Never judge a geek by how he looks on the outside. Instead, look at all the cool stuff he has on the inside (of his house). In this day and age, we don’t have to limit ourselves to virtual obsessions. In fact, most of the fictional things we love are available for purchase in completely tangible…

The OS will be introduced with the newly-announced Nexus 5, but, Google claims, will move to other devices fairly rapidly. In the ever-changing landscape of the smartphone world, let’s consider how things might progress. A Unified Approach…
It seems like such a long time ago that I was staring in awe at the graphical prowess of Call of Duty 2 on my brand spanking new Xbox 360. In reality, it was only 2005. But look at how far we’ve come. In my mind, Call of Duty 2 is still the best game…
Indifference Last week’s episode of The Walking Dead left fans with quite a few cliffhangers to hold on to over the week. Glenn and several other prominent members of the group fell ill to the nasty bug expanding within the prison. Daryl and company ran into a daunting hurdle (or a few thousand) while trying…
