Get this, I don't think Metroid Prime sounds or looks all that. I'm not looking forward to it at all.
Start the slaughter...
First of all I hated the SNES original, secondly I hate the GBA's Fusion.
Your this Bounty Hunter who must run from place to place going from room to room (that bit is annoying when the room changes) and you get to shoot enemys once in a while with a blaster. Well woopie doo, this is really great.
Here's the deal, you run to one room on one side of the level your on and then you are told to run to the other side of the level and it continues. It drags, it gets boring, I found nothing special from doing this.
When I first saw Metroid Prime I looked at it and thought "Futuristic Shooter" and from that moment I wasn't liking it. Granted, that's all down to personal taste, some of you may love futuristic guns and shooting aliens/robots but for me it's something I always try to keep away from.
I just went on a site which shows me alot of reviews for Metroid Prime. I scrolled down and all I saw was A*, 10/10, 100/100, 6/6, 9.9/10 and the such. I found two reviews which had the game as about 3/5 and so I read them as they would outline the bads points about the game and it would probably be a more realistic review instead of hyped up rubbish. I always do that with games, always read the bad review.
The review basically outlined all I thought I would hate about the game. It described the running from room to room bit and videos I downloaded looked to be nothing special gameplay wise. Just looked like I was going to be wondering around in some stupid adventure game which would have no replay value at all.
The point of this topic?
It's for you to persade me this game is actually worth the review scores its being given. It's for you to show me this isn't gonna be another boring adventure game.
If anything I want Metroid Prime to suprise me. I want it to be another game I can add to my collection and be proud of owning and enjoy playing. But at the moment it doesn't even look like it's gonna be in there as it just doesn't look like my type of game at all.
It's not a console seller, just another attempt at doing so.

You've got a thing for short posts an't you Beards.
:-)
But i disagree with him though, Renting a game of that size is barely going to let you sratch the surface of a game like that.

I'll do just that.
If I hate it I can come here while you all love it and say it's poop.
:-D

Makes sense to me.

I've tried to convince myself to like it by reading lots of reviews and watching lots of videos. But it's doing nothing.
I'm just telling myself how I'm going to get this game, I'm gonig to play it and I'm then gonig to be bored to death.
It just looks so boring to play.

I didn't think it looked that good at first either, but it got such ridiculously high scores everywhere that it must have something about it.
I don't think it's a love or hate game either, like Shenmue or whatever, I think it's a love or like game.
Don't spoil your chances at having one of the best games of all ime because 'you don't think it looks that hot'.

Metroid Fusion was great. I wasn't too sure I'd like it, but it rocked! it was indeed a little on the short side, but as soon as I completed it, I went through it again.
I'm expecting Metroid prime to be a bigger, more impressive and longer version of Fusion, and if it is, well, you won't be seeing me for a few months then.
