I think the author started with a deterministic understanding of godly intervention, and applied it to videogames, such as Mario, Metal Gear, etc. Clearly, there are religious people who accept the absence of divine intervention. The absence of divine intervention does not dictate the absence of...

Well done. I myself would have preferred a different model of Guybrush, but all in all, an enjoyable set of comics. Don't know how much patience I would've had, if I weren't a fan of Monkey Island, Sam and Max, and Strong Bad.

Remember, it's a triple entendre; that means it REALLY comes with spicy salsa, not "spicy, *wink wink* salsa". Weld one Shamus, weld one.

I like how you referenced that the closet was where they were storing their cheese. Looking forward to more.

To be fair, 2k Games has been doing DRM too, and other PC publishers. EA just gets the notice because it controls a larges market share/devoured so many other developers. If DRM is bad, it's bad whether the big dog does it, or the underdog.

Piracy occured on the high seas because at the time, the means weren't there to enforce the law. Now, with strong coast guards and naval forces, maritime piracy has declined. What society needs to do is either develop a way to police the internet with greater efficiency, or reorient IP copyright...

Depends. Does he just have the Bear form, or the Dire Bear form? Because the latter would... you know... it would be more... more dire.

If I had a nickel for every time I had to run away, or run to my body. (I had a mage.) Shamus, I too had to quit, all or nothing. The closest I came to playing casually was back when I had a girlfriend, I would stop the game any time she came over or asked me to come over. Relationships aside...

I like how you Rick Roll'd the audience. I was expecting the last link to be a link to "Favorite Things" from the Sound of Music. You know, in case "you can't remember the original tune"... I still like Strong Bad. I like Ninjas, pirates. I think Portal is a good game. I like the occasional...

Perhaps if it was a BOTTLE of milk, instead of a glass. Then it wouldn't spill. The vulture could hold the bottle with it's talons. You see, when you killed that boar five levels ago, you killed a baby boar's mother. Fortunately, a friendly vulture was raising that baby boar, bringing it...

I think it's kinda similar to how all the level 70 gnomes could take back their city if they wanted to. But they keep freeloading off of the Dwarfs. Only low leveled characters go to Gnomeregan. Same with why the Trolls don't have a capital city. I think it would be cool if Blizzard took out...

Aside from Ascalon, Post-Searing, the scenery was great when you could look at it and not look at a swarm of burrowing creatures that the NPC party members chase after, to our mutual destruction. Scenery doesn't bug me if it's a bit bland. The pointlessly winding nature of the scenery is...

I'm probably taking this too seriously, but like "gebtheiv" said, capturing the flag used to be a condition of victory in war. Primarily, it indicated that you have control of the castle/fort. However, it also was a measure of civilization, sparing casualties once the outcome was certain. First...
