The YTP Soundboard
Rated 3.5 / 5 stars September 30, 2008
MOAR!
I think you could really benefit by making an all encompassing soundboard, perhaps make one with multiple tabs for various game and movie series and keep similar charachter sounds together.
Or maybe you can make a YTP with each different one going to a specific game.
Yeah, the description explains why I couldn't.
Please recommend this for the soundboard collection.

Flash Plinko
Don't let the numbers on the score and even my review fool you. There is nothing wrong or technically bad with the game (well, except for one thing), it's just The Price Is Right's Plinko game with your final score determined by the pegs you hit, your time and your landing location.
That said, it's not a full OMG AWESOME GAME, but a semi-addictive time waster. Not too much skill involved, other than maybe timing and level memorization. Drop your coin and hope it hits the most pegs.
My problems: 1) The coin thick outline gives this flash its own style (isn't it supposed to be like that Angry Emoticon game?) but its alittle misleading on where the coin is going to land on the peg....not that it matter too much as you can't control it anways...just a litle awkward with the peg goes past the outline.
2) A single "tilt" option would help this game alot. My apple got literally stuck on one peg which accumulated alot of points...but It wouldn't move. I've notice after 3 or 4 peg bumps on top of a peg, the peg will just seem "throw" the coin in which ever direction it's closest in, but the direction my apple (coin) was up, and it just kept bouncing. If I had like a pinball tilt option, I could have possibly beat the high score easy (my luck, it would have landed on 0)
Contra 20th Anniversary
Rated 4.5 / 5 stars August 18, 2008
Pretty darn good
I kinda agree with HONKHONKHONKHONK a little. It is great, but it doesn't emulate it 100%, but extremely close. I played hard because I expected Normal to be too easy. Haven't played normal yet, but the problem is that in hard, the turrets are a little tough to take down. In the original, they could get you if you weren't careful and you could take them down before they even shot your (or shoot them some, dodge other enemies and then finish off). Here, its like they have twice as much armor (maybe it is easier on Normal, but I don't want to play Contra that is too easy, Maybe Ill give it a try later). Pair that with enemies coming from behind (I don't think they did that in the NES version...correct me if I'm wrong) and it made ir really tough. Not to mention playing with a keyboard for this type of game isn't efficient (I have a Joystick to play this with, but don't feel like hooking it up yet).
Part of the lack of emulation was the limitation of the NES system. It could only display so many enemies at a time. You get more than 4 or 5 enemy sprites on the screen and they start the flicker just so the system can handle it. With this, you got them coming full throttle, and tons of them at that.
The enemies have a strange moving pattern sometimes which can cause chaos. Sometimes its good when they fall off the screen from the left side, but then it was weird on the next to last turret on the first level. On the original, all you had to do was jump and shoot and you know you would get them, but sometimes they would almost jump over you or somehow get between your shots. This didn't help when trying to take out the next to last turret (which are stronger than needed)
Still, this is great, I'll add it to my faves and play it with may gamepad when I'm not just playing around. Great game.

Ultimate love/hate relationship
I've always hated the level, but loved its music. I glad I found this remix because it needed to be metal.

I so believe you..
Proof? Links? Confessionals? None here, just some text with some back ground music. I'm not completely doubting these laws, but nothing here is to prove it and this could have easily been a normal video instead of flash.
