Comcasdick

"Oh Fulpie, you crazy stallion"

submission: Comcasdick
date: February 2, 2009

Your wacky take on the Superbowl ads was about right.
I hate that commercial though, it's dreadful and I see it here all the time.
Always figured that turtle was looking at porn though, spot on.

Left 4 Speed

"Honestly? I like it more than the game!"

submission: Left 4 Speed
date: February 1, 2009

First off, I loved the style. Looked like an Awesome cartoon, but more fluid and a little more detailed. The jokes were fast and hilarious, and justify the "Left4Speed" name. It might be a little too fast sometimes, but that's inconsequential given the overall quality of the flash.

The pace of it was about as fast as it is in-game. Things are going too fast to really react sometimes, and before you know it shit gets crazy. Nice play on the characters too.

Keep up the great work, hope to see more from you soon!

Zombie Invasion No. 2691

"Art was poor, writing excellent."

date: January 29, 2009

At first I thought basically what the executive at the end thought "Oh great, another zombie flash" with the poor art, terrible dialogue, and ridiculous situation. Only when one character said something like "I'm pulling this katana out of my pants" did I realize this flash for what it is: solid satire.

Incredible so-bad-they're-good one liners really got this flash going, and the sense of humor is what kept it moving. The art and animation were stiff and sloppy, but I think that really lent itself to the humor. Nice jabs at Madness and stick figures by the way.

The bit on how to get on the front page was depressingly true. At least they weren't sprites though, right? Work on your art next, as the writing is already rock solid. Keep up the good work!

From Player to Playa

"As a user of VLC, I loved this"

date: January 26, 2009

Simple, clean, but good looking graphics, and excellent voice acting really made this stand out. Always love to hear Egoraptor's work, Awesome series or not.

I had problems getting Windows Media Player codecs way back when, and the lack of such led me to VLC. I think for people without it this will be a whole lot less funny, but I loved it.

Great work, hoping to see something more substantial in the future. These trailers are funny, but it always helps to have something with a little more meat to it. Keep it up!

Zone of the Awesome

"Nice one"

date: January 20, 2009

I loved Zone of the Enders, and remember it fondly. The part where he killed one enemy and it was game over really made me laugh, since the game was about 5 hours long. Also, the part with the scrolling Wikipedia page on Nikolai Tesla was absolutely hilarious.

Art was better than most "awesome" tributes here on Newgrounds, especially during the parts where Jehuty (I think that's the robot's name) slashed apart that enemy. Animation was a little stiff during dialogue, but smooth during combat and actions.

Sound quality was unfortunately low. Invest in a better microphone, since the current one produces a lot of white noise. Sounds and music were well done and well chosen though. Glad someone else here likes Megadeth! Nice reference with the "Hangar 18" bit too.

Good "Awesome" tributes are few and far between. This is one of the choice few NOT made by Egoraptor that I'd actually recommend! A solid script, funny jokes, good art and decent animation make this a winner. Recommended for the Awesome collection, keep up the good work!

1st Para. If you right click and hit forward, right about the time it says "FUCK EDISON!" and keep hitting forward to the frame right before it cuts to Hideo, it gives an explanation why that wiki article is there in the first place. I'm glad you lol'd!

2nd Para. It was stiff during dialogues almost ENTIRELY because of the deadlines, and if I was going to put a dash of flare to show that I'm capable of doing so, it wouldn't been during the action parts, naturally. But I made a lot of mistakes in the development of ZOA that I learned from after the fact, so hopefully I'll never be that pressed to cut such HUGE corners in future projects.

3rd Para. Yep. Getting a new microphone is definitely on the "to-buy" list after this one. I recorded it all off the headset I use to play first person shooters on, so it's not exactly studio. lol
And Fuck yes, Megadeth. The Hangar 18 reference is what I like to call "foreshadowing"

4th Para. Thanks for the recommendation, thanks for watching, being honest, and thank you for this badass review! VOTING FI-...oh...wait...I can't vote on reviews...I'll just click that little green box instead. :D

$00pah NiN10Doh!

"Enjoyable enough"

submission: $00pah NiN10Doh!
date: January 4, 2009

While I found this enjoyable for the most part, it just didn't "grab" me. Few segments really stood out like in the first one, or even the "Brawl Taunts" cartoons. Humor-wise, the only segments I really laughed out loud at were the part at the end with Egoraptor as solid snake, just because he was so over the top, and a few snickers here and there.

Art wise, however, this is pretty mind blowing. John and Richie's parts are especially attention grabbing, as the art is really, really damn good. The humor, however, just isn't there. Instead, there's just buckets and buckets of fan service. I like a bit as much as anyone else, but there has to be some humor around it. The whole idea of Pokemon Snap basically being a porno shoot is a funny one, but the joke just went too far for it to be funny anymore.

However, I am still a big fan of many of the participating artists in this flash. I love your work, but I really hope the emphasis can go back to writing. Graphics are beautiful, but it's the humor and story that really make people enjoy a flash.

Portal Madness!

"A rare find"

submission: Portal Madness!
date: January 3, 2009

It's not too often a Madness flash comes out that really does anything new with the formula. Granted, this just takes that formula and mixes it with the slightly aged Portal idea, but the results are solid.

The art was almost all from other sources, as you credited. Despite this, it had a coherent feel to it. The sterile vibe of Portal blends well with the bleak, simplistic Madness look.

As for making a sequel, I say go for it! Might want to improve the portals, as they don't quite mesh with the rest of the look. Also, making it a bit longer would be nice, as right now it's just a taste of this unique cocktail.

Regardless, this was a well put together and distinctive flash. Good work, and looking forward to more from you. Recommended for the Madness collection.

Naruto Vampy Episode 3

"One of my favorites for all the wrong reasons"

date: January 1, 2009

Honestly, I have no idea whether this is a serious account from a little kid or is someone older with a killer sense of humor. Regardless, I enjoyed the first Narutovampy for being so over the top terrible. Bad animation, worse soundtrack, and spelling in dire need of spellcheck.

This does not disappoint. The soundtrack is actually decent this time, and the animation is somewhat improved. However, once "Through the Fire and the Flames" comes on, it goes back to it's batshit roots - the music is awful, the animation is spazzy, and I have no idea what's going on. Then he does the "This is Sparta!" thing to two people in a row, I couldn't tell well since so much was going on so fast.

Anyway, I enjoy this series greatly. Has a similar vibe to the first Arfenhouse, in how it's inept, looks awful, and makes no sense whatsoever. That would normally be insulting, but in this case, it's what makes it enjoyable. Those 15 minutes felt like a mere 14.

Iron Claus

"Put a smile on my face"

submission: Iron Claus
date: December 25, 2008

That was a very entertaining flash! Solid art, and a great concept. Having Santa Claus as Iron Man is a funny idea, and you pulled it off well. Good use of the movie score as well.

It lacked substance, but as you said, it was just a last minute Christmas card. Definitely looking forward to lengthier animations from you in the future, as this one was very good!

Keep it up, and merry Christmas!
