▲VG Exiles is a sprite-based web series by R1665 on [[Newgrounds]]. It is a primarily action based series with a storyline based on the [[Exiles|Marvel Exiles]] series.
The first episode (episode 0) was launched on Newgrounds on May 10, 2008 and wasn't noticed by many. The next episode, launched on November 29 of the same year, was much well received and gained a lot of praise. The third episode (episode 2) [[Darker and Edgier|kicked the violence up a notch]] and was just as well received as the second if not more.
Line 12 ⟶ 11:
{{tropelist}}
* [[Apocalypse How]]: The backstory to Episode 3 reveals Kurtis Stryker's dimension has suffered a Class X-4. {{spoiler|Jill Valentine's is implied to be well on the way to a Class 3a at the very least.}}
* [[All There in the Manual]]: It has an impressive storyline and to fully understand it you must read about the character backgrounds after the credits.
Line 27 ⟶ 25:
* [[Badass Normal]]: Kurtis Stryker is described by the other Exiles as an ordinary human with no supernatural abilities. He's also incredibly resilient to ki attacks (especially Psycho Power), uses weapons of any technology effortlessly (including {{spoiler|The ''Soulcube''}}) and is a natural expert in martial arts. To add to that, the fight in Episode 3 {{spoiler|is not the first time he's taken on an alternate reality M. Bison before.}} His alternate reality red-shirted counterpart is no slouch either, {{spoiler|given that he kills Akuma in the Easter Egg}}.
* [[Battle Cry]]: ''''OPEN-WIIIIDE MUTHAFUCKAAA!!''''
* [[Berserk Button]]: The value of life is immeasurable to Jon Talbain. The needle on his rage-o-meter hits critical with every life
* [[Beyond the Impossible]]: Though Alvin Earthworm, creator of ''[[Super Mario Bros Z]]'', was the first notable Flash Series creator to do it, VG Exiles: Episode 3 officially holds the title as the biggest Flash movie ever to be uploaded to Newgrounds.com, capping off with a whopping 39.6mb.
** According to CE-Rap, who it seems is now [[Word of God|Co-Captain]], the initial episode actually hit a total of 43.4mb. R1665 was told by Newgrounds.com admin, Tom Fulp,that 40mb was the current limit that could be given for a flash project on the website, which led to the episode's current file size after some chopping.
Line 36 ⟶ 34:
* [[Camera Abuse]]: Displayed during Stryker's point blank execution of {{spoiler|M.Bison}}
* [[Cat Fight]]: Episode 1's main event.
* [[
** Used with hilarious efficiency in the same fight when
* [[Combat Pragmatist]]: Red-Shirted Stryker from Episode 3 proves to be a damn good one, wasting not a single moment gunning down Akuma in the Episode 3 Easter Egg. Though this is [[Played for Laughs|just for lulz.]]
* [[Could Have Been Messy]]: Subverted. {{spoiler|Remy Boudreaux}} catches and hurls the kunai that Ibuki threw at him. She ducks, avoiding it. It ends up lodging itself in the back of Makoto's head, killing her.
Line 86:
* [[Red Eyes, Take Warning]]: {{spoiler|Remy Boudreaux}}
* [[Red Herring Shirt]]: Appropriately, {{spoiler|Red-shirted Stryker}} in Episode 3.
▲* [[Right Back At Ya]]: {{spoiler|Remy Boudreaux}} takes an incoming kunai hurled at him by Ibuki and hurls it back at her.
▲** Used with hilarious efficiency in the same fight when {{spoiler|Remy Boudreaux}} sends Sakura flying with a swing of his staff. Talbain catches her, then tosses her back at him----leading to a flying kick to his face.
* [[Rooftop Confrontation]]: The stage for 1/3 of Stryker and M.Bison's fight.
* [[Rule of Cool]]: What the series is all about. You've got Johnny Cage's SOUL beating up Violent Ken's soul----Ken receiving the accumulated damage in one sitting once his soul is tossed back into his body. As a bonus, Johnny gets to keep any special abilities Ken has by doing this.
