Hey Riot, didn`t you use to say that SSBB was an overrated game, that 9.0 and 9.5 were bullshit scores for Brawl?

OT: SMG will pass Halo 3 without a doubt. Just look at Zelda TP sales. These games have amazing legs. Sales go up near the Holidays and they even outsell games on their 1st and 2nd week.

It could all change if Microsoft creates a Halo 3 + 360 bundle. It would probably be a good idea for them since it would boost console sales as well as XBL subscriptions.

Yeah, but I changed my mind. Smash Brothers has top of the line gameplay.

9.0 isn't a BS score, really. I'm talking about stuff like Bioshock getting 95% or Galaxy getting 97%. That shit's just crazy.

SMG also has top of the line play if you like platformers.

As ItsaMii pointed out, the Legend of Zelda has been on the market for 72 weeks and still is averaging 32,000+ units per week and has higher sales than Halo 3 ... It is quite plausable that games like Mario Party 8 and Super Mario Galaxy will continue to outsell Halo 3 at their slow and steady pace until they pass its worldwide total.

I completely disagree. Platformers are my favorite genre, and I think SMG's gameplay was not where it should have been. Smash Brothers is on a completely different level all together. SMG's gameplay left a lot to be desired.

IMO these scores are bullshit for different reasons. Why not hand these games a 10 and call it a day? It is not like there is any better games on their respectives genres (now or in near future). You should not make your mind before playing the games or you will have to eat crow just like in SSBB case.
