In terms of combos and more in depth fighting gameplay, such as from Street Fighter, Tekken, Guilty Gear, and Marvel vs. Capcom 2, I would have to agree that Smash may seem to be a chaotic, button mashing, no strategy involved game but that is far from the truth.

There's a lot of strategy inside of Smash that people that don't know how to play the game just can't see. I myself play as Jigglypuff and if I were to randomly mash buttons I would DEFINATELY never be able to land a KO on anyone. Landing a rest one-on-one is probably one of the most difficult things to do in the game. I've seen a crazy Falco player knock a character into the air and spike him off the stage so fluently that it made my jaw drop. He proceeded to do that to every one else and won the game with all his lives in tact.

All I'm saying is, don't judge a game you haven't played from watching your children play it or whatever.

You guys who say that you don't like SSB really don't make good reasons as to why you never play it, 'It's so boring'...Ok, how about why? And basically the same? No it isn't it's changed dramatically from when it was on the N64, new game modes and characters, challenges and all! Brawl is also going to be more of a full game, rather than just hitting all those other guys, and girls. Also, you listed DoA as one of your preferences as to SSB...Why? All you do is bash up eachother in that?

P.S The people who I used as examples or quotes from when writing this, do not think that I'm picking on you as I know there are many others that said likewise.

It is a hella stategic game. My old combo. Falcon punch if dodge then falcon kick if dogde prepare to dodge incomoming attack grab from behind smash em into ground prepare falcon punch at percise time. POW!!! Capt. Falcon is teh best!! Be creative!! Make a style that suits you. Think of your own combos instead of just following the ones there for you!!!

i agree... i think people that don't play the game alot don't realize that its so creative as to your own style. i love playing with people that have practice with one character alot, i have done that with Samus, its fun to play with people that actually have a style. I think thats why people don't like it cause no one a style at first. opposed to say street fighter each character has his or her own style

Monsteroids

It takes a while, but you can really pull off weird stuff with some characters.
Rest is a good example.

I'm not here to flame on brawl. I think it is a very advertising game using charcters from all sorts of nintendo games. It doesn't tickle my fancy at all. I tried Melee last year and was interested in it for about 5 minutes. I see it as more of a mini game. But look how good SSB sells. In my opinion, it is only part of a series of backbones for Nintendo, Zelda being the best.

God I love these forums people get so obsessed aginst people who have different opinions here. I never said anything was deeper than smash bros I said I prefer games like SC, DOA, Tekken, VF, and so on. Thats its a preference I don't care about the characters in brawl I see no point of having both daisy and peach slug it out with mario and luigi. I don't like pokemon never have. Also I'm not such a hardcore nintendo fan that I instantly recognize character like Roy, Ness, and Marth. And definetely don't care about filler charcters like Mr Game-N-Watch. I played enough of melee to unlock most of the characters for my kids and then never played it again mainly because it does not appeal to me.

I prefer the graphics of traditional fighters instead of what I call platform fighters. Plus I like where many traditional fighter are going these days with customizable looks and even in some games such as MK a character creator. I grew up playing through the 2-d fighter era and those will always be my favorite style games but as the 3d- fighter became dominent I learned to enjoy all the nuances of such game such timing, counters, reversals, and move combinations. But what I would love to see more than anything else is more original fighting games such as Bushido Blade from the ps1 both 3d fighters and smash brothers have been cloned by so mnay knock off similiar titles I'm honestly kind of sick of both.

Hey if thats what you think, im pretty sure a few of us could except your opinion, if you think other fighters are better than SSB Series then thats your opinion, but its not True, not even close to a fact!

i couldnt have said it better myself. button mashing dosent take skill, smash bros does. this coming from a HUGE fan of streetfighter and capcom vs sereis.

THANKYOU SHOKO, And LLOYD .Y: For at least telling this people that SSB can be just as strategic as any other fighting game

Haywire

WTF is your point? The orignal poster asked if there was anyone who disliked or doesn't care for Brawl with no flamming. Then as soon as people gave their opinions why they didn't care for it the Nintendo Defense force busted in on rappel lines to shut them down. My opinion does not make something fact I never said it did I made it clear that it was preference and why in my opinion I don't care for the Smash brothers series, but here is a shocker your opinions on brawl being superior is not a fact either.

Why you being a HOT-HEAD, what you need to do is CALMZ down, (You taken things too seriously) obviously what you said what that "Shocker your opinions on brawl being superior is not a fact either." I never said it was a fact, i was just stating my own opinion just like you or any other member on this forum would!

Homesrfan

I...
cannot...
wait...
These small little updates are killing me! How can you not like Brawl. I don't really even like fighting games but I love SSB!

Its best not to ask, all the members who said that they did like Brawl was mostly about it didnt have strategy or it didnt appeal to them and that they like traditional fighters that were customizable!!!! (Not that there is anything wrong with that)

Their is no way in Hell that we can be able to change to their opinions, only thing that might change their opinions is if they play Brawl and like it, I guess!!

Haywire

Actually I'm not hot headed but in hindsight that was pretty harsh sounding on my part. But it was in response to people picking single parts of what I said and taking them out of context which was based on opinion and preference.
