what? apparently you posted before Shamus :P EDIT: Yay fixed now. |
Beat Writer Posts: 203 Joined: 28 Aug 2009 | Aww, c'mon, I really wanted to hear what Breen thinks about Borderlands. I guess we'll have to wait a few more hours until it actuall shows up... The same thing happened with another of Shamus' articles. O_o |
Gone Gonzo Posts: 4117 Joined: 23 Apr 2008 | Well, either way, the comic is up now. And DLC is more akin to expansion packs. You know, those things that actually had alot of content at a good price :P |
Muckraker Posts: 323 Joined: 24 Mar 2008 | I wonder if the next one will have a male Shepard female or several claiming to all be Commander Shepard. But good point on 3mill but only 4 characters I'd love 1.5 mill with 8 or 6 Characters a lil better I think. |
Muckraker Posts: 281 Joined: 3 Aug 2009 | was that story bout the post guy real? coz thats a good idea |
Gone Gonzo Posts: 2263 Joined: 10 Mar 2009 | Ha! This was pretty dang funny strip. I cant wait to see Shepard in the next strip. |
Gone Gonzo Posts: 1812 Joined: 8 Apr 2008 | Considering the accuracy of the writing style, I imagine you watch a lot of late night talk shows. I love these After Curfew strips because I can totally hear Conan or Leno delivering Breen's lines. |

Copy Clerk Posts: 118 Joined: 1 Jul 2009 | I think Breen should replace Jimmy Fallon as host of Late Night. Great strip as always man. |
Beat Writer Posts: 147 Joined: 11 Sep 2009 | Eeh... 3 million guns? That is a little overkill, isn't it? Anyway! Good comic. Laughing quota of today reached. |
Muckraker Posts: 228 Joined: 10 Oct 2007 | That's the funniest Stolen Pixels in a while. Great work. |

Infamous Scribbler Posts: 634 Joined: 13 Jul 2006 | I am continually surprised at how well the premise for After Curfiew works. I can guarantee you that when I collaborate with alien invaders in exchange for nominal dictatorial control over the dystopian ruins of civilization, starting my own late-night talk show will be one of my top priorities. |
Gone Gonzo Posts: 1457 Joined: 18 Jun 2008 | Heh heh heh. I had the same thoughts about Borderlands. Also every time I hear the name Shepherd I keep thinking of Adrian Shepherd. |

The entire comic will devolve into "I'm SPARTACUS" related jokes, And silly Shamus; no-one ever reads the titles. |
Gone Gonzo Posts: 1721 Joined: 29 Aug 2009 | The worst part about his comparison of Borderlands to Diablo is that it's true... |
On the Record Posts: 5610 Joined: 14 Sep 2008 | I don't remember many games that added free content patches... Especially so fast. |
Gone Gonzo Posts: 1213 Joined: 6 Oct 2008 | Loved the "3,000,000 weapons, 4 character models" joke. |
Beat Writer Posts: 148 Joined: 18 Feb 2009 | this is getting funnier and funnier,this was possibly the best one i have read |

I love that call on Borderlands. I was watching some friends play it the other day on the 360 (lucky bastards, mine isn't out until Monday), and I commented that it almost looked like Diablo mixed with an FPS with the way loot works. |

Erm... how many expansion packs have you encountered that ever really justified the price point? |
Gone Gonzo Posts: 4117 Joined: 23 Apr 2008 |
Before DLC and Xbox live? Alot, actually. These days, no. Some DLC is fairly priced, of course, but alot of it is a rip off. |
Anonymous Source Posts: 2 Joined: 17 Jan 2009 | I don't think the patch analogy holds up. Patches are still free, and they are still called patches on PC, and title updates on consoles. |
Gone Gonzo Posts: 1012 Joined: 11 Jan 2009 | Haha, And I don't think booster packs, as I call most DLC, and patches are the same, patches are designed to fix bugs and enhance the features already present in the game, if a developer releases a content pack that isn't enough content to make a full expansion of I would call it a Booster Pack since it just boosters the original game but not completely adding what a full expansion would normally do. Still funny comic as always. |
Beat Writer Posts: 176 Joined: 28 Dec 2008 | Best line in that comic: "That's not innovation. That's Diablo." LOLOLOLOLOL. |
