Release Date: December of 2001
ESRB Rating: Teen! That's right, this is the so far ONLY teen rated game that features Mario.
Background: It's time again! Everyone's back for another round of beating in Melee! This time the originals are joined by Zelda/Sheik, Link, Mewtwo, Pichu, Peach, Bowser, and many others. Everything is revamped with new features and items. And even all the other Pokemon from Gold and Silver are here to help!
Scoring Note: This game is rated on a scale of 10.
Graphics: 10
Oh my, they're great! Super Mario 64 is NOTHING compared to these. Bowser looks like he has scales, Mario's overalls look real, Fox's fur looks real enough to touch. But they also did a great job on making what looks like pain on the fighters face, especially when you pause it. Once when Sheik was flying away, Bowser was on the ground panting.
Music: 10
Original music city! I liked what they did with the Mushroom Kingdom theme, and I love the Pokemon music.
Secrets: 10
There's secret characters and levels. Plus some of the rumors are true, like the doomship-like level. AND the Koopalings are mentioned in the Bowser Trophy, yay!!!
Difficulty: 8
Hard, very, very hard game. You get used to it quickly, but the challenges keep getting harder all the time...
Replayability: 10
You'll always wanna play this. Plus it could help kill time for those who really want the new DBZ game which comes out in a few months. Well, it's working for me anyway...
Fun Factor!: 10
It's hard yet fun! I like the challenges and all the other stuff and unlocking new characters.
Recommendation: If you're old enough
and like these kinds of games and actually have the Cube, GET IT!!! If
not... I pity you...
