Project M: Amazing Smash Bros.

[oobla37]

I just want you guys to understand how complex this game is even without items....

Blech Meelee.  The gravity was so weird in that game compared to the original, thankfully they fixed it in Brawl.

Brawl is a scourge on the Smash series.

And thanks for posting that video, oobla. It furthers my point --

Even with items on, if you're good, you're going to win regardless. Items just put temporary brakes on the rape train.

I'll have you know that the gravity is the main reason people play melee over brawl. It's a much faster game.

[Billy]

Considering Project M's sole purpose was to make Brawl more like Melee again, with updates, it's safe to say Melee is the better game. Far better.

Yeah, the idea with Brawl was to make it more playable for casuals; and that's why they made gravity more floaty. A lot of people used to the precise physics of Melee were betrayed by the new "gravity" of brawl.

I didn't notice too much but the entire game felt new, and I could still destroy with Peach and Yoshi despite people saying they were de-buffed.

Brawl was SUPER casual, considering they increased frame delay in hits, making it nearly impossible to combo anyone for anything.

Completely off topic and possibly the only post I'll make in this thread.
Me and my friend a massive tournament of all the brawl character 1VS1 (A.I) with 5 lives and we had all of them fight till only one of them remained.
In the end it came down to Donkey Kong vs Peach and Peach used Donkey Kongs final smash (The one with all the food) to heal fully and then proceeded to kill Donkey Kong 5 times in a row and win the tournament.

Look, all I'm sayin is stay true to the original, I guess you guys were maybe too young for that games heyday, but Meelee fucked up the gravity we had in the original Smash Bros game on N64 and Brawl gave it back.

Nuff said.

Explains what everyone's beef is with Brawl.  I played enough Meelee to unlock everything then decided to wait for Brawl and I was rewarded with what I wanted.

But this doesn't make any sense at all. I'm pretty sure everyone here (in this thread specifically) is old enough to have played ssb64 in its prime. I know I am. And I did. I've been playing Smash since I was five. I've had a nintendo 64 for 14 years, and I still have it. I still play the original with my friends all the time -- and brawl was nothing like it. SSB64 was just as competitive as Melee, and that's the reason why we played it in the first place. Their beef with brawl has nothing to do with age or the original. It's the opposite. People don't like it because it's NOT like the original. There's no way to play it competitively. It's a completely casual game -- and you're a casual, so I guess it makes sense.

And before this becomes an argument: No, being a "casual" isn't a bad thing. It doesn't have a negative connotation behind it. I'm not trying to come off as an elitist because I play a game differently than you.

Yo I remember the sn64, jet force gemini in this bitch.

[Christovski]

Jet Force Gemini was awesome, in an age where there was no co-op mode to games, having the second player able to control Floyd while the first played the main character was the coolest thing ever.

My favorite n64 game of all time was probably Perfect Dark.
