I had bought Super Smash Bros Brawl the day of its release, hoping to really get into this hyped series. I played for maybe 2 hours and really wasn't getting into it. Now fast forward into October and here I am starting this game again. I wanted to give it another chance and figure out why this game is so addictive to the masses. Didn't take me long to figure it out this time, even though I was playing single player. Unlockables!!! I have clocked over 12 hours into this game now, playing a few brawls here and there online, but mainly doing single player trying to get 100% on the The Subspace Emissary. Its more addicting than anything I've played in months. I can't say I'm a pro by any means, but I've become pretty damn good I'd like to say. Its just awesome to go back to the vault and see all the things you've unlocked over the journey.

I'm sure most of you all know about this game already, but to those of you who were like me...pick this game up and give it an honest shot. It will overcome you before you even realize it!

Enough talking...lets get back to Brawling!

You probably all know that I'm a multiconsole owner...and play the PS3 the least out of the bunch. Although its not my favorite, I did see it more fit for GTA:IV. I figured with the HD the loading times would be minimized, less pop up, etc etc. Couldn't go wrong...right? Well...I was wrong. After now playing both versions of the game, I wish I had purchased the 360 version. I do like the slightly faster loading on the PS3, but the lower res and blur effect the put over the game is downright awful! Maybe it's because I'm playing a 65" screen...but the PS3 version looks like I'm playing on a filthy screen. Its so blurry that if I don't have the lighting quiet right in my room, it gives me the worst eye strain possible. It literally feels like somebody stabbed the back of my eyeballs and they are slowly bleeding into my head....giving me even more of a migraine. NOT FUN. I have put over 9 hours into the game so far...across 5 sittings. 2 of them have been pain free, but the rest.....arggg...end in agony. The thing that ticks me off is the fact that the game is so damn fun I just keep coming back for more! Oh well, when I'm done with this title, I'm done with it for good....unless I get it for the 360.

Well guys and gals, I'm off to a new blog with a LOT more freedom. You can come visit my new blog entries at
