When you think of hacking in general, you usually think of it being done for selfish reasons. Invincibility, Moon Jumps, Instant Speed Boosts, you name it. People use these to make them seem like kings; like nobody can beat them.
I'm pretty sure everyone is aware that modding/hacking games is entirely possible. People have used it for a lot of bad purposes. This statement is no different when it comes to the Smash Bros. I'm going to focus on the most modded in the series, Smash Bros Brawl.
Although there are many people who use hacking selfishly in Brawl, there are some people who actually use hacking to make the game more enjoyable. Take, for instance, the creators of the widely popular Brawl hack, Project M. Their main purpose for hacking was to make Brawl feel more like it's prequel, Melee. This included balancing all the characters, bringing back fan-favorite characters such as Mewtwo and Roy, and modifying many of Brawl's stages to better suit competitive play. It also included many new cosmetic additions such as HD versions of past stages, new costumes for almost every character, and amazing new menu graphics.
Brawl mods have also been used to make the game more than just a Nintendo crossover. Have you ever wanted to see Link having an epic battle with Sora, or Shadow the Hedgehog duking it out with Geno, Klonoa, and Zero? Crazy ideas such as these have been possible with the use of Brawl mods. Mods in the game have also been able to change some of the game's music, add new stages, give characters entirely new moves, change sound effects, add more characters to the roster, and even to increase the difficulty of CPUs!
Now, the question I ask is:
What is your opinion of specifically Brawl hacks/mods? Do you approve of altering the game to fit one's taste, or do you think it ruins the game's experience?
Also, If you want to check out Project M and the various other mods yourself, here are some links:
