Metroid Prime: Federation Force Review | GameCloud

Patrick Waring at GameCloud writes: "The best praise that I can give to Metroid Prime Federation Force is that I didn’t hate it and, in fact, wanted to like it a lot more than I did. It really refined the controls of a DS designed FPS, brought a lot of neat, unique ideas into the mix and did its best to make everything cohesive with the existing Prime canon. The choice to design the game in such a way that more than one player is absolutely necessary to pass the game, however, was not a great one, especially given the platform that it’s on. The childish aesthetic also didn’t help things, despite managing to fit in a lot of classic Metroid throwbacks. The idea and concept are solid though and, honestly, I’d like to see more of this series – just not on the 3DS. Oh, and as an aside: Blastball kind of blows."
