Speaking as a fighting game enthusiast, a nintendo fanboy, and a competitive Smash player:

You're absolutely fucking right. At least about Ess Ess Bee Bee. You would think that Snake, a big part of marketing for the game, would at least be playable a first, right? Wrong, and that pisses me off. But at least 15 quick matches on Shadow Moses rectifies that. Sonic's a story for another day.

But I concur with other posters that there was too much hate and not enough funny. Smash hasn't always been about button-mashing (surprise, ************), but this game was engineered that way.

A majority of fighting games are fun and not button-mashing based. Some are button-combo-mashing like Marvel Vs Capcom 2 (Fucking Cable), whereas some are just absolute filth, like Dead Or Alive, whose only selling point seems to be breasts big enough to poke someone in the eye half a world away.

The history of Smash went as such:
Nintendo decided to play around with a multiplayer fighting game, unique from other fighters.

Then Nintendo saw how well the game was received (not just by fanboys)and proceeded to make a new one and improve on some game mechanics.

Then Nintendo shat on people who normally played fighters and turned it into a button-mashing fanboy-fest.

For the most part, spot on, good job, can't wait to troll people with the video.

For those that don't know, he released a review of God of War PSP. He got back on track with his humorously cinic observations, but at the end of the video, he put the text "BRAWL STILL SHIT".

Yup, either he didn't play the game, or he's one of the greatest trolls on Earth.

That's a lot to quote. First of all, you're clearly not a Nintendo fanboy, you're just saying that in the desperate hope that it will make your opinion sound more convincing. Which it doesn't. Second, we're now in the (relatively speaking) intellectual part of the forum, where the people with loud opinions, short attention spans and irrational logic have already gotten bored of saying that something is good or bad without a valid point. Which leads me nicely to my third point: how exactly has SSBB "shat" on fighting game players? Back it up with some reasoning, if you've got any. How have the controls for fighting differed? And no, slight modifications like the removal of wavedashing or the adding of tripping don't count.

AND FURTHERMORE, in case you're not already bored to tears reading this post, the reason most fighting games are button-mashers is BECAUSE they rely on combinations, something Smash Bros has been able to avoid, hence its popularity with non-fighting game players. In my experience with other fighting "combination" games, as you described them, whenever I learned the combinations to a particular character, I'd still lose to a random button masher, and I always stood a very good chance when I knew nothing, say for instance, oh I don't know...MARVEL Vs. CAPCOM, maybe?

The Randomness in brawl stems mostly from the other point Yahtzee brings up, that being the "clusterfuck" behind a veil of smoke, and how brawl has more stuff that explodes this time around.

And now my fingers hurt from typing, which, blitzy, I blame entirely on you.

Actually, I think he did it for fun, to see the reaction. After all, he DOES claim to be have a hatred for other humans, right? (Chuckling).

PISSED AT YAHTZEE!!!!!

yahtzee is quite honestly a twat...
well alright maybe hes alright but that doesn't annoy me....
alll that annoys me is that the EGOTISTICAL PESSIMISTIC f**k has stolen all my friends as all they seem to do sit at home and slowly melt thier minds as they wait for the next yahtzee video. not only that but when i do find people to go out with all they do is repeat yahtzee lines until i have to beat them to death with the leg of another yahtzee fanboy...

and about the whole "ooohhh no boo hoo ...you have to unlock game characters" shit that everybody talks about...if you didnt then you would have no goal, the game would be shit... it would be about as much fun as playing with a toaster...
...
...
...
...in a swimming pool
maybe im getting carried away i've said i like yahtzees videos and i would have nothing against them if anyone who saw them would instantly be addicted and take them litterally, which in turn would end video games as all of them apart from about 3 wouldn't exist..."OH NO" people would scream as they realise the only thing yahtzee could now review is the latest democratic debate.
...OH WAIT nobody would really care as your all so addicted to these videos you would watch a video of him critisising his own shit!!!
...dont worry if that ever happens im sure ther'll be lines of people lining up to destroy every democratic system on the earth untill we all end up in anarchy and some crazed fan comes to find me and hunt me down...too bad he watches all of these videos so much i doubt that he would have moved in the last 3 months and therefore would be easier to beat in a fight than a pig and butcher tag team...

basiclly my message is...YAHTZEE GREAT VIDEO
...everybody else stop trying to fuck him up the arse everytime he turns round to tell someone else to stop it.

But...you replied just as fast...

And it's hard not to see (even if by accident) the first page of comments, before skipping to the last.

I smell hypocrisy.

He IS a God!
He reviews games for EVERY gaming system and does not favour one over the other.
I haven't found another reviewer like that.
And the hottest thing about it is the fact he tries to talk about how bad they are.
That's right.
I said it was hot.


...
Awesome review!

he does favour one under the rest...
everytime he reviews a wii game he just compares anyone playing it to and 8 year old shouts about how much you have to move, then says crap game id rather play with shite...
p.s... congratulations you're defending yahtzee on an internet forum and are now officially a fan boy
