Critical Miss: The Numbers, Mason

[Terrified Android]

finally children of steam is over (or a break at least), something funny again...

 

[Boba Frag]

Your best yet!!

 

[duchaked]

lol the go to song for Halo videos is "Blow Me Away" by Breaking Benjamin...but I LOVE that song

and I feel bad for Infinity Ward >:[ or what was formerly them, not their current skeleton existence (screw Kotick)

That pie-chart is wrong. There's no slice for "crudely drawn pornographic imagery."

Sometimes, in my nightmares, I am haunted by the idea that our worth as sentient beings might one day be evaluated by a superior alien race who judges us solely by the community on Xbox Live.

 

[mechanixis]

Definitely one of the best things you guys have produced.

 

[The Wooster]

That pie-chart is wrong. There's no slice for "crudely drawn pornographic imagery."

It's also missing "Weed references" which make up a solid 50% of emblems.

 

[JUMBO PALACE]

Yes, 80% of all statistics are made up on the spot.

I believe it's 43.7% actually.

 

[PrometheanFlame]

I was kidding, hence the emoticon.

Ahhh. In case the strip didn't give it away I'm kind of humour impaired.

BUH BUH BUH BUH BUUUUUUURRRRRRN!

Also, the writer quoted my post! It's like we're best friends! SQUEEE!!

Just when I don't think you can top yourselves.....you do!

Gonna send this to my CODBlops-addicted cohorts (none of whom are real gamers in my opinion, given that they all own the Xbox 360 so they can play CODBlops and consider Halo to be too "outthere" for their limited tastes) I'm sure they'll appreciate it =)

 

[AngryFrenchCanadian]

I don't know. I feel like Critical Miss is gaming comic strip equivalent of the Daily Show, as in it's not always funny, but it makes a very good commentary about the behaviour of a certain group of people. It doesn't have to be absolutely funny every time to be interesting.

 

[Loonerinoes]

So I guess now we finally know the truth. Activision is using its massive profits to clone a goddamn dinasour!

Good statistics and numbers though! They do a credit to the internet.

 

[superbatranger]

Oh, sweet puppies, this one made me laugh...especially the bit about the videos...

You now have that song stuck in your head. For life.

 

[BehattedWanderer]

Humble? I think not. One laugh acquired for you!

 

[Neferius]

I just cracked-up at that Austin Powers reference D

I must be honest, I disliked the series initially but I've been won round by the amusement of Children of Steam and good quality strips like this one.

 

[Ghengis John]

I like it. Suddenly I feel like I'm reading Time. The magazine, not the intellectual construct.

Oh, sweet puppies, this one made me laugh...especially the bit about the videos...

Same here. I chuckled out loud at how right that was. I think they may have actually underestimated though.

 

[qeinar]

I love the Doctor Evil reference next to the... *puts little finger near mouth* One Billion Dollars!

Ah... Statistics. The science that says if I ate a whole chicken and you didn't eat any, then each of us ate half a chicken. Not to say it doesn't have its merits, but it's funny how it became almost a form of entertainment lately.

would be better to present the statisticks of that in a pie chart where how much you ate of the chicken is a porion. how much he ate is also a portion. and a portion that shows how much chicken that is yet to be eaten.

 

[standokan]

That was funny and oh god I enjoyed the docter evil joke
