WOW! Once I got my copy and began playing for about 48 hours straight, I asked myself "What more does this game have to offer?" Brawl has all the gameplay mechanics that seemed to be missing from melee. It has so many new stages and characters. What makes the new stages so great is the interactions. When brawling a player will find themselves sliding down a mountain on an iceberg or shot at by the bomb-throwing towers in the hidden zelda stage. Each interaction between player and stage is related to the game it is based off of. In the Twilight Princess stage, the players are treated to an orc riding a buffalo (or whatever that thing is). The orc will throw the bomb onto the bridge and blow it up, which is what happens in Twilight Princess. Also, all of the new characters are fantastic. Each one uses moves that work and are completely perfect. I have to admit that I was worried about Sonic. II didn't think they could pull off that character, but I was wrong.

Since this game was so good, it is hard to pick out bad things about it. But here I go.

One thing that bothered me is the fact that the main enemy in the Subspace Emissary was a completely new character who was randomly thrown in. Throughout the adventure mode, you go around thinking it is going to be good guys versus bad guys. Making is extremely cliche, but as long as it is epic I wouldn't have a probably with it. But that's the problem. The adventure mode seemed to have characters thrown in randomly instead of having them play a part in the whole grand scheme. Characters like Sonic, Snake, ice climbers, lucario, olimar, wolf, toon link, and jigglypuff. This adventure mode would have been so much better if they gave it more of a kingdom hearts feel. If you could move your character to different worlds: a pokemon world, a starfox world, a zelda world, a mario world, a sonic world. As you travel to each place, you help characters and they decide to join your team. And instead of having a random bad guy showing up at the end, the bad guy will show up every once in a while at certain points in the game. Also, why isn't anyone talking. Players are only treated to an occasional "grunt" or "pika" but no full sentences at all.
I don't want you to think that I completely hated the adventure mode. It had great gameplay elements, but the story could have been improved.

The only other element to this game that I did not like was "break the targets." What happened to each character having a different stage for target practice? I really liked the fact that the 5 levels were un-lockable, but their was no effort at all to make them different for each character. This made completing them not fun and turned them into a chore. If they don't want to have a different stage for each character that is fine, but don't make it boring to play again and again. At least change the locations of the targets for each characters. But no, were just stuck with the same boring targets on the same boring stages.


One player mode can be fun, but it is no match compared to multi-player. When playing brawl nothing can be better than getting a few friends together and brawling together for a few hours, days, or weeks. So because the multi-player is so incredibly sweet. I am going to give this game a 10/10.

Thanks for reading.
