[Madness Antipathy]

Mass Murder, just the way I like it!

Gotta say 6, 7 and 8 all have something unique to each that kicks my ass.
This one: Mass Murderage, with 100+ deaths! I love it!
The Music is great too, Krinkels really knows how to add a song and allow it too enhance the animation.
The re-appearance of the Improbability drive amazes me yet again, there are many reoccurences in this series, but it never gets old.
To think it all started because of the Chicken Dance in #1.
Can't wait for 9, I'm sure it'll be epic

[Apple vs Microsoft]

Seriously Dude....

The PC's aparrently had over 15 different pictures of a BSOD.
When it came to Apple.... All i saw was an Apple logo next to a Windows logo and a picture of a Mac OSX desktop with a file explorer on it.
Now here's the problem....
1. When one supports one thing, they usually show more than a FEW pictures of it.
2. Of course Macs are going to look better when you compare a 9x operating system (developed in previous century lets not forget) to a supposed "new and improved" operating system on a Mac. Hey perhaps I'll make a video of how my Windows Vista Laptop kicks your low end elemtary Macintosh Computer's rear end. YOU CAN"T COMPARE COMPUTERS FROM DIFFERENT TIME FRAMES!!!
3. Now sure, I don't dislike Macs, but if you're going to bring so much hatred to a PC, better be able to back it up with more than a BSOD. When my PC crashed, I just shut it off, turned it on and resumed my normal life. Now I messed with a Mac of OSX origin, and when it crashed, it crashed hardcore. But of course Mac forgot to leave a "system restore" or a function to return to a back-up state, so hey all I had to do was nuke it and re-install tons of programs.

This isn't a diss to you, but its all constructive criticism in that you should probably have more knowledge in the supposed "suckiness" of PC's before making an attempt like this.
If you're gonna show 15 BSOD, better have 15 pictures of Mac and its superiority.
Man I've never vented like this before, feels good for once.

[Metal Gear Awesome 2]

The title is an understatement

I loved this video so much I felt like calling up Egoraptor and asking him if he would change the title to "Metal Gear Incredible" or "Metal Gear Roxmysoxbeyondanyothervideo"
Anyways back to my Point Style Review:
Art/Graphics: 10/10 - Nothing like superior underdrawn figures to add the "Awesomeness" of a video, Egoraptor really knows when to "Overdraw" and "underdraw" the characters to add effect to the scene. It made me laugh when i saw Chibi Snake be a total bitch and freak out on the helpless scientist. The exaggerations were hilarious, who'd think Snake was so pissed his eyebrows would sprout into an orange tree? Props Ego, excellent animation.
Music: n/a (which is ok, its a talent to make a good animation without any real music)
Sound/Voice: 10/10 - Once again found with Exaggerations, all sounds and voicing was true to the animation.
Humor: 10/10 The obvious choice for why this flash was so "Awesome." Even the moments that didnt make sense (since i have not played the game) were overcome by the superior antics and humor. Its a sure sign to be a good flash when someone who isnt a fan of the series even busts a gut in the process of watching this.
Violence: 10/10 - What else can I say besides the fact that violence coupled with the exaggerations makes a great video, even the "voice violence" (swearing, degrading other people) was hilarious.
Overall: 10/10
Its sad the series has to end here, (along with Egoraptor's profound career on NG) such potential coming to a halt is quite saddening.

[Super Mario bros Z ep 6 (old series)]

Its well worth the hard work....

I'm guessing like many of my other favorite series, (Madness Combat, ROTMK, etc.) these flash videos take several months of dedication, hard work, and even hair pulling moments. To have the patience to never quit until the end of the series is truly a skill.
Art/Graphics 10/10 - The excellent style, animation and just flow of this video and series is one that leaves many in the dust. Its quite a talent to animate so well as to obtain COMPLAINTS about when the next video will arrive. You then know your doing a fantastic job.
Sound/Music: 9/10 - The music is great, quite often it fits to the scene and action, the sound effects are spectacular. The only reason I don't give it a 10 is because I myself would have a larger variation of music (not the same song twice or thrice (this excludes the intro and ending music, those are essential) in multiple episodes.) overall though the choice is excellent.
Humor 10/10 - I give the humor a 10 because its based off the mario and sonic series and i guarantee thats what the fans want.
Violence 10/10 - The effects and violence play hand in hand, can't have excellent violence without excellent effects.
Overall 9.75 (Rounded up based of the fact that the NG rating system does not have decimal points)

I look forward to episode 7, along with Madness 9 (I think many people who like this series would like the Madness series as well)

[Sonic Shorts: Volume 1]

good stuff

This is a great video, although I lack an understanding as to why Sonic would scream at his own 360 game (my conception was that the game either sucked total ass (which is true from what i hear) or the fact that he somehow has appeared on the 360)
It was a great animation, all the artists did a great job, and I got quite a few laughs,

hey s0undtr0n don't know what your problem is, but guidelines strictly say to give "constructive" criticism, i dont even see intelligent criticism, my guess is that one of the artists that made this video slept with one of your lovers,
get a grip, it does deserve to be in the top fifty, they probably put more work in this video than u have in your life

[Madness Inundation]

Omnipotence Rocks

I know this is definitely not the end. (And I really hope not too)
The Terminal reads "Normality Restoration In Progress" It seems that the improbability drive has finally been stopped,
In my mind Krinkels as you know likes to leave us confused, wondering, wanting to see the next. Thus why me, and many others were shocked and somewhat mad at this ending. Believe me folks, I don't know how this sets up for Number 9, but Krinkels will find a way, he always does.

Great Video. I was personally looking for a slight change in the series myself, and this is how would've wanted it to be.

[Awesome Compilation Vol 6]

words can't describe...

how funny that stuff was, the randomness of it all is what made it so great, i would never have guessed a giant penis would shoot out of a bowl of scrambled eggs and totally rape everything within 2 km of it, genius, animal fat died.

[Madness Consternation]

Stunning, i loved it

So far i believe the series has had 3 stages:
1 thru 3: kill that sheriff and his followers
4 thru 6: efffin clown
7 on: Murderface aka Mystery man

absolutely amazing
so long as the music matches i will always love this series
the simplicity of the characters lacks for a 10 in graphics, but believe me everything else about it makes up for it.
