linky?

altering the deal wasn't funny what the hell's wrong with you all

brawl in the family was really funny, i think the lack of dialogue helped

Really liked My Life as an Evil Genius. Creative ideas and stick figure drawing FTW!

Boxtacular!!

Why no love for Dipswitch this week? New digs and all, the comic was better than any week previous!

Man, what's a fella got to do?

I thought it was clever but completely missing the point. As an example, the humans campaign is 28 missions. I believe that's a whole mission MORE than the original Starcraft. To top it all off, the mission structure is not ging to follow Blizzard's old tricks of "base build, kill, rebuild, kill, rebuild, win" structure of previous RTS games. The campaign will even have units the multiplayer will not.

While I understand the frustration of not getting all three races in a single game, as an RTS fan that has played some of them in the last 5 years, Starcraft as it once existed is a relic. As proven by Red Alert 3. Relic has seriously upped the game and Blizzard needs to step their game up as well to provide a competitive experience to Company of Heroes or Dawn of War.

Actually, you know the fact that more people are talking about this one than previous comics tells me I'm coming closer to another comic. My point, of course, was that each game are stacked to the brim with awesomeness...but what if the story is incomplete? I'm a Blizzard fanboy, unfortunately. Because I have faith each part will be rad, but the problem is, to me, that if I choose to just get the Human campaign, it's not the whole 'story', and typically Blizzard are fantastic at creating stories. Hence, '$150.00 Cheeseburger'. :)

I like when people have actual comments about my comics, man. I was more pointing to the fact that I have three comics a week. And the one about the WoW players getting the short end of the stick is pretty damned funny to me.
