist.

This week isn't ALL about Grand Theft Auto IV, though it's hard to talk about anything else this week as its been ruling most gamers' lives. In a good way. Chris and Qais discuss the greater value of Grand Theft Auto as a piece of high art, completely without sarcasm! No, seriously! Why don't you believe me?!

Podcast for 4-07-08 | Relating to "Gamers"

frodo@weeklygeekshow.com — Sat, 26 Apr 2008 12:43:07 -0700

Is being called a "gamer" a bad thing? On this week's podcast, Chris, Mack and Qais look into how gamers as a group are regarded by the general populace. Are we really all just trash talking escapist sociopaths? Or is "gamer" just another flavor of geek?

This week Chris, Qais, Colette and Mack scrape the bottom of the barrel of geek news this week to discuss the Portal song in Rock Band, Bawls' G33K B33R, Grand Theft Auto IV, and Microsoft's lawyers being very un-lawyery.

It's just Chris and Qais on the podcast this week, as the duo discuss the Weekly Geek t-shirt contest, how St. Patrick's day sucks, free Guitar Hero DLC, and how Dreamworks sucks. But not everything sucks! We also talk about the MMO documentary Second Skin, and how we think that it would be nice to see a documentary paint gamers in a kind light, but how it's not likely to fill seats at the theater. Ok, that kind of sucks. All of these topics and more await you!

While all the rest of the world was scouring the Internet for videos of their favorite Super Bowl commercials, The Weekly Geek was recording our least caustic podcast ever! Chris, Qais, Mack and Colette ramble about the dangers of man-children, squeal about Ender's Game becoming a...uh...game (speculating which other books would make good games in the process), cast a realistically pessimistic eye on Rock Band for the Wii, and unapologetically profess their rampant book-lust. Our PopCap cover contest winners are announced within, and the moment you've all been waiting for: Qais gets a new gamertag.

Podcast for 06-12-07 | Vagoos Are Sensitive Too

frodo@weeklygeekshow.com — Tue, 12 Jun 2007 06:35:58 -0700
Making up new words for the English lexicon just for you, The Weekly Geek listener. This week features Chris, The Geek and Colette running up an ever increasing ramp of offensiveness. We hear a fantastic short version of all of the pent up angry from the last show, Halo 3's beta ending was also discussed, which produced much anger. Then it's on to anger focused at used game stores, and a little bit of anger towards television networks towards the end. But it's not all cantankerous podcastery this week, no! The Star Wars TV series may actually be good, Rock Band rocks (inside sources say) and Cthulhu finally meets his match.

frodo@weeklygeekshow.com — Mon, 04 Jun 2007 06:35:58 -0700
Surprisingly, for all the talk of Mr. Rogers, this episode of The Weekly Geek contains massive amounts of profanity!

Or something. We've got movie news, a couple video game overviews, and some red rings of death sadness. Check it!

On this week's super excellent podcast, Chris Furniss, The Geek, White Mage and Colette Bennett give you BREAKING NEWS about Starcraft II. Not really breaking, since everyone and their mom knows about it now. They also lament the loss of a childhood institution, rip into Spiderman 3 (the game), gush about Batman, tolerate Transformers, gush even more about Odin Sphere and give away the secrets of the universe. That last part may be a lie.
