First of all, both of these series contain the theme of otaku and its life style. It is a hobby in both series and a way of life.
These two series also contain drama, comedy, and presented in a way that is influenced by the culture of otaku. Both series also has a strange cast of characters of stark personalities that makes the story fluid and enjoyable.
anime/manga/otaku/akiba street and...
they both have a similar story.it's about small groups which they're love anime and the things they do are really funny ^^
Genshiken is another anime to talk a lot about otaku culture. It's less focused on romance, and there isn't any sibling drama, though. There is, however, still SOME romance. In Oreimo, you have Kirino and her otaku friends, but in Genshiken, you have an entire club of otaku who do similar things to Kirino like playing games, going to Akihabara, and going to Comiket.

Both shows deal with otakus and otaku culture around them. While Genshiken delivers a much more realistic approach, OreImo shows a more idealistic approach
Both shows also have traces of romance in them, where Genshiken is once again a more mature approach while OreImo is a more incestual approach

Both series are about a circle of otaku friends, their daily life, and romance. In Genshiken it's college students, in Oreimo high schooler. Both are doing an episodic walk-trough of stereotypical events and themes in an otaku's life, such as visits to Comiket, cosplay, consumption of eroge, shopping in Akihabara and so on. Both have similar bantering humor among the group members. Oreimo puts more emphasis on the romance sub-plot, as it doubles as incest dramedy, Genshiken is more grown up.
