Review Summary

Super Smash Bros Brawl this is the most anticipated game for wii owners, especially those who have the previous versions of the popular fighter game. Super Smash Bros Brawl doesn’t disappoint. Wit the wii actions are swift and incredible. Most reviewers say that it is an incredible game. Super Smash Bros Brawl is hectic, and with the multiplayer it is really interesting. The game features unique Nintendo Character based fighter, new and brilliant graphics, and gameplay. With the new remote-controller and the Wi-fi enabled for internet connectivity takes Super Smash Bros Brawl to a new level with more challenges. The gameplay is very smooth smash moves are slightly different, you just have to slightly tilt the control stick a bit. Combos are slightly different as you can just hold the button down instead of button bash. Throws will result in similar damage, and the knock back is almost the same procedure. Many rewievers are full of praise for this game and they fully recommend it. Super Smash Bros Brawl will appeal to old and young, professional or amateurs alike. Gamers will be so hooked that stopping will be hard.

    Brawl has the most characters, is the best balanced, delivers the most and generally trumps both the other games so far. The graphics may not be that far in advance of Melee, but they never had to be in the first place - they looked good already. Brawl opens its arms wide to embrace both new and old players, the hook of familiar names and uncomplicated mechanics combining with a wide choice of control methods and a subtle depth for those who dig deeper.

    I guess we should be grateful we've got the most anticipated game on the Wii at all. Personally, I would've thought that releasing the biggest game on the Wii this year at the correct time would be a good thing, but what do I know? Rant over Thankfully though, if there was ever a definition of a major must-have game, Super Smash Bros Brawl fits the bill even better than Metal Gear Solid 4, which still has its detractors (me being one of them). Speaking of which, even MGS... Read more

    johnwaddy.com This game has a lot of replay value. Playing multi-player with the kids never gets old, and it is simple enough that even my 3 year old can win some battles. The Space Emissary is a nice side scrolling game with a decent story. Online mode is pretty good, although I wish two players could play worldwide, instead of just one. The replay value is excellent. I could see us continuing to play the game a couple of years from now, and still enjoying it. Only down... Read more

    While I don't own this game at my own house, my cousin has it and we play it together all the time. I'm thinking of buying it for myself sometime, whether it's off Newegg of at the video game store in my town. This game always deserves a new 5-star review! Read more

    Wii has absolutely outdone themselves with this game, when i first started it, i thought hmm this game could do with a few things and i didn't really get used to it straight away, and then day 2 came!! and it really blew me away, i hooked up my Wii to my cerwin vega speakers and the game came to life (might have been because of the speakers) but the music is good for the game not like the usual music you used to get on some adventure games, the story mode is 10/10 the...
