hello it is time to review ryu hoshi by human he is at http://thekingofpocket.webs.com/gameinfo.htm

i am once again reviewing a ryu character. this is an ngpc ryu made for human's king of pocket project. first and foremost i would ditch the hoshi part since it's not official. the sprites are edited so he's got more colors and shades, which is a great thing. some of his hyper moves don't connect properly with some characters, like shinku tatsumaki only hitting once or twice or the hadoken hitting only once. i suppose this has to do with how some characters work differently and since this ryu is meant for a full game it shouldn't be an issue. other than that he feels like ryu so good job. the rest is graphical nitpicking: the air hadoken looks weird because ryu's feet are just like his standing hadoken, i would've altered the pose a little. the normal ryu artwork during the supers looked out of place since he's a small ass ryu. weak joudan sokuto geri doesn't have a hitspark. i didn't really get why some moves created a huge hitspark on connect, i'm sure it has some meaning but it looked way too massive. the effect for his power charge looks disproportionately large. these are minor issues though and i am now interested in seeing how the rest of the project turns out

ryu hoshi is 8/10

it is now time to review zou by taichi tanukida he is at http://www.geocities.jp/ddd_0083/

zou is an elephant? i guess? i don't know if he's an original character or what. his sprites are pretty simple. the animation is basic but very good at the same time. his voice is a very nasal japanese dude and it works. he has enough moves to make him competent and fun to use. if you want an original character to mess around with give this one a try.

zou is 8/10

i am now reviewing supergirl by toni she is at http://cvgunited.com/index.php?action=downloads;sa=view;down=191

this is an edited character although some animations look completely original. her gameplay is versus style. as you can tell toni's really good at sprite editing and sprite creation. barring a handful of inconsistencies (her face during flight mode for example) she looks excellent. it would've been better if the rogue base for some animations wasn't so obvious (especially noticeable during one of her hypers which is a lot like rogue's, and one of her intros which resembles rogue's too much right down to supergirl saying "get ready"). toni fortunately got a pretty decent voice actor for her. some of the lines could've been better though, the "there" during her qcf+p move doesn't sound very menacing. her gameplay is pretty good overall, although some moves feel a bit stiff. ideally toni would pair up with a coder for other projects so he can put more time into making more great sprites. i'm not saying he's a terrible coder because everything here works as it should, but he's such a talented spriter that it'd be better if he could just focus on that instead of also having to deal with coding

supergirl is 8/10

Too bad that hardly happens.  Most of the time, spriters and coders do not share the exact same interests.

that strange hitsparks are because of Bucku's effects, I already fixed it 2 months ago (thou still not released, wait for Kyo) and he doesnt connect with other chars because of diffrent Blue Boxes, diffrent character size.

Thanks Titiln

hello i am now reviewing batman by alucard he is at http://www.scruffydragon.com/forum/index.php?app=downloads&module=display&section=download&do=do_download&id=15

this is an edited batman character with versus style gameplay. his sprites are pretty good except for the cape which looks pillow shaded and doesn't match other cps2 capes like bison and magneto. but it works and it's less noticeable in darker palettes. the animation is mostly good although a handful of them look dumb (back jump). considering that he's batman his moves are mostly bland (too many projectiles) and he feels very sluggish. some of his supers do too much damage for level 1s and the batmobile missile launch super was too goddamn cinematic. mvc3 is a good example on how to do cinematic supers that don't feel like they take an eternity. this is an okay character that is severely bogged down by its gameplay and coding. i wish someone else took the sprites and started from scratch, then this character would be very good, but right now he's just okay.

batman is 7/10 mostly because of the spritework

it is now time to review k' by ikarauga he is at http://page.freett.com/ikrgmugen/garage.html

i'm not really a kof player and i'm less of a k' player because i don't like k'. this k' is definitely "dealing with it" because he's permanently wearing sunglasses unlike regular ass k. there's nothing wrong with this character as far as i can't tell because i'm not a kof player but i'm sure kof purists will find something wrong with it but i can't (because i don't play kof) so this gets a 10. please stop asking me to review kof style characters unless they're dumb or weird or are massively edited. these reviews are not entertaining or interesting in any way

k is 10/10 i guess

i am now reviewing hitosyura by yuuki_n_slash he is available at http://mugenguild.com/forumx/index.php?topic=116566.0

this is apparently the main character in shin megami tensei 3, a game i'm not familiar with, although the character seemed interesting enough to make me look for youtube videos and notice dante is in that game therefore he is also in these screenshots. mugen makes dream matches come true. but anyway. this is a 3d model character and he looks excellent. the model looks good, the animation is great, he's got the right amount of frames, the effects blend in perfectly. aesthetically speaking this is an excellent example of how a 3d modeled character should look and animate like in mugen. the gameplay's fun, he's got several moves, i think he might have too many supers, i would've cut it down to 4. i don't know what else to say here.

hitosyura is 10/10

Agreed.

Just a thought.... Have you thought of doing comparative reviews?? You have both Alucard and Cybaster's Batman at your fingertips. There's also multiple versions of Ryu, Ken and whatnot (Warusaki's and P.o.t.S. come to mind). I'm sure plenty of people would like to see this. Reviews of multiple characters would help immensely especially if someone is looking for the best version of a particular character.
All of your Mugen Portrait needs may be found HERE.

I'd like to report two robots on the MFG forums: One is EXShadow. The other is Saikoro.
There should be a Saikoro plugin for Photoshop.

To be fair, MvC3 didn't exist beyond thought when that Batman came out (2009).

i am now reviewing noel by speedy9199 she is at http://speedy9199.webs.com/index.htm

similar to kof, i don't particularly like blazblue. the astral finish stuff with the music in the background was one of the animest things i've seen. the select screen portrait seems disproportionate and it looks bad. i really don't know what else to say because i can't vouch for this character being accurate or not, but she didn't seem broken or anything.

i give this a 9/10 because he says it's not finished and i suppose she works as she should but you shouldn't pay attention to my review or score because maybe she's horribly unaccurate and you'd be better off asking someone that actually plays and enjoys blazblue (not me)

I dont know, maybe you should make site with those reviews and just post news like "*Jewni <date> etc." 'cause its kind of annoying to dig through all those request/offtopic posts to read a review.

HEY YO. Someone 10 years ago promised he'd review my stuff when he'd get back to his REVIEWING GROOVE.

well, that time has come, knock yourself out.







BTW, I miss DDM's sarcastic and rough style, so be as harsh as possible and give me tons of Brazillie points instead of this shitty x out of 10 crap kthxbai.

Wow, I never thought Tiltin would give me that kind of score... Yeah, I've said many times that my characters are inaccurate and since I said that people shouldn't judge it on how accurate it is because I had no intent on making it that way anyway. Thanks a lot Tiltin  :D your awsome.
The answer to most of your mugen problems is to know more math.

How can you get the "feel" of a character if you are only touching a keyboard or controller?!?!

i'm not awesome. i don't know how to play blazblue so i couldn't really give it a low score on grounds of not liking blazblue. please get a review from someone that plays blazblue, it should be more useful.

the first post now lists all the reviews, hope that helps.
