I kinda like Other M but always felt like it was missing that spark the Prime games brought

Federation Force will have to be poop in a box to be worse than this.

TheMutator3321d ago (Edited 3321d ago )

Beside the story of Other M,the gameplay,music,graphics,stages are excellent.

rjason123321d ago

Exactly, I don't even mind the story, except for a few parts, I thought the game was great!

Concertoine3321d ago

Agreed on all but music, the music was crap. Aside from remixes of old metroid tunes it had the most generic music ive ever heard in a nintendo game.

Segata3321d ago

Really liked the game but felt it needed some better art direction.

Metallox3321d ago

I think it's horrible and a disgrace in Nintendo's history.

Nioh games definitely up there at the top alongside Ninja Gaiden BLK.

LoveSpuds847d ago

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.

Starman69847d ago

Amazing what ya can do with a samurai sword lol 🤣

tehpees3847d ago

The honourable mention though.

TheSenorCheese847d ago

originally it wasn't going to be included because of their take on Samus' character. But the gameplay's actually not bad.

Vits846d ago

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".

Ninja Gaiden was dope but I don't really care for alot of their games.

Well it almost killed Metroid so…

PhillyDillyDee1092d ago

Yeah we all loved how you took a stoic badass and turned her into a whiny shrew. All those writers should be sacked.

H91092d ago

I mean it was a killer

Terry_B1092d ago

Sometimes, I doubt that Reggie was that great for Nintendo after all.

2D Metroid Retrospective: Bring on the Remakes

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.

INMATEofARKHAM1311d ago

I just want them all in the Switch.
