Huh, if DDR Mario Mix had a Peach lapdance... there's no way it'd be rated E... and it'd be flying off the shelves.
I think.
Hmm... My vote goes to EXTRALIFE's Xbox Live comic...

All of them are pretty bad. Stop the nonsense, leave comic strips to the professionals!

No Penny-Arcade this week? Understandable, considering that they're up there pretty often. But this friday's comic was fantastic, and topical!

Is it just me or do they ALL suck. When I read those, I felt like I was struggling to find the "funny part". Just because something is called a "comic" and draws from pop culture, doesn't automatically qualify it as "funny". It seems like a lot of these non-funny web comics are popping up...

Concerned is crap, PHWonline.com owns it.

OMIGOSH!!!
thank you joystiq for using my comic! You guys are frikkin awesome. but i have to agree on what everone is saying about penny arcade. why the no show? are you guys going for the lesser known comics or what? the penny arcade on friday was fantastic, and its kind of shame you guys didnt post it. "naughty knobs", brilliant.

Yea why no penny arcade? Theirs was great. Then again so is the latest Vgcats. I would have replaced the extralife and rpgtv ones. The extralife one was seriously awful, that jokes been done thousands of times and much much better. I mean how does it have 19%? (at the mo) Prety much any video game webcomic has done a joke about how online communities are. Of the top of my head i remember the vgcats and fanboys online comics both doing it better. Im sure PA have done it to.
Of the ones included i would say dueling analogs is the best but closely followed by Fanboys.

VG Cats was a failure this week. The bastard can't make a good joke, not to mention the punchline made no sense.
I liked RPG TV.

Wow, actually a close one. I also noticed the absence of CAD, PA, VG cats, or press start to play. Don't get me wrong, i like them giving other comics a chance, I'm just pointing it out.

Hey guys -- guess I should explain myself as to why the heavy-hitters did not make the list.
Ctrl+Alt+Del -- not really about video games, save for that Ethan thought super-size 'shrooms in New SMB is cool. Would not have put it above the selections here, though.
VG Cats -- demonic and frickin' awesome, but not game-related.
Press Start to Play -- has not been updated since May 29th, and about movies more than games.
Penny Arcade -- I messed up here, and completely overlooked that one. For this, I am very sorry, but at least it is still being given its due exposure.
So yeah, sorry about missing out on Penny Arcade! *sheepish idiocity look*

I thought VG cats was about the operation game for DS, but I guess not.

Erm wasn't the vgcats one about Trauma center? I haven't played the game so don't know for sure. But im pretty certain thats what its about so surely that is game related? O.o
Posted: Jun 3rd 2006 8:37PM (Unverified) said
Yeah, I guess I could have construed it as Trauma Center related (especially with the pentagon design -- easy to do on a stylus -- .... hey, don't judge me!). Still, I'm not too bummed about the choices (Penny Arcade aside) since quite a few of these comics deserve recognition ... next week, I'll be more careful.

Link IS the hottest game character, lol.

What, then? Doesn't my Game Boyz comic deserve recognition? You people always depress me. :(

If you want recognition, post a link. I'll read it.

So long as one person Lol'd my work is complete! glad you liked it Spoon!

None of these made me "lol" like usual, but some were amusing. The "Halo Box" joke cracked me up pretty good.
If I had another choice I'd go with the Penny Arcade comic that BklynKid provided...THAT one was hilarious.

For this week there should be an option to vote that none of them are funny.

Where is "none of the the above"? They are all stinkers.

The VG Cats one was a pile of crap, unless you relate it to the 6/6/6 date tommorrow, which even then leaves it as a piece of crap.

I love the PvP art in the background of the Fanboys comic.
