nygc30_image

Can video games be considered works of art? That’s the question on the minds of the New York Geeks in this double-length episode. Come with us as we amble through a discussion that covers a history of art and gaming, criticism, context, artists’ intent, and Mortal Kombat.

We also finally reveal the winner of our second “Would You Rather?” contest, as well as kick off the third. If you’ve got a good answer, make sure to e-mail it to us at thegeeks@nygeekcast.com.

NYGC Episode 17 – Quackintosh

 

And they love each other…..aw shucks.

In this episode we discuss what we love/hate about Apple, Microsoft and everything in between. We also try in vain to get Ben Oviatt on Skype and somehow relate everything to ducks and quacking!

We also have a new segment called “Where’s Nelson?!?” where you listen to an audio clip (in episode) of me describing a location that you have to guess. You can e-mail us at thegeeks@nygeekcast.com with the answer and if you guess the location correctly you’ll get a cool prize.
