I can't imagine SSBB's single player game being of any substantial length. The real battle here is in online multiplayer, which Halo 3 wins by a mile.

sexy_chimp

how is the main battle in multiplayer at all? That is not the only way you can re-play the game. There are 30+ characters in Brawl, each with their own story that overlaps with all the others. Every time you play a new story you unlock new stages, characters, modes, and more. Super Smash Bros. Melee had 4+ single player modes. Adventure, Classic, Event, and All-Star. Each was cool and added to the replayability of the game. This time around there is an actual story which adds significantly to the single player and the replayibility. Add an online mode, co-op, and an addictive non-splitscreen multiplayer mode and much more that will be announced in the months to come?

It's a close race...

Every fighting game has a lot of characters and unlockables, most of which aren't compelling enough to get anyways. And you're really reaching for straws with the whole story thing. In the end SSBB is a fighting game, and as a result single player game length is exceptionally short. As with most fighters, SSBB is a multiplayer game first. As a multiplayer game it'sprimitive in designand doesn't come close to Halo 3 in features and replayability.

There's NO WAY you've every played a smash bros game after that comment.

Each character is COMPLETELY different (Other than some clones in Melee) so its extremely awarding to unlock them.

Yes, I've played a SB game before. I was referring more to the unlockable trinkets rather than the characters, which are essential to a fighting game. You just can't bring up basic unlockables in the face of such features as Forge and Theatre. It's ridiculous.

the single player is a joke.

i dont care how 'fleshed out" they make brawl's, CPU intelligence is pathetic, and seeing as how the wii isnt much more powerful than a cube, i dont see it getting much better.

primitive in design? Halo is a very BASIC FPS that apeals to all the mindless alike. I own a 360, and Halo 3... and I am really dissapointed in it. Perhaps I was hoping for somthing more innovative, but I just got more of the same. I have grown tired of Halo and it's multiplayer. I am messing around with some stuff, but to me, and SEVERAL OTHERS, Smash Bros has way more re-playilility as we are still playing it.

Of course after this I know your going to scream about how biased everyone is.

Polls of any nature on the internet are worthless for supporting an arguement.

How do you know more sheep didnt see this thread than lemmings? How do you know cows/hermits just didnt vote either way out of spite, how can you discern a fact from a difference of 22 votes?

So what you're saying is, Halo 3 is not a more feature rich game because Brawl got more votes in the poll? This isn't my attempt to claim Halo as the best thing ever. All I'm saying is that Halo 3 clearly has more value to it than Brawl, and the poll should reflect that.

Gamer556

we have not heard everything about Brawl's online as the site said "we have several other features to make online as enjoyable as possible". But as another person said - "replayibility is subjective"

What makes Smash so much fun (and the reason why I still play it), is that you can play it on 1 screen, not use split screen, and have a ton of fun with 3 other people. Not many fighters do that, and everyone knows split screen isn't nearly as fun as having a full screen. That is why you have online in the first place really.

And again... multiplayer is not the only thing that adds "bang for your buck". I played Melee more than Halo and Halo 2 combined (and I played the HECK out of Halo:CE).

Also, don't forget that smashbros.com has over a month to release new modes, features, unlockables, and more.

As I said in the beginning... its a very close race.

I've never played more than 15 hours of halo. Conversely, i've clocked over 700 hours of smash and still play it daily....

What i have really been doing is dispelling rediculous arguements in favor of smash from biased sheep and helping lemmings who wouldnt know how to rebut what you have been saying.

I've been debating objectively the entire time. I havent even voted yet.

Well then, like you said, replayability is subjective. It just happens in this case more people think smash brothers is more replayable.

this poll should be labeled:

sheep/cows/hermits/ssb fanatics/halo haters vs. logical people.

seriously between the types of gametypes, custom gametypes, custom maps, custom replays, the only ranked online gaming that is balanced ("ranked" yet ppl can religously play only one gametype/map? plz...),customs,the biggest community to play with, downloadable maps &gametypes, mic support (its 2007, not 97 nintendo...). not to mention the graphics and superior audio. yes, even to all the nintendo songs that make cameos in the game, halo 3 deliverssome of the most crystal clear, amazing new music ever to be brought into a game and ius never drowned out by the same "ughs" "pows" and "pikas" that they repeatedly scream every second.

all that extra content and its only ten more dollars??? i think u've found the most valuable game of the generation,

So what you're saying is, Halo 3 is not a more feature rich game because Brawl got more votes in the poll? This isn't my attempt to claim Halo as the best thing ever. All I'm saying is that Halo 3 clearly has more value to it than Brawl, and the poll should reflect that.

Gamer556

None of us know the answer to that question as Brawl has not been released.

And no, the poll represents peoples opinions on which game they will probably play more, making it have "more bang for your buck" to them.

this poll should be labeled:

sheep/cows/hermits/ssb fanatics/halo haters vs. logical people.

seriously between the types of gametypes, custom gametypes, custom maps, custom replays, the only ranked online gaming that is balanced ("ranked" yet ppl can religously play only one gametype/map? plz...),customs,the biggest community to play with, downloadable maps &gametypes, mic support (its 2007, not 97 nintendo...). not to mention the graphics and superior audio. yes, even to all the nintendo songs that make cameos in the game, halo 3 deliverssome of the most crystal clear, amazing new music ever to be brought into a game and ius never drowned out by the same "ughs" "pows" and "pikas" that they repeatedly scream every second.

all that extra content and its only ten more dollars??? i think u've found the most valuable game of the generation,

Ugh, silly Halo fanboys. Replayability is subjective like JPOBS said. We're sorry that Halo can't dominate every poll. Try not to lose sleep over it.

I can't imagine SSBB's single player game being of any substantial length. The real battle here is in online multiplayer, which Halo 3 wins by a mile.

sexy_chimp

how is the main battle in multiplayer at all? That is not the only way you can re-play the game. There are 30+ characters in Brawl, each with their own story that overlaps with all the others. Every time you play a new story you unlock new stages, characters, modes, and more. Super Smash Bros. Melee had 4+ single player modes. Adventure, Classic, Event, and All-Star. Each was cool and added to the replayability of the game. This time around there is an actual story which adds significantly to the single player and the replayibility. Add an online mode, co-op, and an addictive non-splitscreen multiplayer mode and much more that will be announced in the months to come?

It's a close race...

Every fighting game has a lot of characters and unlockables, most of which aren't compelling enough to get anyways. And you're really reaching for straws with the whole story thing. In the end SSBB is a fighting game, and as a result single player game length is exceptionally short. As with most fighters, SSBB is a multiplayer game first. As a multiplayer game it'sprimitive in designand doesn't come close to Halo 3 in features and replayability.

There's NO WAY you've every played a smash bros game after that comment.

Each character is COMPLETELY different (Other than some clones in Melee) so its extremely awarding to unlock them.

Yes, I've played a SB game before. I was referring more to the unlockable trinkets rather than the characters, which are essential to a fighting game. You just can't bring up basic unlockables in the face of such features as Forge and Theatre. It's ridiculous.

Apparantly you can looking at the poll results. Maybe Halo isn't the best thing ever to happen to video games?

Of course after this I know your going to scream about how biased everyone is.

So what you're saying is, Halo 3 is not a more feature rich game because Brawl got more votes in the poll? This isn't my attempt to claim Halo as the best thing ever. All I'm saying is that Halo 3 clearly has more value to it than Brawl, and the poll should reflect that.

So you've played Brawl? No, so you can't assume Halo 3 has more features.

If Nintendo can't even incorporate voice chat, why should anyone assume Brawl will have incredible online functionality? It almost certainly will not.

Conversely, smash is an incredibly deep fighter which managed to survive a gen without online and still played to this day by a devout (albeit small) community of competitive players.

Throw in online, and you've got a game which can easily rival halo 3 in terms of replayabiliy.

Smash Bros Brawl because it's cheaper, and no doubt the online modes will allow for extensive gameplay, plus local multiplayer also adds to the value. The problem with a game like Halo 3 is that split screen ruins the multiplayer experience, where as in Smash Bros you get more enjoyment without having to split the screen. Depends on what you like, online shooters for me after a year or so lose their fun factor but I still play Smash Bros Melee often just because it is fun.

Despite your ignorance, online isn't everything. Melee is still played as much as Halo 2 if not more even though it doesn't have online. Even without any type of online at all, this game still has tons of replayability.

Sorry, but I have to disagree with you.

Not only has the Halo community deteriorated over the last 4 years (all I hear anymore are blabbing 2 year olds, or guys that swear every time they take a breath... or just whining), but the gameplay of Halo 3 has not changed significantly since Halo:CE (the best Halo game imo). Every character in Brawl gives different gameplay stratagies making for a game with limitless possibilities. Brawl has just as much replay value as Halo 3 has. More infact imo.

It's also not just Nintendo characters that make cameos any more.

Once again, your assuming things. You haven't played SSBB and there are still 50+ updates to be revealed. Lots of polls are subjective. Now we have the consensus that Smash brothers is more replayable than Halo according to most people.

I didn't even see this thread and I made one very similar in favor of Brawl.

So Brawl.

To people who put SSBB, you are foolish sheep. Halo 3 is better value even if its not as good. You are fanboys through and through i hope your wii's brake and your ds's get sat on by a fat chick.hongkingkong

Jesus, calm down. It's all a matter of taste. Personally, I'll play SSBB a lot longer than I'll play Halo 3. I'll probably listen to the music more than I play Halo 3. I LOVE TEH MUSIC! :)

That is a straight up lie. There is no way more people are playing splitscreen Melee right now as there are people playing Halo 2 online right now.

[QUOTE="kansasdude2009"]

[QUOTE="Gamer556"]This is a freaking joke. The poll isn't asking which game you like the best. It's asking which has the most value, and the answer is clearly Halo 3. It has Forge, saved films, 4 player co-op, incredible stat tracking, and the best matchmaking system in any game, ever. The only significant thing about SSB online is that it's SSB online. That's it. You may like the series better, but calling Brawl a more complete game is a bald-faced lie.Gamer556

SSB has more than 6 hours for single player... :|

not to mention I haven't gotten an upgrade in the smash series in 6 years... Halo on the other hand...

I can't imagine SSBB's single player game being of any substantial length. The real battle here is in online multiplayer, which Halo 3 wins by a mile.

Funny considering the singleplayer in Brawl is supposed to be over an hour for just one character, plus there is co-op and possibly even online co-op in the adventure mode which would also be a big addition.

Too bad Melee isn't even split screen. Thank you for proving that you've never played it.

We don't know everything about Brawl yet. From what I've read, it seems there's still quite a bit to the game that hasn't been revealed yet. And then there's the matter that we don't know the quantity of the modes and characters and stages.
