You know you'd think with the game being next gen and all they would be able to include everyone from the previous game and then add on. But noooooo they have to mess it up and take characters out. Really even if you don't like say Pichu or whatever I know there's someone out there who uses that as their main character you know? Why not just make them all and add on. It's pointless to take anyone out. It worked with Mortal Kombat in Trilogy. Or maybe they will make a game later with everyone in it.

I guess it gives you a reason to keep Melee since it'll have characters this one doesn't but Melee isn't online...

Snake - "It lays eggs, so it must be female...right?

Otacon - "Actually, it claims to be a 'he'"

Snake - "It talks? How 'bout I capture one so we can see what it tastes like?"

ROFLOLOLOLZ

Snake - "Mei Ling...Samus took her clothes off. Without all that armor, she's a lot more agile. I bet if I took all this gear off, I could catch her.

Mei Ling - Yeah, you wish Snake. All that training she did with the Chozo has made her a super athlete. No human could ever catch up.

Snake - Her loss.
-------------

Solid Snake wants to Screw Attack Samus Aran.

Sorry, but somebody had to sink that low. Seriously, game of the year.

I personally would have used "Snake wants to show her his Phazer cannon"

HAHAHAHA! Oh, man. This game just keeps getting more and more wacky. It's seriously nothing but the biggest love letter to fans of games ever. And I wouldn't want it any other way.

See? Even Peanut, the resident MGS hater likes it! A great update indeed.

Between yesterday's update and this one, this is shaping up to be a great week. Don't let me down, tomorrow!

Listen, I don't hate MGS. I just think that it gets away with way more crap than it deserves to. It's a fun enough game, but it pulls off some retarded story elements with an archaic control scheme and never gets called out for it's faults. That's my only problem with Metal Gear.

I'm just more about gameplay than anything else, which is probably way I played the VR Missions in Metal Gear Solid 2: Substance more than I played the actual game.

Anyways, yeah. I hope they keep up with the interesting updates this week. Little stuff like this is what makes a game legendary. It's never the big things.

I know, man. It's just that 'disliker' didn't have the same ring to it.

Those two new assist trophies are SO bad ass. Is it asking too much for the Excitebike theme to play when they pop out? Probably, BUT I'M HOPING!

God, I hated the Lakitus so much, and I know I'm gonna hate them just as much here but...it's always been a good hate, you know? I'm glad to see them there, along with Excitebike-men.

You remember how cool the SNES character sprites looked in the SMW Yoshi's Island stage from Melee (namely Lakitu and the Banzai Bill)? I'm hoping for a lot of stuff like that.

They better play the Excitebike theme. Its already stuck in my head just thinking about it.

More details on the story mode, including co-op play. Best week for updates yet? I think yes.

I think the single player mode looks sh*t. That's what I think. It's just going to be a glorified version of the piece of trash in Melee with a joke co-op mode.

I like the caption for the first screenshot.

"Congratulations!" Uh...thanks?

And is it just me or is the world map incredibly boring looking?

Na, it's not just you. I don't know, but there is something about that makes it look...eh. Too much detail, maybe?

Good evening ladies and gentlemen. The time has once again come for....you guessed it. Another one of Lucas's patented outbursts of joy is on the horizon. Here it comes. You ready? Oh yeah baby.

****ING FANTASTIC!!!


That concludes today's proceedings. Thank you for your time. You've been a fantastic audience bitches.
----------------

Hopefully Sakuari will drop him tonight on the dojo. I told you Mario & Sonic at the Olympics was a trade-off.

Yep. He's up there, along with a couple videos. Good news!

The video shows a bunch of his moves and he looks really cool. Even has the old school Sonic jumping noise when he jumps. And his Final Smash is clearly Super Sonic, which is also cool.

This game really is turning out to be epic. My guess is we'll get one more guest character and maybe two or three more Nintendo characters. I'd love to be wrong and see more, though.

There's still more room I feel, but still. There can't be any complaining with a roaster this fantastic. Sonic's Down+B looks psychotic.

Well now. Didn't see that coming.

Not the biggest fan of the character, but if any 3rd party character deserves to be there, it's Sonic.
