Just read the review and that's probably the best, most down-to-earth-and-straight-to-the-point-review ive read in awhile, especially for a game like Brawl's caliber. The writer isn't a Sony or Microsoft fanboy at all and pretty much sumed up my feelings for the game... he gave it a very positive review and this quote made me chuckle a little...
"In addition to the expanded roster of beloved Nintendo characters, Brawl takes the somewhat unusual step of introducing fighters from outside Ninten-space—specifically, Konami badass Solid Snake, and Mario’s long-time, cold-war, not-really-rival Sonic the Hedgehog (no Tails in tow, however…and good thing, too; the more rabid Nintendo fan-boys would have a fresh-meat Friday on his furry ass!)"
The only negative points he made about the game is it's obviously lacking online features thanks to friend codes and Nintendo's kid-friendly approach to online, and he also knocked the game for its long load times, which lets be honest, go back and play Melee and there's hardly any loading at all, where in Brawl it's constant for every little menu and thing you do, and often lasting several seconds between levels in the Subspace mode. Also he said graphically Brawl is basically just a prettier Melee with widescreen and progressive scan added, which is expected given that it was developed for two Gamecubes duct-taped together the Wii.

You know I was always wondering why no one ever used the dollar sign for $ony, but then I realized they have no money so it would be pointless.
