in brawl, last time i checked, Snake is still top teir (right below meta knight), fox is high, Sonic, Samus and Ike are mid and i think Kirby is mid/high. Might have changed. Zelda characters got screwed. Bottom 3 are Link, Ganondorf and Zelda. They call it the Triforce tier. tsk tsk...

I'm looking to change my main to Samus in the next smash game though. I'm deciding to go for more series/character loyalty and my favorite nintendo franchise is Metroid, so yeah. Hopefully shes good in Smash 4... but some how Link always pulls me back. 

Yeah, Mango won, haha.

But indeed, Smash is can be a very fun and competitive game. Sure you have to alter the game a bit but it's still very enjoyable. I dabbled in competitve Melee back in the pre-brawl days, and then continued to play competitive Brawl for a couple of years after it came out. Unfortunately, I fell off mainly because Brawl was a unfulfilling game in the long run. Its a great game overall, but competitively it was vastly inferior. Not to mention, my main is considered one of the worst characters in the game - Link. I've been playing a lot of the Project M Brawl hack lately and I must say, its pretty fantastic.

i find it odd that Nintendo is doing that, but knowing them im not surprised. I doubt online will be much better than a game like PS:All Stars, but as long as its playable ill be ok. Still, i think they dont realize that ranking creates competition, which drives online play. The thrill of ranking up in UMvC3 and SSF4 kept me going, and kept matches more intense. Sure, a loss causes salty feelings, but a win is much more satisfying.

I have a soft spot for the Final boss themes from both Baten Kaitos games. The first one had a very high energy, but awesome theme 

now Baten Kaitos Origins had a much different, more soft, and slow paced final boss but it was a beautiful song. One of my favorites in the game, though its odd for a final boss. It works in a strange way though... 

na, it should be out for everything by now.

Seeing that this is a budget title ($29.99), I'm going to assume that this exists to wrap up the "Future" saga of Ratchet and Clank and bridge to the next saga that will begin on PS4. Its only a hunch, but thats what it sounds like based on what I've read so far. That said, it not being able to be played on PS4 (yet, we still have to see how the cloud stuff works) kinda sucks but we'll see. I'm excited none-the-less, it looks really good.

Thanks, im glad it clicked with me too. And yes, I really hope we get some persona on 3DS, that would be awesome.

haha, glad to know you considered my feelings! 

Jokes aside though, I think you're gonna like the game though, especially if you're a vet. Its got some pretty high production values, and a lot of bulk.

We are definitely in the midst of a great JRPG resurgence. This is awesome, as I CAN NOT WAIT to play Tales of Xillia, Xillia 2, Symphonia Chronicles, KH 1.5, the eventual 2.5 and FFXV. That said, Idk where I'm gonna find all the time to play these games. That said, i already have games like Xenoblade, Valkyria Chronicles, Persona 3 FES and FFVI backlogged. As great as it is, I feel like i may never get to experience some of these...

my sentiments exactly. Julian was the one who got me into GB and i've joyfully listened ever since. Its extra morbid as I listen to the last episode from July second, where they talk about being at his wedding and all. He's gonna be missed for sure. Giant bomb will never be the same...
