Gotta love Tina Fey. I practically live to say Liz Lemon quotes but I, for one, am appalled that she thinks nerds aren’t synonymous with cool. Haven’t we taken the word back already since nerd chic became a thing? Click here to read what your fellow GN-ers have to say about the story in the...
Hot off the heels from last Sunday’s debut, Bioware releases the extended version of their “Take Earth Back” Mass Effect 3 trailer. And without further wait, here it is: The trailer begins with a young girl playing on the fields with a Normandy ship replica. It then shows the Reapers invading Earth. The cinematic trailer...
Oh Resident Evil. How far you’ve come. The horror franchise hasn’t been the same since the release of Resident Evil 4. Some would say for the better, while others would say for the worse. But the latest offering, Resident Evil: Revelations, has something for both new followers and loyalists alike. With Revelations, Capcom has taken...
Is it just me or does Wonder Woman make everything better? Justice League #2 was good but this issue . . . BAM! Is it the inclusion of Wonder Woman? The Aquaman cliff-hanger? The brief glimpse of Darkseid? Or the Green Lantern and The Flash constantly ragging on Batman? This issue continues where our last...
Shigesato Itoi’s playfully imaginative and offbeat EarthBound was one of the first Japanese RPGs that I had the pleasure of playing as a child. It’s a game that that holds a special place in my heart, and one that I learned to appreciate more as I grew older. Being only eight years old at the...

Score one for equality! A panel of the US 9th Circuit Court of Appeals have ruled that Proposition 8 is unconstitutional in a decision 2 to 1. This does not, however, mean that gays and lesbians can begin wedding preparations just yet. Proposition 8 will still be in effect until the Supreme Court hands down the...
I think we’ve all come to expect a certain level of insanity when it comes to activist groups with the word “family” in them, and the Family Research Council is no different. Tony Perkins, president of the FRC, recently spoke out against Bioware’s planned inclusion of same-sex romance in their Star Wars MMO. Here’s a...
I’m trying to figure out what it was about this issue number of Wonder Woman that leaves me with a sense of . . . ennui. Or maybe I found it boring. One or the other. Or both. Why am I giving this a “Read It” when it didn’t meet my expectation? Because I thought...
Holy Shit. Can I say that in a comic review? Who cares, I did. And this comic deserves it. Firstly: I must admit that I am not Marvel’s biggest fan. That’s not to say I hate them but I haven’t read Marvel in years and it’s mostly because I’d rather read about my favorite DC...
Perhaps feeling a bit unsatisfied with February’s release of Marvel vs. Capcom 3: Fate of Two Worlds, this past November saw a relaunch to the game. After only eight months on store shelves, fans of the fighting franchise got Ultimate Marvel Vs. Capcom 3. How well did that sit with gamers? Not very well. To...
Coming out of the closet is simultaneously one of the most terrifying and exhilarating things that we, as members of the LGBT community, have to do in our lifetimes. Comic artists Kate Jade Leth and Megan Rose Gedris have taken it upon themselves to form a compilation of coming out stories by LGBT comic artists. You’ll have until March 31st...
On January 10, Square Enix released a demo for their hotly anticipated sequel to Final Fantasy XIII. Wanting to know exactly what all the fuzz is all about, I immediately grabbed the demo and had a chance to play around with it. The demo starts somewhere in “Episode 2″ of the game.

It’s been a long, excruciating wait for those of us that have been begging ArenaNet for any news regarding the open beta for Guild Wars 2.

Dear Dr. Gay Nerd, I’ve been dating my girlfriend for almost a year and four months now. At the very beginning it was kind of awkward for us because not only had we never dated any girls, we’d also never anyone. She was the first girl I’d ever liked, and she still claims I’m the only...
Dear Sir, or Madam, I have a cousin and her boyfriend who means well in trying to help me “see the light.” She is a pushy religious girl who sees her way the only way and thinks she needs to help me be come a better “Saint.” I want to respect them and...
