About Me
Hi,
Names Matt Razak and I'm just a gamer with a Wii and a 360. I'm also really, really, really, ridiculously good looking and a ninja...and humble. If you haven't noticed from my selfless self promoting or my Monday reviews I'm a film critic for a living at a local newspaper in Northern Virginia. I write at That VideoGame Blog but my heart will always belong to D-toid.

Right now I'm working on these games:
Mario Kart Wii

Out of all the billions of words I've read about Mega Man 9 I don't think anything has captured exactly what the game can do better than today's PA. Seriously, even if they hadn't put the text in I would have known what they were talking about since it's pretty much what happened to me. I even saw my old childhood gaming reactions come out of me (both good and bad). Of course appealing to our inner child is just a giant corporate trick now (thus all the remakes and reboots) but none the less my bitter and cynical self was completely overruled by MM9.

Thanks for saving me from giving PA a hit. Sadlly I haven't touched my copy of MM9 since it came out. I want to play but too many other things piling up!

I wish I had someone to sit next to me on the couch so we could both be 12 years old again... So yeah... that strip is perfect.

It's fun when your friends are watching you play and die a million times and they think you suck at the game. Then you let them try and they're ever worse.

It's not particularly funny, but it is 100% true.

Penny Arcade's aren't always supposed to be funny. This is one of those strips that aims more at gamer culture, than getting gamer laughs.
