so christmas is on the horizon and we are all readin reviews bout which games to get off that fat guy in red. ive narrowed it down to 2 games, i think, and they are Super Smash Bros Melee or Eternal Darkness. Each genre suits me equally and id enjoy playing one as much as the other, but which one???

SSBM is a great game as we all know, but depends heavily on multiplayer.
And Eternal Darkness is a stunner of a game, but with no multiplayer.
Ive got 2 controllers and might be gettin one more this month.

So what do ye guys recon, SSBM or ED?

I say ED, as SSBM doesn't really appeal to me, but I never know until I've played something, so I might be wrong.

Both if you have the money, they are equally the best of their genre out so far.
I have them both since I bought SSBM when it came out on the 25th of May '02.

Naa! You can have either a 1 on 1 battle or a 2 on 2 battle with either a copmuter attacker on your side or your friend.

I have both and they are well worth buying, and if you want you can buy SSBM with Mario Party 4 and get 2 (yes 2) wavebird controllers free at TOYS'R'US ;
I saw it today at break (at work experience, not school) in the SUN.

I'll have to say SSBM as i've never played on ED before. This then means my opinion is worthless.

ED is not a FPS em up, it may have guns available at certain parts of the game but they are not usually the main weapon since there is a limited amount of ammo you can find during the game.
It is an adventure game since you can see your person moving around the screen, instead of through his/her eyes in a FPS.
