Hop, the week in updates on the Dojo for Super Smash Bros. Brawl has a slow start with Ice Climber's Final Smash, these characters who are always ready to face the cold. Moreover, they summon some kind of huge iceberg on the battlefield to help themselves. Remarkable fact, the players will actually fight on it and be exposed to severe engelures.
Microsoft somehow decided that they knew better than us and most of the gaming press what was good for Mass Effect, and wanted to limit us to 4*1 minute videos and 10 screenshots for the review of the game. Needless to say this is totally unacceptable and you guys will have to wait until the official release date here in France (Friday) to see our usual videos. We are sorry about that, but there is no way around it.Yes we are aware that other sites didn't have such restrictions for their video reviews. Business as usual I guess...Update: Well everything isn't lost, since we have this rather nice interview from XCN for you guys.

After a lot of troubles with the customs I've finally received my japanese import copy of Ace Combat 6, and I certainly don't regret buying it. I had played a bit of Ace Combat IV on the PS2 so I more or less knew what to expect, but I was still surprised by the excellent gameplay, the mostly fantastic graphics and the overall level of polish of this game. Without a doubt one of the best titles released by Namco in the last few years, I can only recommend it to everyone not afraid to vomit in front of his screen after a few himmelman turns.
A comet nearly crashed on planet Earth. Humanity survived. On the other hand, the big rock let a green dust on its way. Unharmful to the humans, it has a deep impact on plants such as mushrooms, who gained a conscience, formed tribes and, inevitably, make war. This original premise, I let you profit from it with this video of some characters from Mushroom Men, planned on Nintendo DS and Nintendo Wii in late 2008.

They will be used to gamble on your favorite fighter in online matches via Nintendo Wi-Fi, meaning you will be able to spectate while on your couch, watch and gain prizes. While I'm at it, I'm adding MetaKnight's special moves as I was in a bit of a rush yesterday.
