Believe me when i say this: i played Brawl more than most people in this thread. It is a great game, its even my favorite Wii game, but i still wouldn't label it a fighter...

Its a multi player beat em up and nothing else, you can call it fighter all you like but it still doesn't make it one. Its like saying that GTA4 is a fighter, you can also make that game a 1 on 1 fighter if you like. Hell The Warriors (a Rockstar Games beat em up) is as much a fighter as brawl, maybe more.

Seeing as how you ignored my previous post:

Brawl is 1 on 1, has a life gauge and has rounds. It has all the elements "traditional" fighters also have. It is a fighter.

I didn't ignore your previous post, in fact GTA4 has life bar and one on one fights so its a fighter...

Brawl is a multi player beat em up, not a fighter. You can make it into "fighter" if you really want, but you can do that with a lot of games, including GTA4.

In GTA4, the goal of the game is NOT to win a fight. There is no win or loss screen and there are no win/loss statistics like any other fighter has. You analogy is extremely flawed, and honestly, I think you're just trying to stir things up.

Why do i even bother... There is online vs in GTA 4, so if you wan't you can just fight with your hands and woohoo victory screen for the winner.

You ignore 99% of the game and talk about 1% to make a point, that's why it's flawed.

Let me ask you a question: is there any tournament scene regarding GTA4's fighting mini-game?

There is a tourament scene in just about any game not just fighting games. Now im not sure that there is one in GTA4, but just because a game has a tourament scene doesn't make it a fighter. Star Craft alone has a bigger tourament scene than every fighter combined.

I'm not talking about GTA4 I'm talking about GTA4's fighting mini-game.

My point is, you can't just pick a tiny portion of a game and call it genre X. Brawl has an entire tourney scene dedicated to FIGHTING. No party brawling, no items whatsoever.

You can't deny that Brawl is a fighter when millions of people play the game intensively as a fighter, just because you can also play it like a party brawler.
