No more 2P Start? thank god.

Voting for PvP. It gave me the biggest laugh.

2P Start was usually pretty bad in my opinion, but at least it was better than CtrlAltDel...

Perhaps if we sacrifice CAD to the volcano, 2P can be reborn from the ashes.

That's a bad idea. The volcano would spit it out and burn the village in anger at our attempt to kill it with food poisoning.

My thoughts exactly. The selection process must be completely random which sucks for us readers.

Allow me to rephrase that.

err...wait, in this case I lost because PvP wasn't the worst one--most people are voting for BitF.

Webcomic Wrapup is so unfunny and boring without 2P Start. All of these are horrible.

Congrats and good luck on all your future endeavors 2P Start. I've been following you guys on and off for a while mainly because you hit the scene around the same time we did. Hopefully your next project will be as fun and fulfilling as your last.

All that being said, here's a pair of MNC comics that missed the poll. One is about Photo Dojo, the other about gaming in general. Enjoy.

To be fair, MNC's was better. The punchlines were in the FML's instead of hoping that the pictures would carry the joke like GG.

I'm a fan of shorter jokes. They pack more punch.

Yeah I kinda figured someone else did a gaming FML. With so many videogame based webcomics out there, overlap is bound to happen. Fortunately, it looks like our comics weren't too similar this time. That should help minimize the e-arguments.

Don't mean to be rude, but why is 2P calling it quits? Early thanks to anyone who responds.

Don't know, but I'm sure their final podcast will clear some things.
I'm sure it has to do with the guys going their separate ways, and Ray wanting to do something other than videogame comics.

I don't know if you know this, but making a FUNNY comic once a week can be tough.

I'm surprised Extra Life isn't doing better, IMO it was the best one.

Wince of Persia was pretty funny though so I don't really mind.

The reticule is much bigger, the scanning is much faster, and the probes even hit the planet faster. It is *much* better.

So, it didn't change much at all other than applying a "turbo" button?

A turbo button is a pretty big change imo.

Hopefully next time around we can land on the planets to mine, since imo, the hammerhead (i just downloaded it yesterday and did the new content OMG so good) is one of the best vehicles in any rpg ever.

Wow, that's kinda sad that 2P START! is ending. Definitely, it was one of the better game-related comics out there. But, perhaps it was best to end it before they'd run it to the ground and it becomes a hollow husk of its former self.

And ya know, I get tired of the people who constantly post here saying all the selections suck. Seriously, your pessimism shows that you have no sense of humor. Sure, they can't all be winners (I'd like to see you run a frequently updated comic and do better), but if you can't find humor in a single one, there's something wrong with you.


Except for CAD. It deserves all of my hate.

Seriously, I really don't understand how people consistently find zero humor in the comics each and every week. I almost always enjoy at least a few strips.

IMO there really wasn't anything that was just totally unfunny this week. I liked Nerf, PA and BitF myself, ended up voing for Nerf because the expression on Pac-Man's face at the end just totally got me.

It generally isn't the same people posting pessimistically week after week, though. It's just that each week sees someone who finds all of them to be horrid.

True. But as a whole there's a pretty high level of negativity from the Joystiq community each week, and it does get a bit grating after a while.

The surprising part was just last week they sort of just sprung the 2P Start ending arc on everyone without so much as a warning. Though everyone kinda guessed it was the beginning of the end.

AVWC, Extralife, and PVP were all funny. Voted for PVP because it has toilet humor. Would have voted for MNC FML or Penny Arcade's Gunhorse comic.

I'll be honest and say I was never a fan of 2P Start. Seeing how much passion the guys obviously had for the comic though, I wish them all the best in their future endeavours.

In other news the AVGW one was hillarious!
