[The Interrogation Part 2]

Okay this just got really bizarre, and it was enjoyable in a rather strange sense. Ted singing? Looks like he is insane after all if he thought that was good. Plus why were the prisoners acting like they were in a haunted house? Gotta admit, getting to punch Duke was awesome. Still, why did Bridget keep winking? God it was creepy, wanted to give her the same treatment as Duke.

[The Interrogation]

Compared to others in the series, this flash was rather boring, since it was just trying to get to the truth, which meant just Bridget talking pretty much the whole time. She still has the creepy wink thing going around, and the flirtation is certainly not working with her. At the end I like how you say that someone is lying, yet note she's a pathological liar. Gee, I wonder who will end up being the liar.

[Teletubbies get Fucked]

Remembering the issues with these types of games was back in 2000, I'm surprised this one actually survived after all those legal issues. Granted, this one wasn't all that good. Nothing special about the graphics, but more importantly, the gun was a pain to aim. it seemed to hit the teletubbies entirely at random, and it didn't feel like a shooting game in the slightest.

[The Angry Neighbors]

This one was okay, I liked that there was a bit of a twist this time. It's technically still a negotiation game, but having to stop and interject gives it a different kind of interactivity that made the game interesting, albeit a lot harder. I thought the graphics were very good, but the voice acting was rather poor, sounded like the guy was just mumbling some of the time.

[The Suspects]

For as many crazy flaws as there are in this series, I have to admit that I really liked this one. It's at least different and lets you get in a zone where you don't have to deal with all that much that's ridiculous. The old couple's rambling about absolutely nothing at least made sense in the grand scheme of things. That being said, the game is painfully difficult, since you say there's all these suspects but every option leads to Ted; who could it be then?

[The Tryst]

This one was alright, but compared to the first three parts of the series it was somewhat boring. The dialogue wasn't too bad, but I found it odd that Angie's story could segue into Yale's but not the other way around. That would have made this a lot more dynamic. It seemed weird how the game basically told you your choices didn't matter too, since that kinda defeats the purpose of making it a game.

It's too bad part two of the Tryst was not uploaded here, because wow... there are no words to describe part two.

[Customer Service]

Usually the options aren't overly ridiculous for these types of games, but that is not the case here. I have no idea why the homeless ghoul is randomly there, and the options to get the correct ending are entirely unrealistic. Not only that, but the attitude on both sides is never something that would happen in real life. It's unique for the site at least, but perhaps that's a good thing.

[The Lusty Barfly]

Wait, this is the start of the Ambition series? I thought it was the suicide bomber. Guess this is the prequel, that would make sense, since it's the same woman, or at least the same sprite. The choices are alright, but honestly the woman was a bit creepy. She did this half-wink thing randomly that actually scared me a bit. It was also somewhat easier than the other ones, and at least a gun in this situation made a lot more sense than in the suspicious cop.

[The Raise (Revised)]

The flash wasn't half bad for 2000. The animation was choppy, but solid for the time, and the music was a nice touch. However, there was one fatal flaw. The title was "the raise", but you never actually get your raise, just some work on the side if you're successful, and that's after going a rather convoluted route. If you actually tried this dialogue with your boss, well, it would not go well.
