Brawl Hangover

March 18th, 2008

All day Monday I had a Brawl hangover. It’s a very interesting phenomena.
For instance, when you play Brawl the screen flashes every time a Smash Ball appears. I was seeing this all the time and thinking, “The Smash Ball is mine!”
And when you open an Assist Trophy, it makes this shattering noise. I was hearing that all day.
I had about fifteen different songs stuck in my head.
My fingers were twitching uncontrollably.
But all this mental torture still couldn’t tear me away from playing Brawl.

Snake vs. Sonic

March 15th, 2008

Okay, it’s twenty minutes after my previous post. I cleared Classic Mode with Solid Snake. I faced Sonic at the end and I got him. He was basically destroying me because Snake has some pretty slow moves, but good thing for that Smash Ball. Sonic was no match for Snake’s grenade launcher.

So I tried Sonic out on Battlefield against Olimar. He doesn’t have a projectile move which is bad but it’s okay. His Final Smash is his only weakness: be careful where you go with that. It took me off screen and then I lost the power and fell to my blue, speedy death.

Also, now that I have Sonic (my thirtieth character) I have enough characters to unlock Mr. Game & Watch. (You have to clear target test with thirty characters on any difficulty.)

Pit vs. Sonic

March 15th, 2008

So in Brawl, when you have cleared Classic Mode ten times you get to face Sonic. I chose Pit to be my tenth classic player because I knew he was the only one that could take Sonic. So I play the whole mode without losing a life, and I get to Sonic. I was creaming him. I had 0 % damage and he had 120 %. But then… He started… I can’t even describe it… he’s way faster than you can ever expect. It was like there was twenty of him and I couldn’t keep track of any of them. So I don’t have Sonic.
