How They're Rated:

Synopsis:

A (sometimes) brief overview of the piece of nerd-ware I'm currently reviewing.

Appearance:

Because we all know looks matter. My humble opinion on the visual factors from in-game graphics to comic book animation.

Game Play:

Obviously this applies only to video games. A much-needed spoiler for how monotonous the game can be. Save button mashing for the arcade.

Don't Change a Thing:

What was done right. From voice acting to artist/author collaborations.

Should have Spent More Time on:

As we all know, the gods and goddesses that bring us our favorite nerd-treasures from on high have a deadline to meet and end up rushing on some aspects. This is all about what they could have done better

Just how Homo:

After all, this is a site for gay nerds. How did this little nugget of geek-gold appeal to Us. From muscly main characters to blurred lines of friendship between male teammates, the things that bring out our inner fictional fantasies.

Own it or Rent it:

With library memberships and sites like GameFly.com its no longer necessary to purchase a game or comic book in order to see it through to the end. This answers that age old question: Is it worth buying it? Money not spent on video games or comic books becomes money that can be spent on other things... like clothes.
