Half of the mentioned games are average. Mario Super Sluggers? MySims? Come on. Let's not fool ourselves.

All of them are amazing games but Brawl really gathered what was great about the two first games and then it added its own specialty. The game is more than a game its a platform.

People who say Melee was better are crazy. They complain about Nintendo not keeping in certain glitches. That is not true though, Nintendo actually kept those glitches in just in a way thatisnot spammable cheap. Brawl is much more balanced in terms of characters (except Lucas and Ness).

Balanced? Meta Knight in Brawl is a lot cheaper than Fox in Melee. And it's hard to even land an attack with Captain Falcon in Brawl (Mewtwo seemed a little "less bad" in Melee). I'm glad they removed the glitches though (wavedashing gets old quickly), although Melee's stages were so much better. I can't really decide which is better. I definitely win more in Brawl since I main MK (I mained Kirby in Melee):)

I've only played Okami and Viewtiful Joe 2, and I'd say that Okami is probably one of my favorite games of all time. The size of the game is just great, keeps on going far longer than most other games. For all the comparisons to Zelda, that game just doesn't compare to Okami's amazing music and artstyle. The story is pretty interesting too. It just makes you want to lose yourself in its world like few other games do. VJ2 was entertaining, but I didn't finish it because I got stuck near the end. Definitely not the same caliber as Okami. It's just too bad there most likely won't be a sequel.
