Of course playing with friends prevents the extreme lag and also taunt parties, but the fun of battling people you don't know, that may or may not have better skills then you is a real thrill. I've come to ask the simple question: where has it all gone? Only about a year ago the game was perfectly active, well, at least on Nintendo wifi. Perhaps it is because of the new upcoming version. But, I'd think that much like Animal Crossing, gamers would still want a full-screen appearance. What do you think? Edited by Monaco, Jan 1 2013, 01:47 PM.

Erm, uh, define a lot because not really. They're kinda alike, but the game didn't really sell well.

In fact I've actually grown a pretty intense hatred for fighters in general nowadays, so I'm getting rid of all of the ones I own. Smash Bros included.

Erm, uh, define a lot because not really. They're kinda alike, but the game didn't really sell well. A lot =/= all of them. I can believe that. I'm playing it right now myself and it's my brawler of choice at the moment. Brawl was pretty good back in the day, but without friends to play it with I find myself lacking the motivation to put the disk in. And when I do play some with my friends in person, we usually stop after a few rounds and that's it. So yeah. Pretty much its oldness and what Ktim said.

Il Piantissimo Posts: 3,320 Group: Former Monarchs Member #9,741 Joined: February 7, 2009 Gender: Male Nintendo ID: Piantab	The game came out in 2008. For me, I got bored with it. Online multiplayer was laggy as hell. There's a new one coming up so I'm guessing people are also waiting for that.

Weekends are when people are on the most as far as online goes (with the exception of CoD). That certain weekend, before Christmas, I actually had to go online to see if someone wanted to play. Norm Macdonald once said, and I quote "ridiculous". It's funny because Killzone 2 multiplayer is still somewhat booming on weekends. Go fig.
