Penny Arcade: Best of Year One

In honor of Penny Arcade celebrating their 5 year anniversary, I am running a poll to determine the best comic. I wanted to do one single poll, but there is too much funny to compress into one poll. This poll will be open for exactly 7 days after this post. The comic with the most votes will move on to the finals. Simple enough, eh?

This is a comparison, so pick the one you think is the best amoung the choices. No threadcrapping!

I just hope one day my grandchildren will get to play DNF.

Why would anyone thread crap on this? Those things are cracking me up, either I am easily amused or some people have no sense of humor

I admit that I really laugh at Penny Arcade almost half the time. That said, I didn't really like any of these choices.

But I'll definitely buy a Penny Arcade book/comic if I ever see it.

The only one even remotely funny was the WC3 one.

Paging PixyJunket...

I read all of these cartoons; and my opinion of Penny Arcade, incredibly, has dropped even lower than before.

I'm voting for "Patch Parade" - for the sole reason that it makes absolutely no sense and doesn't even make an attempt at humor. I'll give it the benefit of the doubt and assume it's just way over my head...

Well, just to be sure that it's really bottomed out, be sure to check this week's edition.

I agree. Can't go wrong with things going up people's butts!

The only other one i liked was the Halo one. The others... were quite lame.

I don't get it. They saying customer service basically does that to you? Once again, their comic fails to get even a mild chuckle out of me.

I thought the Halo one was one of the lamest of the bunch. So he's choking the chicken to the games engine? Wow, I can't....stop....laughing....

Some of the threadcrap posts have been hidden.

Okay, if you have nothing to contribute here, just move on ... (and don't post something stupid like, "I have nothing to contribute here so just moving on ..." either ).

I'd like to change my vote to the present week's cartoon.

Now that is some funny stuff.
