This is a fantastic book which is a collection of the web comic strips which spans over about a year. The stories revolve around two young men who are unhumanly obbessed with video games. The results are both side-splitting and nostalgic. If you're a gaming fan then this is a must have!
Genius, as always from Gabe and Tycho June 19, 2006 Mr. J. Boyle (Glasgow, UK) 4 out of 8 found this review helpful
It's somewhat incredible that even after 7 years Penny Arcade is still as fresh, witty and downright brilliant as it ever was. A quick look through this book not only gives you wave after wave of nostalgia (I'd forgotten how bad Daikatana was) but also shows how little the quality has dropped since day one. Perfect timing, word play, slapstick, artistic visions and one downright tear inducing strip make this a worthwhile purchase. If you are a fan then get this, if you are not then get it anyway and become a fan. And in the style of Penny Arcade I must include the word wang in this review...wang.
