Gabe and Tycho will appear at New York Comic Con as guests of honor photo

New York Comic Con is already the place to be if you have the hots for toys and comics -- but what about games? This year not only will feature Penny Arcade celebs Gabe and Tycho as the featured guests of honor, but also is boasting a pretty decent exhibitors list when it comes to gaming (hit the jump to see it).

I wonder if Comic Con will continue to amp their gaming presence ... there were definitely more game-related exhibitors at San Diego Comic Con last year. It's already such a big show, bur I'm sure it could only benefit from gaming muscle. Would more gaming influence you to attend either con?

sounds like a better lineup than this years. There was nothing new shown and nothing good except metal gear solid 4 was playable.

square enix was at NY comic com this year, but they forgot to bring games with them, just toys...really expensive toys. Lets hope they fix that next time.

Yeah, maybe they could work on making their comic funny instead.

You heard me.

Oh god, they have such straight faces.

It feels like Tycho is going to make my head explode with his eyes.

I live in NY, I like comics and video games, so why the fuck would I not go. Death is up there, but I'm pretty sure my friends wouldn't mind carrying a rotting corpse around. Especially if Gabe would sign it.

Am I the only person on Dtoid who does not think that Penny Arcade is funny?

And those two need to take a lesson from George Carlin about effective use of fleeting expletives.

Regardless of whether you find their comic funny or not, they're two great guys who are very influential in the industry, and deservedly so. The industry needs more people who think like them.

Also, PA isn't necessarily a straight funny comic. I used to think the same thing as you, but then I came to understand it better.

EA are influencial in ways and they're still douchebags. If there's an open panel I may finally get to ask the most important question: Which is your favourite? Dick jokes, gay jokes of Warcraft jokes?

But if you were them would you bother?
