If I was a game designer, then my games probably would not be very good. I don't even know what an IF-statement is, so I sure as hell won't be able to program for shit. That, and my desire for airborne tanks to be included in whatever I do.
Anyway, cartoonery seems to be taking up most of my time, strangely. I've got a few things drawn up and ready. Might be time for me to make a proper comic soon.
Look forward to that.

UPDATE: Yeah, you can stop looking forwards now. It's happened. Let it be known that this is the first thing I've ever done pre-emptively. I know. It's a shocker.
Oh, and has anyone else pulled off an emergency stop before? Probably the first maneuver I've learned within 3 attempts.

I don't have problems with multiplayer games. I just have problems with the players. Anyway, my Live Sub runs out soon and I don't think there's a game out at the moment that can convince me to renew it. Not even the prospect of buying Bad Company and it's lack of a prone stance. Yes, being able to lie down is realistic, but it ruined BF2 for me. There's a target - DIVE! There's another - DIVE!
It got to the point where I actually mapped the prone stance to my right mouse button - it didn't help. In the end I just ran around with the medkit out, healing people. Medics are awesome. Same with Clerics, Monks and White Mages.

UPDATE: Just a minor gallery sort out. The Comics won't be in the featured section. You can find them all in the usual spot.
Doesn't seem to have affected the Recents on the main page, though. So, you can read the newest ones more easily.
Hey, is that an updated ID?

So, todays comic dealt with a variety of massively multiplayer online role playing games. Yes, I typed it out in full. Specifically the upcoming Fantasy Battles MMO and the cuts they've made. This stinks. It's a Dark Crusade kind of smell.
But anyway, you probably came here wondering how you can run, through space, to an area that is actually space. Naturally this was a jab at those new players in games like Guild Wars who ask to be escorted to various townships in exchange for gold or revenge and whatnot.
I would never extend this service myself. You'd have to be a member of TeamSpork before I'd even speak to you ingame. If you're interested, and unattached, I guess I could sign you up.

PS - VIP is actually a very good gametype.

I would bitch about my illness, but I won't. Consider yourselves lucky I recovered just enough to get a comic out.
I wish I could put some more stuff here, but I really can't be bothered thinking of anything.

UPDATE. I'm back now, better than ever and... WHAT THE FUCK! I've got about a million replies from a million random people who have nothing to do with me. I'll put it down to the massive changes that my illness seemed to bring about.

So, just watch this educational video and try not to kill yourself.

Update time. So Bungie Day came and went and the world is all the happier for it. You'll hear no more from me, mainly because I'm still enjoying the new, free, map.
Other games have been consuming my time too. Some much older than others. Got Guild Wars a few weeks back and my experience so far has been great. Let me just say that we have our capes now and leave it at that.
Icewind Dale II made a surprise re-entry onto my hard drive, too. I've always been a sucker for Bioware. I'd probably put them in my top five developers. Along with Relic, Valve and Bungie. The final space has yet to be filled.

Well thats it for the update. I've got a few things waiting in the wings that should be up soon. I'll probably make a few more stamps, too. They're supposed to be a series, and I've only done two.
