PA comic on Prince of Persia 2 (http://www.penny-arcade.com/view.php3?date=2004-12-03). My favorite part is now going to become an addition to my sig line. "I seethe with generic rage." I'm digging it.

I'm sure your mind was clouded with porn at the time. Completely understandable.

Hell it's one of thoose rare gems where you don't actually have to read their blog of the day just to get where they're comming from.

But the "Time Bitch"s monologue was freekin' hilarious, even without him.

In response to the frequent complaint that the comic makes no sense without the newspost, I heartily recommend actually reading the newsposts. That monologue is very similar to the ranting that Tycho does every day as a matter of course. It's usually funnier than the strip itself. Title: Penny Arcade on Prince of Persia 2: Warrior Within Post by: schild on December 06, 2004, 04:55:35 PM Tycho's daily ranting got old in 2002.
Edit: I should back that up. He's recommended a handful of games that turned out to be total ass. Most recently, Transformers. To which I say - whore. Title: Penny Arcade on Prince of Persia 2: Warrior Within Post by: Murgos on December 06, 2004, 05:06:17 PM Finding his rants humorous and actually trusting his judgement on video-games are two different things.
Much like the posts on this site. Title: Penny Arcade on Prince of Persia 2: Warrior Within Post by: schild on December 06, 2004, 05:16:22 PM No. You signed a contract when you joined. All of our opinions are truth.
Title: Penny Arcade on Prince of Persia 2: Warrior Within Post by: Fabricated on December 06, 2004, 06:57:47 PM Tycho is overly verbose, Gabe writes like a middle schooler, it's like an act or something.
Title: Penny Arcade on Prince of Persia 2: Warrior Within Post by: Shavnir on December 06, 2004, 08:04:22 PM But without monkeys.
Title: Penny Arcade on Prince of Persia 2: Warrior Within Post by: Calantus on December 07, 2004, 02:02:53 AM Actually, sometimes they have monkeys too.
The generic rage line was great, and SO Penny Arcade. Title: Penny Arcade on Prince of Persia 2: Warrior Within Post by: HaemishM on December 07, 2004, 09:00:28 AM I actually dig Tycho's overly verbose style. I would, though.
AND YOU WILL BELIEVE EVERY WORD WE SAY! Title: Penny Arcade on Prince of Persia 2: Warrior Within Post by: MrHat on December 07, 2004, 09:10:28 AM Been reading PA as long as I can remember.
Love it to death, but I do find my self reading out of habit more than entertainment sometimes. Oh, and Schild, don't ever buy a game based entirely on their recommendation. I got burnt twice and now I might rent something they mention. Damn you Sega Soccer Slam, damn you to hell! Title: Penny Arcade on Prince of Persia 2: Warrior Within Post by: Teleku on December 07, 2004, 09:40:48 PM You know, I looked back over the comics the last few weeks, and didn't see a single one that needed you to read the front page to make sense of it (the twisp and cadsby ones don't make sense if you read the front page either). I have been reading PA for awhile, and am use to them doing comics like that, but quite frankly I think they are an exception and not the rule. Don't know why everybody harks on them for that, as I only see them rarely (and they usually ARE funny half the time when they do).
Title: Penny Arcade on Prince of Persia 2: Warrior Within Post by: doubleplus on December 08, 2004, 03:51:28 PM Tycho's problem is he forgets that some games are only worth playing when they're free. Sega Soccer Slam is one of those games.
