</p><p><b>Arguments for:</b>
'''Arguments for:'''
</p>
<ol><li>Strong Bad looks similar to Gabriel and the text balloons seem to be modelled after it.
</li><li>Penny Arcade is one of the most prominent gaming webcomics.
</li><li>Penny Arcade most likely started the whole "slickly drawn college roommates make nothing but video game inside jokes" webcomic trend.
</li></ol>
<p><b>Arguments against:</b>
</p>
<ol><li>Strong Bad's point is that there are far too many webcomics about video games and would therefore not be making a reference to one specific one.
</li><li>TTATOT - Many comic strips have similar fonts/word balloons/drawing styles.
</li><li>The character that sounds like Strong Sad doesn't look like Tycho.
</li><li>Rattling off hardware and software technologies doesn't seem like Penny Arcade. It sounds like more of a computer geek joke than a video game joke.
</li></ol>
<p><b>Additional comments:</b>
</p>
<ul><li>What webcomic is the Strong Sad character based on? He looks familiar to me, but I can't pin it down.
<ul><li>His pasty skintone reminds me of one of the mains from PvP, but I'm not sure as I don't actually read it.
</li><li>He looks like Tycho in real life. See picture: <a class="external autonumber" href="http://torvald.gjovaag.com/TrollECCC_GabeAndTycho.jpg" rel="nofollow" title="http://torvald.gjovaag.com/TrollECCC_GabeAndTycho.jpg">[1]</a>

A comic about nothing (except games)

The college roommate webcomic is a reference to the webcomic Penny Arcade.

From: web comics
Posted on: 20:46, 8 October 2007 (UTC)

Arguments for:

  1. Strong Bad looks similar to Gabriel and the text balloons seem to be modelled after it.
  2. Penny Arcade is one of the most prominent gaming webcomics.
  3. Penny Arcade most likely started the whole "slickly drawn college roommates make nothing but video game inside jokes" webcomic trend.

Arguments against:

  1. Strong Bad's point is that there are far too many webcomics about video games and would therefore not be making a reference to one specific one.
  2. TTATOT - Many comic strips have similar fonts/word balloons/drawing styles.
  3. The character that sounds like Strong Sad doesn't look like Tycho.
  4. Rattling off hardware and software technologies doesn't seem like Penny Arcade. It sounds like more of a computer geek joke than a video game joke.

Additional comments:

  • What webcomic is the Strong Sad character based on? He looks familiar to me, but I can't pin it down.
    • His pasty skintone reminds me of one of the mains from PvP, but I'm not sure as I don't actually read it.
    • He looks like Tycho in real life. See picture: [1]
