Zone of the Awesome

"Hilarious!"

date: January 22, 2009

This video was very funny, the voice acting made it even better(mainly the explosions lol)...but yeah, it was really funny, and now I don't feel like the only one who every played ZOE(very awesome game!)...I also enjoyed the credit music, glad to see someone else who loves Megadeth...I'm trying to be as nit-picky as possible, suppose I'm not good at this kinda thing, but I just enjoyed this video, I suppose you don't see a ZOE parody every other day y'know? Hope I have been helpful :).

Good stuff! Hope to see more! ^_^

"Great Idea"

submission: Strumzor
date: July 13, 2007

This was a great idea for a game for the rock out contest, but I pretty much have the same thing to say as everyone else. It was definitely way too hard, I enjoyed that fact that you put one of my songs in there, but I also would've enjoyed getting to get to my song on the game haha. It does need to somehow be fine tuned so that it is at least a little easier, but as I said before, it is a good idea for a game, just needs some tweaking.

"Great game"

submission: Gateway II

I played this game on another website, but when I did play it it was really fun. I did have to get some help from some walkthroughs and whatnot, but I did get pretty far without them...all in all, it was a really fun game, good job! Hope to see more of the series.

FF8: Silence and Motion

"Sounds Great"

date: December 13, 2009

I always thought this one one of FF8's more weirder tracks, but I feel you did it justice, as said before it definitely sounds almost identical to the original, great work!

Falling to pieces/What's Done

"Fuck yeah!"

date: December 10, 2009

Dude, this sounds awesome!
For the intro/verse, the opening riff is great as always, and I really like the overlapping screaming/talking you did there, and then it's awesome when it's just solo screaming for the last phrase of the verse and the lyrics involve screaming, great stuff!
For the chorus(1 and 2), those vocals are incredible! Has a kind of Killswitch Engage feel to it, it's always great to hear someone who not only can scream and whatnot, but then turn around and sing something great like that, sounds fucking amazing dude. Also, the transition from the first chorus is pretty brutal, and the one after the second chorus has a cool change of pace as well.
For the blah, blah, stuff, solo, maybe it's just me, but I feel that the talking part when it breaks down could be more heavy, not like riffwise or anything, but maybe you could lean more towards shouting rather than just talking, dunno though, maybe it's just a matter of preference there. The solo on the other hand is fucking awesome, nice tapping! The breakdown during the solo sounds great as well!
The only thing I would consider tweaking in my opinion is the talking part after the second chorus that I mentioned before, but besides that it sounds spot-on! It's great to hear that you're coming out with an album, too! Are you gonna be releasing the album on iTunes or anything like that? I'd love to buy it when it's complete and give it a listen! If you want any more feedback on any of the other album tracks I'll be more than happy to help you out there, hope the album recording process is going well for you!

Thanks for the super kind words, dude. Thats awesome. This is just a rough up of the song. I actually just recorded the vocals just before putting it on newgrounds. I've redone everything. Especially the talking part, that was a 'made up on the spot" thing. My focus here was to get peoples opinions on the different choruses. I'm not going to leak which one I used either ;).

I was going to release ALL the songs on newgrounds at this quality, and sell the c.d. of it all done through a studio. However, the release here on newgrounds may not come to fruition. And here is why:

There have been a lot of FANTASTIC artists that have been here on Newgrounds but discouraged by the vote/rating system. Regardless of the score, it does directly effect their exposure..

It's basically a slap in the face to the artists that work hard to provide newgrounds with the best ORIGINAL, free music ANYWHERE on the internet. SO these artists are slapping newgrounds back in the face, by NO LONGER providing their music for free, and leaving the site. I want to show my support for them, as their loss here is greater than people think. So I may no longer submit anything that I've really worked hard on, to newgrounds either. Don't get me wrong, I have a lot of support and fans because of newgrounds. So only the people who have added me to their favorites will still get a "newground quality" cut of the C.D. for free, but that will be handled privately. :D

The audio portal isn't a joke. It shouldn't be treated like one.

The Successor (from FFVIII)

"Agreed"

date: December 10, 2009

This is definitely one of the more underrated tracks from FF VIII, but I absolutely love this song, has such a bitter sweet tone to it, gotta love it, great job!
