Long-running webcomic xkcd is at its best when it manages to combine humor, philosophy and references to old, old Windows games into a single strip. This much is clear when reading "SkiFree," the winner of last week's Webcomic Wrapup. Not only does it make its reader laugh while contemplating the harsh reality of death, but it also inspires them to find a copy of SkiFree on the internet, which they can spend the next five hours playing. (Oh, hey. There's one right now!)
Second and third place went Nerf Now's "Super Blue Toad Bros." and Penny Arcade's "Delicioso," respectively. If you've got a favorite gaming-related strip from this week you'd like to see in tomorrow's Wrapup, make sure you drop a link to it in the comments, or send in a tip!
