Morning everyone, this is my first blog ever so bear with me. I'm at work right now, my job is really boring but luckily they gave me a computer with internet access to entertain me :) well that's what I use it for anyways. I pretty much discovered gamespot while I was at work and made my account and all the details on it at work. I guess my job isn't so bad after all. I also made a youtube account during my time here and made a video. I was really stoned when I made this so I'm not sure if it's actually funny or if I just found it funny because my brain was mushy. Here's the link let me know what you think:

Anyways, the main topic of this blog was supposed to be my disappointment with the latest smash bros and wii in general actually, but perhaps I'll save that second part for another blog if I ever make one. I love the smash bros series because of the vast array of characters and fighting styles to choose from, and the simplicity of inputs needed to perform moves. This makes the game very fast paced and allows for more of a brain battle between players. However, I don't understand how/why they had to make some characters so rigged (snake and metaknight), and why they couldn't release some sort of patch to balance things more. More companies could learn from Blizzard in this sense, they realize that as people learn more about the game certain imbalances come up and they patch them. What's so hard about that? The game had so much potential until everyone realized how godly the meta/snake game is and just abused it. Tiers will obviously exist as long as fighting games do but I don't see why that should stop these companies from adjusting balancing issues accordingly. In fact it should facilitate it because it would give a clear indication of who needs to get powered up and who needs to be powered down!

Well thanks for reading if you made it this far. Look forward to any comments that might come about but if not then at least I won't have to waste time on a 2nd blog. Although I guess it wouldn't really be wasting time since I'd be getting paid since I'm at work...sweet! (sweet ass sweet)

smash bros brawl wasn't that much fun,
snake and meta made everyone glum.
