Ericho's game Reviews on Newgrounds

[Jack Black Soundboard]

The most popular one ever!

Of all the soundboards ever made, I think this is in fact the most popular soundboard on the entire Internet. I hear Jack Black swearing all the time using these sounds. I still have no idea what crazy movie this is from! I really find it funny that he talks about wanting a Coke that if half Diet and half regular. Coke actually did in fact release a product that was exactly that a few years ago! He is a great actor and while this may not be his most famous role, it certainly captures his essence.

[Phone Booth Soundboard]

The year of soundboards

More soundboards were made this year than really any other year. It is too bad that these things seemed to simply die out in addition to the prank phone calls used with them. While I never saw the movie "Phone Booth" my brother did. This is good at capturing the best moments as presented in the movie, at least to my knowledge. Some of the dialogue is not that descriptive and a bit too short, but overall it is loyal to the feel of the game. You are a true credit to all fans of this movie.

[Defend Your Castle (Full)]

It does look old

The saddest thing is that this game has simply been imitated so many times, it really has lost some of its edge. It is still enjoyable to play as a monument to Newgrounds as well as defense games in general. I am not sure if this was the first defense game, but it was definitly the first that got really popular. The only irritating thing is that this game just goes on and on and on. It is of course always entertaining to kill those annoying little stick men. I admire you guys for making this significant.

[Judd Nelson Soundboard]

I wish I had seen it!

When I first heard that guy's name I could have sworn it was "Doug Nelson". This is a great soundboard because it has dozens (if not hundreds) of individual lines. It really captures the essence of what made this guy so popular. While there was not much of a background, you really do not need it for something this well done. There were no real problems in this, so any fan of "The Breakfast Club" should thoroughly enjoy this. His voice sounds assertive but still has a casual ring to it somehow.

[Dennis Hopper Soundboard]

RIP Dennis Hopper

It is great to review this seeing as how Dennis Hopper just died this year. I can tell these are all from "Speed" and I am disappointed that I only saw parts of the movie and not the whole thing. This is possibly his most famous and arguably his best role. Everything in this soundboard was presented in a very clear manner and I could not find any sound problems. It is too bad I have yet to hear of anyone using this to make a prank call. I would never do it myself because you can get in trouble with the police that way.

[! Fishy !]

You broke the mold!

This game is really fun to play because it does focus a lot on simplicity. While it may not have been the most influential, it has good enough graphics to really like. It is a pity you guys at XGen are not making more successful submissions to Newgrounds like this. While it may not have much of a background, this game is addictive because it seems to really have no end. Be careful when swooping around to get the smaller fish. I used to have some goldfish but then they all died like the ghost fish in this.

[Bubble Trouble]

This is MiniClip

It was interesting to hear exactly how MiniClip works as all these submissions could not possibly be made by the same person. One high factor is how well the gameplay, particulary how simple. It is especially fun to see it get harder as it goes on. The best strategy is probably to just hit one part and then keep going to one side down to the last part. I appreciate being able to hold up a thing for awhile if you do not hit anything. The protagonist looks good, even though I am not sure what his design has to do with the game.

[Lost your Marbles]

Such great graphics

I do not know why this is in the "Puzzles" section because it seems like a more standard game. Then again, I really can not tell what kind of category it should go into. It could really count as an action game because you are actively going around and jumping and stuff. I am so glad you won an award and recieved recognition for this great game. It is so much fun to just take your little guy and travel all around these strange mazes. The aerial view is great and I love how it imitates CGI effects but still does not throw in a bunch of useless flashy stuff.

[Bill Murray Soundboard]

Nice soundboard

The best thing is about this is that all the sounds are clear and have high quality. Most soundboards only seem to do one movie, and if that is true for this then I know it was "Ghostbusters". It was just funny to hear Bill Murray say the f-word. I like him as an actor although I do wish I had seen some of his better movies like this and "Groundhog Day". It is hard to come up with a single phrase that makes him appear the funniest in this. It was also an odd choice for a purple background, but it worked out fine.

[12 holes of Xmas]

What a Christmasy feeling!

I really like this game because it has all the basic things a minature golf game should have, but adds all the cuteness of Christmas. I think it is not detailed that much, but definitley more so than a standard golf game. It is fun just to hear the nice music everywhere. I like the little white arrow outline that appears when you are about to golf. It is especially funny to see the little Christmas decorations everywhere. While Christmas is a far way off now, you certainly entertained people with this.
