Micro reviews, the internet edition.


Monday Richard's Micro reviews are returning after a long time away,

This week, The internet edition. so you can check out everything I'm talking about for free!

Fallout Nuka Break


Nuka break started life as a fan film, and a great fan film it was too, managing to capture the spirit of fallout providing us with three great characters in the form of an bad ass ex slave, a tough as nails ghoul and a bit on the soft side vault dweller.

This fan film was so good that its fans funded an entire series to be made, adding new characters. Sound effects from the game and expertly recreated props. Nuka break built on its humble beginnings to create something that is not only good, but will forever stand as this reviews favourite depiction of the fallout universe.


While it has already secured its funding for a second season, if you want to be a part of it, its kick starter is running until the 17th of june, so why not go be a part of it?

Bad lip reading.


Bad lip reading is one of those things on the internet that has been done before, you take footage of someone talking and purposely misread what they are saying, redubbing the video with the new words.

But I don't think it has ever been done better or had more effort put into it than by the youtube channel, “BadLipreading”

This channel not only takes songs and misreads the lyrics, but they also redo all the music and get genuinely talented singers in to sing the new lyrics. This creates songs that are not only funny, but in my opinion often better than the original songs.


However the channel is a mixed bag, while some of the songs are amazing, some of the others, especially the American political candidate videos, are lacklustre at best.

So for that reason I give it 3 out of 5 brains.









Super Mario Brothers Crossover.

File this under “I can't believe this has not been taken down yet”

Play through the original Super Mario for free online, not good enough? How about playing though it as characters from other games, complete with all relevant powers.

Its as cool as it sounds, playing super Mario as Samus or Link is just as epic as it sounds, not to mention the great amounts of amusement that can be gotten when you play as ryu and simply climb on top of levels skipping most of it.

This game is also updated all the time, adding new characters and styles of play. Well worth your time checking out

I have to admit, I am loving the 'Russian Unicorn' song!

And the Mario crossover game is the only way I've managed to complete that damn game!!
