*sigh* let's get this out of the way:
"Penny-Arcade is teh sux0rz!!!1!!11one!!"
"Why is VGCats always late??!?!"
"Two comics for one vote? LAAAME!"
"Why didn't you include X comic? Joystiq is teh sux0rz!"
"OMG Joystiq is biased!!!!!" (must always include that one...)
I voted for PA, anywhoo.
Zell @ Oct 7th 2006 3:07PM
I could never get enough of VG Cats.
Footlong! @ Oct 7th 2006 3:24PM
Every time I see that green camo buggy with those monkeys in it i think it's a warthog and get excited for halo news.
qwertyasdf @ Oct 7th 2006 4:04PM
So what's with the Gorillaz theme?
Artimus @ Oct 7th 2006 4:57PM
I voted for PStP, but the funniest part was "I'm too tired to arbitarily vote for PA" LOL Good one, Joystiq. Had me in stitches.
Pince @ Oct 7th 2006 5:30PM
PstP: proof that " it was like that when I found it" is still a hilarious line if delivered correctly...about a chicken
Monsterbeard @ Oct 7th 2006 6:10PM
A Loco Roco comic I actually enjoyed, bravo. Still voted for PStP though.
Jeffler @ Oct 7th 2006 6:52PM
For once, PA actually has the best one! And I don't like voting for them but I will this time
Elledan @ Oct 7th 2006 6:58PM
I never grow tired of Zelda OoT jokes. Especially not those involving chickens ^-^
Hamson27 @ Oct 7th 2006 7:07PM
So did anyone get the Punks and Nerds one?
Monsterbeard @ Oct 8th 2006 12:38AM
The Punks and Nerds one hit so close to home that I couldn't respond. It was like "wow, I'm the star of this comic." But yes I got it. I think we all got it, unlike Twilight Princess, which no one has gotten last time I checked.

You know, I have to say, I NEVER understand why VG Cats is so gosh darned popular...today's comic is a perfect example of how boring it always is. Even the crappy comics have gems...I have *yet* to laugh at a VG.
Mabui @ Oct 8th 2006 12:15PM
VG cats wasn't great.. I never tried the game they are speaking of.. so I suppose thats probably why I don't get it!
It was very hard to choose.. I mean Penny Arcade had an important comic, wasn' super funny though but definately needed! Press Start to Play was very funny.. especially since I've played the game in question..
Digital Unrest was okay, sorta funny..
Fanboys wasn' super great. .but the second comic totally made up for it!
In the end.. Press Start to play did all it all in one comic, and so it got my vote.. the others should get honorable mensions!
bob @ Oct 8th 2006 12:58PM
The dragon tails one is completely underrated. I thought it was hilarious.
Mabui @ Oct 8th 2006 6:34PM
I don't even read Dragon tails when it comes up.. I just hate how everything looks.. so I can't stand to even view it.
Grums @ Oct 9th 2006 4:29AM
I have to admit I'm a sucker for slapstick so this weeks vote goes to PStP
Nick @ Oct 12th 2006 12:51AM
I vote for teh fanboys. Most other gaming webcomics have gone downhill as of late, but Fanboys keeps up the good work.
It's a good change to see Press Start to Play do something funny again though.
