Horrid gameplay, frustrating, immensly difficult, you have no idea whats going on.

General Comments

Metroid Prime..... this game was supposed to be great. Most magazines say it is, though! Well, to them, the 'hardcore gamers who buy every system and game the second it came out', maybe it is. But to the casual gamer who is looking for fun and a nice way to pass the time, this game is definitely not it. Yeah, the graphics are great, so what? The idea is cool.... but brought down by the horrid gameplay and frustratingly hard levels. Also, unless you've played every Metroid game out there, you'll have no idea whats going on. This was my first one. I rented it to try it out because I heard it got good ratings. But, boy, was I wrong. It stunk. So, unless you're a hardcore Metroid nut, don't bother with this one.

    Thats completely untrue, this has to be one of the most absorbing and brilliant games nintendo have produced in the last decade. I'd never played a metroid game before this and i was still stunned by it. I just can't agree with what your saying.

    Yeah, it's all about opinion. Personally, I hate Nintendo. Their games are too hard for an average gamer! The old ones are all just running across a screen for a bit, which is fun, then you get to a hard part, and I just don't feel like continuing, cause nothing is gonna happen... I just don't like Nintendo's games...

    Yeah, you're right. Sorry I was heated, I just love that game with a passion.
