OHGODLOSTVIKINGS
I am drowning in my own nostalgia now
Ranus Studios @ Jun 28th 2008 2:26PM
I am voting for Of Noobs and Men purely for the Animorphs creation in the news post.
Rick @ Jun 28th 2008 2:27PM
learn to spell ridiculous oNaM....
aristokrat @ Jun 28th 2008 2:29PM
Castle Vidcons rarely makes sense, probably because I can't SEE WHAT THE FUCK IS GOING ON!
aristokrat @ Jun 28th 2008 2:36PM
I think I get it now, actually, but it might as well have been blank squares with text for all the use that the drawings were. That doesn't mean it makes sense (why is the 360 being mentored by the PS2 only to have the PSP steal all the games)?
On the flip side, this was a pretty awesome week of comics.
seasidebaz @ Jun 28th 2008 3:22PM
it's a white ps3. and the pirate has a 360 and a psp, as well as a ds. they stole all the software lol
Ghen @ Jun 28th 2008 6:41PM
but wii pirating is way easier than any of the above. I still don't get it.
Neebs @ Jun 28th 2008 2:42PM
Oh my god, this week is great.
I was going to PA at first, but nothing beats Castle Vidcons, ever.
Hijinks Ensue started GREAT but failed in the end. If they had ended it at Neil Peart I would voted for them.
TBK was funny, but not as funny as the others.
oNaM was also excellent.
So Castle Vidcons this week.
Neebs @ Jun 28th 2008 2:43PM
Also, has MNC ever been funny? Seriously u guyz, srsly.
MNC Dover @ Jun 28th 2008 8:59PM
Honestly, even though I write for the MNC, I thought that Hijinks Ensue was the best this week by far. It's like a video games arms race between RB and GH.
Side note: If you don't like our comic I would really, really like some feedback as to what I can do to help make it better. Please, only constructive criticism about our comic and site though. You can email me at:
dover@mondaynightcrew.com
Neebs @ Jun 28th 2008 9:02PM
Hey, thanks for replying so kindly when I was unconstructive there. If I can think of a way to express my criticism in words, I'll do that.
MNC Dover @ Jun 28th 2008 9:36PM
Thanks, I'd really appreciate it.
playwhutyalike @ Jun 28th 2008 2:49PM
Couple of good ones in there. Extra Life's comic is my weekly wallpaper now.
Vault @ Jun 28th 2008 3:05PM
Why the HELL are people voting for Where There Is No Light?! It's not even that funny. Sure, it's Penny Arcade, but that doesn't mean to vote them every week.
Redface @ Jun 28th 2008 3:14PM
what I want to know is why the hell are people voting for 2Pstart? That sheezy is never funny.
Vault @ Jun 28th 2008 3:45PM
Was that sarcastic?
LaughingTarget @ Jun 28th 2008 4:19PM
I was tempted to vote for them because they didn't use a single vulgarity in the entire strip. I thought you could find a wild dodo with greater ease than a Penny Arcade strip that didn't lean on a juvenile use of vulgarities to try and be funny.
JCD @ Jun 29th 2008 7:23PM
THANK YOU. I swear, PA gets the most votes all the time, and the jokes are never very funny. Especially this week, when there were some genuinely amusing ones (Wiik band and the Inevitable Conclusion).
The guys at PA could draw a picture of a pile of crap, write the word "You" and draw an arrow from the word to the pile and 20% of the morons who vote here would think it was the most hilarious thing ever.
And Laughing Target, I rarely agree with you but you and I see eye to eye on this one. Why is PA /always/ vulgar? It's like the guys who write it are like "f%$# dude, this week's comic f^ing sucks. Throw in some f bombs, ya s^%$ eating donkey @$^@^$4 ^#@$^ ^#$^@^!!!!!~!!"
Me @ Jun 28th 2008 3:10PM
I don't get TBK.

I love their humor. Perry Bible Fellowship and Saturday Morning Breakfast Cereal are in the same vein and similarly awesome.
Markez (MKWii 4339-2878-5120) @ Jun 28th 2008 3:17PM
Fond memories of Olaf in Rock n Roll Racing...
Oh that reminds me...
HEY JOYSTIQ STFU ABOUT DIABLO 3, good god, does it really need to be in 10 different articles?
Ghen @ Jun 28th 2008 6:43PM
Yes. Yes it does.
Rein @ Jun 28th 2008 5:58PM
Castle Vidcons is easily the winner. Never heard of it before, but I went back and read all the previous ones and it's hilarious.I liked Of Noobs and Men also...
Mr Khan @ Jun 28th 2008 6:06PM
I also went for Castle Vidcons, though i found Penny Arcade and the Inevitable Conclusion to be appealing also
DeadPlasmaCell @ Jun 28th 2008 6:09PM
Castle Vidcons, FTW... Always.
why not the LS2LS7? @ Jun 28th 2008 6:19PM
Lost Vikings was perhaps Blizzard's best game.
Abscissa @ Jun 28th 2008 8:01PM
I couldn't decide between Extra Life and 2P Start. Both were absolutely great (which is uncommon for 2P Start).
Rob Accomando @ Jun 28th 2008 8:05PM
I am missing something? What does the Lost Vikings game have to do with the Web Comics?
Geist @ Jun 29th 2008 5:43AM
Perhaps you have heard of Blizzard. Perhaps you have heard of their splash screen mystery over the past week or two (check out their main page). Perhaps you have heard that they recently announced Diablo 3. Perhaps you know that Blizzard developed Lost Vikings, that it is awesome, and it would be awesome to see a Lost Vikings 3. Perhaps I have not used the word 'perhaps' enough times. Perhaps I sound like a pretentious dick, and should stop.
Rob Accomando @ Jun 29th 2008 8:22AM
yeah, I forgot Blizzard did Lost Vikings. That's all you had to say. :P
ogvor @ Jun 29th 2008 3:09PM
2P start isn't usually that funny to me (and I don't understand why their always their. Then again, I love Penny Arcade and I get mad when people say the same things about them) ...But, this week theirs was great.
Jagzi11a @ Jun 30th 2008 12:48PM
dudes, you guys have to read all of TBK. This one might leave some a little confused, but the others are hilarious. Plus they have really good art.
Jagzi11a @ Jun 30th 2008 12:50PM
i do think hijinks is the best this week though. I like effective alot, but its hard to judge it seeing on how its a series.
