Additional applause for appropriate use of lens flare.
for the time being i'm assuming this is about killzone2 which i haven't played but i guess they like it a lot?
Also, is that supposed to be Moses or something?
Also so all the posts on the first god damn page aren't retards asking for an explanation:
Panel 1: A slave dragging a heavy brick to build the pyramids. The brick is amusingly replaced with a PS3.
Panel 2: Moses calling on god to prove to his beleaguered people that there is hope, there is a promised land. A chuckle-inducing Helghast mask has been placed upon his head.
Panel 3: Parting the Red Sea. The sea of X-Boxes. They are red because it's that time of the month.
I'm actually a jew?
Need some stuff designed or printed? I can help with that.
I'm sorry you had to find out like this. Me and your mother just thought you should know.
Only way you'd be able to afford one
THIS IS SOME EDGY MATERIAL, FOLKS
But it is purrty indeed.
bwanie it is a metaphor for the toil of PS3 owners in the early days when games of such quality made themselves known only to the most pious of believers. In the PS3's first year, when the 360 was awash in quality exclusives including GoW, there were only 2-3 exclusives worth playing; those exclusives weren't system sellers by any means. The rest was cross-console garbage. Games like Heavenly Sword, Ratchet & Clank and Uncharted didn't start coming out until Q3 2007.
Thank you, thank you
not my point, but still a good explanation of the comic.
My initial confusion was that the slaves are dragging around ps3's. If i enslave someone you can bet your ass it will be MY preferred hilariously oversized console they'll be dragging around, not their own.
to part the red ring of death sea and bring our people to freedom and bla bla bla Sony is so fucking pumped for this [strike]Halo[/strike]bad-game-streak killer
According to Gamerankings KZ2 is just below Chrono Cross and just above Rock Band.
Metacritic places it just below CoD4 and just above Bioshock PS3 version.
I'd say it's in pretty good company
But every game released for the PS3 has been advertised as such and this is the first comic they made wherein they're showing the game as such
hmmm. interesting.
hmmmm. interestinger
And now you have to walk the desert for 40 years because you looked into buying a 360.
It's a nice touch that all the xbox have red rings of death.
red ring sea
I mean the only console I own is a Wii and it's not even hooke up.
PC gaming is still where it's at, yo's.
But I mean the point remains that pretty much every big-budget title that has come out for PS3 has been a "JUST WAIT IT'LL SHOW YOU ALL" and this one's actually getting reviewed not poorly and will probably sell pretty damn well. It's probably not going to turn the console around, but at least it's not Lair
And then Moses was the Helghasts.
I vagueley remember it having to do something with a doom fanfic but i'm not too sure about that.
Anyone who did not fully understand it immediately deserves savage beatings
your guess is way wrong, brosephine
I will bet you top dollar the news post is going to have some intense verbiage from our man Tycho. I would go as far as "orotund".
Good work if you're reading this, man
Rock Band DLC | GW:OttW - arrcd | WLD - Thortar
yeah, i didn't know it was getting such good reviews. didn't even know it was coming out already, actually.
so, whoops i guessss
Yes sir, it is indeed the fantastic reveal in the doom fanfic.
if it turns out you're right, boy will my face be red
oh my god i'm pissing my pants over here. Thank you TBH for posting that.
