Ericho's game Reviews on Newgrounds

[Comet Blaster]

It's nice to play a game better than the ones I've been looking at. I don't know why, but I am just no good at controlling games like this. I do like how you can really rapidly fire. It's kind of sad to see so much of it go to waste. Wait, am I caring for the blasts I'm firing? The enemies have more emotion than those things!

They don't look that much like comets, but more like artificial satellite. The gameplay is quite straightforward. I still can't really understand how the health works. It's still a decent game. The sounds work pretty well.

[Bumper Craft]

I found this to just be an average game. I did not really understand the point. It just seemed like you were randomly going to these vortexes. I appreciate the decent graphics. There just wasn't anything out of the ordinary. I can't believe I can't shoot the fish! I understand the spikes, but the fish?

I thought it would take place in a bumper cart place. I've been to places like that and they are quite fun, granted it doesn't rain. The details were okay. I just didn't find anything that good or bad about it. It is kind of cool when you explode.

[The Handy Man]

This is popular, but it seems like most people would think this was okay. I agree with them. I admit that it was hard to take the game seriously. The CGI looked pretty off and silly. I know you could say the same about early CGI games, but stuff like Mario is supposed to look goofy. The sounds were fairly good too.

I just did not care for this. It also didn't help that I'm no good at this. You just keep on firing and firing the enemies. Of course, I imagine with training I can become better with it. The bad guys still go on after you die!

[Santa in Hell]

This game really did look promising, but I couldn't find it that playable. I was afraid you would have to touch the hoops again to save. I just did not have much mobility with Santa. Well, at least it's around Christmas time when I'm typing this review! I think the sounds and music are fairly good. What I don't understand is how he has no means of defense.

Yeah, I knew that evil bull would come after me. I do like the idea of Santa escaping from Hell. I think it's just that it's funny to see a fat guy run like that. He still seems a bit too bulky, though. The graphics are fairly good.

[Santa Run 2]

I knew it shouldn't be too hard to get at least one medal. I liked this being in the series. It still wasn't quite that good, because I couldn't understand it. I guess I was just moving way too slow at the beginning. I wasn't sure what the balloon meant. It makes sense for someone as fat as Santa to be able to crush bricks.

I guess that would also require some physical strength. The graphics were quite nicely done. There was definitley something different going on constantly. I just appreciated the overall design. It may not have been easy, but I got something out of it.

[Empire Business]

Dude, you know how to make a game that makes you want to continue! It just seemed like it had no end. While there wasn't a lot of detail, I still have to say I really liked it! It was certianly addictive. Everything just led to something more. I couldn't help but think if this whole thing was a metaphor for greed.

While the graphics weren't that good, it truly didn't matter. I wish I could get money like this in the real world! Even at the last upgrade, I'd still have plenty. The music is fairly good too. I admit, if it wasn't for the medals, I wouldn't be as interested.

[Night Rider Turbo]

I have to admit that I could not understand what was going on. The main character in this appeared to have alien arms! I'm just reminded of ET when looking at this. The steering wheel seemed to malfunction on its own. I doubt changing direction entirely would protect you forever. The game was really in your face.

I got a true sense of controlling this car with the alien. It did get too difficult as I pretty much crash no matter what I do. There's just so much stimulus in this, it's hard to keep track. It really is a pretty unique game from you. I appreciate that.

[Ratchet Head]

Well, at least I know my medals are all working! I was just amazed at how relentless this game was. You only had to be hit ONCE to die whereas the enemy took a THOUSAND hits. In most gams, it takes a lot more hits to kill the enemy, but this was nuts! That being said, this is in fact a good game.

The graphics are quite colorful and everything flows nicely together. The thing where the boss directly attacks the ground with the laser is the hardest part. It caused most of my deaths. It's hard to get around him when he hits the bottom. If you're a great gamer, check this out!

[L.I.F.E.]

I really liked this game! It didn't get hard until the knives came. That's how life is, of course! I could just not hold back the endless swarms of space enemies. I hope you don't have to deal with that when you get older. As of revewing this, I am 24 years old and do not have a girlfriend.

I hope I manage to at least get that far. 58 happens to be the age of my mother and she says it's the happiest time of her life. Of course, she's just an optimist. I liked how surreal it got with the green knives and everything. I hope I live beyond 58.

[Child Services]

I found this to just be a mediocre game. What I did not understand about it was how dull it was. It was mostly just the same enemies coming back and forth. I needed more kinds of weapons. I did think the powerups were pretty good. I kind of think Britney Spears child jokes are old at this point.

The graphics aren't that good either. I guess the sounds aren't too bad. It's just nothing that original. I'm not very good at this either. The music is actually fairly decent.
