- AKA Johnny Everythinghands
GayGamer first brought my attention to Eternity's Child, a game that initially reminds me of Okami done with Western art, which will have a gay character. Now they've got more information on the game's gay character, who can replace his hands with various devices. He definitely has the potential to be very interesting (or, if not done just right, offensive). More reason for me to be wishing for a Wii. Check out the graphics below...
- Show your pride, Paragon City!
Hey City of Heroes players! Celebrate your pride with City of Gaymers' "Out and Proud '07" dance on the Victory server on Thursday. The event celebrates National Coming Out Day and will meet under the statue of Atlas in Atlas Park at 6PM PDT. How come no one ever parties at the base of Galaxy Girl's statue? (Thanks to Knightengale for the tip!) Now, to figure out which of my various Victory alts to bring...
- The post-apocalyptic barren wasteland needs you!
Speaking of gay friendly games, Fallout is having a tenth anniversary contest, asking for players to design a perk to be included in the upcoming Fallout 3.
- Street fair comic con
If any Bay Area residents are planning to attend this weekend's Castro Street Fair, stop by the new Castro Street comic shop (how long has it been since I've walked past the Tully's?) Whatever... where Bay Area comic creators will be signing comics all day. Finding gay creators whose work you enjoy and supporting them is one positive way to help gay representation in comics.
Gay site of the Week!
If you can't wait until Sunday to get your hands on some positive gay superheroes, check out Boy Meets Hero, a webcomic that combines classic superhero action with a steamy same-sex romance.
I love creator Chayne Avery's visual style, which mixes so nicely with Russell Garcia's coloring.

Oh my god I am so excited
Oh my god I am so excited for Fallout 3. Fallout was one of my two favorite computer games of all time, and I just pray that Fallout 3 lives up to half my expectations. Boy Meets Hero looks cute, but I have to admit I really was not drawn into the story at all.
Mostly I just want to thank you, Lyle, for doing a Week in Gay Geek column because this is great stuff =)
Eternity's Child
I'm looking forward to Eternity's Child (esp since I just got a Wii)!
Found an animated clip online, and find it a bit like a Super Mario type game from the way the character jumps around on floating islands, etc. But this could just be the one screen... who knows?
Check out the clip for yourself:

In any case, great to hear about the sexual diversity. I'll definitely keep my eyes and ears peeled for news on this one. :)
