For some of us, Day 1 is done and you’re moving onto Day 2. For some others, I’ll pretty much be putting up Day 3 before you write up your first entry. Well, regardless of whether or not your other blog, or my blog for that matter, expires because I just don’t give a fuck as long as I can do all 30 days and complete the challenge, I’m moving on to Day 2. So, without further ado, here we go.
Day 2 - Favorite stage.
Port City Aero Dive (Brawl)
Personally, I love all the F-Zero stages because it opens up a whole new can of worms with the F-Zero machines. In fact, Big Blue was a contender that I came close to choosing for this slot because you can actually fight on top of the machines. But what makes Aero Dive my favorite, even though it’s technically an evolved form of Melee’s Mute City, is that the stage has so many tiers that you can never quite get used to the environment, not to mention that whatever tier you fight on is, in its own right, unpredictable, which makes this stage such a fun ride.
The F-Zero machines are a real hazard too, unlike some sissy hazards you see in other stages. If you’re tiny as fuck, your ass is gone into the next century if you’re standing too close to the ground, as well as if you get hit like 2 or 3 times at normal height. Pretty much the only time you can withstand the F-Zero machine hazards without some sort of temporary invincibility like having just been resurrected or picking up a star is if you’re a giant or metal, but then that opens you up to fall a lot when it’s time to haul ass onto the moving platform so you don’t get KO’ed. With this stage, you are never safe, even when your opponents are trying to recover from a KO.
This was a playable course in F-Zero GX too, though this wasn’t even close to my favorite stage in that game (THAT honor goes to Aeropolis Dragon Slope). And speaking of F-Zero GX, that was a pretty fun game in itself and broke me away from Mario Kart as far as racing games go, even though Mario Kart will always be a BAMF! < 3
But yeah, Aero Dive makes it on my Day 2 entry.
