Scribing a chortling appraisal of Gabe & Tycho's first transversal into the industry they've burlesqued for years is nugatory when compared to the imagined comic Penny Arcade would inevitably cast of their creation in three panels. (int. The bathroom section of a home improvement store) (Panel 1) (Tycho is in oblivious contemplative thought, meanwhile Gabe is looking at toilets) TYCHO "I never thought it was be this hard." GABE "Passing a turd that's been calcifying deep within is an ordeal." (Pane 2) (Gabe is in the process of unbuckling and unzipping his pants) TYCHO "Maybe if it were pinched into smaller pieces." GABE "This toilet is rated for several billiard balls!" (Panel 3) (Gabe is seated on the toilet, pants off. Customers and employees are aghast) TYCHO "Perhaps our ridicules have been unduly brutish before first-hand experience." GABE "I wouldn't pay me to take a dump on my own chest."
Fun as hell, especially if you enjoy the Penny Arcade style of humor though you don't need to know much about the comics since this is an AU, while it is a parody game it does have its serious moments and replaying it after finishing all episodes the foreshadowing in each episode is insane. 9/10, docked one point because they should have made Tycho and Gabe kiss.
***strangely, this game will scale with your Windows settings - so make sure your System setting is put to 100% or you'll freak out trying to install graphics packs.. only to figure that out yourself in a few hours. .... but for the games...*** Flash back- 2008, They're actually making an Iron Man movie? Weird... Russia lets this weird stiff dude named Vlad be Prime Minister.... This Facebook thing is actually becoming kinda neat... and Indiana Jones was fighting Aliens, like a working man do. What a wonderous time to have been alive... truly. Blockbuster video is a full 2 years from collapse. Netflix still mails you discs. G4tv was still a thing. There was this crazy tv show on AMC about this teacher selling meth and Battlestar Galactica is still on TV. Music was all pretty much horrible and that is why Napster. We all still believed that things were generally ok... Weed wasn't legal but then again drugs generally didn't all just flat out kill you.. so it was ok to have a dealer... and speaking of dealers; you were ok paying Xbox to be able to play with your friends, a "subscription"? Is that what they're calling it... hah!! This was a super rare gem on the Xbox Live Arcade store I stumbled on and fell in love with for all 4 episodes (two of which are free on Steam as well) So if you too were just looking for another dead game you remembered like a fever dream... like the hobo meat, the cat who somtimes just wipes whole mobs but mostly cleans it's own butt, the mime priest and just the amazingly well crafted humor that PA had... Oh, and - well this is where the robots that are on Will Wheaton's shirt in the Big Bang Theory episode about the Warlords of Ka'ah card tournament in Stuart's card shop comes from.. they have a name and they get distracted by having relations with oranges... it's a solid game, once you get the timing down.
