Penny Arcade has seriously stepped up its game these last couple of months. Their output, which I view for free on an external website that they see no profit from, pleases me.

Whether we’re forming angry mobs and going on witch hunts online or offline, human beings have always been shit. The Internet just made that more transparent. Less than 250 years ago, America saw the public hanging of a 12 year old girl as a fun pastime for the whole family, to the point where flyers for the event

Congratulations, you’ve just given the developer exactly what he wanted - exposure of his shitty asset flip on a major gaming website. Stop acknowledging attention-seeking douchebags who want nothing more than to profit off of controversy.

This is the unpopular opinion. So far most people seem to really enjoy “Detroit”, with an 80 review score on Metacritic and 90 user score. Of course, it’s perfectly fine to disagree with the popular consensus, if something doesn’t work for you then it just doesn’t. But this review comes across less as a hot take and

Long-ass time ago there was a Gmod map which was essentially a farming simulator - you started off with nothing but a barren field which you had to clear from weeds and then painstakingly grow fruits and veggies on, which you could sell on the market and buy stuff you need. 12-13 year old me had a BLAST farming with

I love how out of all the horribly unrealistic things in the trailer (aka Steampunk WWII) it’s a female soldier that’s breaking the suspension of disbelief. Like, sometimes attempts at inclusivity can fall ridiculously flat and be downright hilarious (why of course the Nazis employed black female soldiers, Call of

Yeah, I’m sure that cop was so racist he intentionally punched himself to split his lip so that he could arrest these three innocent black girls while they were quietly using the restroom. What a pig!

Locking the doors with customers still inside is ridiculous, especially at a restaurant with fire hazards. No business would ever do that, especially one with a higher chance of a fire accident than average. Also, what kind of fucked up logic is “If they wanted someone out they should’ve literally locked the doors

Who wants to bet if Becky, Rebecca and Becca went into the bathroom, they could’ve stayed all night long?

The restaurant owner literally owns his property. If he has asked people to leave his property (for any reason, especially if he’s about to close), and those people literally laugh at him, he is perfectly free to request the assistance of a police officer, who is then free to remove them by any means necessary. 10

Real title: “Actresses arrested for assaulting a police officer”

Seriously, why is the part where the woman woman literally punches the officer in the face and splits his lip completely ignored?

Who would pay $20 bucks to buy a game that at any point can just vanish with no way to play it?

Awkward Zombie is without a doubt the comic I enjoy the most out of these. Katie’s Metal Gear comics are a gem.

I dunno, I personally found it funny this week. But then again I’m an aspiring writer with loooooads of embarrassing fanfic behind me, so I can relate and get where Tycho’s coming from.

The technology is still young, we need fast, stable and affordable connections across the globe, and that infrastructure won’t be there for a while. But once it is, and once streaming becomes indistinguishable to playing games locally for most people, I can easily imagine console manufacturing coming to an end. Why

I understand that everyone has their own idea of what “value” is, and that no two opinions will be the same on that matter. With that said, I find it absolutely ridiculous to be judging the values of games based on their length. We don’t do that with literally any other form of media. Can you imagine thinking “Hmm,

They should’ve done what they did with the PS3 and doubled-down on it. Because if you look back, PS3 had the same issues the Vita had at launch - lack of exclusives, way overpriced, too many features nobody cared about... But Sony worked with that. They got their exclusives, they slashed the price (several times, in

Wow, these are hard to look at. I get that they were trying to pay homage to the comic book infinity gems, but some things look way better in 2D than 3D. And wouldn’t you know it, flat, circular gems happen to be some of those things.

Concourse Editor: Shawn, you seriously gotta get those clicks up.
Shawn: But I’m a terrible writer! How am I supposed to get those clicks up when my media articles, such as “You Should Be Buying DVDs instead of watching Netflix”, are complete trash?
Editor: Just write something with a title that pisses everyone off,
