Penny-Arcade: Their Rain-slick RPG still has life in it!!!

For all the grief I’ve given Penny Arcade and its respective video and commentary arms during the Mass Effect 3 ending frenzy, I would yummy down on those nerdy men in an instant if it meant I could get a third entry in their On the Rain-Slick Precipice of Darkness series of games. Fortunately, I won’t have to yummy down because I’ll be able to just pay monies. To make this gift to gaming at large, PA has teamed up with Zeboyd (Breath of Death… Continue reading →

Anyone watch Penny-Arcade’s Checkpoint? Maybe THIS episode? Normally, I’m clapping like a barking seal as I enjoy episodes of Checkpoint. Their unique blend of gamer news and comedic wit has turned many of my frowns upside down. I say “normally” simply because I’m not as inclined to support them and their projects due to them coming out to step on toes. My toes. I get that they have to “report” it. I get that they are distinguished pseudo-journalists with genius levels of writing and humor… Continue reading →

So, I guess I had this guy all wrong. Any sympathy I had for this dude has vacated the building. He’s a complete fucking idiot. He blames Penny Arcade for this, Mike Krahulik (AKA Gabe) specifically for outing him as a douchebag and paints an interestingly curse-laden picture of the emails exchanged between them. He also seems surprised that his emails with a customer he was bullying weren’t kept private and blames Penny-Arcade for bullying him. He also seems to think he’s on top of… Continue reading →

Hey everyone! I hope yours was a safe and Merry weekend. For me it was a Holiday of “firsts”; The first Christmas without my father and the first Christmas with myself as a married man. But as mixed as my weekend was, it looks like someone got something worse than coal. Oh Internet Drama… Oh wild internet mill of information… Oh brutally awful customer service… It all has a name: Paul Christoforo Ever have a customer service person tell you to “suck it” or “go… Continue reading →

Extra Creditz: A nod to Videogame Education and Excellence

(One of the few YouTube based videos I could slap up as a sampler.) Hey Guys! I don’t mean to drive y’all to other sites if I can avoid it, but these guys are worth risking any audience. Er, allow me to rephrase… I don’t intend to “risk” my audience so much as I intend to educate people in a way that I have found to be immeasurably gratifying. Just shut up and learn with me. This is a sentimental plug for an Educational Video… Continue reading →

Penny-Arcade: Making light and money of your pain?

Hey guys! Remember THIS comic? Penny-Arcade suspects you do because they have a shirt up for preorder for the low price of $17.99 and perhaps a bitten lip. By lip, I mean YOURS (PS3 owners). And by bite, I mean HARD. I adore the PA guys. Met ‘em in person twice and the disappointment that they look NOTHING like their comic counterparts has haunted me ever since. Gah. In a weird way it made me respect them more because their online personas are so far… Continue reading →

Penny-Arcade: It Only Doesn’t

Preach it on the mountain, brothers! BTW for those without a PS3, that silly code in the comic is something you see when your console can’t connect to the network for whatever reason Sony has that week. An annoying notice that shows up frequently enough that it actually becomes familiar. No, I don’t plan to post every Penny-Arcade comic that tickles me. The thought crossed my mind, sure, but the ensuing lawsuit would sort of hamper my appreciation of their fine works. But if you’re… Continue reading →
