Check it out on the site but they gave the game a 9.5 which is good enough for me

But they really ditched on the graphics which kinda pissed me off
 
They called it 'An Enhanced Melee'. The graphics are way better than that.
 
9.5 is good... but not a 10, which I knew they weren't going to give it because I listen to their podcast. I wasn't expecting higher from them, because they said Brawl wasn't as good as Galaxy or Corruption, but still...

I'm still happy about the perfect scores from NP and Famitsu, however.

Well, thats stupid. Brawl can't be compared to Melee.

Whatever.. 9.5 is fine, i guess.
What would you give it?

I still think it will be better than Galaxy or Corruption. They even said you will play this game so much longer than the other two.

Um... Is that supposed to be a question?


:p

A 10/10 of course.
 
You guys are gaging Brawl's... "greatness" by its replay value. IGN's obviously looking at everything; sound, gameplay, graphics, etc... so sure, by that logic, perhaps Galaxy is better than Brawl.

I'm gonna disagree, of course, but still.

I think their score is just fine. In fact, I was expecting lower, since Matt said he wouldn't rate it as high as Metroid or Galaxy. I was actually thinking they'd give it a 9.3 or 9.4.

Gotta wonder, though, if Brawl might have a chance of getting into the Top 10 at GameRankings and Metacritic.

I doubt it.
Super Smash Bros. Brawl is probably going to be a huge disappointment to me.

When were we talking about your personal tastes?

Gamerankings doesn't represent your opinion, last time I checked. It's a review aggregate, and currently, Brawl's scores range from 95 to 100. That's top 10 material right there.

Edit - And what's with the melodrama? "Huge disappointment"? Save the verdict for when you play the game.

But then again, we all have our own tastes. Smash Bros is so much to me, because I've played all of the games all the characters have starred in. It's a big deal to me, being a Nintendo fanatic like that.

Last time I checked, some site gave it a 9.3.


^_^

OK, 9.3 to 10.

3 reviewers gave OoT a 9. And yet it's sitting at the top of the GameRankings list.

Your point?
Judging from recent videos, I'm probably going to give Brawl a 8.5.

Wow... just wow.
 
you can't spell ignorant without ign.

other characters kinda like Ike, where he's basically a stand-in for Roy, in the old game, with some new moves.
wait, what? Ike is far from a "stand-in"... Totally different style. He's slow and strong because he has to lug that giant sword around, making for long animation times before/after hits. He only has one move in common, the counter. But I guess that in IGN's eyes, if a character has ONE move that's like someone else's he's just a "stand-in"... pshh.

And then you've got things like Fox, Wolf, and Falco where they're pretty much identical characters, Identical smashes, and basically a model swap.
once again.. WHAT? Yes, Fox and Falco are clones.. but Wolf!? *sigh*... he has a totally new set of smashes, and his special moves are totally altered. The only thing they really have in common is the final smash <_<

I also liked the fact that he used "special move" and "smash" interchangably


-_-

Fox and Falco ARE NOT CLONES! Ike is nothing compared to Roy, NOTHING.

And judging by those quotes.... HAVE THEY EVEN PLAYED THE GAME?!

I'm sure they have.. but it seems like they're judging just from videos X_X

I'm not even going to read the review, or else I've have to hate mail them.

/mad at ign.
