My Friends

27Aug 07
Metroid Prime 3: Corruption
Awards:
-Great Sequel
-Sharp Control

The Bad:
-Some of the contextual actions don't control all that well
-Streamlined controls make things a little too easy and a little less adventurous

GameSpot on Dialogue in Wii Games:
"Voice is used too sparingly" [Super Paper Mario]

"in this day and age, for a game whose story is as much a factor as this one's is, it should have all been spoken." [Twilight Princess]

"The voice acting is fine, though its presence does reinforce just how effective the ghostly silence was in the first two Prime games." [Metroid Prime 3: Corruption]

It all makes perfect sense! I'm so lucky to be able to read GameSpot reviews

And so does this:
Super Metroid - 8.5

The Good
* Loads of weapons and armor to collect, and plenty of aliens to shoot at * Colorful 16-bit graphics and somber music convey a spooky atmosphere
* The smooth pacing means you're always collecting new items or facing new enemies
* You'll feel compelled to play again after you've beaten it.

The Bad
* Nintendo waited 13 years to let us play Super Metroid again.

But guess what? Nailed the Metroid Prime 3: Corruption review 9 months ago! My predictions list had it at 8.6, and under the new review system, that rounds out to 8.5

Oh, and I played that final game in my Rybka match.

    Gamespot. Really if it weren't for the forumers I know and love (and hate) I wouldn't even come to this dump.

    So according to gamespot: Super Metroid = Metroid Prime 3
    I couldn't agree more, with you on this gamespot has gone down hill.

    I've been pretty content with GS' reviews so far, although you do prove a point .

    I'm convinced that Gamespot reviewers are either schizophrenic or have alztheimers and never look back over past reviews they've written.
