I wish MK2 online had more detailed stats, like a breakdown of W/L for each character. It amazes me how conservative Nintendo is when it comes to online. It's only a "plus" to diehard nintendo fanboys, serious gamers see the lack of online stats for the console's AAA multiplayer combat game as totally lame. |
I've played games since I was 5 and still enjoy all types of games (RPGs, Action, FPS/TPS, Racing, etc). That makes me a casual gamer? Ok then...
And I for one am glad and relieved that there will be no ranking system. In Hunters, Star Fox Command, and Mario Kart DS, people disconnected left and right just because losing would hurt their "precious record." Even on Mario Strikers Charged, people still desconnect even though they get punished because they don't want the opposite perso nto get that many points for winning (Ex. I was beatingone one guy 8-1, and he disconnected with 5 seconds left). I'm glad that Brawl is just going to focus on THE FUN OF THE GAME, not someone's precious record. When I first saw this topic, I was hoping "oh man, I hope it's not complaining about a lack of rankin/leaderboard system" and wouldn't you know... it was. So this can be considered a good thing a a bad thing depending on the person you are.
As for dmg6780, you know Halo 1 for the computer (and I believe it's the same with the Xbox, but I could be wrong)? There was no leaderboard and ranking system, yet people continue to play online today. I'm sure you are into Halo, right?
