I have to say I've seen a bunch at this point and TILT is by far my favorite (George Gomez is my hero). Even if you're not a pinball fanatic (I wasn't) you should check this one out. It's the only one I've seen with a bonus disc, and the bonus disc has some really great stuff. The director, Greg Maletic, who didn't have documentary experience, just a love for pinball, is a talented artist, and I really loved the period feel the supporting art gave the movie. I did not know about /afk or Gold Farmers, so thanks for the heads-up. I echo the other comment regarding Frag, that's one I'm interested in, and there's supposedly a Dungeon Masters doc out there too. If anybody knows of one about designer boardgames (Catan, Agricola, etc.), LET ME KNOW! :) I can’t tell you how excited I am to hear that Chasing Ghosts is finally coming out, and thanks for a great list of additional geekumentaries to watch for!

I would add FRAG, a fantastic expose of the frenzied competitive lifestyle of mutliplayer tournaments. Great list.
