What drew you to 8-Bit Theatre? - Page 45

hbomb · 08-20-2006, 04:02 PM

Probably viewing the Flash movie versions and tributes on newgrounds.com. I just thought "hey, meybe I should check it out!" And I did. Pity I only signed up at the forums about a year after starting reading the comic.

I've known about 8-Bit for a while, maybe since about five years ago. I think I probably followed a link from either RPG World or Adventurers! webcomics. I found out about THEM by following a comic posted in someone's signature. Boy, the internet was so much different back then. It was a world in which you could post an entire comic in your signature and still get away with it.

Oh, well, anyway... comics about video games = instant win.

One lazy-ass day a year or two ago, my good buddy and dungeon master grabbed me by my hair and demanded I read this 'nuklear' thing. I forget if a knife was involved... A chuckle or two, and I said I'd read more later to appease him.

Not that I ever intended to.

Then I won a PSP! Yeah, won. I owe it to my incredibly brilliant awesomeness. I hooked the thing up to the internet and started surfing my usual destinations. I attempted chatting. Then e-mail. Do you know what sucks about PSP? You can't freaking type anything faster than the SPEED OF SLOW. :gonk:
Gonk indeed, little emote.

I was enraged... Until it dawned on me. Webcomics don't require realtime responses or even thinking of them. Hell, unless your a McWarrior, you don't need to think at all to get the jokes. And so I took up reading Brian's comic in place of sleeping.

My PSP is like a familiar to me now. As long as I feed it a direct current, it supplies me with the bonuses of 8-bit Theatre, and my DM calls me 'Red Mage' instead of 'idiot' since I finally get the reference.

My friend john who I met at uni showed it to me at around the #350 mark and I have been reading it ever since. It's just that awesome!

I just got into webcomics earlier this year and I whenever I would finish one I'd go to the links and look through them until I found a decent one to read. I got here from VGCats and I've been addicted ever since.
