Heh, here's an interesting tidbit...Paul Mercier is being credited as a voice actor for Leon Kennedy on Brawl's imdb page.

Take this with a grain of salt, since imdb is hardly the most trustworthy source ever...But personally, I'm keeping my fingers crossed.

Oh god.

Of all the people, Leon Kennedy? o.O

At least its not Sora.

Sora still has a chance. >_>

Ace wins the internets with that one.

New update is Multi-Man Melee. And no fighting polygons this time, we have the Alloys. Also, its got a two-player function this time.

two player 100-man melee. nice

alloy team, nice addition.

Leon kennedy... wait... WHAT?!

Enjoy your character update, I'm going to bed. Will rant about awesomeness tomorrow.

DUDE
OMFG

Captain Olimar is a new Character?!?!?!?!

most of his attacks are Pikmin Based and he can't do smash attacks without Pikmin

Epic Fricktacular win. And the guy at my gamestop was wright! Woo-Hoo. Either way, I honestly don't see myself playing as him much, but it's awesome either way. And it's a GOOD update for once.

I think that's a record length between new character reveals. I'm pleased, nonetheless. The detail on his jacket is nice and it looks like an interesting character to play as.

The music remix isn't bad, either!

You can't tell, but there's a huge grin on my face right now.

Unless they reveal Django to be in the game, this is my new main character.

And now for the discussing: what will Olimar's stage be? (You know there's going to be one.)

Edited by Evitron on January 9, 2008 at 21:57:24.

I questioned that myself and I honestly didn't know. I think it's going to involve a Bulblax in some way or another though.

I was thinking that, too. The bulbax is probably the most well-identified enemy from the game.

Well, today's update is Snake's Final Smash:

Grenade Launcher

Snake’s Final Smash is the Grenade Launcher.



What is he calling in...?



Suddenly he does a great jump!



Choppa-choppa-choppa!

Snake grabs the rope ladder the helicopter drops and takes out his grenade launcher!

So, the thing to do is shoot, right?



Poom! Poom! Poom!

You control the targeting reticule and press the attack button to fire grenades one at a time. There are six rounds, and when you run out...



He loads a new clip? How can that be?

It ends when you shoot 12 rounds or run out of time. Snake then climbs back up to return to battle.



Yep. He makes his exit.

It’s probably better to just shoot all your rounds rather than run out of time leaving ammo behind...but if you just shoot indiscriminately, your shots may be dodged.

When there are two or more enemies, it might be a good idea to hit one as he is being attacked by the other, or something along those lines.

Shiek confirmed.

And the Zelda Final Smash being the Light Arrow. Nice find, Teej.

This is probably the best update week in a long while.

Word of advice:

The Mojo Sensei system is really buggy. Screenshot image sizes, as well as the templates they provide for putting characters on are horrible.

Seriously, if your gonna use this thing, wait for it to get better first, although by then the game will be out. >.>

Denial is always the first stage, isn't it, Teej?

If Leon gets in, Mega Man sure better be in it.

BTW, here's a pretty elaborate fake screen shot of the character select screen. Look at your own potential risk:

It's actually pretty good. Hard to tell if it's a fake. Some of these mugshots, I've personally never seen before. The lighting looks almost convincing too. What do any of you make of it?

^CPU levels only go up to level 9, so it's fake...I see no harm in looking. >__>


And Leon I'm taking as a fake...all imdb is a slightly-harder-to-edit Wikipedia.


A few months ago, Mr. T had been credited with voicing Mario. -__-

UPDATE:


Delayed until March 9th.

Then there's still hope for Mega Man!

I'd wait forever if it meant having him in it.

The game is done, they're delaying it so they can produce more copies.

that and they still need to translate part of the text to english (trophy info, unseen menus) and later to German, Spanish, French, Italien for Europe. then even MORE copies

by the time i can play it it will be like May or June

Just gives me more time to sell this useless graphics card of mine so I can purchase a Wii. >_> I'm not too disappointed. Anyway, latest update: Distant Planet.

Here's that Pikmin level y'all were talking about.



Pikmin’s protagonist, Captain Olimar, was forced to make an emergency landing on this unexplored planet.

Let’s just call it the Distant Planet for now, shall we?



The flooring in the middle of the stage is made of vines and is very bouncy.

As you play, you’ll see numbered Pellets fall from the Pellet Posies around the stage. Grab one of these and throw it into a nearby Onion to get items.



Here’s a Pellet and an Onion.

Also, this planet experiences frequent torrential downpours. When things get wet, you’ll want to stay away from the hill on the left, as it gets pretty treacherous.



Whoa, that’s some fierce rain right there!

Oh yeah—there are some fierce creatures prowling the area, so watch your step.



You sure it’s safe to stand there?

... ... What am I saying. Of course it’s not safe. Anyhow, take care that you don’t get gobbled up.



Chomp!

Delayed again? What the hell...this is starting to piss me off.

I hereby no longer give a shit about the Dojo or Brawl. Enough disappointment, I'm going to ignore this all for the next two months and get on with my life.

All I can say is that they better give us a DAMN good update soon to compensate for this tragedy, this truly sucks.
