" As I recall, my most common mode of death in that game was more along the lines of: "Your body is intercepted, inches from the floor, by a forest of spikes. They bear your corpse aloft, a grisly warning for all who may pass this way." |

BANNED  Posts: 2505 Joined: 19 Aug 2008   | lol this was a great comic, they should make more of these. Keep the dialogue short though, I hate reading super long comics. :P "I'M A PIXEL FACE!!!" That was hilarious! User was banned for: Poll: Round 5 - Field of Four - (1) Turbine vs (1) Nintendo. (Permanent) |

Paperboy Posts: 16 Joined: 23 Mar 2008   | Clever... very clever. I like the nostalgia though I question how many other viewers there are old enough to have experienced the wonder that was/is Adventure? |

I was wondering the same thing. Given the small number of responses, my guess is "not many". Dang kids! |

Pixel Thief Posts: 431 Joined: 7 Jul 2008 | According to Wikipedia, yes: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Atari_Adventure Man, the hours I lost on that game. |

Copy Clerk Posts: 53 Joined: 24 Jan 2008  | It was only random if you had it on the 3 setting, (according to Wikipedia. I sadly never owned this game. But I still have my Atari!) |
Gone Gonzo  Posts: 3597 Joined: 14 Jan 2009     | Holy god, I feel terrible for remembering both games and having completed neither. I still have my 2600 downstairs, too. Hilarious comic, by the way. :) |

Stolen Pixels #35: Total Rewind 2
The poor Prince of Persia rewound time too much and ended up as a pixel face. Things couldn't possibly get any worse, right?
