Topic: Super Smash Bros Brawl Megathread [SPOILER PARADISE]

[gec05]

I'm already raping my friends both in the original and in Melee right now.

I'm prepared.

[GCool]

Hmmm, I prefer training in super-speed. Yes, slow-mo is good for learning techniques, weaknesses and the like, but training in superspeed makes the normal game seem sooo much slower. S'like playing Guitar hero on hard for weeks, then playing a deul against someone on easy...

Either way, I allready whoop most of my friends consistantly (I played the original today for the first time in years, and still took down everyone I fought against easily), but I wouldn't stand a chance against people who play regulary...

Playing the origional it actually feels so much slower after some melee.

[gec05]

I like the old one. I can throw objects at people who are recovering from a distance.

[Neoteric]

I don't like practising in slo-mo or super speed. It completely messes up your attack timing.
And I don't like training in training mode as you can't use the C-stick. Ugh.

As for being prepared... I'm okay, I guess. I main Pikachu, which is a rather odd choice next to the Falcos/Marths that my friends play. I think this video shows where I am quite well. I'm definitely better than the Pikachu, maybe not quite as good as the Marth.

Although, I'm a pessimist, and watching ChuDat (who was ranked really highly in the melee tournament scene) play Pika in Brawl, I might not be as bad as I think...

Bah, I can't wait for this stupid game and they haven't even given it a release date over here.

I just watched some gameplay videos of brawl. I wanna play soooooo bad. 

[Ultramarine]

Don't we all Blarg, don't we all .
Eh... a month won't hurt will it . (excluding EU)

[gec05]

What's even worse is that I read from a reliable source that even if you import both a JP Wii and a copy of Brawl, you can't play online in "anyone" mode but only spectate and play friends. If you EU members want to import the US copy, you'll be limited to playing with registered friends.

[stuck]

I heard they were selling a modified copy of the japanese version that plays on US Wiis and that ran for $1000 dollars. It's ridiculous, these people need to be patient.

Sounds more like a ploy to get naive consumers to empty their wallets. The only way I could see that happening is if they a) reverse engineered the game and b) bought an expensive CD stamping machine.

BTW, Brawl is what seems to be the first Wii game that runs on dual-layers DVDs.

[gec05]

Here's a YouTube playlist of the entire SSE story mode. View at your own discretion but I relish watching every bit of all the cutscenes.

[Luminar]

As far as I know, once discs are printed they're read-only. You can't "modify a copy" of brawl to have unlocked online play because the limitation isn't on the disc. That and the US/EU servers arent even open yet...

[gec05]

Looky.

[PatMan33]

Holy Moses! That is awesome!

[Ultramarine]

Nice , I just can't look away from the flash.
Eli= pwn

[GCool]

Looky.

Made my day.
