    Does the game not allow for rebinding controls? What kind of 3rd world bullcrap is that?

    Several are members of the toeletariat who are attending in solidarity.

    Come on. How many people have anthropomorphized fingers just hanging out to the point they can gather together and form a sudo union to strike? I say "Na Sir". Plus, he tells the collective to come back and be his hands. He wants all fingers present to be his hands. Did he sever Gabe's fingers to put on a demented puppet show?

    Most console games do not allow the rebinding of keys. Most will have 1-3 preset options, but no rebind option.

    This comic cracked me up in a big way

    that said, and I know this will be extremely unpopular, but does it sometimes seem that there's a comic about a new game nearly every week? Who can keep up with that?

    For me it's no big deal. It could be a made-up game for all it matters. I still get the joke. Sometimes I have to look up the joke, or wait for the newspost, but considering the three free jpegs I get a week I think it's a fair trade.

    Maybe they remember this.

    I expected the last panel to be a masturbation joke.

    I feel his pain, my stupid fingers refuse to operate console controllers with any skill either. I'm a freaking wizzard with a keyboard and mouse, but on my Xbox Uno I straight up suck.

    Does the pet store sell ostriches?

    No, but they probably sell dogs.

    If it wasn't for the fingernails I would have initially thought this was a comic for Worms Reloaded

    I had totally forgotten about that one.

    Why are there twelve of them?

    Why are there twelve of them?

    I'm... not sure I understand your question? Presumably because all of Tycho's finger are rebelling.

  • PlatyPlaty Registered User regular
    It's a natural progression, first he had eight fingers in the comic, then ten, now twelve

    I don't mean to pry, but you don't by any chance happen to have six fingers on your right hand?

    Hello. My name is Inigo Montoya. Your father killed my father. Prepare to die!

    Yes! This is perfect. Playing this game was like trying to pat my head, run my belly in circles, and dance at the same time.

    The shoulder buttons jump, dash, fire secondary weapons, and 'create matter.' Movement and traversal by themselves are a nightmare, let alone managing traversal and combat at once. I hated it.

    I am guessing 2 toes got in there after he tried to play games with his feet?
