"Great shot! Return to base immediately"

This was the first realtime strategy game I got into when I was a kid in the mid 90s, and was one of the first games that got me interested in PC games. Nice custom sprites, as well as your own original animations in certain bits. The funniest part for me would have to be where the harvester stupidly travels through the enemy base, I had that problem a lot so I usually got frustrated and stopped playing the game whenever that happend. I wish the enemy would've just let the my harvester go through peacefully, lol.

Killerratte responds:

Yeah ... that harvester thing is actually acceptable in the old game, but in the gayass EA failure Generals 2 - Crystal Wars, the harvester drives at the speed of light to the enemy base and the radar sucks so badly that you can't even recognize it.

Hooray for the fat controller!

Believe it or not, but when I first got my Xbox, I used that fat controller for a very long time before switching to the smaller one, which isn't actually that much smaller when you look at it. I think the bulky grip on the fat one just makes it look big. Anyway, the thing itself really is under-appreciated, I used to be very skilled at games like Halo with the fat Xbox controller, but sadly its right analog stick became defective after a while.

Anyway, good movie. I suppose a lot of Nintendo fanboys didn't like it though, and they have the biggest (and most annoying) fanboy community as well. But that doesn't matter too much, good job. Besides, it's not like you dissed any Nintendo franchise on an excessive level, I mean come on it was just the controller.

ryguypie responds:

Sadly, fanboys don't see things like the rest of the world do. They're all too stubborn too see the whole picture. Anyway, thanks for the review.

1994 - The year of the greatest Sonic game ever.

That's got to be one of the best tributes an eminent game like this derserves. I sure can say it invoked a fair amount of memorability of that day when I first played Sonic&Knuckles as a kid. Also, the kids of today really need to respect this game, as it was one of the games that made the biggest headlines in its time.

jimmy5327 responds:

I agree, Sega should really bring out another sonic side scroller so kids can appretiate it better.

Amusing.

The fact that you managed to creatively assemble Counter-Strike sounds together to make a coherent piece of music is most amazing. The gun sounds and the grenades/flashbangs really do create a sense of awe in that respect. However, the looping animation of limited sequences is one aspect of the movie which seems to make it linger onwards in a lack variety, but other than that it's brilliant stuff.

StealthBeast responds:

u guys still dont get that I didn't make the sound track lol...

but thanks for the review!

Entertaining....

Apart from your Red Dwarf movie which I didn't like much, I've been watching some of your other movies and I must admit I really like some of them, especially your Beavis vs Butthead movie! :D

As for this movie, it was entertaining and kept me interested. Depsite its long length, it managed to retain my attention, and the humour isn't totally hilarious, but made me chuckle in some scenes. The character references were quite random at times, but I suppose that was just the fun of the movie really, and I really enjoyed it. Furthermore, even though the voice acting isn't perfect, I still thought it was decent enough.

Lastly, your art and animation style is simple, but this is why it is very original and creative too. Good job to you sir, I give you a 5 :)

RogerregoRRoger responds:

Cool, glad you liked it ^^
As for red dwarf, i should've either kept to the red dwarf spirits, or made a spoof in my own style, unfortunate i tried both and thuss failed :S
Ah well.
But this is me in my element yeah, madness

A Classic!

For some reason your random movies make me laugh, and not many random movies do that! XD

Anyway, that was a great movie. It was short and simple, yet it was also very enjoyable to watch. The slapstick humour is the main good feature about this movie. It's great to see some short, classic parodies like this once in a while; you're definitely the next Randy Solem when it comes to making stuff like this! You have some good movie making techniques as well: the special Flash effects really opened my eyes. All I can say is well done, I hope you get the chance to make more stuff like this.

DariusR responds:

Thanks!

Utterly Boring, and a waste of time.

Personally, I'm a fan of Red Dwarf, and like many others have said, it is a classic British comedy. However, I don't really like most sitcoms out there today as well, some I do like and some I don't. I tried not to take this movie seriously, since I assumed it would be a funny parody of Red Dwarf and so I gave it chance by watching it. I assumed wrong and was most disappointed.

Your art and animation skills are pretty good, so criticism there. The voice acting is really cheesy though, I can understand if you can't find voice actors who sound exactly like the characters they are supposed to be imitating, but come on this is ridiculous. Most of the Red Dwarf characters sound like pompous pricks in this movie. Also, as the movie itself, it's really boring and seems to be at a slow and boring pace. There were maybe a couple of small ideas which made me laugh a little on the inside, but other than it's not funny and it's bland.

If you want parody something then that's fine, but this is a tacky parody for a prominent sitcom which deserves so much more.

RogerregoRRoger responds:

youj're right, to explain stuff

1)basicly I owed this Euan a request and so was forced to make a flash about a series i never watched. in the end, i only saw 3 episodes

2)This is my vision of a sitcom, slow boring and predicteble jokes, with an audience to remind you when you're suppsoed to llaugh. In the end when Bush is introduced however i automaticly swifted back to my normal style of movie and threw out the whole sitcom atmosphere.

3)so in the end, it's neither a tribute nor a parody, but a movie that's between a poor attempt to imitate red dwarf, make fun of sitcoms and to satisfy the requester, and the end result failed in all 3.
Af well, at least I followed the promise and finshed the request, so now i can do whatever i want to do myself again.

You've made my fucking day

I can't even begin to conceive how long that took you to make, and to all you anti-sprite faggots out there, SPRITE MOVIES DO TAKE A FUCKING LONG TIME TO MAKE!!!! I should know, I'm working on one right now.

Anyway, onto the proper review.

I've heard about this Sonic Quest for Power series for some time now; although I never bothered seeing both movies until yesterday, and boy was I sleeping under a rock for a long time!! I guess Stt (Author of Sonic the Swordsman) was right about his series lacking animation techniques compared to yours. Another thing I like about your movies is that you like to combine skillfully created Flashy effects with sprites, I tried to do that with my last movie but I didn't do too well.

I can honestly say you are the master when it comes to sprite battles, the battle scenes blew my socks off!!! They were at a quick pace; they had variation, innovation, creativity, impeccable graphics and so forth. Although the movie itself is too DBZ orientated for my liking. Don't get me wrong, I used to like DBZ a lot (I 've seen all the episodes), I still think it's decent, but I don't think it looks right with Sonic though. Oh well, I guess we all have to add our own favourite content to movies as an act of improvisement sometime or another.

As for the storyline and the script, I'm afraid I'm going to have to say Stt's StS is the winner there. The story itself seems kinda wacky in a sense too, due to the fact that Super Sonic uses weapons in a Matrix style. I can see you've tried to add some intended humour too, but I'm afraid it just dosen't work. Stick to the serious fights and carnage instead of trying to crack jokes which don't fit in with the rest of the script.

Also, try to have some variation in the story, the super transformation thing is getting kinda boring and irritating now. Sure, it's still cool for Sonic to transform into a yellow homoicide and maybe Shadow too, but it dosen't suit Knuckles. As for the length of the movie, I'm okay with that since it had a lot of action as well as having enough dialogue to establish the storyline.

However, there is one aspect of the graphics that I didn't approve, the use of the mouth. Robotnik's mouth is just a basic red/white circle. Some of the other characters' don't look good with it either, you should think about improving that facet.

Overall: despite a strange, yet dissapointing storyline and plot, this movie deserves a 5 because you put a tremendous amount of effort and skill into it.

Can't wait to see the third one :D

For god's sake turn it off!!!!

I know Mega Man isn't from the U.S. and all, but it was still good to make it seem like he was anyway. Infact, I thought this was a decent movie up until you used that STUPID FUCKING FLASHY EFFECT NEAR THE END!! THAT WAS GIVING ME A DAM SEIZEUR!! If you're going to do something like that again then I recommend you go to a mental hospital or something.

SonicDeathBanana responds:

fuck you!

You really are an energetic artitst!!

Wow!! That was cool! That must have taken you bloody ages to make since it was frame by frame animation. I would probably be too lazy to make something like that myself. You put some real effort into this!! And I see you created the movie on a smaller scale too. Well I understand why, it probably would have taken a bit longer to make on a bigger scale, unless you resized it of course. But I think this is more of an animated GIF icon than a Flash, but nevertheless I still think it deserves to be called a good Flash movie!!

If it were downloadable then I would definetly download it too :D

Peda responds:

Thank you very much! As a treat especially for you, I uploaded it the GIF!

Thanks for the reveiw! I'm glad you appreciate it.

Such as it is, I don't like dead fish, unless penguin salad is included.
