Editorial Review: Amazon.co.uk: The third instalment in Nintendo’s popular Super Smash Bros. fighter franchise debuts on the Wii in Super Smash Bros. Brawl. Loaded with all the characters and features players have loved from the two previous versions, plus much more, it is a worthy addition to the series and yet another must-have title for the Nintendo Wii.
The lifeblood of the Super Smash Bros. series has always been the depth of the character line-up that each instalment has been able to bring and Brawl not only keeps with tradition, but does it one better. Just as in Super Smash Bros. and Super Smash Bros Melee, players can expect to pit their favourite Nintendo characters against each other in head-to-head and multiplayer battles, but instead of insisting on characters exclusively from the Nintendo universe, Brawl adds variety in the form of superstars Sonic the Hedgehog and Solid Snake from Konami’s Metal Gear franchise. This is a first-time addition and one that will delight veteran players and newbies alike. But these two characters are only a sampling of the new additions to the game’s line-up. The other ten come from classic Nintendo titles and bring the complete line-up of playable characters to a whopping 25. See the full list on combatants below:New Comers: Pit from the Kid Icarus series, Wario, Zero Suit Samus, Ike from the Fire Emblem series, Meta Knight and King Dedede from the Kirby series, Pokémon Trainer, Diddy Kong, Lucas from the Earthbound/Mother series, Pikimin and Olimar from the Pikmin series and of course Sonic and Solid Snake.Returning Veteran Fighters: Mario, Link, Kirby, Pikachu, Fox McCloud, Samus, Zelda/Sheik, Bowser, Donkey Kong, Yoshi, Princess Peach and Ice Climbers from the NES title Ice Climber.The Rules of the Brawl As in previous releases in the series, Brawl places players within a different, but easy to use fighting system. Players choose a character, select one of the numerous stages--which are levels based in the game worlds represented in Super Smash Bros.-- and try to knock their opponents off the screen using a range of standard techniques and combos as well as a variety of special attacks and ‘Smash Moves’ specific to their chosen character. A Smash Move can only be performed after securing a ‘Smash Ball.’ These precious items, marked with the Smash Bros. logo, fall randomly and can be used by either player, but they must be cracked open before they can be used. To keep things interesting they can also can be stolen if not used right away, so when a player sees one it must be grabbed quickly and cracked to avoid an unfortunate turn of events.Also, keeping with the game’s "E" rating and player’s affection for the characters, instead of displaying health bars the game uses a percent system to indicate character status and strength. The more damage done to a character, the higher the percentage and the farther back he/she is knocked back when struck by an opponent.Many Ways to Play: Multiplayer and Single Player Options Just as in previous instalments of Super Smash Bros. there is fun to be had whether you choose to fight in multiplayer or single player mode, but Brawl again pushes the envelope even further by providing additional ways to play within these areas and the possibility of others added later. Here are just a few of the modes that you can expect to see:Multiplayer
Because the Super Smash Bros. series has a huge following and an even larger list of characters from the Nintendo catalogue, it only makes sense that players may have a preference for a particular Nintendo controller from the era of their favourite game. Because of this the game’s creators have incorporated all four of the major Nintendo controllers into the mix. Whether you prefer the Wii Remote, the Wii Remote with Nunchuck, the Wii Classic Controller or GameCube Controller it makes no difference. All four are fully compatible with all the features of Super Smash Bros. Brawl, although the handling of each is a little different. Choose the one you are most comfortable with, or explore all your options. The choice is yours.A Barrel Full of Customization Finally, created with an eye towards providing year’s worth of fun, Brawl comes with extensive built-in customization possibilities. Dive into the game’s seemingly endless list of game modes/mini-games, battle stages, in-game items and musical playback options to make the game your own and Brawl the way you want to.

 Rating:  - Best wii game everThe game has characters from the best games, even the old classics. Its fun for a fighting game and story mode isn't bad. Rating:  - Absolute class!!Any doubts about the Nintendo Wii being just for Kids gets blown away by this class of a game. I bought this from Morrisons when they were doing Wii chart games for £15 each, and I decided to get this after some begging to my wife who thought it would be too violent. The way the characters move, the pick ups, story line, the music and retro bits are just genius. The only downside I find is that I am unable to link up with anyone online to brawl with and sometimes I find that the characters are ... Read More: Rating: - The best one yet, but hits the final hurdle.It's clear that they pulled out all the stops for this game. It looks and plays amazingly. The offline modes have dozens of unlockables and levels for you to feast on. My problem is not with the game at its core, but the online feature. Unfortunately, this is extremely basic. When playing with random players, you have no idea of their names, any sort of rank or geographical location. You cannot speak to them nor can they speak to you. Once you leave the game, that's it. You have no idea ... Read More: Rating: - Wow Awesome GameI think a lot of good time has been spent on this game. And they have perfected this. If you like beat em ups, then you will love this. But its the extra game modes what make this. As once you start unlocking items. the game get bigger and bigger. No wonder its on a dual layer dvd. Well done Nintendo. Please more game of this quality. Rating: - Smashing!Who can't enjoy watching Kirby swallowing Bowser, spitting him off the stage and then frying mario with fire breath? Or watching Samus pick up a super spicy curry and taking out King Dedede? If you are worried because you didn't own a Gamecube and never played Super Smash Bros. Melee, then you need not be! The new game offers a perfect starting point for new players. The adventure mode. This is certainly not the best mode in the game and lacks the simplicity you'd get from another ... Read More: |
