“Nerdy News” is a mini-news show geared towards gamers, technosexuals, and all other geeky peeps.

In this forty-eighth episode of Nerdy News, I’ll be reporting on:

Child’s Play raised over $3.5 for charity!
The Official Zelda Timeline has recently been revealed.
TorrentFreak recently reported the most pirated games of 2011.
Steam continues to grow and gain massive success.

Here’s the new episode of Nerdy News!

What do you think?

Do you think a charity for toys and games for sick kids is a good idea? Are you a Zelda fan? Do you like or hate the newly revealed “official” timeline? How do you feel about game pirating? Do you use or plan to start using Steam? Are the sales a good incentive to sign up?

If you have any advice or tips on how I can improve these videos let me know in the comments! Thanks for all of your opinions! ^_^

I’ve been using Steam since Feb 04 and the deals they put up sometimes are nearly unbelievable. I spent around $170 in the last two months with MW3 and Skyrim being 120 of that. The last fifty got me Fallout New Vegas, Deus Ex Human Revolution, RAGE, two deck packs for Magic the Gathering 2012 and aTransformers game and Plants vs Zombies for my nephew to play. Don’t even want to think about how easy it is to blow money when they have deals. Keep up the good work, Laura!

Thanks! Wow, I can’t imagine getting deals like that in a store. Even buying used games from Gamestop, I would still pay more than that on all those games. I want to try RAGE too, I’ve heard mixed reviews.

The trick with Steam is to check every week without fail. They have a huge Christmas sale and another in the summer. Some stuff is 90+% off. They have weekly sales that see a bunch of stuff at drastic mark downs. RAGE is a good buy if you get it at 10 bucks or less. Otherwise I would pass. Hasn’t got much play here and probably won’t until I beat Skyrim and Deus Ex Human Revolution.
