I once had to marathoned a MGS game for a friend too. MGS3 took me 4 hours to beat, skipping all cut scenes and getting the worst Fox ranking I’ve ever seen.

Ok, that makes sense- I appreciate the clarification. I was worried I might not be able to enjoy CM anymore since I don’t have a visor, an Xterra, or a shell necklace…

I’ve seen those Automata comics, and while it’s a similar idea (robots + noir), Copernicus Jones is going to have a different tone and be a little more ramshackle/comedic than the world they’ve created.

I anticipate some cries of rip-off when and if the thing ever gets off the ground. But I sincerely doubt Gabe and Tycho would let me play in their playground, and in terms of the feel of it CJ:RD is pretty different.

Thanks for the heads-up, though.

Oops, anyway, I meant to post this. Apparently because I tried to include links, it blocked my comment:

Not to slam Matt’s Copernicus Jones: Robot Detective idea, but it reminds me an awful lot of Penny Arcade’s Automata. (Google Penny Arcade + Automata. There are six strips in total.)

I’m not trying to discourage Matt from doing his own thing, but I think it’d be a great idea if he contacted the PA guys and tried to do an OGN featuring Automata. I’ve heard Gabe and Tycho have no interest in doing full comics, and I think you’d get a lot more exposure from something that’s PA branded.
The biggest downside would be it wouldn’t really be creator-owned, and you might not be able to use the actual name of Copernicus Jones. (You could make it the guy who invented/made the robots though.)

@EAW –

I didn’t mean to disparage Cowboy Mouth like that. I was just trying to remember a band frat guys at my college were into and that was the first one that came to mind. There were probably better examples, but a lot of frat dudes at Wake Forest really did love Cowboy Mouth and Widespread Panic, among others.
