Simply put, this is outdated. The graphics are blocky and simple, barely look like zombies, there's no music or sound other than gunshot, and there's nothing to make you want to play this when there are so many better newer shooting games over the past two years.
Simple animation that presented multiple viewpoints (though it was sometimes difficult to hear some of the fish), and because of that wasn't sure if there was a single point (is Eminem a demon or a hero?), but that was probably the point - for the viewer to make their own decision.
Considering its age, I suppose this is OK, but unfortunately, Flash games aren't like 8-bit NES games or movies, in which they can retain greatness or nostalgia after age. This is just bad, with crude graphics and very little to do, even for a shooter.
This was a good little b&w drug noir-type Flash (major props on using score from "Requiem for a Dream", that's probably my favorite movie score ever!). Its major problem though was that it had no direction, and just flowed indiscriminately from person to person. We never have the slightest hint of who they are, or even really what they're doing. Or was that the point? The situations seemed rather exaggerated, although not to the point of comic satire.
Christmas in March? I thought it was in December, or at least April. Seriously though, this was a bit of an odd piece, and given the foreign language aspect and the music, it reminded me of one of those European experimentalist films, since those often have twists in their themes like this... strange stuff. Animation was top notch though.
This was an odd one, but actually pretty good considering it came from 2000. The marionette/puppet style of the mouth movement actually looks quite good, and the MST3K crew was a nice addition. The re-editing of sound clips was also done well, but was the laughter supposed to have come from the MST3K guys? Just wondering...
A little too short, in my humble opinion, but thats OK. Another neat little crossover, even if it was much littler than the other I-Mockery crossovers.
Poor Orc. Oh well, I guess that's why there aren't any of them around anymore. Nice little genre cross-over, but what's the point of having to click OK if that's the only choice? That's just a little strange, unless this has secrets like Castlevania or Squigly Fish...
I really liked this game, and would've given it an ever higher score, except I suck and never beat it, and that annoyed me. Now I know why your opponent referred to as the "bastard CPU fish" and "evil green computer fish" though. Since I knew I wasn't going to beat it anyway (tried every race several times, the best I got was a tie, and that STILL counts as the CPU winning... f'n laptop keyboard!) I looked for (and unlike in I-Mockery Castlevania, actually found) the secrets, which are really funny, and since I'm such a sore loser, I enjoyed these more than the actual game. Even though its hard as hell on a laptop keyboard, its still a cool game though, and maybe in the eventual network play I'll find someone worse than me that I can beat.

Point, shoot. Bang. Bang.

Simple & Quaint
