You probably don't remember my review for Madness 4 where I explained that I felt the madness series was going downhill and it didn't have the same luster for me. Let me say right out you fucking blew me away with this one! It was a perfect mix of style from Apothesis the action from Redeemer and the wackiness from Avenger finished of with a mix of adrenaline and lsd.
I loved when the battle finally moved out of the hallways and back outdoors. The barren landscape and oversized setting sun just seemed to fit perfectly. The ending was equally hilarious and awesome. If this is the final madness it is a perfect end to one of the greatest series on Newgrounds.

Congratulations on milking the popularity of DBZ to get your crummy sprite movies to pass. 80% of the movie was two sprites floating motionless in the air having a conversation. I don't mind if people use sprites because they don't have artistic ability, but thats no excuse for lazyness.

Dude, it's just a SHORT!!! It's all a part of one episode.
Why do I make them short? Because Newgrounds is being so anal that it won't let me hold more than 2 submissions more than 2 MB in size, thus I have to keep these small. You just gotta watch the first one, then this one, and you'll get what you're looking for.
I'm sorry there's no obliging you people.

Neat idea, but theres a major bug. you can just place your piece over the computers so you can win without any trouble. Technically someone could just not cheat to get the full experiance but I tought I might bring it to your attention

Wow, this is such a perfect combination of AYB and bohemian rhapsody, mixed together with just the right amounts of style and cheeseiness. When first saw the title I was expecting yet another sprite movie set to Bohemian Rhapsody but not only did you not use any sprites but you redid the whole song! I also like the little extras thrown in, I didn't notice the ziggo lighter till the third time I watched it.

Rightclick on the ending screen and select "Play" from the pop'd-up Flash menu, and you'll get BONUS FOOTAGE! :D

The computer isn't very smart at all. There were times whe I would have 2 in a row and it wouldn't go for the block. Plus I figured since you were describing it as x-treme it would at least have some rock music in the backround.

You missed out on adding all the thing that make mortal kombat cool. Where were the fatalities? Why didn't scorpion fall onto a bed of spikes. Although it wasn't bad for one of your first movies.

The major problem holding back this game is that there really isn't that much skill involved, it all seems pretty random. Either your gonna get the plop plops you need to win or your gonna get a bunch of dark plop plops. In a game like tetris attack both players are getting the same thing, so strategy makes the difference instead of luck.
On the up side the whole storyline was well done and you can tell that shitloads of effort was put into this and you worked really hard. You did alot of extra things you didn't have to like adding more than one player, which really helpes the experiance.
Author's Response:
About the skill thing, yes there IS skill involved. Different characters (computer) have different skills. The higher the skill, the greater the computer thinks when shooting blasts at you. Low skill=computer shoots blasts anyhow.
And then there is the level. When you set it to 5, it's just normal. If you set it to 1, the computer almost never hits its plops (but still, the level will increase when you progress in the story).
And if you set level to 9, the computer hits all plops and knows when not to hit plops.
So eventhough it's a random thing, the skill and level exists because it makes the computer either stupid or clever, regardless of what plop pops out!
And thank you very much for the second paragraph of your review!

This is an amazinly addictive game. The sprite work isn't that great the music is basic and the jump noise is too loud and addictive, but the whole combo crazy gameplay makes for an incredibly addictive game.
So far my highest score is around 8500 with a 36 combo.

"The sprite work isn't that great"?!? I spent ages on the sprite work! You have no idea how I fixed up the background on Bowser Bashing and Cave Chaos. Maybe you think it's not that great because you can't notice the stuff I've done. That's gotta be it, yea. Yes, that's it. NO other possible explanation. Of course not. It's impossible. My sprite work IS great, and no one can say anything about it. It's completely absurd, can't you see that the sprite work is absolutely fantastic? Open your eyes, and see beyond the veil of reality! It's all part of the big deception. They don't want you to think the sprite work is great, but I tell you, it is. Trust me on this one, have I ever lied to you before? Remember that time you climbed up in the tree and I told you to jump down and you broke your arm? That's the only time you shouldn't have trusted me. Stupid bastard. But now I'm serious, my sprite work is awesome! If you don't believe me the darkness will come, and the rats will eat your eyes! All of the world and humanity as we know it will be engulfed in an ever on-going cycle of pain and misery, and all just because you thought my sprite work isn't that great. You wouldn't want to be held responsible for that, would you? So please, for the sake of everything that you hold dear, admit that you love my sprite work and worship it like the divine creature it is. Please, just understand, my sprite work is great.

But it really could have used better voice acting. Also the backround characters walking by could have reacted to what was going on, by laughing or by giving grim wierd looks.

You shouln't rip off asteriods, it has always sucked. The only reason it was popular was because it was the first arcade game with a high score system. Besides that this was a decent asteriods clone with no frills at all.
