Congrats to Brawl. It looks like those many extra months in development pumping out little modes and details is paying off in spades critically. I'm sure it deserves every bit of praise it's getting and I can't wait to pick up my copy this month so I can start kicking your asses online.
For those arguing about Gamespot's and IGN's 10/10 scores, you have to understand they were more lenient back then and awarded larger scores on the whole. Everyone seems to forget that while Gamespot is tough as nails on reviews now, they've given out four 10's in total...
Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 3 for PS2
Chrono Cross for PS1
Soul Calibur for Dreamcast
Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time for Nintendo 64
...while IGN has only given out two...
Soul Calibur for Dreamcast
Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time for Nintendo 64
...so at least the two they agree on can be considered up there amongst the greats of all time and they both already are. I've yet to see a top 100 of all time list that doesn't include both LOZ and SC.
