SDO0M'S HACK REVIEWS
These are my reviews for hacks that others have done. I'll mainly be reviewing vertexes and PSAs as well as stages from time to time. I'll normally choose which hacks to review, but from time to time I'll let you guys vote on what you want to see.
Feel free to leave comments and feedback on what you think of the reviews, as well as requests as of what you would like to see.

Good reviews man.
May I ask where you got those "epic" battle portraits?

Thanks and they're the battle portraits included in Brawl Minus XD I still have the entire Brawl Minus codeset in my SD, just replaced the Minus PSAs with the regular vBrawl characters.
EDIT: Updated poll. The hack review for Shadow by mastaklo will be up fairly soon.
Wow these Reviews are good and interesting :)
Nice Job and Idea :D

Thanks ^^
The Shadow review is done I'll admit to not being quite as entertaining in this one. I was concentrating more on my actual points this time around XD:

You have a perfect commentator voice :P
I can see these will be useful to me in future as I'm always kinda sceptical about PSA's.
Alot of the PSA's I've played have been 'clunky' and broken, so having Pros and Cons listed about the better ones is tré cool :)

Cheers ^^ Though I actually kind of dislike my voice normally. I'm usually trying to disguise my actual voice with vocal impressions XD Though funnily enough, I speak more normally on camera than I do in real life.
Anyways, the first option to reach 10 votes will be the one I review next.
Also, if you guys have anything to add on about how I can improve the layout of these reviews then feel free to say. I'm open to feedback. Though one thing I won't be doing is making a script (yes all of these have been without any sort of script). Reason being is that:
1) It takes longer to think about and write a script
2) When I read off a script, I talk faster and it doesn't sound normal
Eh, I'm sure everyone hates their own voice :P
The Improv commentary works well for these.
Scripting something like this would be awkward and feel too... umm... Formal.
I would suggest pausing your video while you catch up on your audio commentary though, So you aren't rushing to keep up with the stuff being shown. You can always re-edit it again afterwards :)
Wait. SDoom is BRITISH?! O_o

Yes.
Also, I loved the Shadow review. Nice work, Sdo0m.

You didn't know that he lived in Europe? :srs:
No I did not know he lived in Europe.
>_> Which is seriously making my stomach hurt since he's using NTSC Brawl...

I still play PAL Brawl if I want to play online and without hacks. There is no reason to use it when I can use NTSC Brawl with USB Loader.
Dude Old Chap.
Sorry but you are not allowed to view spoiler contents.
And now, like, enough talk about britishness...

>_> Well... okay, I'll give you that. At least you're still using PAL Brawl and that's good enough for me.
Respect +1 (NOW GO PORT STUFF FROM NTSC TO PAL :af:)
Wow... I love these reviews! You're doing a viewtiful job on them!
P.S. I just made Cal's Clouby, Dederoth and Shadow the Kong go to 10 votes XD!

So it's decided then! Next review will be Cal's Clouby, Dederoth and Shadow the Kong :)
After that I shall do the following in order:
- Skull Kid PSA
- Master Emerald Shrine + Water Temple
- Thor PSA
- 4 vertexes from 4 different users
- An old-ish but awesome PSA
I'll let you guys ponder over the last two ;)
Nice work on the reviews. Helping guide others through the veritable sea of hacks... Such a humanitarian. ;).

This.
Been here for a couple months now, still digging my way through interesting hacks. s_s
Looking forward to more of these. :)
- An old-ish but awesome PSA
can be CoN Nautro PSA :D
this one is still awesome
this is the best Ike(no Cloud) PSA made

Nope, it's even older. Pretty decent guess though :P
Like, soo... when exactly can we expect this?

Duh, shouldn't be too hard to, like, figure that out...
Probably, like, this Zero by Eldiran, rite?
SDo0m I love all your reviews man, I really enjoy watching them. The jokes about Shadow the Kong made me laugh a lot. xD
Can't wait to watch some more. ;D
Frame skipping was epic!! :D
Yeah that Shadow is very dated. I agree with literally everything said for that. Yours is certainly the superior. Also I never expected you to sound British. I like it. Great review, and I look forward to more.
I can't remember if I asked this or not, but will your shadow or other hacks get Minus versions? I am hooked on it, and I know you use it so... okthxbai.

Most likely. Though creating Minus versions is quite difficult. It's not as simple as making attacks faster and stronger and giving the character graphic effects. They need a new gimmick that allows the character to feel fresh but familiar so I'll need to put extra thought into them.
Soo, about time I replied to this review...
I'm actually quite surprised that you picked Issun out of all my other submissions... if I had known that you'd actually be reviewing four, I actually would've guessed that you'd pick Beast Ganon for the fourth.
Anyway, when I understood your cons about him right, you dislike how the textures on his "cape" stretch? Well... for that thing it was either making it in (almost) one single color, which makes it look worse in my opinion, or having the details stretch a little... I prefered the latter.
I'm actually kinda surprised that you mention how low-quality the textures for Issun's shoes are in comparison to the rest of his model... at the time I started with those, I was already quite bored of working on him, and didn't really do anything about them anymore.
As for him using actual textures... yeah, you were right about that, but there was one major problem with the textures I got: Except for the hat and his arms and legs were only in black and white, so I had to re-color them all by myself...
Anyway... as for the other three, I'm kinda surprised that Clouby is your favourite... back when I was working on both him and Dederoth, my main focus actually was on Dederoth... Clouby was just some sort of bonus thing to go along with him.
Not that I'm complaining about the fact that you still like him, though...
As for the stage: Almost right. It's Ryoshima Coast. Name's easy to remember because you can't spell "Ryoshima" without "Yoshi".
(And my suggestion remains... play Okami. Trust me, you'll only thank me when you actually do it... :P )
Anyway, thanks for reviewing these. I really enjoyed watching this.

Yeah, Okami's models use some property in the model itself to color those. You did an awesome job on it, though.
Epic frame skipping.
So when can we expect to see a Skull Kid review? It works out well cause Beyond just revamped his vertex (like it needed it).
I don't know if someone already said this but, it would be cool if you made some kind of short intro haha,
at least, I think it's cool... And by the way, good reviews man, hope you're done with the skullkid one soon.
Regarding your description, it's possible to have Sheik/Spider Man or anyone with the roster have their own victory theme.

your reviews are great i hope someday you review the mewtwo vertexes and psas
Cool thanks (i think you like my hacks abit :D)
btw up-Smash is from Falco
mario´s up-smash failed at porting
Yeah, that Goku does not seem like Goku. He is more like a collage of other characters, and I agree that lot of it seems really clunky. And it is odd how the Kamehameha just kinda starts like a rectangle instead of coming out of his hands at an angle. Meh...
Skull Kid is up next, let's see how it turns out.
Eh... I thought you were going to reply to my reply? lolwut.

Or maybe just some... because there are MANY xP
