Rated: 13+

Update to ParoVadius

Ah, ParoVadius. A bizzare flash movie that hails from 2002, that was inspired by a simple mountain scrolling gif. The original ParoVadius was pretty cool movie, but it had some flaws, and those flaws were corrected and the overall experience was enhanced with ParoVadius: RESET. It starts off with the Konami World buildings getting CREAMED by a blimp, and a crapload of chaos insues. We join our heroes, the badass Slogra and the loveable Gaibon as they're watching their TV set, and the rest just goes from there. I really enjoyed this movie, it has plenty of Konami-related humor, and is just FULL of nice little effects in the background, and of course there are some "subliminal messages" scattered about. Can you find them all? Another neat touch was the SNES styled remote button, which let you browse the movie frame by frame, incase you missed something important. Now since this is a short film, I can't really give it a in-depth review without spoiling it all, so just take my word for it and click the link to it above (check out the original first so you can compare both of them) and GOOOO!

Pros: Nice effects, good story, and a MUST SEE for any Konami freak.

Cons: Some dialogue is unfinished due to a MIA voice actor, and the overall movie is kind of short.

This flash movie earns a triumphant 9/10.
