Well, it's taken quite a while, but we finally did it.

This site is dead. Defunct. It's kicked the (dice) bucket on -10 hit points and has gone to the big gaffa tape sword outlet in the sky.

But, fear not, for you can now find us brand new and improved at:

www.thegeekestlink.com

AND, what's more, we now have a fabulous store filled with cool collectibles from all across the globe. The store is at:

Enjoy and see you there soon.
 

News reports are coming in on the possibility of a UK price drop for the PS3 and PSP. We could see as much as a 25% reduction in both machines, which are still the most expensive gaming consoles in production at the moment.

It might be a bit of a mouthful, but Super Crazy Guitar Maniac Deluxe is one hell of a free game.

Based around the insanely popular Guitar Hero, this takes things to the next difficulty level, with use of cursor keys plus the 1 to 4 keys. That's a lot of fumbling on your keyboard to hit the right notes.

Go on, waste days of your life - we dare you!

The new Bioshock 2 teaser website it up and running and contains some interesting clues to the sequel's format. It turns out it won't be a prequel after all, but will be set seven years after the first game and seems to be far more story driven with disappearing girls and strange creatures.

Check out the site here.

 

We can't imagine many will care, but, especially for the schadenfreude out there, here are the final dying moments of the MMO that never really got out of the starting gates ('cos it was crap).

Follow this link to watch the movie, courtesy of those clever boys and girls at Kokatu. There's even a dying moments video with music by Queen, which might make it more palatable for some.

 

Computer and Video Games is today reporting a story that Microsoft has come down hard on gamers who announce their sexuality in their XBOX Live profiles.

The company has shafted the gay community with a slew of edits and amendments to profiles, and remains tight-fisted with their backs against the wall, citing Live Terms and Conditions as a reason for the changes.

So, if you're a boy who likes joysticks, or a girl who likes rumble packs, you're not allowed to tell people in your profile.
