I am devastated. Also, I still find tripping (and the people who complain about it) to be extremely hilarious. I am very happy with all these modes. Not because I play them often, because I don't. They are what they are and they fill their roles quite nicely. And is there any other...

This is where the confusion lies: people assume because THEY like competitions where skill is rewarded, that must be what the word "competitive' means. It doesn't. There is more to it than that.

Opinions are great things to have. Different people like different things. I hazzard to guess, however, that more Smash fans find Brawl the more entertaining game. Certainly, just looking at Melee now actually makes my eyes bleed. Socialize about anything. Brawl is a fanatstic game for...

Phanna is my hero.

Tripping is awesome and hilarious. Yes, I went there. Subspace, Classic, Target Test, Training, Homerun Contest, Event Matches, and All Star Mode. Show me any figting game with as such a robust selection single player modes. Lies. Lies and slander. Browse SWF's stage finder or IGN's...

Okay, Nintendo's servers suck. Aside from that: Every. Single. Way.

Yes. Smash 4 is doomed to the same fate as Brawl: to be utterly awesome in every way.

Odd. I’ve gone to several tournaments over the years, and yet I remain “not competitive” by your infallible standards. Why am I not yet in the club? Oh, right. I forgot. It’s because I don’t share the same “competitive” ideals. Obviously everyone should and do have the freedom to play by...

That's the catch, isn't it? The "competitive" commuity gets to define things they like as "competitive" while games and people they don't like are dubbed "non-competitive." The defintion itself is arbitrary and open to change at a moments notice, depending on what what/whom people wish to...

Have you got something against Guitar Hero, Yuna? It's not my favorite game, but most people seem to enjoy it a lot. I was just throwing out the official defintion, just to clear up doubt that it is not limited to skill measurement. But let's think about that for a moment. Let's go through...

If you choose what games to play based solely on how popular they are, sure. Most people, however, play a certain videogame because they personally like it. com·pet·i·tive – adjective 1. of, pertaining to, involving, or decided by competition: competitive sports; a competitive...

Uhh... so what? Does geting better at a videogame accomplish anything? Answer: no. It's a videogame. And the only motivation to play it is the enjoyment you recieve from it. Right. I could totally see the military training soldier with Smash. No terrorist could withstand a good Falcon Punch...

Well, there isn't much incentive to go to tournaments or compete online unless you've spent time mastering such a technique. Which most people have not. You over exagerate. Brawl still requires skill to win, just less so than Melee. However, since videogames are only useful for the fun...

Yes, I am going to play Brawl competitively. EVERYONE does, if they engage in competitions of any kind. Which I do, almost every day with friends, family and online opponents. This sometimes, but not always, involves my participating in "real" tournaments where money is on the line. If...
