Simply brilliant.
Half way through the second panel, I just realized that you guys were going to make it into a joke about the bugginess of the game.
It was rather well thought out.

Keep it up

Nice idea, but all the comic does is take references from Fear and Loathing without adding too much. I don't know, the comic has all the ingredients to be a hit, but it strangely left me cold. Maybe it's just because the Layton/Ace one was so good last time (this webcomic is really picking up). Drawings were awesome though, could have been a little more crazy for added effect (the colouring is way better than your usual stuff, nice work).

Yeah, what's the deal with eggtimers? I actually have seen scorpions do handstands...and fly 50 meters through the sky...I do enjoy the odd bit of Psycho and Hydra myself.

I see radscorpions doing that weird handstand all the time. It seems to happen to a lot of enemies when you view them from far away. No idea why it happens, since I don't remember Fallout 3 having this problem.

Oh my god! I have a stomach ache because of this comic, it's wonderful.

Also, I hate those crashes to desktop, goddammit!

Seriously, that was damn funny. I <3 this webcomic.

That is the cutest Picture i have seen ever =3

And good job with this comic, really amusing

As your attorney, I advise you to keep making comics this funny. It'd be a goddam miracle if Obsidian patch this before you get at least three more comics out of this.

That's all it needs to do. It's done perfectly.

Is that a ghoul or some dude in a gimp mask?

Another good one... though I miss Stout and the gang.

Brilliant use of a classic scene to highlight this Buggy Obsidian game. Cool comic

 

[Burningsok]

lol freakin egg timers...

 

[Moriarty70]

So Depp with breats is still Depp?

 

[The_ModeRazor]

Funny as hell.
Game works like a charm for me, haven't come across bugs or crashes.
Though it's kinda of a shame that I didn't get Doc Mitchell's Exorcist head or any moonwalking dogs.
(judging from other people's experiences, I must be one lucky ************)

Definitely, they should keep spoofing New Vegas/Fear & Loathing. There weren't nearly as many references as I thought there would be in the game.

The drug satchel joke I've heard before: in fact, I think I posted it here when FNV was announced but they should keep jabbing at those things like the egg timers, handstands, and crashes. How about the fact that speech is used a lot more.

This thread made my morning.

 

[Therumancer]

Awesome, truely awesome and inspired. I usually don't comment on this feature but I REALLY liked this one.

I suppose I should mention that Hunter Thompson is a personal hero to help give context:

That might be the best thing I've seen all week.
