I got my father to play a next gen game with me. "Demon souls, no less"

He actually kicked ass and took names. Lesson learned: Fathers/Grandfathers are badass.

I think that KRIT is an asshole, Michael C is an idiot, and everyone remarking upon Michael C should shoot themselves. *shoots self*

Very nice story, things like this more often would be welcome, though a return to the sniper or pyro arc soon would be nice, as the pyro arc brings a happy ending involving a burning and blugeoned spy.

@Micheal C

Yeah because, you know, Roleplaying to beat someone up using weapons is SO mature.

Also, MW2 is for babies.

[url=#user_comment_34001]@KRITRAWKITZ[/url] *shoves crowbar up rear end, then stabs knife into both eyes, finishes with bullets to the crotch* There. Used all three. Now take the macho shit somewhere else. =P Jo, this was a great one. Loved the way gramps sees the same thing they are, just not in the same graphic style.

Sorry to tell ya this- oh wait, I'm not. But you WISH you had that much experience with a knife, nevertheless throwing them. Now drop your stupid fucking knife, and get a REAL gun.
Let me explain:
Knife<Gun<Crowbar.

I suspect gramps used to play during the pre-crash era when salarymen used to go to arcades during break or after work.

Your moves counted when there were quarters on the line.

Good point. Some game mechanics/strategies haven't changed at all despite the advances in graphics in home consoles.

This was absolutely wonderful, Jo. It's like a callback to your previous comics; no words, no in-your-face fanservice, and letting the pictures tell the story.

Please do more like this.

Old games gave you better reflexes. And memory. Especially the shooters!

I'm thinking Gramps had a Master System or a NES somewhere

@ Mujaki,

Ya play one Zelda you've played every knockoff since, am I right? Even with new four player co-op. If you though an AI fairy yelling "hey listen" was bad, wait until its three little kids on Live.
over 13 years ago
In addition, since this IS a trick boss, it's possible the three kids had no idea what to do to defeat it, and now that he's beaten, they can go on with the game. It happens. Especially in certain types of games.
over 13 years ago
I suspect Grandpa here of being a gamer from the Atari era. But more than that, I suspect he was actually already past the "typical gamer" age when he started playing, and has been playing games with his kids for a long, long time now. Hence, him knowing about trick bosses like this.
Duh!
over 13 years ago
So, the kids that already failed at this level and only got through because of gramps help are going to keep on playing without him so they can keep on failing? Makes sense!

Nice comeback from Gramps' "fails" and a fitting end. Not sure why he's that old though, most people who played the NES as a child would be, what, around 30 now? Well, I was born in the days of the SNES, so I wouldn't know. Nice little arc, liked all the references to both old and new games.

[url=#user_comment_33918]@freshmeatt[/url]: Yep, it's ALWAYS the same. And it just goes to show... They're always going to keep pushing out remakes, milking the cash-cow sequels. Original ideas are too risky, they'll never make a guaranteed profit.

Wikipedia on Trolls:
... In Scandinavian fairy tales trolls sometimes turn to stone if exposed to sunlight, a myth generally attributed to pareidolia found in naturally eroded rock outcroppings...
