Shouldn't they just convert to the NTSC system? That way, it will be easier to have stuff from America AND Europe.

There's gotta be at least one typed up version of the Nintendo Power reveiw on the internet. Can you link to it if you can find one?

Looks like a lot of Metroid Prime 3 threads have been popping up lately. Time to get this thread back into action.

Updated with a picture of the demo from REVOLUTIONfreak, and the new videos.

The thing is that the release date for MP3 in Europe is substantially later (November, I think) so the hype train hasn't started here yet. Once we get closer to our release I think that we'll get the preview on our Wiis as well. And the main problem causing the delays isn't really the PAL->NTSC conversion, but the fact that a bunch of countries seem to need translations. LEARN ENGLISH!

Was there an official hype thread? I can't remember posting in one.

Anyway, my guess is that GS gives it 8.5/10. Looks good.

That can't be good. Two days ain't good enough to get votes from the people. The result was AAA, but I didn't even get to post in it. I wasn't even aware of it's existance! WE NEED MORE TIME!!!!!

But either way, it looks like it been hyped AAA here too, so whatever. I hyped it AA.

That Spin magazine review is probably three weeks old, and since the retail version of the game was only just released into the media (aside from NP), I deem that a bad review. Spin Magazine?

BTW Willy, GamesRadar took down the videos of "Metroid Prime 3: The First Hour". I'm guessing they did so, because of Nintendo's request.

the graphics is a big let down. But I'm hoping it gets 9+ at GS so I would consider it.

Most magazines reviews are. That's the fault with magazines. That's why we use websites!

Ha Ha, instead of talking about Metroid Prime 3, they are talking about how good the OP looks, TC.

BTW, I saw a Metroid Prime 3 ad this morning. It was a banner on the internets.

Achievmant like system? That sounds pretty cool. Looks like Metroid just gained a ton more replayability. Although I hope it isn't marked down in the score for feeling "tacked on"

Yeah, people have their games mixed up.

Both will be great, but Corruption will be better than Brawl and its added characters, however welcome they are. Halo 3? meh
