19. Super Smash Bros. Brawl
Wii (2008)
Sora Ltd.
Super Smash Bros. had one of the greatest hype trains to ever soar through the heavens. Thanks to the Smash Bros. Dojo, a new tidbit of information was given to us gamers every weekday. Some days it'd be an item... another day a brand new character (Like say... Sonic the Hedgehog!). Could a game live up to the incredible expectations given to it? Well Super Smash Bros. Brawl certainly did, and with flying colors. More awesome charactes (King Dedede! Toon Link! Solid Snake?), more awesome levels (Smashville! New Pork City! Pictochat?), an even more expanded single player adventure, one of the greatest music collaborations of all time, and oodles and oodles of options and ways to play. Brawl brought it all. Though some may scoff at the more "noob friendly" changes (Okay... the tripping did suck), I thought it allowed for a more even playing field, which meant more fun for all. And while the online was pretty terrible, it still led to us Smashing around the world (Curse you Peach!!!). Can't wait for the next one. ^_^
