Smashboards is listed in the prima guide...

[DarkShadowRage]

So I bought the guide today(for the poster) and had my birthday early...today which is tommrow(I turn 21!) yay! anyways, I just thought that was cool...Smash World Forums is listed in the Brawl Prima guide...talk about advertisement.

for the poster I bet (kidding) but I guess thats pretty cool

 

[Steck]

That's how I first learned about these boards!

I hate how the poster gets ripped when you try to take it out lol. I think prima's character rates were a bit off (Sonic one of the best? Meta Knight average?)

 

[DarkShadowRage]

It rates ZSS as the weakest character in the game, yet one can totally destroy with her.

I agree. ZSS is definitely not the weakest.

Where is smashboards mentioned in the guide?

 

[Sir_Psycho]

The last guide I read that had Smash Bros. character ratings was one about Melee and they rated Yoshi the best character in the game. After that I learned not to trust character ratings in strategy guides.

Prima doesn't sound like they know much... I bet the sites they suggest are garbage just like their character ratings.

to true just wait for the boards to make a tier list after a couple months thats really the best way

Happy birthday, I turn 21 this month too XD

Thats cool though, now more people will know about us and maybe get into the Smash scene more competitively, we need people who want to get competitive about Brawl.

Where is smashboards mentioned in the guide?

At the character ratings page.

I think I missed this, too. I looked through the guide [spotting typos throughout,], but what page is it on?

Also, I don't really think PRIMA knows what they're talking about, honestly. Some characters they list with their overall rating don't seem right at all to me, and some strategies they give for specific characters don't seem to work too well when I try them out.

I could be somewhat harsh here, but could PRIMA possibly be slightly on the level of the ESRB? [..really, don't answer this. I'm just rambling off. I'm sorry for going off-topic.]

Keep in mind I have the Premiere edition

as for the page 133

At the character ratings page.

No, I mean what's the sentence that Smashboards is mentioned. I don't have the guide.

Smashboards = garbage?

It's the only one listed on the guide!

 

[Ereki]

Oh, well, hey. What do you know.

"For fighting games, many strategies evolve over months of play at the highest level of competition. The strategies listed here will get you started on your way to the top, but for the most up-to-date- tournament level strategies, browse the Smash World Forums (www.smashboards.com).

Well, this was indeed unexpected. However, they put it on a page I disregarded almost completely [I only skimmed through this one]. >>; It still is a nice advertisement towards the forum, though.

I was on the edit screen to add the [/sarcasm] tag, but I decided against it to see if it was obvious enough

 

[majorojam]

EDIT: Hahahaha, it was posted two posts above. ERRRRRRRAAAAAAAAAAAAAAASEEEE

 

[SurooshX]

It rates ZSS as the weakest character in the game, yet one can totally destroy with her.

That's why you don't read Prima guides. PRIMA SUCKS!!!!!!

Indeed good sir, indeed...

The ONLY single thing their guide is good for is getting through the Great Maze...

Otherwise, it's a fantastic paperweight!

 

[RenegadeRaven]

If they think Sonic's the best they need to teach me whatever the hell their doin' to make him the best. LOL!

 

[thewiredknight]

That's why you don't read Prima guides. PRIMA SUCKS!!!!!!

At least they're better than Brady games. Freaking guides, who ever heard of making a guide for an RPG and not providing maps?

I have the guide but I bought it as more of a collector's item. But man the info in it is wrong left and right.

 

[Edds]

zero suit samus is better than samus i think. but ive never played them both alot

 

[NukeA6]

That's why you don't read Prima guides. PRIMA SUCKS!!!!!!

Waste of 20 dollars. I found better strategies on the Net.

Prima doesn't have strategies for Multi-Man Brawl or how to get 100% in SSE.

I have no idea what I was thinking when I got this guide (and I knew Prima sucked).

 

[antimatter]

shame nintendo power quit making the guides. ****ing Future US...

 

[ThaDirtyG]

I always thought the guides looked nice, but never offered anything else...

And Prima sucks...

 

[R3v3nant]

The Prima guide for brawl is pretty bad. It sounds more like a Brady games guide(which are horrible) then one made by Prima.
