Newgrounds.com — Everything, By Everyone.

I could hardly continue watching after Sonic and Shadow had the close ups on eachother with the angry anime-like faces just staring at eachother. I realize this is based off an anime, but what the fuck dude. There's no point in that over dramatic stare down crap. The close up effect is better than having the pixels just stand there with some angry grunting sound effects, but you don't need to exaggerate that dramatic anime element.

Although the graphics are getting much better with each episode, the doomship just looked like a bunch of polygons. For something with that much hype surrounding it, you can do better than a bunch of blocks with 3 different colors. I don't think adding a couple of flame decals and a picture of Bowser's head would significantly effect the file size.

The jokes are getting even more repetitive and stale. Who honestly didn't think Luigi was going to get lost in the woods? Then later he shocks himself on a computer, and shortly after THAT he smacks himself in the face with his goggles. Then there's the random Wario and Waluigi appearance where something goes wrong with them, the old barrel roll meme, and several more failed attempts at humor during the fight scenes involving Luigi. I know you can't do much humor wise in an action movie but at least try something different every once and a while. The least you can do is avoid using old 4chan memes. I'd rather sit through an episode of nothing but Wario fart jokes then an episode of "DO A BARREL ROLL" and "IT'S OVER 9000!!!".

Despite all of that, I still liked it somewhat. It's obvious you put a lot of effort into it, the animation was by far the best in the series (This was easily the most fluid moving sprite film I have ever seen), and the music selection for a couple of scenes was VERY good. In the end, it's still just a sprite film with a fanbase full of Mario-Sonic fanboys. I don't think a 2 will hurt your score in the sea of nonsensical 10/10 reviews.

In regards to the cliffhanger, it's obvious Shadow or Mecha Sonic will pop out of nowhere and kick Basilisx's ass. Everyone else is stone, and Mario is fucked so you can't expect much else for a resolution.

This is the first rant that I have found myself laughing in agreement with in quite some time. It is pathetic how everyone in the current teen generation are throwing their lives away for some e-penis points on their Xbox that they can't do anything with. The only thing worse than the anti-social low life nerds that waste their time on this useless shit are the pompus faggots that feel the need to talk down to people who decided not to spend 10 hours a day trying to achieve some meaningless task in a meaningless game. I laugh at all past, present and future 0's given to this flash by people who have taken this personally and are butthurt because they got a big kick in the nuts from their internet idol. Bravo foamy.

It was fun to play through one time. I liked the custom castle feature, but Newgrounds cuts up the code so I can't play other people's creations without pasting it somewhere and getting rid of all the extra spaces. I didn't like the fact that there was a timer at the end of the 5th shot that kept you from restarting.

Overall it was a nice challenge and a cool concept but in my opinion it doesn't deserve the high score it has.
