A long time we have been waiting and now the release is hopefully before. With Super Smash Bros. Brawl, the popular series of beatings Nintendo goes into the third round. Here are both old Smasher previous episodes are available as Mario, Bowser, Link, and Samus, but also many newcomers have come on board, such as the Pokémon trainer, Lucas, Pit (Kid Icarus) and King Dedede (Dedede). In addition, there are other secret fighters that need to be unlocked so that you can access 35 characters. With different levels of difficulty are both professionals and beginners to enjoy this game.
The scope of the game is incredible, in addition to the classic game mode, which has accompanied us since the N64 episode, there is again this time a story mode. And forming, in my opinion, the core of the game. Unlike SSB Melee, where only about 20 minutes. needed to achieve the goal, it is the story mode "Subspace Emissary" good 10 hours, either alone, or with a second player. It will gradually be unlocked on a world map the levels and also re-play of the levels is mandatory, unless you have not found the same secrets the first time through. A percentage display always tells you how much progress is made in Story mode. Also positive, to play not just a figure, but will change as the game progresses through the characters. Only when re-entering individual level, you can choose certain figures. Even that save between each level is great, which indeed was not in the previous game.
The multiplayer fights with friends for many but perhaps the real highlight of the game. With what felt like 70 different stages, in fact there are around 40, will not be bored. It goes to the Mushroom Kingdom, angel-country and of course to Hyrule. Popular Stages from Melee, are also in Brawl at the start and have in some cases only be unlocked. It's fun to come up with the most successful Nintendo heroes to fight among friends and this makes for a really good party atmosphere. For the first time even online battles are possible. Something negative that is driving in the multiplayer battles, however, but because it is a bit hectic at times and you often wonder why you lost again, the overview suffers many a time. As a benefit, the numerous appearing Items nothing.
With four different control options, the game is very flexible and each player can then take his preferred control dial. In addition to the remote cross-held, also Remote and Nunchuk, Classic Controller and the GameCube pad can be used as a controller. Very friendly player.
The music is beyond doubt: partly enjoy orchestral sounds or a sung pieces playing. In a music selection of over 200 titles from the extensive Nintendo World, you will be treated literally, and then want to do not want to miss this. It must be nice to old pieces of Mario or Zelda rearranged recognizes. Many well-known video game Sound Composer, including Nobuo Uematsu (Final Fantasy - Saga) have their own style with introduced and implemented well-known Nintendo tunes fantastic.
Other game modes as the target test, the event fights or Home Run Contest are also included again.
It is beyond the scope even more responsive to individual modes! Because there is still so much to discover, as demo games, the Stage Builder and so on.
In addition, just like in the predecessor, back trophies are found that contain a wealth of information. Also you should keep your eye out for CD's and stickers. With the CD's gets her new pieces of music that you are allowed to even compose themselves for Stages. Stickers have special attributes such as strength and endurance and give your fighters better skills, this is mainly the story mode is very important.
What more can I say? An absolute buy recommendation for the Wii game of the year !!!!
