[Sonic: Nazo Unleashed Pt1]

Awesome stuff!

I haven't seen a hand-drawn flash this good in a while. You'd almost think it were made by Sonic Team themselves. That was a pretty good idea, using voice clips from the various games to further the story along, and I was surprised by how good Nazo sounded. Kinda reminded me of Perfect Cell and Cooler from the DBZ dub.

When does Sonic say "You bastard!" though? I saw in the credits you used clips from Sonic Heroes, so I'll assume it's from that. I just thought the only Sonic game that had any profanity in it was Shadow the Hedgehog, and I didn't play enough of that to hear it.

Anyway, good stuff! I'll watch Pt 2 tomorrow and I'll be keeping an eye out for Pt 3.

Chakra-X responds:

Thanks! When Sonic says "You Bastard!", it was edited to make him say that. He did not actually say that in the games. I took a sound that had him say "I think you got that backwards, doc!" and a "start" sound, so the "ckwar" in "backwards becomes "star", making it sound like "bastard".

All edited with GoldWave. With all the voices I have, it lets me make and edit new phrases. Perfect for movie making.

Could be a lot better.

After watching this whole series and going through several pages of reviews, I saw far too many 10s, all of them undeserved.

Sprites - The actual edits weren't too terribly bad, but the recoloring was just atrocious. Like Metagen's original form. I think I saw at least 12 different colors on him. Ultimate/Final Form Sigma had a decent shape, but his colors were too heavy, for lack of a beter word. By that I mean that it was one shade of black all over, one shade of red, etc. Try experimenting with different shades to make it look more professional, and not like a simple paint bucket coloring. The fights definitely had a lot of action, but most of it was just brightly colored energy blasts and 5,000 sword slashes. Vary it up a little!

Sounds - WAY TOO LOUD. Also, you used the same sounds too often. There are much more than one impact sound, one energy blast sound, one screaming sound, do some searching! When I was looking for sounds for the flash I'm working on, I found at least 6 different punching and kicking sounds at ESF World Networkxx, and I plan to use each and every one of them. The music, while some of them were good choices (I almost used the Dimmu Borgir song myself) was drowned out by all the screaming and energy blasts. As for the voice acting, let's put it this way. I turned down my speakers during all the talking scenes. If I were you I'd just stick to text boxes, unless you can get some damn good actors. (WHY WAS DRAGOON GERMAN.) On a side note, please, PLEASE work on your writing. I had to get up and get some crackers for all the cheese. Also, profanity doesn't make a movie better. When's the last time you heard Knuckles call someone a bitch out of nowhere?

You definitely have potential as a sprite artist, but you've still got a ways to go before you're on par with the likes of Alvin-Earthworm and Proxicide.

LgdVegetto responds:

This was done 2 years ago. Alvin was inspired by this to make his series. I've gotten a lot better since then.

[Glurk!]

Nice work.

It was kinda funny, but the end was predictable.

thanks

[Megaman: Polarity 2]

This made me sad...

I almost didn't watch it after that retarded X4 title screen knock off you did. You should be ashamed of yourself. I'm only gonna finish watching these because the whole idea actually kicks ass. It's just that the dialogue is just so horrible...

Frankenroc responds:

I'm not too proud of this one myself, honestly, after doing Polarity 3 and Reconstruction.

[Sonic Meets Chick]

Meh...

It wasn't very good at all. Shadow looked kinda cool, but that was about it. And since when can he summon electric death swords and use DBZ powers? Sorry, but you fail. Try again.

Cajunspirit responds:

lol. I doubt you would rate so low jus cuz i put in supped up stuff for shadow. I think it's cuz i killed you know who.
