Nice score. Seriously though, the fact Willy's thread got no recognition from the mods, not even made a sticky for the amount of effort he put in (hell even halo has a sticky now) saddens me.

Anyway big props to Willy for his work.

Sorry, but as will soon be extremely evident, this isn't a year to stick to one console. Although if you want just one console this week, it looks like it's Wii time. ;)

From the 1up review, "Amazing as it is to say about a Wii game, Corruption contains some of the best visuals in gaming, period. It can't always mask the hardware's technical limitations (pixelation every time you're up close waiting for a door to open, for example), but in most cases the lighting, attention to detail, and wonderfully cohesive and imaginative art direction more than make up for the Wii's lack of raw horsepower. Put it this way: I found myself wandering through rooms two or three times just to look at them. How many games on any system can you say that about? "

so wait, the three current reveiws, !up, Nintendo Power, and IGN all average out to 9,5? thats pretty good.

10 + 9.5 + 9 /3 = 9.5 for the slower cows and lemmings who think im making this up. i cant wait for GS' reveiw. im guessing 9.5 because they loved the last 2 and i have heard this is the best one.

Can't really have an official sticky which those with 56k can't use.

I tell you what I'll compromise and unlock that thread and allow both threads to be used. No others however!

9.5 is an impressive score, from any site. I'm thinking it will get a 9.0 here.

After watching the new videos on IGN (in the review) and reading the review I'd be surprised if it didn't get a 9.0 here. Either way, I was wondering what GS might give it. After this I really don't care anymore, it looks amazing. :shock:

8.5 for me as well. I believe that if Bioshock only gets a 9.0 here, than metroid will get an 8.5. However, it looks to be the first got to have game for the Wii which is a great thing.

"Metroid Prime 3's new Wii-enhanced control scheme is so good and so responsive that by comparison the original title and its sequel feel clumsy. In fact, using the nunchuk's analog stick to control Samus through environments as you point the Wii remote to target with speed and accuracy obliterates just about every dual-analog control setup currently available."

"Corruption doesn't one-up a mouse and keyboard configuration, but it is easily the next best thing and certainly the ideal option for home console owners."

"Now, Metroid Prime 3: Corruption has re-invented the way the series is played, unarguably for the better."

"The artistry? We'd pit it against anything on the high-definition-ready consoles with confidence.
"

"Oftentimes, Wii gestures have a way of not working just as much as they work, which tends to create a gimmicky vibe, but thankfully this is not so in Corruption. By and large the gestures work extremely well and are in turn highly satisfying and immersive to perform."

"If you're thinking that the new Wii controls equate to a dumbed-down or shooter-emphasized Metroid experience, don't worry. Sure, you can more easily target and dispose of enemies while on the run, but you gain this benefit without any sacrifices. The bulk of Prime 3 is spent exploring and trying to discover how to reach specific points that you can see, as always. There are some spectacular environmental puzzles that make great use of the the morphball, of the screw attack and of the spiderball."

"Corruption runs about the same length as its predecessors, which is impressive. It took us in the neighborhood of 20 hours to complete the experience with a rating of 85% finished."

"You can choose to play the game in normal or veteran difficulty, and when you complete the quest you will unlock the gameplay-extending ultra-hard hyper difficulty, which considerably ramps up the challenge."

"You can take these medals to a special extras menu to purchase welcomed additions like a screenshot tool that enables you to snap in-game photos and send them to friends over WiiConnect24, a bobblehead for Aran's cockpit, new bumper stickers, or concept art and music."

"Metroid Prime 3: Corruption was originally set to launch with Wii, but the year-long delay has been very much worth the wait."


Haters am ****ing owned. High chance of GOTY. Really high. At least, imo. This + BioShock = Epic ****ing win

No if Jeff reviews it it'll get an 8.8.

Its impossible to get an 8.8. They give ratings with increments of .5. So it would get a 9.0 or 8.5.
