Character Tweaks [revamped first post!]

[Koopaul]

Infact, MvC2 has you thinking on your toes more so than any fighting game ever made with the notorious "one mistake can cost you an entire game"

See, one mistake implies that you HAVE to do something specific in order to win. From what I've experienced fighting games are direct head-to-head combat. Eventually you are going to learn what you need to do in order to win. You are going to know what to expect from each character and how to defeat them.

Smash Bros. frees things up. There's nothing you HAVE to do in order to win. You can try all sorts of thing that you couldn't in a traditional fighting game. You can have direct head-to-head combat, but you can also be sneaky. You can charge at full force, or you can have them chase you somewhere where they could die easier. There's all sorts of things you can experiment with.

Not to say there isn't all sorts of experimenting in other fighting games, but compared to Smash Bros. I think it's the best in that field.
