I don't understand why some gamers can't be happy with what they get. There has been a slew of Smash Brothers Brawl news filling the interwebs, and you would think that this would bring joy amongst all gamers everywhere, right?
right?
wrong.
As I was scowering the web for the latest news, I had to resort to going to the GameFAQs boards for pictures and videos mainly because most of the other sites that had news died because of the serious attacks on their bandwidth due to other smash fans seeking out news.
All I have to say about GameFAQs is... never again. NEVER. AGAIN. I was honestly surprised I didn't get a brain aneurysm from all the ridiculously retarded comments some people were making on there. From what I hear it isn't uncommon there, especially on the Brawl boards, but still.. I can't believe I put myself through that.
Anyways, there is a point to all this. I think what I was mostly amazed by were the sheer number of complaints everyone had. "THE ROSTER SUCKS." "ROB SUCKS." "CLONES SUCK." It was absolutely amazing. Now, I'm not going to say the roster is everything I hoped it would be.. but there really isn't anything wrong with it. And let's not mention the absolute overflow of game modes and content the game is bursting at the seams with. Some people are just never happy and it really irritates the hell out of me. There is always something to complain about, and I'm sick of it. Be grateful that such a great game is even coming out. I don't know if anyone else feels the same way I do.. but come on now, it's just a little ridiculous.
But.. I guess it's unavoidable. We all nave our opinions so it happens. I just wish some people would lighten up a bit. I also wish the GameFAQs brawl boards would erupt in flames.

I agree with you. Gamers complain about a lot these days.
Some people are happier complaining than not complaining. Yeah, I'm tired of it too, so I'm just simply not gonna add to it.
Can't wait for Brawl!
Dude, your first mistake was the Gamefaqs forums. Those people are the scum of the intertubes
Gamefaqs is kind of fail dude.
people can be disappointed with the game. its their fault for thinking Nintendo would ask and think of the community when making games.
