Forums - Nintendo Discussion - Super Smash Bros. Brawl Review

Don't overhype it guys. Melee was one of our favorite games ever(Nintendo fans) but it averaged about a 89.9? I believe it'll hit somewhere around in there. I will be very satisfied if it gets above a 9/10. That would just make my day, honestly.

IGN has been pissing me off lately in all of their podcasts, honestly. That one little guy who is always hating on the 360 and the Wii seems to roam the hallways to make sure he gets on every one. You obviously know the guy, he's got the little prick voice.

Anyway, if somehow it DOES hit the 10 ten at gamerankings or metacritic, I will probably shit a brick, excuse my french.

To me, I have no doubt it'll be a 10/10, because my reviewers tilt is so off the charts positive, that I would love the game if you had to make armpit farts to perform a smash.

IGN prediction: 9/10

Gamespot depends on the reviewer, and I hate to say it, but with Gerstman gone, we have a much better chance at a good score.

Gametrailers: 9/10

Xplay: 5/5

Averaging a 93 would put my predictions right on mark, but I might be a little high, so I'm sticking with "happy with a 90".



I don't need your console war.
It feeds the rich while it buries the poor.
You're power hungry, spinnin' stories, and bein' graphics whores.

NO NO, NO NO NO.

Anyone know if we'll be able to access ZS Samus through the menu (through some sort of button combination, possibly)?

Having to get a smash ball as Samus to use her would mean that she'll probably be the least played character in the game.

Select Samus and then hold R when pressing Start to go to the stage screen.

Either that or hold R when selecting Samus. I forget which, but yes, you can, which means both ZSS and Sheik are fully playable even without items on.

Nice, that's good to know.

 

I don't really care about review scores - I just want the game to be more balanced than melee.

Great game, great score

@ Hyperion

Why are IGN Bums? They don't nitpick, I love their reviews. They hold games to a high standard, and rightfully so.

Man, I think the little prick guy I hate over there is a PS3 fanboy, that's why I have a problem lately.

This game has everything Melee had and TONS more...I don't understand how it can't do better...except for the sequelitis mentioned. Which is lame...that's how fighters work...we DON'T want radical change...we want evolution of the gameplay we've grown to love. But even then...the difference between Subspace Emissary and the Adventure Mode of Melee is about as radical as it can get...APPRECIATE IT YOU STUPID REVIEWERS!

Also, yes ZenfoldorVGI, that was quite the fail...I will hype this game forever!

Bet with disolitude: Left4Dead will have a higher Metacritic rating than Project Origin, 3 months after the second game's release.  (hasn't been 3 months but it looks like I won :-p )

If this guy's review is true and they improved on everything in melee then I am happy. Who cares if the stage editor is basic? We didn't have it before so I am happy that they included something new. Besides, he probably didn't unlock everything in the editor.



another 10 from the hundreds this game will receive.

To epsilon72:

From GameFAQs:

To use Zero Suit Samus at the start of a match, select Samus on the character screen and hold the following button before the match starts with the corresponding controller that is being used:

Gamecube/Classic controller: Hold the R button
Wii Remote with Nunchuk: Hold the Z button
Wii Remote: Hold the Minus (-) button



Booe, not an 11/10!

 

What do you guys think... Is this game gonna be in the top 10 best games ever?...

 

Famitsu = 40/40

Thunderboltgames = 10/10

 



THE NETHERLANDS

on gamerankings so far, SSBB has a 100% because of this rating
