the new smash is fun, but it's only better than brawl in my opinion. I like 64 more even.

How come? My friends and I always switch up characters on N64 so we'll play 5-7 games and usually be bored of it. I was hoping the greater variety would help.

I've been beating the fuck out of Assassins Creed Unity lately. Beat the game, now doing all the side shit. It gets kind of boring/tedious after awhile, but I just got Dead Kings and am killing people with a fucking mortar gun. That alone made it worth playing. Well and stabbing people in the neck.

My personal favorite thing to do is to rush into an enormous amount of enemies (I'm talking like 20 at a time, which has happened to me a bunch) and throw down smoke bombs. They can't do shit when those suckers are down and I'm just fucking them up left and right. hahaha

Dude, you'd love Shadow of Mordor. Sometimes I'll raise an alarm and just fight wave after wave of orcs (like 100-200), so satisfying just wrecking them. Also riding Graugs and Caragors is fucking dope.

I don't like the game mechanics in sm4sh. for one thing rolling is a lot safer in this game (harder to punish) so a lot of people will just roll around which is just annoying. it's also slower paced than melee and PM which are my favorite smash games. it's slower because Nintendo got rid of all the cool advanced tech and movement options that are prevalent in melee. it's a lot harder to edgeguard and kill people in general, which makes the games last too long. I also don't like some of the changes to character's movesets.

but all in all, it's not a bad game, I just won't be getting a Wii U for it. The character variety is cool and I like a lot of the new cast. I also never expected the new smash to really amaze me, given how Sakurai views competitive gaming.

Ah yeah being slower is not winning me over. I liked the fast pace of Melee, honestly they could have just rereleased it for the Wii U and I'd have been sold. Thanks for this, lessens my Wii U desire (which I do not need at all).

it's faster than brawl, but still a slower game I think.

The third prong on the 64 controller is for smashing into the fucking head of edgeguarders.

Ledge hogging is part of the game man

I mean, I guess it's part of the game if you play in macramed jean shorts, and watch maid in manhattan afterwards with a homemade spinachdip breadbowl.
