32 player Halo 2 with vehicles, massive levels, online play, tons of different game modes, online co-op or 4 player Metroid with lock on targetting......I think I know which one I'd be choosing.

You numbskull the game looks as good as the last, these are scans from a magazine so naturally appear dodgy.

They are real they were shown on IGN as well.

And multi-player is a great way of increasing the length and competing with Halo... it will be like a massive game of hunt.

I hope these shots are fake because they look bloody awful.

4 player deathmatch.....why? just because all the mongloids were up in arms about the lack of multiplayer doesn't mean Nintendo should bow down to the drooling masses and add it. It's Metroid for croist sakes.

I must confess this does look really good and I'm not a fan of the Prime series.

Today I am going to try and play the original again and hopefully get back into it.

Here's hoping.
