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.

Thaw is this game any way?

back story for francis

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

The part that makes me warm and fuzzy about this comic? My dad has totally done this before.

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.

@Michael C:
>roleplaying in first sentence
>pretending to beat somebody to prove your point
>asterisks
You tell 'em.

[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.

@Jack M.
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.

And now you know...

No, CS, they hit the wall behind the cyclops which opened the ceiling

So he threw the blades forward at the cyclops and it hit the ceiling? which is ABOVE the cyclops?

And they said playing modern warfare 2 all day was a waste of time..
*whips throwing knife at toast in midair*

Haha that was nice =)

Hehe the little girl who looks like a white mage is cute

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.

Damn Pops, you know your shit. And yes, i want that wizard hat in TF2

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

GRANDPA FTW!

So anyone else notice how massive that living room is?

cool story! i love the way jo ends his arcs, most of them are kinda unpredictable... even though i knew grandpa would do well in the end.

[url=#user_comment_33886]@Soul[/url] TZEENTCH FOLLOWER HERE.

Jo, I award you the Golden NES pad for this comic.

Here you go.

That dude must be pro at the first legend of zelda

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.

grandpa got game!

The more things change, the more they stay the same.

Haha, nice little story Jo.

Think outside the box!

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

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

ZOMG. Retro Player! xD

And so ends the epic tale of grandpa gamer.

Do y'all know what suck the heads means...

@ Duh!,

Well, now that they know that tricks like that exist, they'll be more observant during future encounters. That's the experience and learning work, ya know.

SUPA GANSTA GAMER GRANDPA G FTW!!!!!

@ 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.

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.

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.

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!

That was fucking horrible, Jo.

*plays dramatic western music as Grandpa walks away*

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_33897]@Trollnonymous[/url]: you win my internets.

Gauntlet 4 > Whatever these kids are playing!

[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.

It's always the same, isn't it?

[url=#user_comment_33913]@WUT[/url]: First knife was about to perforate the cyclops' cornea, but "missed". The second and third "missed" as well.

[url=#user_comment_33913]@WUT[/url]: the one dagger that miss must have hit the slot.

''the outcome was never really in doubt''

Didn't old man rogue thingie only throw 2 knives, not 3?

must be good at giving back massage eh?

I love men

[url=#user_comment_33905]@fuck[/url] lurk facepunch less

PS: I find it amusing I'm posting information on trolls and using a "Troll NOW!!" button to submit that information

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...

I still don't get what game this is supposed to be.

I'm offended that a one eyed people eater turns rock hard when exposed.

needs more kids wanting grandpa to play with them

And thats the kind of grandpa im gonna be

Late at night!?!? What are you talking about its the middle of the afternoon....

Player 4: "Uhhh... a little help here?"

It appears I am not the only one who browses late night.

2nd?

just as planned
