Love you guys.

Both well done this time. I can't decide.

 

[TechTim]

I think Jim's got this one

 

[AuronFtw]

Gonna need me a saints row mod where I can recreate Jim with a dewgong strap-on thong. My game will never be complete without it.

 

[Something Amyss]

I always knew there was something sinister about microtransactions. They must be more sinister than I thought if they can cheat death.

 

[Steve2911]

Gotta say, both of these were brilliant. Hats off lads!

 

[Thunderous Cacophony]

Gonna need me a saints row mod where I can recreate Jim with a dewgong strap-on thong. My game will never be complete without it.

I'll fund a Kickstarter to add that mod to every game possible.

 

[Imp_Emissary]

Loved you're finisher Yahtzee. The whole thing was great, but I loved how you combined the old "leave money on the dead's faces" tradition and combined it with micro-transactions to have the character cheat Death.

As for yours, Jim. That must have been one BIG squirtle! ;D

Also,

Spoiler: An idea for an outfit you could get your son!

Ya just need one or two Pikachu.

Spoiler: And if people give ya crap for it. Just remind them...

They do it too!

Pfft... please, Jim. Squirtle-shell is so last season. Wartortle is where it's at. Bigger, more comfortable, just as protective if not more so, and with its adorable little furry tail decor (with matching fuzzy squirrel-ear accessorize)... and not ostentatious like a Blastoise or Torterra shell. (ugh, gawdy cannons and bonsai trees on your head and back? what is this, feudal Japan?) As a deeper blue, it provides some lovely accents for that Pikachu hat, and could go nicely with that Slowpoke ensemble as well (though not at the same time, that would be hideous).

 

[Canadamus Prime]

Maybe microtransactions aren't so bad after all if you can use them to cheat death.

 

[Legion]

This is very quickly becoming my favourite feature, both were excellent again this week.

It shows how long it has been since I played Pokemon though, I didn't recognise any of the names beyond the ones from the original games set in Johto.

 

[kailus13]

When exactly do they do these? The Critical Miss strip only came out yesterday.

On another note, given what Jim produces normally, I'm slightly dreading what he'll make for halloween.

Thinking about it, Meowth pants would be cream coloured. And you call yourself stylish.

 

[Mr. Q]

Sad Yahtzee is sad. =(

And what is this? A Jim Sterling poem that doesn't end in sexual perversion? Christmas has come early! ;P jk

Although, given your topic, don't be surprised if PETA ends up giving you a call. Then again, does anybody give a fuck what PETA has to say about anything?

 

[Evonisia]

Loved both of them, and was Jim's poem supposed to be a reference to "See my Vest" from The Simpsons? I mean killing Pokémon and turning them into clothes was the thing, right?

Spoiler

 

[Irish Soulface]

Jim should sing that poem, it reminded me of mr.burns http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H4FHrzyE84c

 

[gjkbgt]

Got to say i think Yathzee is getting better at this
I actual really liked that poem
and not just as a silly poem about gaming but as poem in its own right

 

[Kingjackl]

Props to Yahtzee for cleverness, but Jim wins for the audacity. I'm wearing my Dewgong thong right now.

 

[RedmistSM]

I suppose Pokemon X has really hit home with people. My friend who bought it said the same things, especially about the hat prices. Not so much the bed of Dragonite, but anyway.
Loved both your poems this week. Yahtzee's tale was great fun, and the pokeclothes are turning into a running escapist gag of sorts. Who'd come up with a Dewgong thong but Jim?

 

[Yopaz]

I knew Jim's poem was going to go bad (or good?) when he mentioned the prices on hats. I was not disappointed, pure brilliance. I also love the game so I guess that might be part of why I loved it though...
