Name Game: #9

[Gaderael]

Like most people have stated, the Cake jokes are getting too old. BUT! I think a cake joke is perfectly fitting for the comic. The cries of anguish and dismay that would be heard the world over if Valve actually pulled off a stunt like this would be well worth the outcry afterward.

 

[Banana Phone Man]

The funny thing is I can actually see this happening. I knid of hope it does.

 

[Irridium]

Everytime someone makes a cake joke a puppy dies.

 

[The Random One]

Likelihood of that happening is way over 100% percent.

 

[Rad Party God]

Portal references annoy me so much at this point.

We get it. It's good. Now shut up already. It's not funny.

And the special edition won't come in a box if you get it off of Steam, silly!

They can give you a digital cake if they want to... >.>'

 

[Sarmos]

My name is Gordon Freeman, and I approve this comic for it's awesome hilarity factor. =D

 

[ohgodalex]

Didn't a Valve employee make a statement saying that cake jokes were stupid? I think he did, and I think I agree.

 

[standokan]

I really thought i'd get some cake this time, why valve?, WHY?

 

[Sodoff]

I just Awesome't in my pants!

I STILL find cake jokes funny!

Way to go

 

[ArmorArmadillo]

There are God of War boss attacks less telegraphed than this joke is. There are pieces of bread on my counter less stale than this joke is. Your mother has been used fewer times than this joke has.

No, it's not still funny. No, it's not okay to FIND this funny. Valve has actively avoided using cake references in P2 just to protest how overused this joke is.

Not cool, Name Game. I'm not going to forget this. I am NEVER going to forget this.

 

[Galad]

I like those small touches like the "glee" and the arrow towards her face in the err first panel on the second row..

 

[Roboto]

You gotta look at it for what it is, that it probably cost 150$ for that box she has. It didn't even include the game.

 

[JEBWrench]

Sweet! More Portal jokes from people who never played Portal.

The cake was never a lie. The prior test subject just failed.

 

[Timtimfed]

I cannot believe I didn't see the punchline coming - well done.

Whoever makes this comic must contain high traces of awesomosity and raditude.

 

[signingupforgames]

(in reference to the comic) because it's funny to see people like you get worked up.

 

[Tinneh]

Everytime someone makes a cake joke a puppy dies.

Pfft, what do I care? I've got a damned cat!

 

[Leels]

I cannot believe I didn't see the punchline coming - well done.

Whoever makes this comic must contain high traces of awesomosity and raditude.

Well you, sir, must be a gentleman and a scholar.

 

[AvsJoe]

Best Name Game yet. Way to make a very overused joke funny again.

I like her faces when she's staring into the box.

Very much same here.

 

[Drexlor]

Cake jokes are way past being funny. At least this one was better than most.

 

[ArmorArmadillo]

Why are people acting like this was some clever twist on a tired joke? Someone mentions portal, says they are getting a cake, and then said cake turns out to be a lie. That's it. The basic of the basic.

I'm slightly amazed there are people who actually didn't see this coming, except to say "Man, there is no way this author could be so unbelievably bad, I wonder what new thing they're going to do."


Really, I should be nicer though, this author is a hack, and I guess cake jokes are a bad gaming webcomic rite of passage.
