P.S Don't be embarrassed about your Dragon age/ Mass effect addiction!
Haha, I try not to be!Also i am a huge reader - my favs being Stephen King and Kilborn - read everything and anything by them.
I'm currently on book 2 of the Dark Tower Series. I'm really curious about what's going to happen, but I'm also at a place in the book where I'm currently a little too weirded out to keep reading. Curiosity will win out eventually though!
Keeping mouth shut about Dark Tower series. I loved it, but we'll talk when you are finished.0 -
Too much anime talk and not enough Star Wars talk here.
My sons chose to name our puppies Luke and Leia. Most people don't get it.0 -
FF8 was awful, the plot-lines at least. 7 will forever be my favorite with 6 as a close second.
I also can't stand 10. *Hides from projectiles from the fanboys*
Edited to add: Fellow geeks/nerds/gamers feel free to add me.
Currently playing Adventure Time on the 3DS, Puzzle Pirates online and replaying Atelier Iris.0 -

I'm an oldie. HA! I have always considered myself semi geeky as far as have always been into games like Final Fantasy (started playing it on the nintendo when it first came out)..Zelda (the same)..etc etc. I love music and technology...but I do not have anything "I" related. I really don't want to own any of it just cause it is "cool" or the "in thing". OH, and Hipsters get on my nerves. I'm a BBC Sherlock fan
. Feel free to add me. 0 -

I'm a sci-fi geek, I suppose.
Not really into conventions and all that.
Just hold a deep love for all the books and movies about it. =]0 -
Biiiioooware.....
(Won judge's favorite in their fan art contest. Beat that!)
Also, Star Trek, Star Wars, Firefly, Farscape, Lexx. LOTR, dragons and crazy, oh my.
However, I'm a pragmatist, not a liberal. So geek culture at large keeps trying to burn me at the stake.0 -
I'm a geeky girl as well!
I LOVE Doctor Who (newer series, working my way back to classic)
BSG, Firefly, Supernatural, Warehouse 13, SW, LoTR...etc.
Hobbies include: Warhammer 40k, Costuming (refuse to call it cosplay since I'm not a squeeeing 15 yo girl), and ZOMBIES!
I used to manage a comic book/gaming store...and now I work at one part time.
OH...and Dragon*Con is my vacation every year.
(Also, a slight obsession with Catwoman.)0 -

Love some "Death Note!" You should try "Full Metal Alchemist." I also loved "Fruits Basket" and "Fushigi Yugi" (That spelling is probably wrong!
I also love board games, "Doctor Who," British television, anything by Joss Whedon. I always have my nose in a book, play D&D and similar. So, feel free to add me, if that's the sort of "geek" friend you're looking for, lol.0 -
The first system we had in our house was a nintendo. I wasn't really allowed to play it, it was my brothers and he always got the systems because he was the oldest and a boy. He also got a super nintendo with ff3 and Secret of Mana. Man, I loved watching him play even when I didn't understand what was going on. When my cousins asked what I wanted to play they always had to follow up with "NOT FINAL FANTASY."
I was so happy when my then boyfriend now husband and I moved in together and he had a nintendo. My first console was a playstation. First one I bought myself was a PS2 that I still have, it's my baby. I bought my husband an XBox 360 for our first dating anniversary (this was big for him seeing as he didn't have a job yet or anything but a computer. He always borrowed his friend's game systems.)
I love Doctor Who. I started watching it with my mom with Eccleston. She was a huge fan from before the new series. Now that I'm waiting on the 50th and Christmas specials (so excited) I've gone back and started watching the originals. Mostly out of curiosity, some of the earlier stuff is really hard to get through!
Also, other things I really like. Star Trek. I've seen every episode of TNG, Voyager (is my favorite) and I'm going through DS9. Next I will watch Enterprise and then the original series. I've seen every episode of Stargate SG-1 up until O'Neil left but I couldn't get into Atlantis or SG-U. Heroes I watched every episode of until the last season where I just couldn't get into it, either. Firefly. RED DWARF. That is a childhood love that is unparalleled. It was what we watched on our Family Night, after ordering a pizza. It was so great! Watched every episode of Eureka, too. I'm watching Warehouse 13, although Mika is really irritating to me. I can't really get into the more dramatic Sci-fi. Oh, also I watch Once Upon a Time and Glee. Those are guilty pleasures of mine. I was a choir/improv/theater geek. Even attempted to go to school for theater. It was too expensive.
Okay. That's it until I can remember what else.
Oh, yeah. One more thing. My favorite memories include the drive from my mom to my dad's house on weekends where my dad would tell me all about the comic books he read growing up, and that is how I learned about Marvel and DC heroes. Through oral tradition. Like they used to do it!
Not sure if you knew or not, but FF7 (Best FF of em all of course IMO) got re-released for the PC and had achievements added to it, and can now run at high resolutions as well. You can buy it directly off Steam right now for $12. I've been geekin out hardcore on FF7 the past week.. ^.^
OMG!!! MUST HAVE ON PC! NOAW!!0 -
could almost be my twin - minus the bleeding heart liberal - but we can all get along right? lol
feel free to knock out a friend request and we can talk super nintendo all day lol
(oh, and weightloss too i guess haha)
^^ This
But I'm a Mario girl through-and-through ... especially the old-school side-scrollers.
YES, I have been playing and replaying and replaying super Mario bros on the DS for a good 3 years now. Lolz.0 -
My biggest love is TNG... I fall asleep watching an episode on my kindle every night
I'm a huge star wars fan, game of thrones, potter, lotr, firefly, dr who, orphan black, anything superhero. Must always have a good book to read. I haven't watched much anime lately but I LOVED deathnote, gunslinger girl, darker than black, elfin lied. Would love some new suggestions! Feel free to add me

I forgot to mention i cant live without me daily dose of DWIGHT!0

OMG I feel home in here :glasses:
I still love Star Trek, my fav always was DS9 before TNG and I once had a huuuuuge crush on Garak...:blushing:
Now I stick with Game of Thrones, love the LOTR Trilogy (still can speak along a accurate Voiceover at least of the "Fellowship") and Star Wars.
I am a PC Gamer and I am lost into Skyrim for nearly one year now. Also I liked the Witcher and Gothic a lot...
Also I am into Music and stick somewhat with the Gothic Lifestyle (not always visible) which still has a good number of Fans here in Germany.
Surprisingly I never was into Anime but hey that should not be a reason to cut me out
My new active lifestyle of course cut down my Gaming/TV Time dramatically but I always find some new ways to enjoy myself even during workout e.g. with Audiobooks I use to listen to, while on the treadmill or on track...
Feel free to add me anyone who can relate, wants some fun and doesn't bother that I log at different times than the average US cause of the time-difference.
Live long and prosper :flowerforyou:0 -

Definitely looking forward to the elder scrolls online, but moreso for the PvP/RvR than anything to be fully honest. Although the game I'm really looking forward to the most is Camelot Unchained! I donated $450 to the kickstarter campaign for that game lol. Dark Age of Camelot was my favorite PvP/RvR game of all time, and the same guy that created mythic entertainment who made DAOC (Mark Jacobs) is fronting his new company to make Camelot Unchained. Think of DAOC's RvR system hybrid with Minecraft (In other words people can build their own keeps and houses from scratch in more of a cell building fashion similar to how Minecraft works except larger blocks). It's a ways out yet though to be released as they're building their game engine from the ground up, and just recently have their first internal testing system built.
The kickstarter page for it is http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/13861848/camelot-unchained. Official site is http://camelotunchained.com/en/.0 -
In for the geek friends. =D
Like others here my first computer was a Commodore64 where I began programming. Went in as a computer engineer but ended up being a computer programmer and now am a system administrator for a SMB.
Big MMO gamer, starting with Ultima Online, DAOC, Warcraft and other assorted games throughout the years. Been a huge Final Fantasy buff since a kid starting with the first on the nintendo way back when... loved those games. And am looking forward to the FFXIV MMO that is set to come out later next month. Not as much time to play with my little girl so big in my life now but she is starting to sit on daddies lap and play games (of course mostly just to have me ride around on the horsies or the dragons then quickly progresses to dora on nickjr.... lol)
What else can I say, I hail from the hometown of Bioware and Nathan Fillion.
Feel free to send any friend requests. Let me know you are a fellow geek.0 -
I love this thread. I just spent my morning researching the best ways to build cosplay armor. I have not figured it all out yet, but I will try some things when I get the time.
I love my xbox. Skyrim is my current favorite. I also love all the bioware rpgs. I have been hooked on them since they did Baldur's Gate for the PC.
Dr. Who, Startrek and Star Wars are some of favorite movies and TV series of all time.
Weadon is another great. I enjoy watching Buffy and Angel, Dr. Horrible’ s sing along blog, and I just keep trying to find the time to watch dollhouse.
Any fellow geeks please feel free to add me. Also, if anyone has built a set of Skyrim style armor, and has tips, I would love to hear them.0 -

Firstly I wish that I, too could claim to come from the same place as Nathan Fillion. Secondly I will give you and anyone credit who didn't come into FF with 7. Especially if it was with something before 7. As far as the FF mmos go, I wish that they didn't number them. And I haven't played any of them.
I do play WoW every so often. I play about a month, get bored and quit and come back to it again later. I play Minecraft (which isn't an mmo but we have a server that all of our friends play on.) I also play a lot of random free mmos like DDO and Rift.0 -
Needs more Dark Souls talk to enter...0

Count me in
Dr. Who and League of Legends are my big vices right now - but I still pull out my Gameboy Color from time to time for some Pokemon play >.<0 -
Well, I think I've been thoroughly out-geeked by most in this thread but I do frequently dabble in geekery:
- Love most things sci-fi and fantasy (Star Trek TNG, Deep Space Nine, Voyager; Babylon 5, Farscape, Dr. Who, Harry Potter, Game of Thrones, anything to do with Arthurian legends)
- Buffy and Firefly geek
- I enjoy anime but haven't watched it in ages as I frequently knit while watching TV and haven't mastered reading subtitles while I knit
Add me if you like!0 -
Im a horror geek. I love all things horror, and I go to the convention closest to me. I love the Hammer films and I see as much new horror as I can. I LOVED Sinister.
I game on Xbox 360 also, although I will be going over to PS4 and not Xbox One as I have no interest in the Kinect Surveillance System. I play a few rounds of COD every day and I am playing the original Metro game. There should be more horror games.
Feel free to add me, as can anyone else that would like to. Im new here, and Im kind of a loner.0 -

That game was the hardest thing to do :P0 -

Oh yea. I started on Final Fantasy 1 on the original Nintendo system and had owned every one of them up to the gameboy until one of my ex-friends sold them from underneath me so he could buy a leather jacket. I know priorities right. lol.
Yea, do random F2P games right now, Neverwinter, Lord of the Rings Online.
