So, I’ve heard a lot of debating about Halo 3 for the 360 and Super Smash Bros. Brawl for the Wii and which one is better; let’s take a quick analysis.
So yeah, I’ve had a lot of talk regarding these two killer apps for each console; or so everyone says. So much so, that I’ve decided to quickly write this outlining my views and where I stand on it.
Halo 3; the killer game which boasts being the most anticipated game for the last couple of years which is due to come out in just a few days time.
Super Smash Bros. Brawl; the third game in the series, highly anticipated by Nintendo fans alike since the GameCube version back years ago.
So what’s better? My opinion; neither. I’m bored of sequels, meaningless sequels in fact. Halo 3, boasts nothing more than plain shooting, chucking grenades, a generic storyline and a multi-player that bares a lot of resemblance to Halo 2. In my previous posts, I’ve mentioned I don’t really have any care for this game. Super Smash Bros. Brawl? Well, the first game was good, the second game was good…but seriously I can’t see how much further they can go with the series. I mean, won’t it just be like the GameCube version but with new characters and new maps? No thanks.
I really think neither are going to be better than each other, on absolutely any level. I’ve had enough of fan-boy talk between the two, and to be frank nobody’s right. They’re both sequels which apparently are meant to be killer apps; I’m not saying they’re not going to be; I’m just stating that I don’t see what’s the fuss about the two…
So what are your takes on this? What game will be better?

HALO 3 is way better….but ssbb is ok.
what was this written by a soccer mom?
halo 3 will obviously make better use of networking; maybe 32 players maximum (a freakin’ war) if by any chance that it doesn’t, then at least it still has the halo name in it. Is it the same? heck no. so long as the cheats and glitches are neutralized.
smash bros. brawl already has some new features, the only thing that would make it a real halo killer (besides what was implied above) if it would allow more than 4 players (much like the last game, only always)or have local lan available for multiple systems that aren’t online. and again, so long as the glitches are neutralized, (kill the wave-dashing, automated BS.)
halo w/o glitches= awesome its like a real game. its not as bad so long as you don’t go online or you cheat.
smash bros. like it was 5 years ago= awesome its like a real game, but its not as bad now.
“I’ve had enough of fan-boy talk between the two”
Don’t be such a hypocrite if you’ve truly “had enough of fan-boy talk” then why would you keep consistantly bringing up fanboy topics like these?
No need to answer, it’s a rhetorical question.
Just get em both for crying out loud everyone. If you have only a 360 get halo 3, if you only have a Wii get SSBB, and if you have both get em both. Each game has its own unique features and content so try them both to get different experiences. I am amazed how people can argue about games like its politics or something!
JIGGLEPUFF FTW!!!! nough’ said
i owned halo1 and ssbm and i can see why melee sold more copies. its not only the most fun ive ever had on a game but offers a good grown up fighting game. if you see pikachu and think its just for kiddies, wow are you mising out.
melee was the best sellinggame on cube and outsold halo1, i dont think with the improvments of wifi, more characters and improved single player that halo3 can sell as many copies. more people own a Wii and this will be the reason to buy one (that and starwars).
if you have really owned both and arnt just a 360 fanboy who thinks melee was called brawl or is just for kids then you will realise the true greatness that is super smash bros
How is jigglepuff meant to be an arguement, actually she has one of the strongest moves in the two previous games. And actually is a good fighter (one of my 5 choices anyway) So, you should re-think that arguement because, well…. it’s pretty lame!
Smash Bros. is WAY better
Both great games. Nothing alike. Who came up with this article?? Halo 3 vs. Metriod 3 now that is a headline and something to talk about!
I swear a lot of you guys are retards. Like that guy listing 3 things that Halo has that Smash doesn’t, some of which were not true, and I could easily write more things Smash has that Halo doesn’t.
Brawl is going to sell more and be a whole lot more popular everywhere, not just the U.S.
And wavedashing isn’t a glitch, so a lot of you retards need to get your facts straight.
