Wow impressive

This was some seriously thought out stuff man, I was impressed with all the little details you added, I.E. his shadow, the clouds, little things like that, you even paid attention to his actual expressions and mannerisms from the original lol. Only one thing I didn't like was the pad room scene, just kind of seemed like it was just thrown in there, not as thought out as the rest I guess. Could of had the tv scene with a quick flash of the pad room to show he was hallucinating then blacked out the scene with just the snoop audio playing for an implied break out. Anyways this was sweet man =D

Animation was great!

But if your friends act like that from not getting a blizzcon ticket they have issues lol I've always wanted to go, but to be honest it was a tad overrated until this years. Not really their fault tickets get sold out pretty much the second they go on sale.... millions of people trying to hit up the same website at once lol Think about patch days :P Anyways nice animation.

Not bad

I don't know what everyones problem was, this isn't the latest 360 fighter or some HD crap on Ps3. You said it's still in beta, so I'd suggest making a few more character models,even if it's only a deformation of your current ones (assuming 3d import?). Add a few more move sets and animations as well. Other then that the visuals look fine, it runs very very smooth and overall you're headed in the right direction IMO.
