Since the video game craze of the early 1980s, what we like to call Pac-Man Fever, video game culture has kept on racking up a high score in cultural influence. Now, video games and gaming merchandise represent a billion dollar industry that surpasses Hollywood.

This isn’t a revenge of the nerds, it’s a full and total conquest. All your base belongs to the gamers.

Within this gaming sub-culture lies the sexy gay gamers, and here in Chicago they are having an event that /puts the meat in meetup.

Two fabulous transgender game characters: Birdo (Nintendo) and Ms. Pac-Man (Midway).

Joining us today are Jasen Lee and Eric Lieu, organizers of the Chicago Gaymers Meetup, comprised of LAN gaming parties, dodgeball games, bar hopping and a gay adult film review party. Yeow! Set your phazers on sexy!

Join us for this and all the hot news:
