mega48man's game Reviews on Newgrounds

[Tankmen: Incursion]

needs a lot of work still

it looks like you put a TON of work into it, but that's like how Call of Duty 3 got an E for Effort. spend less time on the artistic stuff and more time on the gameplay. i felt like i was playing Metroid fusion on my GBA and the camera was moving like it does in Super Smash Bros...... except the GBA was lagging REALLY REALLY BADLY. like others have already said, this camera dilema is making it hard for the game to flow. plus, when there aren't any enemies on the screen all i see is me, AND THAT'S IT, NOTHING ELSE. it's a bit hard to make that leap of faith when i can't see 3-4 feet in front of me.

also, i see you put in a reward type gun upgrade thing. great, i find that a good part of the game, TOO BAD THE SECOND UPGRADE WON'T LET YOU SHOOT STRAIGHT. when i'm shooting some shots up and some down in a V shape, it make it REALLY hard to kill the mean floaty thing that's shooting me right in front of my face =_= try to make that upgrade system a bit more rewarding, like faster rate of fire or greater damage each shot.

now get to work.

[Ether War]

awesome!

so i go in to that red orb right when i start, right? then i see the bad guys spawning out of it, i knew they'd be all over me. but once i saw the yellow orbs shooting me i was all "it's a trap!" then i saw how fast my shield was goin down, "our shields can't repel laser's of THAT magnitude!"

anyway, amazing game you've made here, keep up the good work (although it would be nice if you could allow the player to toggle sound and music seperately)

[Mercenaries 2]

it's pretty good, but then starts to decline

like DizzeeRascal said, it's a lot like the good old metal slug series (but a complete copy like he so rudely said) i in fact like that part, espcially where the tank jumped around, i've always wanted to do that. and if he's looking for something new, the helicopter level might remind you of classic fps shoot 'em up. but then when i played the sniper mission, i quit after about 10 times or so. the down sight is EXTREMELY sensitive, and this sensitivity does NOT go well with the guard's MGS like awareness. so we give this game 7 rockets (explosion)...out of 10. "catch an all new X-play, weeknights at 8, only on g4!"

sorry, i was just watching x-play, i had to write my review like adam sessler.

[-> PANCAKES!!! <-]

soooo, u think it's funny to take my pancakes? DIE

you have to read those two long stories at the loading screen and the play button part, but in your head, you have to visualize the joker...oh i'm sorry, i meant "heath ledger"...reading it to you. you see, it's a lot more fun to read it like that, it's all just a good joke, if you ask me. as a matter a fact, why don't you read, EVerything i wrote here..again..but as the jok.....HEAth, LEDger...go ahead, HA, take a joke, HA HA, stop being so seriOUS, HA HA HA HA HA HA HAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!!!

FatKidWitAJetPak responds:

Why so serious? Hey wait a minute... PSHHAAHHH!!!

Thats pretty funny. I think I should narrate the story lol!!!

[Dragon Ball Kart]

awesome!

i loved that game! whoever can't win at this, you either A. have autosomal disease (retardation) B. don't know the tricks or C. don't know how to play the game in general. i won a grand pri once, i had some really close calls, but i did it, so stop complaining. (by the way, goku seems to come in 4th a lot, don't use him, use either piccolo or vegeta.)

keep up the good work! i'm looking forward to a sequel with more tracks and more characters set up like mario kart where you can choose the characters and tracks each race!!! *hint hint*

[Ladybug - TPC]

i say we need more flash artists like you!

what a great game! i could play that for hours on end!!! in the many past years on newgrounds, i've seen violent games, overly complicated rpg's, over the top crass humor, sex driven flashes, a lot of this mature nonsense. but this game really gets the average newground user away from all that and gives them a nice peaceful game to get away from all of that. sure, you coulda made the flies cops, the ladybug a gangster, and the flowers crack and hoes, but you decided to make it something that all of newgrounds can enjoy. your a real man of genius, this bud's for you!

JYoung007 responds:

Thank you for the review. I am glad you enjoy the game.

[Gangsta Bean]

too hard

HOW THE HELL DO YOU BEAT MR. SNICKERS IF ALL YOU HAVE IS A A KNIFE A 3 GRENADES?

[Boss Bash]

big problem

okay, so you put a hell lot of work into it, and that's good. except YOU CAN'T BEAT THEM. killed the ABOBO guy, but then his thugs seemed to last a little longer after abobo died, i guess i'm just complaining. i know how to beat WART, throw the veggies at him, just like in the old GBA game, except, THEY DON'T HIT HIM. and for thunderbird...

"hey, i don't know what the fuck to do"
-you gotta plug the controller into the second controller port-
"really? well how the fuck was i supposed to figure that out?"
-colonel tells you-
"oh..well thats cool and all, but seriously, come on."
-yeeeeah-
"oh whatever"
-hey, guess what?-
"what?" !
BANG!!!!
