"Impricise language."

submission: And M16's to the people!

date: September 23, 2004

It seems like a lot of work to put into a flash then not check facts, but I'm not very good at flash, so I don't know how long this kind of stuff takes.

A "machine gun" and an "assault rifle" are two very different things. The assault weapons ban had nothing to do with machine guns.

A casuality and a death are two different things.

M-16s still can't be bought for civilian use. The burst function makes them illegal. The AR-15, the M-16's semi-automatic-only precursor is now legal.

The fact that it was just Osama sitting there talking was a little boring. I was originally going to give your submission a 6 overall rating, but I looked at some of the other reviews. You have to deal with so many morons that I bumped it up to a 10 and voted 5.

Score: 6

"Someone to play against would be nice."

submission: Starfighter Duel (v 1.1)

date: September 15, 2004

I liked the idea, but it sort of illustrates the reason there are no two player games on Newgrounds.

Score: 6

"It was a little bit addictive."

submission: Rape Escape!

date: September 12, 2004

The game had one immediate strike against it: I don't like skateboards or anything to do with them. However, that's just personal taste.

At first it was sort of about timing so you don't jump to soon and end up hitting a bullet and pressing the correct direction (jump or duck). Then, later on, it starts going fast enough to be a matter of reaction time, and that's when it got to be fun.

Nothing in it was outstanding, but everything was proficient. It had much better gameplay then quite a few games even though it was so simple. I appreciated that there were no bugs.

I still don't understand why it's Rape Escape.

Score: 4

"Good ol' error messages."

submission: Pico's Unloaded

date: September 10, 2004

Unfortunately, it crashed a little after the lights went out at the ice cream parlor when Pico was in the street. I gather this isn't an isolated problem with my computer.

I'd like to give a higher score, because it seemed like it was shaping up to be good, but I can't in good faith, seeing the only parts I saw weren't spectacular. That, and good flash movies don't crash in my opinion.

Score: 8

"Excellent."

submission: _FLU!(chapter00)

date: September 6, 2004

I really liked the story, style, social commentary, graphics, etc, but the translation wasn't very good.

Score: 9

"That was so good."

submission: YAAFM 9: Michael Moore

date: August 30, 2004

It's funny that people are giving you very poor reviews for supposedly taking Michael Moore out of context, because you're only doing exactly what he does. People who claim "you're the moron if you couldn't understand Mike's metaphoric and mockery style of presenting a situation or person" clearly don't understand what you're saying. You've only used exactly what Michael Moore does to make fun of him.

I would also have to agree with some of them. Michael Moore isn't really a moron, just a pinko jackass. However, no one should be immunie from criticism.

I guess some people just can't take criticism of their own political views.

It was very funny and nicely done.

Score: 7

"Too short."

submission: Birth of J. Rocketfingers

date: August 8, 2004

I liked it. It was smooth, and had a sort of attitude about it, however it was just too short to be very good.

Score: 4

"There was no point in the other two games."

submission: Mini-Game-O-Rama

date: August 8, 2004

It seems to me that without the Mario game, this would have been blammed. It's certainly the only game pulling its own weight.

Score: 2

"Same old."

submission: NG handbook

date: August 1, 2004

I don't see how it could take you very long to find all this information for yourself, seeing as this type of flash has been done before many times and much better.

Also, it's spelled "sergeant."

Score: 9

"It's good, but not #1 good."

submission: Moonlight

date: July 28, 2004

The whole thing soired for me when I read the opening text. It was so trite I ;aughed. I appreciated the parallelism in the writing, too, but you need some punctuation. Basically, it came off as a middle schooler trying to write dramatically for an RPG. Everything after I read that was tainted by it.

Don't get me wrong, though, it was an excellent movie. I thought the fight scenes were well done, with one exception. When he fought the centaur the arrows came in at completely random trajectories every time. It looked cool, but it was also kind of stupid.

I also didn't understand the whole thing calling the guy warrior on his tombstone. I can't even tell if that's what it's calling him, or if it has some other deeper/shallower meaning.

Excellent movie, however.
