Topic: Kid Icarus: Uprising

Seriously? Anyone know?

I like him too. In fact he kinda reminds me of the Hades in Disney's Hercules, only not quite so car salesman like in personality/speech.

I love Hades. While I prefer Medusa, because she was more serious yet still threw in some comedy, Hades is still cool. His appearance is pretty cool, but I prefer his personality. It's really charming and evil.

If you plan on using a quill space thingy, It's the only one you can't use one on in the entire Hades board. And now that I saw the reward, probably fittingly so.

I find it embarrassing to play the game one Hades has taken over. It was hilarious for Pit and Palutena to be kidding around in the face of this (mostly) serious evil, in the form of Medusa. Now Hades is constantly in on the jokes, too, and there's no foil, no relief for the comedy to stand out against.

And Medusa was hotter.

I actually like this Hades better. He has a fun personality, and although the Disney Hades was humorous, he just wasn't fun.
Also: @ whoever thought that Medusa should have remained boss: she got old quickly. And besides, why would you WANT a serious character? This game is all about silly and random moments. Play Xenoblade is you want seriousness.

(spoilers)

Yeah, and I thought the best levels were mostly before Hades took over too. The Aurum threat felt particularly forced. Pyrrhon didn't need to be in there. The chaos kin had potential, but after two or three levels it was all taken care of and everything was all happy happy let's go kill Hades again, just like it never happened.

I liked Hades as a villain but I wish they saved him for a sequel or at least had Medusa seem less like an insignificant underling. Rather an anticlimactic return after 25 years.

I agree that Medusa should have been the main villain for longer. Hades was fun but as someone who wants to take over the world Medusa was the better villain.

What the heck? Why do some Air Battle tracks cut off in mid song in the music gallery? The Thanatos air stage music cuts off right before you go into the parted sea, my favorite part of the track. Is that part labeled as a separate track?

no its not a separate one, just keep listening, it'll start a few seconds later just like in the level (does that for me)

@Retro_on_theGo if you wait for like 3 seconds the next part starts in. I think thats because in the chapter itself, there is a pause in the music while the sea begins to part.

Ooh, haha. Thanks guys. I guess I'm just so impatient. XD

Is anyone else having trouble beating Ch 11 with no damage? I'm having a hard time....

I bought a 330 Guardian Orbitars from the store the other day. Those are fun. And now I'm really into clubs. After killing three people with one shot from my Babel Club, I was hooked. Now I need a club with a value over 300.

The spotpass club the other day was 300 exactly!

I don't think it was 300 for me. I think it's random.

Does anybody have any suggestions for meeting time limit treasure hunt objectives? I've got light weaponry (orbitars), tirelessness, and lightweight powers to give me speed. Anything else that I'm missing? I especially want to beat the times in stages 9 & 24 to unlock the Palutena weapons (or ability to make them, anyway).

As for Hades, he is awesome and I am definitely a fan! I'm all for friggin INSANE characters like him that "just want to watch the world burn." And isn't that what you'd expect of the God of the Underworld? And I for one love the "frenemy" conversations and light-hearted verbal jousting between rivals. It's a delightfully fresh approach to in-game character rivalries that's more fun to hear than the angry bickering you might expect from, say, a Final Fantasy game. I think society could use more civility between enemies, and maybe disagreements could be solved with verbal barbs instead of barbed wire.

Get the speed boost power up. It forces Pit to dash really fast and even knock out small enemies he runs into. Also try to use a weapon that has + speed or running.

I use a weapon that has a Stamina boost, and just run by all the enemies that you can.

I forgot to mention I received my @Gamer magazine with the 3 AR cards. It came with Pit (battle cry), Pandora, and Samurai Blade. At least I got something out of the cruddy magazine.
