Thats my site!!! errr. Do you have a hacked psp or are you a lurker?
Yes, this was pretty badass but Dashizwiz's comeback gave me a huge boner...only beause like M2K is the best in the world and such...and he almost choked hardcore.
Yes, it is the ultimate game...but no...if Gizmo is on his game and his Falco is not sucking....he will ****.
That post actually just made me think of something
What do all of the following games have in common?
Smash64
Melee
Tekken
Street Fighter
Soul Calibur/Blade
Mortal Kombat
Virtua Fighter
Guilty Gear
?
All of these games are competitive fighting games...all of which have camping...the thing is though Melee is the one and only game that breaks the defensive advantage that exists in all the other titles by means of the overall pace of the game, l cancelling, and the fact that combos arent beyond infinite and broken (smash 64)
YES, there IS camping in Melee but IT CAN BE STOPPED. Due to the speed of Melee if a camper is stopped and is killed....the momentum changes quickly due to the overall speed of the game as compared to the rest of the other games which are MUCH SLOWER PACE than Melee. The other games rely on patience to win for the most part. In Melee, its the same idea.. and regaining momentum back in a match is much easier than getting momentum back in Melee. Melee is more of an aggressive patience meaning, if you get too close to your opponent while dash dancing or wavedashing while "camping" you can or will be punished. An example could be the match that Thumbswayup just posted or the final match of Dashizwiz VS Falco....or Ken Vs Bombsoldier....Did you notice how quickly the match just flipped around with DJ Combo VS Eggz? All it took was a couple of shines and the momentum flippped aorund just like that. Doing something like that in a game like Mortal Kombat, Street Figther, or Soul Calibur is much more rare. Once again, it CAN BE DONE...I cant deny that fact...but the fact of the matter is.....Melee is much more exciting and requires the player to truly be on top of his game at all times.
Basically, Melee is the ideal perfect fighting game. Not only is it the fighting game out there that takes the most skill to play but it also has an EXTREMELY friendly fanbase behind it as well.
Now, lets take a look at Brawl for instance-People get mad while playing Brawl ALL the time. People get pissed off over matches they should not have lossed....does this ever happen in Melee at tourneys? Hardly. Nine times out of ten if a person lost a match...it was their own fault and was not due to lag, tripping, toadstool jumps, or some other dumb Brawl crap that makes no sense. Out of all the Melee tournies I've attended I've neveer in my life seen a player get really pissed off over a Melee match. However, for Brawl i've seen Solid Jake, Vigilante, and a Pit player I played at DM get extremely pist off. I myself have gotten pissed off in online tournies, and in person VS Nana.
I Love Melee.
