Simultaneous combination of a controversial show and perfect innuendo, and then applied gaming scenario.

I've never found PA particularly funny, clearly not much has changed.

Because you need two things to find it funny
1) Some knowledge of gaming
2) A sense of humor

Meh, CAD is better. VG Cats would be better if Scott Ramsoomair would update more than once per aeon.

2) A sense of humor

Strange thing humour. It's subjective dontcha know

CAD would be funnier if it wasn't a continuous story. Continuous stories arn't that funny because there can be no decisive punch lines. VGCats is good, except not only does he update very rarely, he has no damn schedule. He just throws shit on his site when he feels like it.

I read their famously pedantic news post to see if the joke was perhaps contained therein. It sorta was explained there, but it's still not funny.

VG cats is vastly better.

For that matter so is A Modest Destiny (http://www.squidi.net/comic/index.php).

I'm not much for the crappy gag a day comics anyway.

That was bad and they should feel bad.
It might be funny as a stand up routine, but other than that...
The art is good but the writing makes me want to stab myself in an eye.

Oh look, the funniest one I've seen and they had to steal a Penny Arcade joke to pull it off.

A PA joke? Dear god that joke's been around since before PA existed.

That is rather unlikely, but I will go along with you. Even then, Penny Arcade made it a major joke and they used Penny Arcade's application of it.

And still, the writing is simple and the humor extremely dry. It might be deliverable in a stand up fashion, but trying to force it into a 3 panel strip without proper joke set up ad delivery just makes it worse. How you can say that is funnier than Penny Arcade is beyond me. Even if you don't know that much about games, Penny Arcade's stuff for the past several years has pretty much set itself up.

Meh... PA is overrated in my opinion.

So it's a gaming comic, I can name 500 more.

Sorry, PA just isn't funny.

My favorite PA Comic. (http://www.penny-arcade.com/comic/2006/04/10)

And am I the only person here who still likes PVP?

I used to like PVP, but Scott got way too pretentious.

you are all wrong the best PA is:

mostly cause it has nothing to do with their normal humor. I just like the idea of two cops liking fast food that much.
