    The xbox is really, really big. Like comically big. You could make a joke about how big the xbox is.

      Oh yeah, that's an oldschool joke, gonna use it for use.

      Gotta have a joke about the Wii too...like, it sounds like "Wee" and waving the Wiimote around is kinda like...j*rking off? Maybe Nintendo isn't as family friendly as they say! XD

        OK but Mario Party 8 has a mini game where the goal is to shake up a can of soda as fast as possible while gripping the Wii remote in your fist.

        ♫ Then the press says, "Nintendo Wiis are selling like crack", but that's because it's a cheap PS2 dressed up like a Mac ♫

      can’t gloss over a subject like that, maybe one about a blossoming gaming colossus flossing in lossy jpeg or lossless png

    Here's a good one: you should have Mario, but the mushrooms are like magic mushrooms and he starts tripping out!

    Oh, what if you had some realistic characters who got dropped into a situation from a video game and responded realistically to it?

    Don't forget to have a Gamer Girl in your comic. She can do all of the Girl things that your guy characters don't want to do, and if money gets real tight you can turn some or all of your strips into wank bait and charge money to view the uncensored versions of them.

    You should make a joke about how Pokémon is like dog fighting, that's a totally original observation nobody has ever made before.

      Already have that in my joke file along with "What if the dots that Pac-Man eats are actually...drug pills!?".

      I'm also thinking of having real-life references too...like, why hasn't Osama bin Laden left his cave? Because he's playing World of Warcraft! And maybe in the same strip George W. Bush can't beat the first enemy in Puzzle Quest because he's so stupid.

        I would like to point out that the Osama playing wow joke was the closest to being good because it does ring true

          Yeah, but every g*mer webcomic would've already made that joke in WoW's heyday.

    They targeted gamers.

    Gamers.

    We're a group of people who will sit for hours, days, even weeks on end performing some of the hardest, most mentally demanding tasks. Over, and over, and over all for nothing more than a little digital token saying we did.

    We'll punish our selfs doing things others would consider torture, because we think it's fun.

    We'll spend most if not all of our free time min maxing the stats of a fictional character all to draw out a single extra point of damage per second.

    Many of us have made careers out of doing just these things: slogging through the grind, all day, the same quests over and over, hundreds of times to the point where we know evety little detail such that some have attained such gamer nirvana that they can literally play these games blindfolded.

    Do these people have any idea how many controllers have been smashed, systems over heated, disks and carts destroyed 8n frustration? All to latter be referred to as bragging rights?

    These people honestly think this is a battle they can win? They take our media? We're already building a new one without them. They take our devs? Gamers aren't shy about throwing their money else where, or even making the games our selves. They think calling us racist, mysoginistic, rape apologists is going to change us? We've been called worse things by prepubescent 10 year olds with a shitty head set. They picked a fight against a group that's already grown desensitized to their strategies and methods. Who enjoy the battle of attrition they've threatened us with. Who take it as a challange when they tell us we no longer matter. Our obsession with proving we can after being told we can't is so deeply ingrained from years of dealing with big brothers/sisters and friends laughing at how pathetic we used to be that proving you people wrong has become a very real need; a honed reflex.

    Gamers are competative, hard core, by nature. We love a challange. The worst thing you did in all of this was to challange us. You're not special, you're not original, you're not the first; this is just another boss fight.
