That last panel is pure, undiluted genius.

I'm loving the pokes at Valve and them getting Half-Life 2.3 on the shelves.

It's starting to spill over from "it's taking long because when they release it it's going to be so good, people will raise from the dead" into "they're being a bit slow..." for me.

I need to play it. The end of 2.2 was tortuous.

 

[Devil's Due]

Haha, that's awesome. I loved the Mass Effect part, because it's so true.

Does that T-Shirt exist? I personally enjoyed your accompanying commentary. I always do, but this one was particularly to the mark. Although, to be fair to the opposing side, I played Fallout 1 after playing Fallout 3. Some of its excellence was probably diluted through age.

HAHA but we all know game of the year belongs to left 4 dead

Ditto'd!

I love how we get to pick it. I want Travis to pick it - pick the "douchiest game" or something.

Such subliminal imaging there in the last panel =P
Seriously though, get it out already valve episode 2 was painful to play in the sense that you got no answers. GIVE US ANSWERS VALVE. GIVE US.... EPISODE THREEEE....*mystical echo fade out*

I do my best to make sure all of his shirts are original. So - HOPEFULLY that shirt doesn't exist.

(Yet?)

I'm just wondering why Travis is searching for Grover?

Re: Sonic Unleashed - Nicely put. I think there might be scope for spinning that off into a new column in its own right: videogame reviews in the style of a literary critic!

Nice finishing touch ^.^
