Title: Project: M Demo 2

Pretty awesome shit just came out. For those of you unaware, Project M is an attempt to put Melee's physics into Brawl.  Basically what anybody would have wanted for Melee 2. The physics are extremely on par with Melee, and it feels like I'm playing a sexier Melee. All you need is Brawl and an SD card.

They've also added in a handful of Brawl characters and rebalanced some of the lower tier Melee characters to make them more viable (Ness has is Dair from SSB64(!!!)) Shit ton of stages as well. The best ones from Melee, Brawl, and even Hyrule Castle(!!!) and Saffron City from SSB64. I would highly recommend checking it out if you like Melee at all.

Really easy to install. Download the .exe installer from their downloads page and depending on your Wii's status (hacked, unhacked, size of SD card) you select a different install options. That's right, you don't need a hacked Wii in order to enjoy Project M.

Here's the official website: http://projectm.dantarion.com/index.php

I've had a great time with it so far, but I haven't really tested it with my friends yet. I'm excited to take it to Melee club tomorrow and see how everyone likes it.

Can't wait for Dr. Mario to be added.

What's the difference between Ness' down air? It's pretty strong in Brawl, I forget how it was in Melee

I'm not familiar with his moveset in Brawl, but it changes from his Melee attack. It comes out way faster now, making it a lot more useful in a lot more situations.

It is a demo still. They want to add more characters, although they are having trouble getting Melee characters that didn't exist in Brawl in.

>taking characters out

What do you mean? Like I said it is a demo. They can't just convert every single character immediately. They fact that they're rebalancing lower tiers is fucking awesome and takes a lot of work.

I couldn't help but notice that there's stock match set up with four four lives.

I usually play with three lives. Four is such a weird number.

Standard for mbr ruleset. They really catered it to the competitive scene, which is cool. Not saying that 3 stock isn't viable or anything though

someone should install this and play online with me
it's so fun :(

seriously not just being a meleefag or anything but this demo basically holds up as a stand-alone smash bros game in the sense that it has new mechanics, new characters, new stages, and rebalanced older characters

COME ON GUYS IT'S SO GOOD

I really didn't like it; the characters seemed to drop too quickly.

That's Melee for yah. I can see that being an annoyance if you're used to Brawl. (again not to be a meleefag, but) Give it some time and I bet the fast falling will grow on you. Makes comboing much more possible than when everybody is floaty, which is awesome.

I've played Melee more than Brawl; the characters don't drop that fast.

I've played Melee more than you have; yes they do
If anything I'd argue that they're slower in Project: M.

[spoiler]obviously hbox wins because he's easily the best in NA and puff hasn't changed much from melee to project m but it is still awesome watching him in a new game fighting ike [/spoiler]

but honestly i know that it is a mod but in it's full version i guarantee that it will be getting more attention than smash 4
you dont even need to mod your wii

Smash 4 as in the officially nintendo sponsored 4th entry into the series? Not a chance unless you just mean in the hyper competitive scene

i still think its funny that people think smash should be played at actual fighting game tourneys. It is NOT a good game for that kind of high stakes play. its too random, even with items off.

you're basically just asking for an argument with strongbad here

well, before he starts, thats just my opinion. so, ignore it if you must.
the only reason i say that, is because my friends ruined competitive Smash for me, so thats why i think that.

you're just flat out wrong
but i everything i would say has already been said so whatever

but i just want to hype up project m since it is so fucking solid that it could easily be a standalone game in the series and i wish that people outside of the competitive scene could realize that and enjoy it the same way that they enjoy the other games

I am wrong. sorry. I didnt type exactly what i meant. like i said earlier, my friends just ruined it for me.
but i still love smash a great deal, and i do have that project m demo and enjoy it quite a bit.
