So what's going to happen after Gamespot flops SSBB?

because obviously they wont play it for NEARLY long enough before writing the review. The SSBB game that the reviewers play in a week for the review will be a totally different one from the game played by gamers in the next 1-2 years. Im talking metagame + adv techs included.

Then they'll proably say its more of the same, and if the sp sucks (which it probably will) they'll hit it for that too because it is actually trying to have a good sp (and probably wont), then they might even say it doesnt use waggle.

After giving SMG goty and NMH AAA, gs can do no wrong right? what happens when SSBB flops? its going to MP3.

Everybodies going to be playing it who doesnt care for gamespots reviews.blitzkid1

Wii owners won't be on the forum to care.Gimli524

ROFL that's true.

and honestly i wouldn't care personally, GS's credibility has been on the line for quite sometime really.

It's a trick question... it won't flop.

Lol. Both are great games but have NOWHERE near the replayability of SSB.

TP though was a hit in the face, till this day i don't know what went on in jeff's head.

so this time, we're actually expecting it.

GS couldn't even trash this one. It can't flop, it just cant.OGTiago

Hype = AA,

So I think it's fairly unlikely to flop.

Even so, SSBB will still do fine at GR (where it really matters), and sales will be brisk. As usual, the GS review won't mean much outside the confines of this forum.

Well, here's the thing:

1. It won't flop. Gamespot reviewers seem to really like games that have a variety of features, and SSBB certainly has that. I've lost count of the different modes and such they have available so far.

2. If it did flop, no one would care... or at least not as much as we would have before. I can't believe I'm saying it, but after the whole Jeff fiasco Gamespot really has lost part of its credibility.

3. All of the "tough" reviewers are pretty much gone from the Gamespot staff, so it's unlikely that it will flop.

It would have to be 7.0-7.5 to flop here, I really don't see that happening.

I'm going to enjoy the game for years on end without giving any credence to GS's score.

The game is hyped AA anyway. I doubt it will get a 7.5, and even if it does, I really won't care. I won't agree (most likely), but I won't complain.

ok no i wotn be but still that would be lame for sw.

[QUOTE="---OkeyDokey---"]its hyped AA :|JPOBS

Well SSBM, fantastic in my book, got a AA. Also with some harsh reviewing going on it makes sense. I think It will be AAA but if it did manage to be AA I wouldn't be to surprised. (R&C)

If gamespot starts handing out AAA's a la ign i'll be pretty upset.

Who cares what Gamespot gives SSBB. It will sell MILLIONS.

Unlike every PS3 game *snicker*.

I think Brawl is only hyped AA anyway. I doubt it'll score below a 7.5, honestly.

More people to play online. Not to mention a game like this deserves to sell millions, anything else is unjustful.

Famous last words... before flopage. :P

The hype is AA but I think they'll give it AAA. I don't see how they couldn't at this point.

It can't flop, because while sheep continue to babble endlessly about how its the second coming, GOTY, and the greatest fighting game of all time, the official hype is only AA. NavigatorsGhost

Same exact thing from cows over Uncharted and Ratchet. And anyway I hype it AAA. Hype threads always have random a$$holes going "B" in them.

and all factions do it.

Everyone says some official hype is "AA" but that's bull. We know deep down they hype it AAA, and when that game gets it they'll all explode and pretend to act surprise or just continue this metagame spree at SW and claim "Ownage." Don't lie sheep, you know you hype this to be AAA regardless.

Frankly, I don't think it will NOT score AAA here, but should it fail to obtain that status here at GS. I will turn no head, and instead patiently wait for the day I can play the game. (Assuming the review comes out before the game.)

Dude.... This is brawl...... The best game in the WORLD for fighters. its the king. NO ONE BEATS IT ! lol you thought you had a good point. mines better :P

EDIT: wow... I jus called a game. that i have NEVER played. due to its not bein out.... the best game ever....... :S im turnin into one of them !!!!

Why the hell should I care what Gamespot thinks of the games that I purchase? :|Gunraidan

lmfao fake hype lmfao

the sheep will start to use gamerankings.com....:lol:prodiqy32

Er if Zelda and Metroid didn't make that happen... This won't.

Sheep are just scared to hype anything. Be it "the bias" or "GS doesn't like SSB because SSBM got teh 8.9." :| I wish I knew. You mean to tell me, the most hyped game out for Wii is only expecting AA status? Bull! Sheep know as well as I do, they are hyping this game to be AAA secretly. They just can't man up to some "ownage" on the forums that would happen should the game not reach a shiny 9.0+ score. Well frankly, it's idiotic if you ask me. Melee got 8.9, if this review standard was the same back then, it no doubt would have been pushed into the 9.0 mark. Regardless, I can't buy it. SMG gets GOTY and a 9.5. NMH recieved a 9.0 and you still don't think SSBB can recieve 9.0 or higher cause you are afraid of what? :| yoshi_64

the reason i'm not expecting SSBB to get AAA here is for two reasons.

1. GS is very unexpected lately, not to say they are biased against anything, but their scores really surprise me every now and then, i don't want that to happen with SSBB.

2. read the preview, it's not AAA positive.
