Video Game Pretext

It’s time for more Video Game Pretext, staring floating heads who don’t really talk about video games.

Video Game Pretext

Video Game Pretext

About a year ago I drew up a couple of comic strips called Video Game Pretext. The idea behind it was just gamers having talking about anything but video games, while playing video games. Get the title now? No? Look it up in the dictionary.

Anyway, since gaming strips are so popular, I thought this would be a good way to start a gaming strip without actually having to write about games. A bit abstract, but whatever.

So I’ll be posting them here, since they’ve never seen the light of day. Enjoy!

P.S. The main characters are floating heads. Is that weird?

I am crushing your system!

Head Crusher

Future date: November 14th, 2005

The Sony PSP was found dead this morning in a dark ally. The game system was reportedly shot, stabbed, and crushed to death. Dead pixels were no longer a concern for this system as it passed into the eternal void.

One suspect is being questioned. The Nintendo DS was taken into police custody shortly before press time. Police report that the Nintendo DS has no alibi for this morning, and is their prime suspect.

A longtime rival of the Sony PSP, the Nintendo DS became the first handheld system to play games online against other players. Thist swift and emotionless action could have literally killed the Sony PSP, squeezing the last breath of air from it’s young body.

The Sony PSP is survived by it’s wife, PS2. PS2 is expecting their first child, named PS3, early next year.

Services for the Sony PSP will be held on November 19th. Please send flowers and regards to Sony Corporate Headquarters.

Nintendo Revolution Controller - More Secrets
Posted on 10.05.05 by A 47 Danger @ 8:15 am

Nintendo Revolution

There is more to the Nintendo Revolution controller than we originally though. Along with the wireless one handed game play and it’s exciting direct pointing device, there is something delightful inside the controller itself.

Nintendo has long been known as a company that relishes in it’s own childlike mirth. With this fact in hand, it makes sense that their wireless controller would run on something almost magical.

The new Revolution controller runs purely on Pez. That’s right, little tablets of compressed sugar are “consumed” by the controller, creating very little waste. Finally we will have a clean running controller.

The controller will also double as a dispenser, to give you that quick burst of energy you need to complete a grueling game of Double Dribble or Super Metroid.

Knowing it’s own needs and the user’s needs is a first for video game controllers. Nintendo will work hand in hand with it’s consumers, puns intended.

The Revolution is certainly earning it’s name. I do have my own name for this new Ninetendo game system. Delicious!

Come on, men!
Posted on 09.30.05 by A 47 Danger @ 12:18 pm

With news on the new Call of Duty 2 game, it’s time to take a look at what makes the Call of Duty games so great.

Really, it’s just one thing. One very simple thing that makes these games so successful and fantastic.

Pointing and yelling on the covers.

Call of Duty

That’s right! Come on, men! We can take them! Storm the bunkers! Call the air strike!

Go go go! Do you want to live forever?

Let’s go over there!
