I personally think its one of the best games on the wii. That's not necessarily a good thing because I don't enjoy brawl as much as I enjoyed melee. I personally wish they kept all the characters the same and just added more, not take away. Between 1-10, what do you give brawl. If not a 10, please explain why(though you don't have to)

I'm not a pro, so I think the characters are balanced well enough for me. But, I'm not a big fan of the smash balls, I don't like a lot of the new levels as much as the old, and I almost think there is too much extra content in this game. It's overwhelming! But worst of all, the online still acts up for me. I feel like Melee was a better overall experience.

When it's working properly, it's still a lot of fun, which is the only reason why I give it a 7.

Also I gave it a 9.5/10 because of the online. It sucks but I barely go on anyway and Offline Multiplayer is the best the Wii has to offer. It is the top offlien multiplayer in this gen.

Of course I do! It's a great game, packed with characters and stages. Although now, every time i play it i cant help but think of new ideas. In my head i have bumped up the playable character roster to 60. (Dont worry, they could all fit in and make sense). Like Zant, Waluigi, Megaman, Dark Samus...theres just loads. But it really is a great game. Top notch music, loads of trophies to look at and best of all: its damn fun

I love it as a jukebox

It's average to trash everywhere else.

There's so much wrong with the game that didn't need to be wrong. They take away advanced moves but in turn they weaken the entire game because you can never get rid of spammers in a button masher. So like what's the point? Now you have reduced the gameplay and allowed even more spam opportunities.

The story mode was punishment, we did something very bad to Nintendo and they punished us by making that God awful Subspace mode. Whatever we did to them it was BAD.

Online has already been talked about enough, it did not do well compared to what was expected.

I love it. It's fantastic.

Contrary to most people, I highly enjoyed the SSE, for the most part. The Great Maze was just terrible, though.

The gameplay itself has been highly refined from Melee, making it more accessible and much more fluid.

The ridiculous amount of content in the game is great as well. Stickers, trophies, music, characters, stages, demos, replays, screenshots, etc. It's a very big game.

The graphics and audio are topnotch.

Online is buggy, but if you get it working properly, it's fun as well.

So, 9.5/10.

I gave it a 9.0 because I love the extra content that it has, but I'm never really got into the game. However I was at my friends house and it was pretty fun playing with him, and trying to unlock everything so I guess that warrants a 9.0.

It's an absolutely amazing game. The SSE alone made it worth the money, it was just epic.

Smash bros is all about the multiplayer. Brawl failed to give a compeditive online multiplayer which is why I stopped playing it months ago.

Almost perfect.

The only things that would have made it better would have been better online, and a few more 3rd party characters. MegaMan and Travis Touchdown in the next one, por favor!

If it had a great online experience, it would deserve a 10/10. I feel it is a 9.5, as it is great offline multiplayer. It is a game MADE FOR online, it's sad that they couldn't make it so.

I love it, mostly for the multiplayer. Playing with your friends on there is extremely fun, especially if you are pretty competitive. Overall I would give it a 9.5

I give it a 9.9! The only thing holding it back IMO is the horrid online battles. I really don't see how people can enjoy melee more. The only things removed where the glitches, a few clones, and mewtwo who they replaced with lucario. Besides that, the only possible negative is that the game plays a bit slower. Still, I think the massive amount of new content more than makes up for that.

its a good game, but overall just a safe sequel. the gameplay didnt change much. all they added to it was the smash balls which basically just another item (which i always turn off since they put too much emphasis on luck).

online mode is pretty much useless. even if you could smoothly run every game, there is really no insentive to. they shouldve added a bunch of exclusive stickers and trophies to give the player a reason to keep playing online. on the plus side, you never really have to touch the online mp since the local mp is still very good (if not getting a bit stale from being virtually the same as melee...).

though i cant deny that the music is awesome and the new characters (especially snake) are fun to play as.

id probably give it either a 7 or 7.5.

Let me put it this way. The smash series has provided me with the greatest video game experiences of all time. NOTHING is better than playing with a group of about 10 people and Brawl is by FAR the best one. This might seem strange coming from a smash tourney jock, but Brawl just fixed the game (it's fun again!). The online is shakey, but the whole point and fun of smash comes form the local multiplayer. Even if the online rocked you know that playing with your friends in the same room is a far better experience. Then they crammed this game full of awsome extras. I give it a 9.9/10 because I save the 10/10 for Pikmin 2

P.S. I play without items 95% of the time (again a tourney guy) However when I play smash with my younger cousins I make it more chance oriented so that they can win. (smart bombs and smash balls on high with sudden death) due to options this game can be as luck oriented or skill oriented as you choose. Matches are generally quick for switch offs and there is no split screen to make your screen too small. Smash Bros. Brawl is the best multiplayer game ever made!

it's fun, but I don't think it's anywhere near as good as Melee. They added too many characters that are completely unnecessary, too many clones of other characters, They messed with movesets that didn't need to be messed with, resulting in good moves getting replaced with useless ones (FLUDD? Why?), And the Smash balls range from completely unfair to pointless. They just changed too much that didn't need change. I'd give it a 7/10.

I actually think that is is pretty bad for $50. Seriously, it was really not much of an improvement over Melee and for $50 dollars, I played it like 5 times and said... "whelp...its smash bros with sonic and snake... "

Every once and a while I'll come upon a post stating how Melee was better or its their favorite version. I'm a diehard fan of Smash and to these ppl I ask the question: "Why?" They balanced almost every single character in Brawl! Melee was fun but it had some glaring balance issues that made the game not fun for everybody, I can't tell you how many times I've been told that Fox was cheap in melee. Yes he was. Broken is a better word, wavedash and down b sound familiar? Brawl is a great game, the only thing that I could say is strange about it is the clear and deliberate speed loss from Melee. I personally feel as though this was an improvement and that the game feels like it has a better grasp on physics because of this.

Anyways, yes I do really like Brawl. Aside from the incredibly awful online mode, this game is flawless.

I personally think its one of the best games on the wii. That's not necessarily a good thing because I don't enjoy brawl as much as I enjoyed melee. I personally wish they kept all the characters the same and just added more, not take away. Between 1-10, what do you give brawl. If not a 10, please explain why(though you don't have to)staticdawg

im actually pretty happy with the new charachter balance. the easiest way to see this difference is to look at melee's top tier vs bottom tier and brawls. in melee, if you took on fox or falco with mewtwo you basically had no chance to win. in brawl you can take a low end charachter like gannon and at least compete with metaknight. balance still isnt perfect, but its come a long way.

I'd say 10/10. SSE wasn't superb, but it was ten times better than Melee's (or any other fighting game's for that matter). Online is a really cool addition, especially with friends. It is a little laggy, but it's better than no online at all. I could go on about how much it added, but I've already made a blog about it here.

8.5/10. It's a great game with a wide amount of content and superb pick-up-and-play gameplay, but it had what I call "been there, done that" syndrome. It wasn't fresh enough to set itself far away from Melee, which most of us played a lot of. But besides the agonizing SSE and the laggy, shallow online, I very much enjoyed multiplayer since day one and also enjoyed the extensive new character roster (fewer clones than melee, YAY!!).
