I'm pretty sure food stamps aren't actually stamps anymore. They come in the form of EBT cards (Electronic Benefit Transfer cards), sorta like a credit card. So this comic isn't entirely accurate. *The more you know*

Let's just say all the people in the world just vanish into thin air. Depending on the kind of person you are, you'll probably either freak out (and maybe off yourself), or have a crazy awesome time. Either way, after some time the surprise will wear off. There's not much you haven't done, so...

So THESE are are the mantis men Cave Johnson was talking about. Who knew they worked for Activision...

Bioshock 1 is severely overrated. It's one of the best games of this gen, but it's still overrated. Combat was a bit-above-average at best. Ammo was too prevalent (minor gripe). The post-climax story falls very much flat, especially the ending (although I liked playing as a Big Daddy...

Nah, the reason Guitar Hero failed to sell was because they could only sell so many $80 plastic instruments. Pure video games, however, have much more longevity. Hell, just look at sports games. Hence my skepticism that COD and AssCreed will lose significant sales. Perhaps a drop in review...

Great article! There's plenty more to cover though; do a part two!

Are you serious?! I can't believe this is happening again. The title of this article is sensationalist, designed only to attract angered readers rather than to convey information. Nowhere in the article does it say that Ubisoft says, QUOTE, "Gamers just don't understand the Wii U" or anything...

After the Steam apocalypse arc, the secret Link date arc, and this one, I gotta say, this is probably my favorite webcomic. Erin is a great, relatable character, and the things she gets herself into are both ridiculous and awesome. Not to mention, the art is seriously top-notch. Thank you Grey...

Apparantly, Miyamoto is planning on doing just that. Remember that whole debacle where people thought he was stepping down, when in actuality he was simply moving off of larger titles to begin work on some new IPs of his own? (link below) http://wii.ign.com/articles/121/1214255p1.html...

I can see how Sakurai's quote does suggest some degree of arrogance - it can definitely be interpreted as a "Suck it up and play it right" statement. My frustration with this article is not that it addresses this legitimate concern, but that the author puts this particular part of the interview...

Please, don't think that I'm saying IGN is a better news website than The Escapist. I don't go to IGN, so I don't know the quality of their news, and from what other people tend to say, it seems like people have a generally negative opinion of IGN. When I say "IGN posted the real story," I'm...

I would not have titled it, because this story does not even deserve to be published at all. It is not news. It doesn't tell us anything we can't figure out for ourselves, or that we don't know already. Look at the source of this article, which is provided at the bottom of the story...

Woah, hold on! Nintendo is not saying "You're playing it wrong." Nowhere in the article does Nintendo say anything along those lines. It's recommending a different style of play, not outright attacking players' choices. While the title of this article isn't an outright lie (although by writing...

"I think it's never a bad day to over-analyze shit so let's get started." -Yahtzee I'm going to remember this quote.

That's not necessarily true. Prices fall naturally in order to attract more purchases from people who are less able to spend the high initial price. Some people are able to pay $60, and those people will buy the games at launch at full price. Some people won't be willing to do so, only buying...
