Strip Search site is live!

By Tycho – February 6, 2013

Super, super excited for people to finally see what's going on with this thing. Check out the new digs, then sweat and shake in anticipation of the first incredible episode.

Location Awareness

By Tycho – February 6, 2013

I'm gonna grab Dead Space on my way home today, happy birthday to me; I haven't seen anything in a review to make me think I won't derive nutrition thereby. I'm going in fully aware of any alterations, and I have been vaccinated against them by absorbing small amounts of Internet rage.

PA the series season 3 DVD

By Gabe – February 4, 2013

We just launched pre-orders for the Penny Arcade: The Series-Season 3 DvD set! You might be wondering what sorts of goodies are included and I've got the full break down for you. Check it out!

A Teachable Moment

By Tycho – February 4, 2013

You have almost certainly absorbed the now well-known saga of CrunkBear. The Twitter account that undid her was, to hear her tell it, a "parody" but it's not entirely clear what it was a parody of, unless it was a commentary on how you can fuck your life up when you forget that there is only one Internet.

We Can Help

By Tycho – February 1, 2013

Moon and Source Code are both really good movies, but they don't have any orcs in them, so it's not super clear to me what makes Duncan Jones "the guy" to direct a World of Warcraft film other than the fact that he said it was possible to actually do it. That seems like a prerequisite to me I guess, but I am not well versed in Hollywood ritual! In any event, provided they execute it exactly as we describe, it should be a fairly straightforward process.

Peekin'

I don't know if any of them were featured on Vinepeek, but Gabriel distilled and presented a sequence of these "vines" to catalogue the creation of the strip - a strip which you can see here. I don't really see myself as a... vintner, or whatever, I don't think I'm going to be broadcasting my life six seconds at a time. But I am absolutely a fan of Vinepeek, which is like a wondrous nickelodeon full of tiny players.

Trollmax

By Tycho – January 28, 2013

Bans are a public relations coup; the more public they are, the more efficacious. People love to see the hammer come down. Unless you look up and see it yourself, o'erhead, you feel safer knowing that the placid, featureless face of this hammer is elsewhere, even for a moment. It is happening all the time, but it's become a source of headlines now for a glutted news edifice, so we "know." That's how we found out about three especially high-profile bans, considered how a just society should corral them, and then made comic about it sort of but not really.

PAX East Indie Showcase

By Tycho – January 25, 2013

PAX East isn't for a little while yet, but it seemed like some early exposure probably couldn't hurt: here are the select... -ees. The ones we selected! That's what I mean.

The Book Of Divine Wisdom

By Tycho – January 25, 2013

Because it's rated M and there's an age gate, we were able to go much farther than we usually can with our project for God of War: Ascension. Lookie, lookie!

So many games!

By Gabe – January 25, 2013

I’m playing so many games right now it’s ridiculous. Let me break it down for you:

Chest Intentions

By Tycho – January 25, 2013

"New Art" is Gabriel's primary reward structure in games. If that's true - and it is, I just told you - then Ni no Kuni: Wrath of the White Witch must surely be the apex of the form.

Piety

By Tycho – January 23, 2013

You grabbed the new Dead Space demo, right? It doesn't cost anything, and you should. Did you?
