Regarding patching, I could honestly not give a damn about HOW many exploits and techniques they come up with. I'd be more concerned about the balance of the game in a character vs. character setting...

...and better online options.

YES VERY MUCH THIS.

Yeah, the whole "Kirby can inhale bombs and make people go boom" is a lie. :(

Wario can, though. :/

This just in: Cheating Device is being considered for use in forcing a competitive edge into Brawl.

Oh wow the Smash community seems hellbent on becoming more of a laughing stock in the fighting games arena.

honestly, part of me loves advanced techniques since they give an edge to experienced players that button mashers random luck cant overcome. Though thats not what SSB is about. If it was then they would have balanced the characters in melee better. Brawl seems better, but still has some characters that are stronger then they should be Ike

You know, if they actually have to rely on a goddamn Game Shark for their tournament play...

Maybe they should just go back to Melee, and leave the sane people alone. :/

To which I replied, well, yeah.

Hm.

You know, while I mock them for intentionally changing the game to make it what they want...Instead of adapting the game as best they can...One thing about that is very very sexy to me.

Goddamn fucking tripping. I know they only put it in to avoid Foxtrotting (Which, hey, got specifically named and recreated in Brawl anyway) being used like crazy but god, I hate tripping.

If other fighting game players can just stick with a previous game then why can't the Smash scene? People hated the fuck out of games like Third Strike and DOA 4 but I don't see anyone wanting to hack those games to remove parrying or change the counter system. Maybe it's because they're playing almost a different genre with only 3 games in it, all of them Smash Bros.

Basically why can't Brawl be competitive in its own way? Why does it have to be like Melee?
