Weekly Webcomic Wrapup loves BBQ wings
We need to settle something, Wrapup readers. See, BBQ wings are amazing, right? Whether you're a huge fan of "my face is on fire" levels of heat or you just like a more mild, sweet BBQ sauce, as long as you're a meat-eater, you probably like wings. Wings are great. Still, there are two groups of ...
Weekly Webcomic Wrapup is totally illogical
Recent Nerd Rage and Corpse Run comics brought up an interesting point about flawed logic in video games. There are some games that force you to accept their odd premises in order to forge ahead in their stories. In the case of these comics, not being able to combine items to solve puzzles in Zelda ...
Weekly Webcomic Wrapup would eat a whole chicken off the ground
The Wrapup has been host to discussions on food before. None of us are hungry for burritos or frozen pizza today, right? Of course not! Look, friends, we're pretty hungry right now. So hungry we could eat an entire chicken right off the ground, Mike Haggar-style. Speaking of our favorite Final ...
Weekly Webcomic Wrapup is hooked
With the recent release of Out of the Park Baseball 14, I've found that my free time lately has been drastically cut. It's hard to explain how a baseball sim like OOTP 14 can be so cripplingly addictive. For some, it's a management program that might look just as boring as a Google Spreadsheet. To ...
Weekly Webcomic Wrapup is adventurous
After recently completing Gemini Rue, I've been in the mood for more adventure games to digest. I grew up as a huge Space Quest fan, so a game with a hefty dose of humor sounded great. That's why I opted to play Day of the Tentacle. It's my first time playing the game, and I've been surprised at ...
Weekly Webcomic Wrapup is enjoying cheap pizza
Every once in a while (or in my case, roughly twice a week), I like to eat frozen pizza. We're not talking about upper-tier frozen goodness, often represented by the likes of Digiorno. I'm talking about really cheap pizza, the kind that doesn't always come with enough cheese. I know what I'm ...
Weekly Webcomic Wrapup is still unpacking
It's been a long week. After spending last weekend in Boston at PAX East, a good chunk of the Joystiq crew flew to San Francisco to help y'all stay in the know on all the news from GDC. After a big trip like this, it's easy to come home (as long as your flight isn't delayed) and immediately crash ...
Weekly Webcomic Wrapup is just getting started
We're only two days into our week-long PAX East/GDC endurance challenge, which primarily involves the entire Joystiq Crew flying to opposite ends of the country to cover as much breaking gaming news as humanly possible, fueled by very little sleep and $20 convention center burgers. This means two ...
Weekly Webcomic Wrapup is heading to PAX
Shameless plug alert: Those of you that are attending PAX East next week should make sure you have 3:30pm on Sunday, March 24 cleared on your calendars. Why is that? Well my panel, Sports Gaming in the Next Generation is scheduled for that day. Whether you care about sports games or not, I assure ...
Weekly Webcomic Wrapup couldn't get the job done
As discussed in previous Webcomic Wrapups, I play in an online Madden 13 league with 31 other people. While the community side of things is quite fun, it's still a sports video game, which will always bring out the competitive side of players. Our seasons last roughly three months, so a campaign ...
