| Bodhesatva said: I definitely believe it does, and I say that as a person who does not like SSB very much but who has a strong like for VF5 on my PS3. That isn't about SSB necessarily being a better game. It's about the overall philosophical movement of the industry away from "more complexity is always better" towards "complexity can be a good thing, but not always, and it doesn't necessarily make a game deeper." In that vein, despite my personal affection for VF5, SSB is one of the leading lights in the industry. As is Team Fortress 2, and Wii Sports. |
I actually find Smash Brothers a lot more complicated and harder to play then the virtua fighter series. It's one of the reasons i don't like the Virtua fighter series actually. Way too easy.
Regardless, if more stuff made fighters obsolete, King of Fighters would of did that a long time ago.
