About

Holy crap, I know no one reads my blog... but really... I have been gone for a loooooooong time, and I am back for good. Srsly. I am BACK... (I really never left). I have now "grown up" and moved on to bigger and better things in the life of a gamer. For instance, I am now a full-fledged 360 ADDICT, with little to no Wii influence at all besides my losing 2" off my waistline thanks to Wii Fit (I know, I was surprised too) and my friends and I playing Boom Blox and Super Smash Bros. Brawl.

I am now 17 and am still living in Pennsylvania. I am an avid VGXpo attendee (the only video game conference in Philly) and have been to New York Comic-Con twice now. I have "grown up" in every sense of the term (Besides the little WWE fan inside of me, go Edge!!!). Anywho, my new favorite game is either Skate 2 or Guitar Hero: World Tour... for now. I now actually have G4, and watch it almost religiously. Attack of the Show and X-Play are new favorites on my list.

SSB:Brawl Final Countdown: Hype Evaluation

drMario1337

3:56 PM on 03.06.2008

What is hype? Hype is the promotional publicity of an extravagant kind. Brawl is hype. Nintendo has hyped up Brawl to the maximum, and I believe that it will pay off. Brawl has been atop the Japanese charts for 4 weeks (only just recently being bumped down by Dynasty Warriors Gundam), and I have NO REASON to believe that it will be atop the US Charts for a long time.

Back to the hype standpoint. There are more pros than cons regarding the hype of Brawl. One of the big methods of hype was the DOJO. The DOJO was a great resource to check everyday and surely brought up the hype of the game.

Other than the DOJO, a lot of the hype was brought up by all the fan boards out there on the interwebs. A lot of that is negative, but some is positive.

I really can't say if the hype will help the release or not, but once the game comes out at 12:01 on the 9th, we will all know.
