When I was 12 or so, I had memorized every single special move and fatality in Mortal Kombat 2 and 3, and even most of the friendships and some of the cheat codes. I was a walking encyclopedia of MK2 and 3 moves.
I am SOOO glad Smash Bros. became my favorite fighting game. Now I don't have to teach somebody 500 moves to play them. I can say "this is the hit button, that's the special move button, there are 4 per character depending on which direction you push, you can double jump and triple jump to stay in the ring, and you win by ring-outs, sumo style. Let's rock." That's how fast I can train a nub at Brawl. This game saved the fighting genre for me.
Yeah I got Mortal Kombat: Armageddon for the Wii, to have every MK character ever in one game, to like, say goodnight to the series, AND because you can use gestures for moves so I don't have to re-learn the billion combos I used to know. I'm not 12 anymore. I don't want to memorize that kind of bullshit anymore.
This guy seems to miss being a 12 year old dooshbag with ridiculous button combinations to memorize, and claims that Brawl is too fast and too slow at the same time. He's a dick.
Yeah, I'd say Smash Bros. is the thinking man's fighting game. The characters are more diverse, what with flying characters, rotating Pokemanz, Sonic, Olimar, all completely different gameplay styles. And you have to use you environment in the battle, which changes the gameplay too. It's like the Portal of fighting games.
