* [[https://www.penny-arcade.com/comic/2011/06/03/now-with-more-death The original design for Death]] in VideoGame/{{Darksiders II}} was a bit on the nose.

-->'''Jerry''': I achieved victory but at what cost?
-->At what cost Michael?!
-->'''Michael''': I don't care.

-->'''Mike''': I heard that sometimes if someone presses on your prostate you cum. I've heard that.
-->'''Jerry''': (beat) How... how much do you wanna know? About that?

-->'''Gabe:''' I like Kingdom Hearts.

* Gabe's anger at [[http://penny-arcade.com/comic/2012/05/09 not being able to play a digital copy]] of ''VideoGame/{{Diablo}} III'' before the stores have a chance to sell it. He ends on a perfect line.

--> '''Gabe:''' ''"I am way better at ''VideoGame/CallOfDuty'' on UsefulNotes/XboxOne. I think it's the increased fidelity and precision gameplay."''
--> '''Tycho:''' ''"No. You're playing against a bunch of super old dads. [[TakeThat COD teen superstars won't have their boxes until the twenty-fifth.]]"''

--> '''Gabe''': I panicked!!
--> '''Tycho''': Why didnt you just tell him the truth?
--> '''Gabe''': ''I DONT KNOW THE TRUTH!!''

--> No, I '''''don't'''''.

-->'''Gabe:''' [[SesquipedalianLoquaciousness Huh. Do you think the anachronisms they've juxtaposed in]] ''VideoGame/FinalFantasyXV'' [[SesquipedalianLoquaciousness are purely aesthetic?]]

* Tycho [[http://www.penny-arcade.com/2003/06/11/ describes their quest to make carrot cake soup]], and his fear that the authorities will try to stop them. From the same [[TheRant rant]], he suffers game withdrawal and starts seeing Venice as an {{FPS}} level. Then he goes into an internet cafe to find them playing the city on ''VideoGame/{{Counter-Strike}}''. "The psychotic break made was practically audible... Thank God that place had a liquor license."

--> '''Gabe:''' ''"I am way better at ''VideoGame/CallOfDuty'' on XboxOne. I think it's the increased fidelity and precision gameplay."''

** Perhaps the best was one long, detailed post by Gabe about the contest, including pictures of the Dickerdoodles and people making them in suggestive positions. Said post was sandwiched between two of Tycho's posts, the first being some information about the Child's Play event, the second consisting entirely of an angry, "GOD DAMMIT I AM TRYING TO RUN A CHARITY HERE!"

* [[http://penny-arcade.com/comic/2005/05/11 Pay Close Attention To His Technique]]. Gabe destroys a guy in SplinterCell so hard that [[spoiler:the guy loses his network connection]].

* [[http://www.penny-arcade.com/comic/2014/07/21/the-talk-by-mike-krahulik The Talk]]. Gabe's confronted with the fact that his son wants to learn about the birds and the bees, but since Gabe's not entirely emotionally ready to tell him the truth he just has a parade of other comic artists tell him in his stead.
