Ah, I helped to write and make this, and in all honesty, I've never seen Pure Pwnage so I didn't know that lol. Oh well.. |

Hope to see more. |

Copy Clerk Posts: 65 Joined: 17 Nov 2008 | Haha i know where you are coming from, I didn't want to come across as desperate by trying to make us stand above everyone else. That's why I didn't say what I thought of it, but now I will say i thought it was alright, had some funny things in the one I saw anyway. Though posting this comment covering us seems desperate.. lol |

Could you be more specific, what was it that you didn't like. The humour, the acting, the quality? |
Press Junketeer Posts: 447 Joined: 29 May 2008 | Wow, this was just... drab. It's poorly written, plain and simple. The acting is OK, but it gave me the feeling that I was watching a reality show, the acting was good enough to fool me but what they were saying held no sway over me. I mean, making fun of 'pro gamers' is easy, but doing it well, and not in a way that hasn't been done yet in the seventeen thousand webcomics out there, is not, and I think you guys didn't even meet the 'easy' part of it. I like how the friend is called 'the friend', though. |
