"Huh, what time is it?" asked the webcomic wrapup as it crawled out of bed, reaching for its Pip Boy alarm clock that did not yet exist.
"It's 5 o'clock," said the omniscient narrator.
"Why is there so much sunlight, then?"
"It's 5 o'clock P.M."
"Oh no, I was supposed to get this up earlier today!"
"Correction, it's Sunday."
"Oh no, I'm a day late!"
"Correction, it's Sunday, September 7. You're over a week late."
"... @!#?@!"

Maybe it's the upcoming expo, or that we made the focus of this week's wrapup on the comic series, or maybe (just maybe) it was the favored gaming comic. Whatever the reasons,
Penny Arcade's "A Life of Service" took top honors in the
webcomic wrapup.
Second place was taken by
2P Start's Level Up!, while Hijinks Ensue's
Scared Straight claimed a distant third. A special mention goes to Robot Martini's
two great tastes, which came in last place, even though we actually quite enjoyed it. Thanks to everyone who voted, and be sure to let us know of any game-related webcomics you stumble upon this week!

A flood of Greek letters coming after us is just like those dreams we had in high school the night before our Calculus exams. So it's only natural that
2P Start's The Fundamental Theorem of War bring back intense feelings of elation (or perhaps pain and suffering, if you're not huge math geeks). Fitting for us, then, that it had the highest rate of change from 0, or more accurately, it had the most votes in this week's
webcomic wrapup.
Second and third place both went to
Penny Arcade with
Anguish and
For Your Consideration, respectively. Thanks to everyone who voted; be sure to let us know of any game-related webcomics you stumble upon this week!

Let's be honest: Shigeru Miyamoto would
never post on Joystiq, and if he would, we'd like to think our response would be something wittier than ":(". So while we object to
The Slackerz' totally false characterization of us, we are required by Blogger Law to award it
webcomic of the week.
A very close second (as of this writing) goes to
Dueling Analogs, with
Digital Unrest in third. Thanks to everyone who voted, and be sure to let us know of any game-related webcomics you stumble upon this week!

Now that The Big Three have all finished up their press conferences (
Microsoft,
Sony,
Nintendo), we want to know who you thought had the best showing. Tell us your thoughts after the break! (Reminder: Please keep it civil. We packed our banhammer just in case.)

Yeah, we figured the
Zero Punctuation would do well in the
webcomic wrapup, by a large margin. Here's how it breaks down, with and without the Yahtzee factor:
With the Yahtzee Factor
Without the Yahtzee Factor
Thanks to everyone voted. We'll be going Yahtzee-less from now on; be sure to let us know of any game-related webcomics you stumble upon this week!
