I agree with you Dylan. I REALLY HATE AMERICA! I have absolutely no country pride. Bush took it all away when he screwed us over with his stupid war, causing the country millions of casualties and trillions of dollars in debt. Maybe if I was born a few terms before Bush I might have some pride. But unless Obama can pull off a miracle, I will never find it in me to respect this country. Another thing, people are always pro military. Example: "Those dirty Arabians need to die! Support our troops!" I am SO FREAKIN tired of hearing this! Has an eye for an eye ever accomplished anything? NO! Violence engenders more violence until there's no one left to kill! People don't get it! They think that having the bigger boom stick solves all of life's problems. News Flash! We gamers know that something like that only works in movies and games, not the real world. Maybe if war was all digital, I would support the bigger boom stick theory. But war is real! It is sad, terrifying and gruesome. Next time someone says this war was a good thing, I don't know what I might do!!!!! H8! SO FULL OF H8!!!!!!!! ...Whoa. I probably shouldn't have pent all that up until now. 1. If you really think that the war has caused millions of casualties for us then you're HORRIBLY mistaken. Darfur hasn't even killed a million people yet. Rwanda killed 1.2 million iirc. 2. I have never heard them say "Arabians" without the word Saudi in front of it, so if you're really characterizing a redneck in america, which i think was your intent, then please go Mark Twain and make their dialect look (sound) diff'rent. 3. I hate pansies that say that all wars are bad. DUMBASSES THAT HATE AMERICA FOR "THE WAR" I KNOW YOU LOVED IT WHEN IT WAS IN AFGHANISTAN. Iraq was horrible intel on top of horrible exceution on top of horrible cover ups on top of dubya just trying to finish his dad's war. Wars aren't all bad. But some shit is necesary to tell some people to back the **** off! Seriously, get real, if you expect a country to not issue a counter attack after their national security was openly violated and there are threats for more, then they'll take action. There have been dumb wars in the past. A war in Sudan to fight the government there and the Janjaweed and the war in Afghanistan are two wars that are/were/would/will be fully supported by the international and, more importantly, our community. Oh and if you think you're being a really awesome war protester by not saying the damn Pledge on Mondays and shit, grow a pair, because I bet that even though the situation isn't great right now you are sitting in a desk to get a top notch education that half of India wanted for the last 30+ years. And guess what bitch? While you're pissing and moaning about how ONE SINGLE PRESIDENT "ruined" your life India is out there with China preparing to kick our economic ass. You should look back on history, realize the country has seen some pretty gruesome shit (Sedition Acts, WW2, reconstruction, Jim Crow), recovered, let you live and not have to worry about a lot of basic factors in your life that you dont even consider every day. People like you that think they're constantly beign "rebels" by saying "I hate Bush, fuck America!" to a crowd of people need to get a sense of reality and realize that Bush is not and never WAS the United States. There is more to a country than its leader. Don't hate on your country because of one person and then have the flat out audacity to go home to your Kenmore/Maytag/w/e stove and eat a meal and watch some TV. You're a damn hypocrite and I hope that you know that. Grow a pair and try to make the country better instead of nagging about Bush. If anything, be thankful we have Obama now and start supporting him if you're going for the it thing now of "Obama, fuck YEAH!" It's not a matter of having "country pride" it's a matter of showing some respect to a country that has done FAR more good than bad to you.

Even Saddam Husain's top generals were suprised when the United States discovered no Weapons of Mass Destruction. They had to LIVE near that crazy dictator.
I agree with BAMM that war is not always bad. Sometimes it is necissary when peace will not work. Israel needed to stop it's current military offensive into the Gaza strip because of people like K-Spam who only think war is bad. The war was justified because Hamas was firing rockets into Israel almost everyday. Maybe not "everyday", but very frequently. Israel was able to remove Hamas strongholds and remove some of their power (they hid behind civilians as they shot at Israeli military personel and hid in UN schools to attack and fire rockets from) and show Hamas that Israel is ready to destroy them whenever it wishes. This type of war will lead to peace because it removes one aggressive party and ensures some protection from that party for it's citizens. When you're Israel, you need to show that you're really tough because everyone near you hates you.

Sorry, that was incredibly half baked. I go to school with this kid who can only think about shooting terrorists. It's all he talks about 24/7 and it ticks me off . I guess I just needed to rage about that incredibly annoying walking mouth. War is a necessary function, i will admit. Gruesome, but necessary. I just don't understand why people want to join the military is all. It makes no sense to me.

The best war is a flame war... So I win. But. seriously? Lets change topic before we have to rename this thread.
I hate when I have to use the wii mote to play brawl because my friend doesn't have any other GC controllers.
I did get to play brawl today though. My friend took it out of his closet. My Peach still got it, however, it's impossible for me to float with the wii mote.

Just the Wii mote? As in, without Nunchuk? Ouch. It takes me a match or two to get used to the Wiimote+chuk everytime, and just mote is ridiculous. I feel sorry for anyone who has to play that way.
Classic controller messes with me because I think of it as a gamcube controller and the buttons are in different places. When I try to jump, I get a standard attack. It really messes with me. I need to make a custom setting to make it match a Gamecube controller.

You just stick with what you know and always, ALWAYS come prepared. Wireless controller? Bring batteries. Just bring your GC and some backup batteries if possible. Now, onto the rage. I am really becoming irritated with characters who have extended hitboxes on just about EVERY attack! Like the spawns of Earthbound, N&L. Their psi powers mean that a good number of their moves have some very confusing ranges. Lucario and the anthropomorphic space animals too (to correct myself, wolf and the others just have longer distance attacks, not extended hitboxes). I just can't fight these people! It gets so irritating since kirby doesn't have many extended hitboxes on his attacks. I'd rather fight MK than these guys!

Sticking to what I know is not possible. I don't have anything here with me, so I use what I can get. And when I say Wii Mote, I mean Wii Mote + Nunchuck.

Kirby isn't one of the greatest spacers in the game. Not too many extended hit-boxes.
A way around this. Stay in their face don't let them get away. U have like 4-5 jumps and and a good recovory for a reason.

Yeah, i just had that seemingly obvious epiphany as well. Just don't let up and your good. I cant believe I was blind enough not to see it before. Great smashes+awesome grabs+rolling+air guarding off the stage with stone and awesome air attacks=better kirby game. Then again, if you had played against ZeroPulse all your life, you'd learn to be afraid of what your opponent can do to you . If it wasn't for the fact that I fought him first round (sorry man ) we might've had some trouble. Oh yeah, now onto the rage. Why does pnt NEVER have a copy of Mortal Kombat vs DC in stock? WHY?!??!??!?!

So, I got Fire Emblem Shadow Dragon, and a few things make me rage. 1) No more rescuing. You can't rescue a unit in trouble. They got rid of constitution and rescue. You need to surround a unit in trouble with other units you have. Not fun.
2) Staves suck. Seriously, you level up after a few uses at low levels, but you heal so little it isn't really worth it.
3) Mounted units can't move again after using items or visiting houses. I miss this a lot. It allowed me a lot of extra things to do with my cavaliers/pegasus knights. Kind of a "annoyance" but still annoying.
Beyond that, it's minor gripes. Reclassing is awesome, you can get over 60+ characters in this game (It's a lot) and it really doesn't matter anymore if your unit dies. This game feels a lot like Sword of Seals because you are always out numbered and the enemy likes to rush you with many units at once. This is a good thing because it makes the game harder and more fun. I don't like that you need to sacrifice a character before the end of the prologue, but I didn't need Jagen anyway. He has spawned a legacy/recurring theme throughout the Fire Emblem series of a crappy character you start the game with whose only redeeming feature is that they are already promoted. Jagen is worse than all those other characters in the recurring theme. I cannot describe how useless he is besides long range bait and weakening tougher enemies so somebody useful can kill them.

I am really ticked off that onemanga.com doesn't upload naruto and bleach until friday morning! It used to be thursday afternoon! I can't wait that long for the new Bleach chapter ! Also, I'm pissed that Nel hasn't been in any of the recent Bleach chapters. We haven't seen her since Kenpachi beat Nnoitra and it's been like what, 35 chapters? For all we know she could be dead! The only ray of hope is that soon, Viz media will dub the Arrancar saga! Hurray! That and Shonen Jump is finally getting into the Hueco Mundo arc! Then again, both of them will pale in comparison to the original because viz has to censor the crap out of everything . Also, why does everyone and their mother play wolf? First it was just Fomortiis and Zero on occasion. Now it's Fomortiis, nejilove, ZeroPulse and who knows else? I CAN'T TAKE IT ANYMORE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! H8, H8, H8, SUPAH8!!!!!!!!!!!!! Sorry about that Fomortiis, nejilove, ZeroPulse. I'm just tired of seeing so many wolfs at pnt!
