HD-DVD buying tips from Penny Arcade

by Richard Lawler posted Apr 20th 2006 at 7:16AM

Read Ben's HD-DVD review and decided you can't wait another minute for your optical discs of high definition goodness but you know there is no way your better half is ever going to let you buy one?

Good news, Gabe and Tycho have a plan. Check out yesterday's webcomic Treachery in 1080i to find out the secret to buying an HD-DVD player without having to actually finish that around the house work you've been promising to get done. For the uninitiated, Penny Arcade is a mostly gaming centered webcomic that has been around for a few years, if you play games check out the archives, they are hilarious.

[Thanks for the tip Adam!]

Few years? 1998, they're not far off from a cool decade.

Classic comic fav of mine, search for: spider.
