A challenge, but not overwhelming, fast action shoot and jump mission series.

User Rating: 9 | Metroid Fusion GBA
Showing more refinement than its predecessors, controls are much more agile, action faster, and complexity taken to the next level. Story is interesting but not at the forefront of most of the game time. Objectives and controls can be a little frustrating or disorienting at times, but with a little practice or trial and error, certainly achievable. Some enemy bosses give little clue on how to overcome, leaving victory to either revelation or just plain luck. In tune with Castlevania or Super Mario style games, the game has the classic arcade feel. Various abilities such as climbing, rolling and different armour suits give gamers the ability to adapt to many different situations. Excellent for the casual gamer or those insisting on playing through in a marathon gaming session. Frequent save points and maps are fairly easy to navigate. Well worth adding to the games collection.
