“You want to find an outlaw, hire an outlaw. You want to find a Dunkin’ Donuts, call a cop.” – Leonard Smalls, Raising Arizona Take a collection of individuals connected in the most tenuous of ways, throw in something that they want, concoct an ill-conceived plan, then toss in some unfortunate circumstances. Bring to a [...]
The Second Volley in the Geekcentricity Console Wars… About a week ago, my friend and fellow Geekcentricity writer Jonathan wrote a nifty little post about the gaming consoles he owns and why he chose them. He had some excellent things to say about his chosen systems. He also had a few things to say about [...]
In light of my co-geekcentricity-writer Jason (the grand @LORDNOAR on Twitter) recently tweeting of his despair concerning the new $2 hike in XboxLive fees, I felt the need to weigh in on the console issue. So Mr. Noar, this one’s for you. Sometimes I fall behind on trends. I like to weigh my options, do [...]
This past Friday was date night. And as you may have noticed I am married to a full-on Geek. So what did our date night consist of? The Expendables and Pinkberry. That’s right ladies and gentlemen. Drink it in. My wife is a nurse, hot, a geek, and likes movies like Kill Bill, Battle Royal, [...]
So, I’m Carmen. I’ve been lurking on Geekcentricity for awhile but haven’t taken the time to write anything. I figured I should probably start, so here’s my first post! It’s just a quickie (har har). In July, three of my friends and I decided it would be a great idea to take a two-day trip [...]

When I was talking to people about going to see Inception, in the days prior to actually watching the movie, I was greeted with a [...]
A few weeks ago, I brought you the first Geekcentric video game review. I am please to welcome you to the second in my ongoing series of Geekcentric video game reviews. This one is the new espionage rpg Alpha Protocol by Obsidian Entertainment/Sega. A Geekcentric Review: Alpha Protocol Edition I’ve been waiting… anticipating Alpha Protocol [...]
Yesterday afternoon I finished Alan Wake. As most of my regular readers know, I am a horror junkie. I love all things horror (okay, so all quality things), be it novels, short stories, video games or movies (though I’m not too keen on random and gratuitous splatters of gore). I know this game fits more [...]
I don’t plan on making a habit of promoting businesses here on Geekcentricity, but earlier this week, I discovered a new place to eat. Now, I know it’s only a hot dog place, but it has that intangible ingredient that makes a place stick out from the pack. When the girl behind the counter told [...]
