Description
Another PSM endpage humor piece... This time, the piece shows the aftermath of RESIDENT EVIL 4 losing the magazine's "Game of the Year" award to GOD OF WAR, with RE4's embittered cast drowning their sorrows and grousing about possible reasons why they lost.Explanatory note: at the time, Chris Slate was the editor-in-chief of PSM, hence the Plagas threat to TP his house. Hi, Chris!
Further note: Never got very far in GOD OF WAR, which seemed like a lot o' fun, but was WAAAAAAY too much of a DEVIL MAY CRY-style "button-masher" for my somewhat fragile drawing hand to tolerate. (Sadly, I can't play any game that requires a great deal of sustained, high-speed button-mashing, so my once-beloved fighting games are likewise off-limits now.)
On the other hand, RE4 may well be my favorite game EVAR, or is at least right up in the top five...
UPDATE: As several people have noted, the line:
"...hideous, parasitic lawyers...if you'll pardon the oxymoron."
...should, of course, read:
"...hideous, parasitic lawyers...if you'll pardon the redundancy."
No idea why/how I made this inexplicable error (I think it even reads "redundancy" in the rough version), but nobody spotted it prior to publication. Well, maybe everyone thought I was trying to kiss up to the (no doubt HUGE) demographic of lawyers who read PSM...

I am a big RE fan and RE4 was a good change in the play style. I played it like a dozen times and still had a joy in playing it.

XDDD
Never played God of War but even I like games with more plot then just button mashing :/ Though I am a compulsive button masher...
I really didn't see why God of War was as great as everyone said it was though the cow suit for an alternate costume was funny XD And I only bought ResEvil to blow up cows after I saw the preview of it on G4 XD Of course, I'm past that and into the story now, yes, indeedy <.<
*runs off; three seconds later there is a large explosion*

I know what you mean.
Since I'm left handed and lack upper body strenght and has extremley thin, fragile wrists I can never play button smasher games because you always use your right hand and mine becomes slow and tired after awhile and I'm killed easily. Which is really sad and annoying because I love Devil May Cry...and I always have to play it on easy and it really annoys me because I love the hoards of demons that attack you.....Devil May Cry is not very left-handed friendly DX

Someone would make good money if they made left handed controllers. Don't believe I've ever seen one :/

That was a mean April fool's joke >=[
But everyone had to get used to the standard controller when they first started playing video games. I'm sure it would be way better then trying to play right handedly after you were used to it

I chanced across this when taking a random browse, so I\'m afraid that I\'m rather late to the party, but perhaps \"tautology\" would be more appropriate than \"redundancy\"? [/obnoxious pedant]

I love God of War, the funny thing is that I've never beat a video game, but I'm almost done with this one.
Nice piece, I'm reading the books for RE.

I have to admit, this piece is kick-ass. RE4 was an awesome game. You should do one about RE5 and the people who think it is a racist game. XD

I've owned and played all the GTA games and whatnot. I traded it for a gamecube,cause going around shooting people.Isn't exactly FUN,you know? I guess people who play PS don't really want to play a game that makes you want to THINK.
Also,people make front of Leon,saying that he's gay.I wish I could show you the funny comic about it.But I can't seem to find it.
