Decline of Video Gaming

Post by bicostp »

Have you guys watched this series by the Super Flash Bros.?They're abimated really well (almost as well as some of the 15 minute cartoons on Adult Swim IMO).

<a href="http://newgrounds.com/portal/view/158631">Decline 1</a>- Set in 2058, 3 friends go to EB Games and bash how games seem to have gotten worse in the recent past.

The art in this one is somewhat lacking, as can be expected from the first in a series.

-----------------------------
<a href="http://newgrounds.com/portal/view/191110">Decline 2</a>- Set in 2004. The same prople win free tickets to E3 from Gaming Ordinators National Association of Developing Systems. There they get attacked by some somewhat useless villains: the heads of Konami, Capcom, and Square Enix.

This one takes a while to load, so they include 2 minigames you can play while it loads: Mario Does the Weekly Shopping and Extreme Iorning (they're a lot more fun than they sound :lol:). If you didn't like the art of Decline 1, don't worry; it is greatlyimproved in Decline 2.

-----------------------------
<a href="http://newgrounds.com/portal/view/209256">A Decline Christmas</a>- The Decline Christmas special!

It's a bunch of holiday themed shorts, including a Pac-Man for Dim, some Decline action figure ads, and of course, Gamer Santa.

-----------------------------
<a href="http://newgrounds.com/portal/view/253824">Decline 3</a>- (copied fromtheNewgrounds page) Decline 3 has arrived! Over 15 minutes long, this cartoon (set in 2005) follows the further exploits of Dim, Dan, JT, Tom, The Evil Developers along with other familiar faces.

I like this one best. The crew goes to Japan to go on a game show. But the host isn't who he first says he is... The graphics in this one are the best of the 4.

DIAL-UP WARNING!! These movies are freakin' HUGE! (roughly 4megs for #2, 5 megs for #3) Let them load in the background, and play the "Legend of Zelda: The Lampshade of No Real Signifigance"! It's a fun little RPG game with many many game, SFB, and Double Helix references!

What do you think of them?

EDIT: OhMyGodI'mOnFire! :P (watch to get the joke)

I just watched the first one, I need to check out some of those new titles
Mario: Accountancy
Mario Sets the VCR
Mario Does the Weekly Shopping
This was really great.

So, have you seen the new Star Wars game?
Nah, all those games are crap.
Obi-wan, what do you think?
I have a bad feeling about this.

Decline 3 was just stupid. The developers constantly trying to destroy people who criticize their games was funny, ONCE. Decline uses the same joke over and over, and you guys don't realize it. :shock:
