At least we've gotten past the "This character would be awesome" phase.

Did we?

I mean, seriously...wouldn't Megatron be an awesome ass character to play as? And then his clone could be Starscream!

Jam it back in, in the dark.

That's awesome, unlike that Pokemon trainer voice sample video.

There's nowhere I can't reach.

AIM is better than Skype, seriously. Skype is the biggest piece of shit chat client in the world.

I'm surprised no one's mentioned Ventrilo...Isn't that supposed to be the #1 voice chat client for gamers? I thought it was huge with WoW and CS:S clans.

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.

And I finally paid off my Brawl reserve.

I've tried using it a bunch of times to do voice chat with, but it never really worked right for me. The voice would always cut out and there were always disconnects from the service. Granted my friend that I chatted with lives about 800 miles away from me, so the distance might have been messing it up.

I am a dolphin, do you want me on your body?

I'd be willing to do voice chat with people I know, but random strangers? Hell no. I have it on pretty good authority that it's bad enough on Xbox live, having to listen to some 12 year old whose voice hasn't even changed screaming profanities at you anytime you have even the slightest advantage. I don't really care to have that here.

This is probably why Nintendo didn't bother putting in voice chat for the game.
Why roll out a Wii-specific headset when you'll most likely hear some "Dude I haven't showered in two days I've been playing Smash Bros hyuck hyuck" or "FUCK YOU FAGGOT YOU FUCKING CHEATER!!! AAAAAGHGHHGHGHGH! SHUT THE FUCK UP MOM I'M PLAYING A GAME FUCK FUaaAAGHHHGHHhhhCK!!!"

I was speaking idiomatically.

When I was playing with three of my friends last night we'd punish the person who got last place by forcing them to take the wii-mote since we only had 3 gamecube controllers. It's also funny how when a final smash ball appears everyone pauses, freaks out, and runs for it all at the same time. Oh man, good shit.

Awww, that's too bad about the Wii-mote being crap. Does the "Classic controller" hold up any better? I'm getting one of those pretty soon, and I have one functioning GC controller, so I guess the other two peeps are boned when it comes down to playing a 4-player bout.
This just makes me think that it's too bad my Wavebird is malfunctioning. So sad.

What kind of toxic man-thing is happening now?

Hey gang. I got the game Saturday night and while I played the hell out of it Sunday, I've been really bogged down all week with work and school.

However, last night I tried playing online "With Anyone" and couldn't get anybody to play with. It's a pretty retarded setup to go immediately into Character Select and see "Waiting..." down at the bottom and end up timing out of the Select screen. Why isn't there a lobby of some sort? What the hell?

Eventually I'll post my FC on the wiki and add as many as I can, but until then I'll just be playing SSE and trying to get through that. SSE is pretty damn fun though, I'm enjoying it more than I enjoyed Melee's adventure mode by far.

FELIPE NO
