[Metal Gear Crisis 1.1]

Good work

Well, first off a couple of the voice actors need pop screens. Although the acting itself is very nice.
Anyway, I enjoyed the cartoon, the script was cute and the graphics were nice. I think there's a few too many of LF's stock jokes thrown in to fill up space, but overall it works.
My main complaint is frequently the animation direction is a bit confusing. During the montage of Snake shoving guards into the locker especially, it was just a bit difficult to tell what he was doing until after he did it. Lip-synch was spotty, but we all know what a nightmare that can be, at least you didn't use a generic mouth loop (which I am guilty of on occasion). Also Snake's walk didn't look beleiveable, his torso was too rigid and didn't even bob up and down at all.
But the parts that are referencing the visual direction of the MGS games were done rather well. The animation skill is certainly there, (and I loved the title sequence) just needs a bit of fine-tuning, keep at it!
I look forward to the rest of the series, with a few minor improvements it could be another classic.

yeah i knew someone would notice the walking but, thanks for the advice i shall take it on board for the seqeul

[TmsT's Zero Wing Rhapsody]

Great idea

I love the concept, it's really cute. But a lot of lines felt really forced to fit into the song. Overall I liked it just for the clever idea, but the whole thing is marred by horrid instrumentals. The notes went painfully off-key several times, and that's not even couting the singing (which I'm much more forgiving on because frankly, most of us can't sing anyway)

I'd love to see this done over better instumentals, but still I at least enjoyed the concept.

TmsT responds:

What would be the point? It's Zero Wing. The original was terrible. If you want good instrumentals, please buy "The Best of Queen".
