Super Smash Bros. Melee is a fun, fast-paced action/(4 player) fighting game with wonderous graphics. If, no WHEN, your'e going to get this game, get a memory card-you'll need it.

This is a great game for anyone who loves fast action and great graphics. Its just like the first but with twice as many characters. Its also good for multiplayer.

It's good, but it needs work.

Maybe I'd give it a 2.7, it's not much fun unless you have 3 other people around who are going to play with you, I consider it a Party Title only.
Smash Bros. Melee is a lot of fun. Some things need work, like the difficulty, often they just have an insane player block 80 percent of your moves and you can't stop them. The Hand Boss has moves that are almost totally unavoidable, and that is so annoyingly CHEAP! That's when the game feels clunky and dull, like the moves are too useless to perform or like all your effort in battle is for naught, I just want a realistic chance to win (and not to wreck the controller trying). Maybe the character animation is too far away to see what's going on as you should always be able to. They should have many challenging (but not too hard) levels leading up to the impossible stuff. Also, they should have brought in NEW characters for the Gamecube version, I know we have a Picachu ripoff, but I mean characters like Walugi or Koopa Troopa or maybe one of the Zombies from RE? Sonic and Tails were a rumor, that would be very cool, too. I don't care much for the few new modes, like baseball batting (yawn) - destroying targets is great fun, but there's just 1 level per character. The levels are really nice, but plain, you can't really move around. There's not as much FMV or audio samples as you'd expect of a minidisc. The camera shots take up too much memory card space to be very practical. I didn't even care to finish this game, though I bought it, it never really engaged me much, I think replayability is limited, it will take time to finish, if you do, you'll feel great and you may think you like it more then, but I doubt you'll try most areas ever again. It's almost impossible for young kids!! The running ability is sort of hit-and-miss. When all is said and done, in spite of graphics and modes, it's still sort of a one-note fighting game, it worked on N64 (which I preferred), but I expect more of GameCube. I'm left wondering the different ways they could have made this feel fresh and fun.

I definitely think that it would be unfair to give this masterpiece anything but five stars. The amount of options and replayability is just amazing.

First, I'll start with the downfalls, which should be quick.

-The music in some arenas (Ness) is annoying.
-The Z button is very inconvienient for throwing.
-The tournament mode does not have enough options (double-elimination would have been nice).

Everything else in this game is WAY above par. The graphics are above-average and very fluid. The stages, characters, game modes, items, and bonus games are abundant. The control for this game, with the exception of the Z button, is extremely great. Once you get used to the control scheme, it becomes very easy to control. The addition of the mid-air dodge adds quite a bit to gameplay as well.

The bonus games could practically be a game in themselves. The homerun competition is quite fun, and I also enjoy getting fast times for the bonus target game. The multi-man melee also adds a challenge as well as longevity to the single-player experience. However, the event mode is the cherry on the top of this excellent game. The event mode offers abundant challenges, and also gives the player a chance to unlock new secrets.

All in all, I am suprised anyone would give this game less than five stars. The game improves a large amount over the previous Smash Brothers, and offers a slew of new additions and game experiences. A reccommended buy for any gamer.

Overrated : Yes , Bad : No

Super snash bros is fun , but sometimes a human player can be very cheap. SOme times it feels more like a race to a hammer or pokeball than a fighting game. And if you double jump and get hit you'll die .

Pros:
Fun
long live 2-d

Cons:
Cheap
Race

Overall:
Worth the hype:Maybe , worth the price : maybe

Score 6.75

Smaash Bros Are Coollio

I couldn't stop playing to original SSB, but now there's going to be one for the NINTENDO GAMECUBE! SO what I'm pretty much saying is, you can't lose buying this game, it is going to rock.

4.5 stars.

This is a good game. I like the special melee the most. Pick it up now.

(P.S If you are a Sonic fan, either or not, It still good. I'm a die-hard hardcore Sonic game and I still love it. (...)!!!!!!!!. By the way, you can unlock Sonic + Tails in this game. Go to Stadium. Choose Multiman Melee. Then Choose cruel melee. Get a high score (Not total high score) of 20 kos with any character. Then you fight Sonic + Tails against you. They are teamed up. I didn't get it yet, but I'm trying. PP.S. This review is continued by the one-star review of "help me!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" If you still have trouble, I'll post another review every month. I might paste another one when Sonic riders (Feb. 21) is released. Like I said, If you are a sonic fan, This game is still Awesume)
