One of the best videogame parodies on Newgrounds!
This movie, in my opinion, has set the standard for all videogame parodies on Newgrounds. That's all the introduction that this requires.
Graphics: Not the best I've ever seen. That being said, they were still very good. I can tell that the emphasis in this cartoon is on the humor, rather than the artwork, otherwise you'd be animating frame-by-frame. Overall, very nice to look at, but definitely not the most visually impressive thing on NG.
Style: The movement was very fluid, I particularly liked the look of the Squaresoft developer... he seemed more three dimensional and realistic than the others. Your character models are good in general, and the backgrounds are good. I particularly liked the N-Gage scene, simply because of the action in the background. Nice work!
Sound: RubberNinja has done an amazing job with all three evil developers, and anyone else he may have been able to get his voice on. Overall, the sound and music was great, and I liked the Rammstein at the start. Music was well used throughout the whole piece, especially the MGS part. Very good!
Violence: OHMIGODIMONFIRE. This sums it up in one phrase. It wasn't a violent movie, but what violence there was was there for the sake of comedy. Not much, but that's good.
Interactivity: The preloader mini-games were fun for a while, but they couldn't hold my attention. But I can understand that they weren't the main focus of the movie so, yeah. Not the best, but definitely not the worst. I liked the concept of Extreme Ironing, though :p
Humor: Where this movie shines, without a doubt. I laughed out aloud at some parts, which I never normally do. The joke that really stood out to me was the Soider-Man one, about having trouble getting out of the bath. Of course, the more I watch it, the less funny it becomes, but it still gets a grin even now. The OHMYGODIMONFIRE part was absolutely hilarious, too. I'm hoping to see that in Decline 3. Masterful!
Overall, I would love to give this higher than an 8.5. But I really can't, because of the graphics (nothing wrong with them, I'm just commenting that they weren't as detailled as... say... Bitey of Brackenwood). Otherwise, this is a great example of a video game parody and everything that *can* go right. Looking forward to Decline 3!
8.5/10 (VERY GOOD!)
