"I recently re-played Metroid: Other M for Wii. The game is…divisive to say the least. I personally don’t hate it nearly as much as some do. The game has its flaws to be sure, but the core of the game is not completely without merit. " Explosion.com
With Wo Long: Fallen Dynasty coming soon, it's time to look back at the developer's greatest triumphs...and one oddball favorite.
There is a decent fan base for the Nioh games, but still think they are criminally overlooked and under appreciated.
I just bought the PS5 collection to replay them again with all their DLC, a sweet collection for my games shelf for sure.
Yea, those gardens haven't been plowed in over 10 years now though. Imagine if they cultivated it, let it grow again.
originally it wasn't going to be included because of their take on Samus' character. But the gameplay's actually not bad.
Honestly, I don't know if we can even blame them for that take. Nintendo's Sakamoto was credited as the writer and from what we learned later with the Retro Studios interviews for the Prime series, Nintendo apparently never saw Samus as this stoic badass that most of the west imagined her as. Going as far as describing her as "motherly".
Former Nintendo of America president Reggie Fils-Aime reflects on Metroid: Other M and his initial high hopes for the game.
Yeah we all loved how you took a stoic badass and turned her into a whiny shrew. All those writers should be sacked.
VGChartz's Paul Broussard: "The early-mid 2000s saw something of a golden age for Metroid games. After an eight year hiatus, Metroid burst back onto the scene in dramatic fashion. Largely buoyed by the critical and financial success of Metroid Prime (at least, relative to other Metroid releases), Metroid saw a whopping six new titles between 2002 and 2007, as well as one rather bizarre pinball spin-off that wound up being much better than it had any right to be. Metroid had never been this popular before."
Never though the day would come where I say this but I’d be fine with having every 2D Metroid remade the way Dread plays.
Well, the first step is to release one, lol. Honestly though, just about any new Metroid game would excite me. Classic 2D Metroid was amazing, Metroid Other M had some great gameplay that with some added tweaks could be phenomenal, and Prime is, well...Prime. Metroid just has a fantastic legacy behind it.
Of course now that I said that they're going to announce the next big Metroid game for Wii U...Metroid Prime Pinball 2.
I just want another Metroid period
it needs to be in the style of prime...highly stylized with new gameplay mechanics and weapons and maybe even mirrors edge-esque platforming...and of course a great story....
i remember a while back their was a rumor of a starfox metroid crossover game...cmon that would print money...star fox air battles and metroid fp ground exploration = gold
metroid can learn a lot from demons souls/ dark souls/ batman arkham games.
