This is my review of the MP2 box.
Initially the box is a standard affair, black rectangle, opens like a book, has a thingy inside to clip the disc on etc. But the similarities stop [roughly] there. Cast a quick eye across the front of the box and you'll notice something; this box is different, this box is new, this box is the future, this box is EXTREME TO THE MAX!!
Why so amazing? It's holographic! The front features a large picture of Samus looking awesome, with a big faded-into-the-background picture of a Chozo. The background is all shiny, as is the game title and logo. The back holds yet further treats; pictures of two new aliens, some screenshots and even more awesome holographic shinyness. Also while looking at it from any number of different angles, you can witness stunning blanketed rainbows eminating from the silky surface.
In summary then:
Strengths
- Holographic!
- Shiny!
- Awesome 'new box' smell
- Easy to remove wrapping
- Fantastic artwork
- Rainbows!!!!
- Writing on back in English and French (Canadian box)
- SHINY SHINY SHINY!!!
Weaknesses
NONE!
I give this box 10/10.
umm..review of the game like, later or something...whatever.

There are 4, so no. but the Dark world really counts a fifth.
Yeh I know.
Dark Aether gives me the creeps. Although it's kinda annoying instead of a new area it's just the places I've been before but re-jigged. There's no less new areas overall compared to the original is there?

REALLY good.
When I pick I tend to put a smiley at the end, knowing what I'm doing.

That has to be *the* most hypocritical thing you've ever said :P
And if the mods don't like it they can edit my messages.

Metroid Prime 2 is a really god game
Bloody HELL! I'm just trying to stop you all from getting warned.
Why do you just pick pick pick?

I wasn't being "surly" (you mean surely, surely?) :P
As is obvious below, I was mentioning Gameplay in the context of delivery time, not price.

But surly, instead of mentioning rivals, you should just mention SR as it's the same price anyway!
