A lot of people think that. Personally, I prefer Brawl. The game's often decried for making the gameplay slower and more floaty than Melee and changing up the air-dodge mechanic, but honestly I vastly prefer it that way. Melee was way too fast in retrospect. Good for competitive Smashers... annoying for the rest. Brawl I feel was a much more kinetic game. It had more oomph and weight to the motion, instead of being unrealistically fast and killing any feeling of momentum. At least that's how I see it.Neronium said:
Not to mention all the extra content, especially the stage builder. Yeah, it was really limited, but me and my brother made literally hundreds of stages with that thing.
I think a lot of people were expecting too much a Melee 2 instead of a Smash 3. It's why when I see stuff like Project M I think, "Oh come on, guys. Let it go. We've moved on."
