Ericho's game Reviews on Newgrounds

[The Pizza Man]

I was confused as to how this was a point and click adventure game. I guess we just have different definitions. I really am not used to games like this. Well, it obviously wasn't hard. What I don't like is how it just goes on too long. It's just the same images over and over.

The drawings aren't that good. It vaguely reminded me of RomeoJR. I guess the rhyming is okay. It just doesn't seem appropriate for a game. I am sorry for not liking this.

[Cricket Batter Challenge]

Hee hee, I ran out of balls. I liked this game if only because it was the first time I played any kind of cricket. So that's apparently how the game is played. Well, I wouldn't really know, would I? This is probably the most I've seen of it. I'll just assume this is realistic.

It really is something new for this website. It was pretty easy to understand. Cricket doesn't seem like a game I'd be a fan of here or in real life. The crowd is pretty feisty. The delivery's good.

[Hitting Stuff at a Building]

This was a wonderfully fun game! I'm just a sucker for these Javanoid like games. Or maybe they're called Arkanoid or something like that. Whatever, this game is wonderful! It seemed like it was too easy at first. I mean, you could just hit the ball as much as you wanted.

I didn't even notice you had lives. The music is great too. It's awesome that something that just got submitted is on the front page. I don't think I've ever seen that happen before. It's great to see new levels and everything.

[Freak Show]

I was disappointed to find out this was a point and click adventure game. Those were never my things. It's weird how easy one of the medals is. All I had to do was just click on the rubber ducky over and over. I thought it would take more than that. You first go over and pop the red balloon to get the key.

Use the key to (duh) open the door. I got confused after this. I like all the little details. For fans of these kinds of games, I would recommend this. The colors are nice too.

[COKEHEAD]

This should have a higher rating. It's really funny! I even like how the artwork holds up after all this time. At first, I couldn't understand what the gun was for. I now realize you were supposed to shoot the hallucinations. I think I won by accident.

I was trying to lose by shooting the guy. Er, I mean shooting George W. Bush. At that point, I had already won. I just love the music. Great early game!

[Scary Escape: Asylum]

I find this to be a good game. My only problem is that it is pretty difficult. I got used to solving the puzzle after awhile. The music is nicely appropriate. The artwork is great! I especially like that one disembodied arm.

I don't know if you ever use that. You have to work really hard in this. You just never know what will show up next. The ghoul seems pretty harmless. I just like the haunted house setting.

Thanks!

[The Schwarzenegger Dance]

I couldn't understand the appeal in this. It was just Arnold being shot easily. It didn't add up to much. At least it was easy. You need to be more creative. You have of course made much better things.

Then again, with how easy it was, it was not entertaining. It was too short. I wish I could have heard his voice. Hey, you spelled his name right! I keep getting it wrong myself.

[Skeet Challenge]

You certainly got the challenging part down well. I admit this game could be annoying. I still appreciated it. I have never played this game in real life. I've never even fired a gun. This does seem to be a pretty authentic representation of it.

I like how realistic it is. I just think it's a bit too redundant. It is just the same thing over and over again. It still doesn't need to be much more than what it is. I am satisfied when I get ahead.

[SSSG: Haunted Castle]

These pictures are always impressive. I'm getting to the point where I can easily get the first medal. You simply go backwards and click on the bench. The silver key falls out and it's obvious what you do with it. I really was impressed by the music in this one. I'm glad it was automatic.

The fine details are really nice. These games just aren't really for me. I like how bright everything is. It just seems like people make games with darker atmosphere. I mean, this is haunted after all.

selfdefiant responds:

Thanks. It is haunted but not in the sense of scary. Sometimes haunted can be nice. :)

[Combat Instinct]

Wow, I think this was the first truly great game on this website! I especially appreciate how it's just non stop action. Yeah, the graphics don't hold up well, but it's still great! You get a clear understanding of what you need to hit. I admit it's hard sometimes. I can't tell which part of the ship you shoot.

I thought I was staying in the same place the whole time. Instead, it was obvious I was moving around. That only makes it better! The sounds are pretty good too. I love early great stuff.
