So, what's flash fiction exactly?

I like it, whatever it is.

Flash Fiction entails very little. Or should I say, it requires very little. That isn't to say the author requires little talent, nay, he requires but that much more. For in Flash Fiction very rarely is a backdrop given. Dialogue and courteous actions explain the entire short story and it usually focuses on a epicenter of emotion, reasoning, or idea, thusly becoming the ideal topic.

/Slash/

As far as the stories, they were disturbing, deturbing, and not very high quality, but quite quick quip and humorous.

Hello to all whom it may concern or care.

Name's Kyle. I am twenty two years old and have been writing for the greater half of my life. I have several online published works and just haven't gotten around to finishing my current project with Marvel. I love writing, but my greatest talent and passion is editing. I love to edit, not because I get to rip apart other people's works and make them into something great, sometimes even morphing the writer into something great as well, but because it's inspiring to see creativity.

I hope to be made an asset by the lot of you as I love to read and I love to edit and critique.

So, I broke down and bought the DS a while back and I love it. The DS is awesome and it's so innovative. It's even more amazing Wii is just as a nd more innovating. So Nintendo has been hitting all the spots as of late, which is great. My question however is, or have they already [I am so out of the 'scene' these days] a connection for the Wii and the DS to I don't know, have some sort of interface or maybe playable games on there. Like the Super Game Boy and the GBA connection on GC.

Okay, I remember when I first got my new GBA and saw Advanced Wars on the counter and I bought that one and the sequel at once, figuring it'd be a pretty sweet game. A strategy game on the ds, how can't you like it?

I quickly found though, that the game not only had really crappy graphics, concepts, story arc, and all around game play, but that I also wasted 60 some dollars on the two.

My biggest problem with the pre-quels was that the game was reactionary. Meaning. If you made a move, the computer would always respond the same way EVERY TIME. So you could literally beat levels by trial and error and lets face it, the second AW was hard as hell and required you to memorize what you did the last time and not make the same mistakes.

Is this new one on DS even different? I hear it has Fog of War. Big whoop, now I won't be able to figure out what I'm doing wrong. But is there any other tactics other than simply variable algorithms?

is Guitar Hero is a failure in the gaming world in my opinion, [Rock Band being the complete opposite] however because I love music and well having it following me around while at work at the office or just at home trying to fill the time, I imagine I'll pick this up at the production release date. The commercial looks retarded and actually pushed me away from the idea, but I recollected my thoughts and remembered I wouldn't be a complete douche in my front yard playing and so yea, I definately plan on getting this game.

Have they released if it's going to have online play?

I am trying to write a review on Brawl that sports the fact it is the best of the SSB series and like all my generalizing of reviews I focus on finding all the bad parts of the game. And sadly I found alot. So I was wondering if anyone else noticed these apparent inbalances of the game.

First off, this is completely biased. WHERE THE HELL IS DOC MARIO. Seriously, he was my favorite character.

Now for the real problems. A: Super Smash hits don't justify themselves. Back when I could smash people off the screen at 70%, I now have to get lucky to pull one of these off. Now my problem with this is my smallest of them, it's really the build up of the next problems I had noticed. But staying on this topic, it is a decent change some what because now players can't snap the C-stick and knock players off. Causing us to charge to a maximum to get the desired effect, however, even completely charged the move still doesn't have the smae spectacular jaw dropping effect.

So following that, what do many players use to make up for the fact heir character's brawn can't do what it once did? Well, that is simple. Items. The items, if they're in play, will change the course of the game. Recieving a summon capsule and getting any of them will send anyone with 50% across the screen. Some summons take up the entire screen and keep parading about smashing all but you into oblivion. The skill in items are near nothing now.

Another game changer is the Super Moves which are initiated by a SSB logo glowing sphere that randomly dances about the level. I love it, the moves are gorgeous and amazing. However, some players are left in the dust with this. For inctance, Peach. I love P.Peach, I used her almost non-stop in Melee. Not only was she nerfed, but her super move merely turns on her and rarely can a person get a kill switch out of it. Players who use Fox, Falco, Pit, or Snake are given near invincibility, screen coverage and almost garunteed carnage. Still leaving 25% of the characters to choose from left with a move that maybe only kills one player, or none at all.

The imbalances annoyed me at this point because a big factor I told friends about the game is that every character is pretty equal this time around, but now I see the super moves are not. SSBB will go down in my book as a 9.9-10 scoring game, but I feel I can't write a legitement review because of these inherent discrepencies.
