I'm surprised this thread hasn't hit the bucket! (and I'm giving it life ironically!) Let's settle this once and for all!

YAHTZEE DOESN'T LIKE FIGHTING GAMES!!![/endofargument]

Thank you for your time.

Spot on review. I said the same thing about Marth with the addition of "is that a dude or a chic? :S" This game is terrible.

Yahtzee fanboys never miss an opportunity to mindlessly parrot every one of his views.

there are actually reasons to have sonic and snake in the game, but they are really shitty ones.
snake= the first game in the metal gear series is metal gear. it was from another system that i didnt know shit about that was to the nes. later on, they stopped trusting nintendo and made a game called metal gear on the ps1. (wait, if they didnt trust them anymore, WHY THE FUCK WOULD THEY PUT HIM ON BRAWL?!?)
sonic= sonic started as a mascot for sega, they were in a "war" with nintendo. later, sega lost and they started making games for nintendo's systems.
so, im feeling that brawl STOLE snake. i dunno about sonic though... stupid nintendo shit! :mad: the wii sucks!!!

The first MG game for PS was Metal Gear Solid, not just Metal Gear. Nitpicky, but I'm kind of that way. Not exactly that they didn't *trust* Nintendo, it's just that Sony's system was riding the wave of the future with CDs while Nintendo was trumpeting the advantages of cartridge-based games. Seeing as PlayStation basically won the last two console generations, I'd say their choice was apt.

And anyway, I vaguely remember hearing that the MGS developers (including Kojima) were literally begging for Snake to be included. And if Snake really was "stolen", I imagine Konami would be suing Nintendo silly for copyright infringement and intellectual property theft.

I got the game just recently, I think it's awesome, and I play it frequently. However, I don't disagree with Yahtzee or anyone else on the forums. The adventure mode is way too damn long and repetitive, half of the game needs to be unlocked, and some characters can easily win a game by mashing random buttons.

I think it's perfectly OK to use characters like Snake and Sonic in Nintendo games. However, I do see two big problems with this.

One, as a big fan of Nintendo, I really hoped that the first big game with Sonic and Mario together would've been a platformer that would be the best in the existence of the world. But no, the only games so far with the two of them together are Mario + Sonic at the Olympic Games, which more or less was a crappy Mario Party ripoff, and Brawl, which, instead of them working together in a dream team for the ages, has Mario and Sonic beating eachother's skull in with Beam Swords. COME ON NINTENDO AND SEGA, WORK WITH US!

Two, I'm deeply afraid that because two non-Nintendo characters got into a Nintendo game, the floodgates have been opened wide. Who's next to join Nintendo? Mortal Kombat? Final Fantasy? Batman?

Alright here it goes....I love Super Smash Brothers Brawl for the Nintendo Wii. There I said it, it's out in the open so here is my take on Yahtzee's review. He is correct about single player sucking. When you play the single player from beginning to end all that is going through your mind is, "So this is what Sakurai (creator of Brawl) decided to do instead of putting more characters and stages in the game." I do have a problem with Yahtzee saying that even a button masher can beat as he called it "that guy". Maybe this is just in my experience with the game but when someone with no knowledge of the game tries to play, they are awful. No amount of button mashing in the world can make you good against a player who can dodge the moves like nobody's business and who knows all the ins and outs of the game or their character of choice. Yahtzee also mentioned the time it takes for you to unlock Snake and Sonic. This comment is very late so you probably know this by now, but all you have to do to unlock Snake is play 15 matches on Shadow Moses. 15 matches can be played in one night of playing with friends. Now Sonic might take you as long as Yahtzee mentioned, but who cares because you have Snake and he is the best in the game or the cheapest, but hey what is a couple of Snake Final Smashes to the face.



Oh yeah and I am not a Smash Bros. Brawl fanboy..................oh wait, yes I am :(

SSB has never been my kind of game for one reason, the combat. I just don't like it, like Yahtzee I think that the camera is too zoomed out and the attacks are either A too simple or be too much shiny for me to like it. I like the idea of pummeling the crap or out of Ike as Mario or as Snake or Sonic (the only two characters I liked from the newest installment. But for me the game just wasn't worth the hype and I really didn't have fun but I can still understand why people like it.

I reckon the gameplay in SSB and SSBM is awsome but SSBB is bloody awful. I disagree with Yahtzee even though he makes some good points, I dislike the game for other reasons.

NOW LET THIS DIE!
