In the comments of this post, BeckoningChasm points us to Spamusement, a webcomic that takes the titles of email spam and turns them into amusing cartoons. We’ve all seen emails with stupid titles like “It’s cheating, but it works!“, or “Your Life Ins. Company PRAYS you will NEVER SEE this“
Brilliant stuff. A few of my favorites so far:
Women change your life
Personalized Letters from Santa
Amazing Software Types While You Talk
And the best for last:
Dead or Alive 5 Last Round
I'm not surprised a fighting game has an absurd story. I just can't figure out why they bothered with the story at all.
The Best of 2012
My picks for what was important, awesome, or worth talking about in 2012.
Programming Language for Games
Game developer Jon Blow is making a programming language just for games. Why is he doing this, and what will it mean for game development?
Blistering Stupidity of Fallout 3
Yeah, this game is a classic. But the story is idiotic, incoherent, thematically confused, and patronizing.
Revisiting a Dead Engine
I wanted to take the file format of a late 90s shooter and read it in modern-day Unity. This is the result.
It’s frequently quite hard to breathe after reading some of Steven’s work, my lungs are just exhausted from laughing so hard.
It’s also fun to contribute to the forums, as it makes one actively check spam for possibilities…
Thanks for the link, very funny stuff. I should mention that I started reading your blog due to the DM of the Rings comic, which I highly enjoy.
