World’s “Most Annoying” Gaming Site SarcasticGamer.com will not be at the Penny Arcade Expo (PAX) 2009
PAX is proud to announce that they will not be welcoming quasi-gaming journalists from SarcasticGamer.com to the event.
“There is no one else in the video game industry quite like SarcasticGamer.com and we’re thrilled that they won’t be attending our show” said Gabe, Chief Executive Officer of the Penny Arcade Expo, the greatest video game festival in the universe. “Seriously, if they even try to come we’ll kick them out.”
Penny Arcade Expo
: Penny Arcade Expo (PAX) is a three-day celebration of games and gamer culture. The festival includes an exhibition floor filled with playable builds of upcoming tabletop, console, and computer games; a conference program of game industry speakers; music concerts; freeplay areas; industry parties; an independent games showcase; game tournaments and more. Since its inception in 2004 the show has doubled in size year-over-year, growing from 4,500 attendees to 37,000 in 2007, making it the largest gaming festival in North America.

Penny Arcade
Equal parts online comic and commentary, Penny Arcade ( www.penny-arcade.com) keeps its finger on the pulse of the gaming industry, prompting conversation and controversy alike from community members and industry experts. What started as a hobby in 1998 for Jerry “Tycho” Holkins and Mike “Gabe” Krahulik has grown into an online phenomenon serving 70 million page views a month to millions of readers worldwide. In addition to the comic strip and PAX gaming festival ( www.pennyarcadeexpo.com), Penny Arcade has expanded its reach to include a growing line of merchandise, a video game and management of Child’s Play ( www.childsplaycharity.org), a gamer-driven charity for children that spans the globe.
When contacted for comments, SarcasticGamer.com’s founder Doc Adams had the following to say: “I don’t see how those [censored] can say a [censored] [censored] thing about our behavior last year. [censored]. It’s not like those [censored] didn’t [censored] a [censored] six ways to Sunday on their own.* Every single [censored] on our staff behaved like perfect [censored] gentlemen and if those [censored] at PAX can’t [censored] stand it, they can go [censored] themselves and the [censored] horses they rode in on. [censored]!”
SarcasticGamer.com’s Podcast Director Dave refused to comment on the matter, but is reportedly preparing a highly edited and professionally product podcast response to the announcement.* It will be ready as soon as he’s done waiting for the Pink Show to get their audio uploaded.
SarcasticGamer.com’s Blog Editor Lono also chimed in: “[censored] [censored] [censored] [censored] [censored] [censored]. [censored] [censored] [censored]! [censored] [censored] [censored] [censored] [censored] [censored] [censored]…. [censored]!!!”
The Sarcastic Gamer Community Manager Rothbart simply asked “But the Cheesecake Factory is still open, right?”
