So I finally played some extended Brawl over the weekend, while visiting a friend. Fun game. Can't see how it's that different from Melee, but I'm very much a casual SSB player so that doesn't surprise me. I surprised myself by actually being reasonably decent with Sonic; I was only picking him out of fanboyism, but he's quick and responsive, with good coverage on his attacks. Ike and ROB are also fun to use. Gameplay-wise, I cleared out the event battles (on normal) and home run competition for her, and played the first level of SSE, after which the game froze. What I saw was fun, though!
Also, per the news released from the weekend's demo, three words for any SRW players thinking of not picking the super main when Z comes out: Wrench-chucks, yo.
Edit: Oh, and I started the RSMS endgame quests. Auldburg was simple, and got me a bunch of Greaves of Titius, which could come in handy (that makes four characters immune to Terrology). Next stop was the Netherworld, where Death roundly kicked my ass. Fighting him with this file seems like it may be a really bad idea, since one of my characters is Captain Silver, the un-re-recruitable 7-LP wonder. I only managed to spark one technique in what was a reasonably long fight, too (granted, it was Multi Shots, which kicks ass, but I had to quit without saving because Silver got LP-killed).
