Although this game has several new features, I was in part disappointed. Mostly because the physics engine are so different compare to Melee that you have to play differently in this game. The character that I most use is Link, and to tell you the truth, though Brawl Link looks better, I still prefer the Melee Link, and so with other characters as well. Another thing that I didn't like was that this game doesn't have past stages like the DK and Dream Land stages that were also in Melee, oh and yes, Final Destination from Melee is better than Brawl's, though the music is cool. The online experience wasn't as I expected. Not only there's server connection problems with this game, but the online game is TOO limited. It doesn't have like stats, records or whatever is thats helps you keep track of your online gaming like there is in PLAYSTATION NETWORK or XBox Live games. It doesn't have options for your matches, I mean you can't choose whether you want "free-4-all", "3 player" contest or a "1v1" contest and you can't set rules like stock, time, etc. it has to be a 2 minute contest only. You can set rules in Friends Mode, but it would be better if you could do it in Anyone Mode as well. I hope this changes in the future, because as I said before, the online experience for this game was not as I expected. And for last, the most important thing that I was VERY DISAPPOINTED with was the removal of the WAVEDASH technique, along with few other techniques. I don't know to this point if there's a new way to do it, but you can't do it the same way you do it in Melee. I would've love so much to do it in Brawl. All this and few other little details were the things that I dislike from Super Smash Bros. Brawl 703098@blogcritics.org Mon, 17 Mar 2008 10:38:24 EDT
