Super Smash Brothers Melee

[civman2]

best.
game.
ever.

[spree4567]

agreed.

[Xenn]

Real good but not best ever. That spot is reserved for ff7 :)

[Chruser]

FF3 is better. :o

[tacoX]

I go for Chrono Cross =), although it is the greatest melee multiplayer game ever (-Diablo II)

[Chruser]

Chrono CROSS?
Well, you're right, it's okay, but NO WAY it beats FF3.

[tacoX]

I dont go for FF3, prolly b/c I never played :D ...

[Chruser]

You should listen to the FF3 theme song, Awakening. Just do it!

[GameCube]

A little off topic are we?

[Chruser]

Hey, FF3 is a Nintendo game atleast ;)

Either way, I should try that mortal kombat wannabe game sometime, since you seem to like it so much :P

[GameCube]

ssbm is a great game. best mp game currently out.

[Chruser]

Best MP game for GC, I assume?

[GameCube]

i agree. Sonic and 007 are good too.

[FuRy]

I can't wait until Soul Calibur 2 comes out for Gamecube......

[GameCube]

what does that have to do with Melee?

[Chruser]

Sonic = Sonic the Hedgehog?

[GameCube]

yes, but Sonic is NOT in SSBM.

[FuRy]

People say there is a way to unlock them, by beating 20 wire frames in cruel melee....first of all, thats impossible b/c you get killed in like 3 hits...and its total bullcrap.......

[GameCube]

really...people say u can get Sonic and Tails in the game, but theyre WRONG! That would be cool though...

[FuRy]

the Sonic thing was an April Fool's Joke in Electronic Gaming Monthly...

[GameCube]

yea, lol.....

[blood knight]

SSBM is awesome and excelent reply value,, ive played it and beaten it over and over again trying to get all the secret characters,, btw if u get it try out the game function cruel malee if u can beat 20 of them you unlock sonic and tails,, good luck i still cant beat 5 of them =P

[GameCube]

no you cant! that is just a rumor!

[Raziel]

EGM posted that rumor? They ALWAYS do that. I remember them saying something about being able to play as Akuma in RE2 a few years back. April Fools. What an evil holiday.

[Raziel]

Oh, and Shiek is the best SSBM character. Hands down!

[GameCube]

no, kirby

[blood knight]

Nah young link is =P

[GameCube]

young link's ok; hes better than link

[Raziel]

Sheik's nice because her attacks have almost no recovery time between them, and she's fairly strong. Not only that, but she moves rather quickly, but isn't a pain in the ass to control like Capt. Falcon or Fox. I've come to like Young Link a lot too. I used to really like Ganondorf, but he's just too slow for my tastes now.

[GameCube]

kirby's cool b/c he can fly

[Raziel]

He just doesn't pack enough punch for my tastes. It's hard to kill him, but it's also hard to kill anyone else WITH him. In my opinion.

[GameCube]

no its not; i beat my friends all the time with him

[Raziel]

Like I said, "he doesn't pack enough punch for my taste". I just don't like using him.

[BlueCube]

Hey, I like Pikachu myself. Except for that new headbutt move (over and B)... in the original SMB, that didn't exist.

And I have EGM.. they showed a bunch of screenshots that looked pretty real, but in one, it showed the "You unlocked Sonic and Tails" screen (or something similar) and the date was 4-1-2002... and since I subscribe, I got mine in mid-March. That pretty much gives it away as a joke.

And I can only get up to 11 wire frames...

[Raziel]

Pikachu was actually my favorite from the first one. I'm not so big on him anymore mainly because all my friends started using him and figured out how to kick my ass with my own best character!

[www.com]

Super smash bro's... is simply, AMAZING!!! I love home running people with the bat. Starfox is my Favorite person to use in it, i have mastered it with Fox ^_^

[GameCube]

he's ok, but kirby's better.

[mightychicken]

SSBM is the best game out for GC in my opinion.

absolutly

either that or Sonic Adventure 2 Battle.

[FuRy]

Link is way better than Young Link...better damage and range...

[Raziel]

I completely forgot about Fox! He's probably my second favorite character. He was almost useless in the first one, but so much better in Melee!

[GameCube]

whos ur favorite then?

[Raziel]

Definitely Sheik. Her regular physical attacks are twice as good as her special moves, and she has almost no recovery time between attacks. She's a total badass. Second favorite would be Fox, third would have to be Link. I also really like Mr. Game and Watch. It's humiliating to be beaten by him.

[GameCube]

shiek's pretty good

[Raziel]

Who do you use aside from Kirby?

[www.com]

Why does everyone like Kirby so much, I really didn't enjoy playing as kirby.. Maybe i haven't learned how to unleash his power yet. I bet once you master him, he's pretty badass.

[Mr.Lee]

master his power then he rules

[GameCube]

agreed, he rules

[HellSlayer]

I had this game for a long time. Its a pretty fun game. If you have never tryed it you should rent it. I did not like it at first bcause I only had one controller. But its only a fun game if you have two or more controllers. If anyone likes this game post why u like it.

[Jamesadin]

It never gets old.

[quikspy67]

yeah i agree its hours of fun mostly when there 4 people playing

[Satoshi]

When there are 3+ ppl play this game is the best!! I love the moves. I love mastering new characters. My best character is Roy as of right now but Im getting better with Fox and Mario.

[quikspy67]

ya my favorite is Roy also

[BlueCube]

It only gets old when you've got new games! But once those are done, I always go back to SSBM..

[quikspy67]

i usally play it when i have friends over

[HellSlayer]

Roy is so cheap. All his moves kick the other person of the screen.

[quikspy67]

no they don't

[Alpha_omega]

I rule with falco only been beaten once while i was falco...
The game never gets old because its just a great game with al the different modes and all the trophies and that sort of things

[Jamesadin]

I play as Roy and Fox...im getting quite good with Fox though..

[HellSlayer]

My fav is prilly Kirby. I will always use him to play super smash bros.

[JohnnyTAE]

Best games too play IMO when you have friends over
SSBM, Goldeneye/perfect dark. That is best of all times not really considering the newer games. Tekken tag and VF4 is also very good.

[Tai]

I personally use samus or link.

[GameCube]

Roy is so cheap. All his moves kick the other person of the screen.
yea, i agree. roy is cheap as hell. all his attacks to 25% or more and they all knock u off the screen in two hits.

[quikspy67]

i like his combos

[Jamesadin]

Me too actually.

[quikspy67]

yay someone who doesn't roy is cheap. Personaly i think captin falcon is the cheapest

[sir.dennis]

well i dont think captain falcon is cheap.......possibly u just dont know how to beat him yet. :Postal: :nerd:

[Gladius]

I dont own the game but when i play the game at someones house i really dont give a damn.

[quikspy67]

ok ok i get you're point

[Makenshi]

Personally i like Yoshi

[Jamesadin]

I thought Yoshi was better in the first SSB, but I guess it is anyones opinion.

[Medieval Bob]

Yoshi was a bit unbalanced in the first SSB if utilized correctly. His swallow/spit the person out in an egg move was horribly unfair if the user was skilled with it.

I, personally, have always been a fan of Mario. I liked him better in the first SSB, because I could beat anybody I know 1 (me) on 3 (the challenger & 2 lvl-9 computer players) and almost always 1 (me) on 2 (both humans) fights. In the SSB for 'Cube, I don't like his cape attack -- it is wholly gay.

Ness isn't as good on the new one either. Hopefully, the new SSB will be playable online. I'll have to pwn up on some of you Zelaronies. Next to Killer Instinct Gold, SSB (the 64 version) is my best opportunity to show off my skills. I don't have the 'Cube game, but a friend of mine does, and I get some playtime whenever I borrow it. I'll have to buy the new one fer sure.

[quikspy67]

on the first one i like pikachu

[NonGayMan]

*THREADS MERGED*

[Raziel]

Roy has always been one of the easiest characters to beat, in my experience. Shiek and Yoshi are the two most unfairly balanced characters in the game. I'm not even gonna go into how lame a character Shiek is. It would take too damn long. But Yoshi I will explain.

First off, his damned smash attacks. His up and down attacks are ridiculous. He bends so far back during the charge for his up attack that it is impossible to hit him from above. His down attack stretches so far to his left and right that it is nearly impossible to roll around. Then there's his "butt-stomp" move that shoots those damned stars a full two character lengths from his sides. Why should his "butt-stomp" move have such a massive area of effect, and do so much damage, when Bowser's exact same move does a little less damage and doesn't have nearly as wide of a damage zone? Absolutely ridiculous.

[quikspy67]

We'll I don't care I still use Roy because I'm good with him.
