"My Metroid Prime impressions...."

Graphics: Superb, neon lit corriders, a rainy forest, an Aztec ruin and a space station make up for possibly the best graphics seen so far on the Gamecube. All this happens in the first couple of hours of play!!! and i'm only 11% complete!!! Bugs are huge and spray green goo on your lens so it slowly moves down, making things harder to see, and everything looks extremly polished. 9/10

Music: Scary in some ways, when you defeat the first boss you have to get out of the space station before the time runs out, here you hear eerie world war type sirens and Sci-Fi beats, fast and very cool. 10/10

Controls: The first level tells you easily how to work the controls and from there it's a blessing, superb. 10/10

Levels: HUGE, but surprisignly the map helps you get around. I've come across all of the above and i'm only 11% complete, this game is massive!!! 10/10

Overall so far: This is not your average FPS, but it's superb, you really can't tell this game was nearly scrapped and in my opinion it's much better then any other FPS, including Time Splitters 2. I really can't pin point on why it's so good, but you really just can't stop playing. Even when you have to go back through the levels you come from it's no-where near boring and you'll enjoy blowng up bugs and not humans!!! 10/10

Any questions?? Ask me and I'LL TRY and answer them for you.....

I just checked my local independant retailer. I am the first to pre-order it!

¦:¬D

Indeed.........

I take it that it will be sold out after 5 mins of being on sale. I will have to pre-order it a.s.a.p! I think I might Pre-Order it now. LOL

Does it have seprate levels or is it all one seamless world, as some have said it might be?

It's the NES classic you get!

:)

Sorry i have took so long to answer some questions. To the person who asked 'What is your favourite bit so far' it must be when you enter the snow level, Samus looks up at a massive snow coated building in the distance and it just looks beautiful. You can kind of strafe, when you lock onto your enemies you press B and A to shoot and move, i thought it would be easy locking onto your enemies to kill them but their so clever, they move out of the way, jump to your face, you really do have to be quick. It's fantastic i certainly have no regrets buying it and it's not your normal FPS but i love it!!! I was getting really excited about it and it didn't let me down, it's actually better then you all think.... By the way don't worry about the lifespan of this game i'm about 15% complete and played it for about 4 hours!!! I've also got Metroid fusion and once you complete that, i'm going to link it up with my US cube and get the Snes Classic of Metroid!!!! I can't wait!!

I will get Metroid. Just need to get on the old Europe waiting platform, (It is getting drowded already)

He says Metroid Prime is freaking great but the thing is he is in this part where there is a ledge that he can't reach. I said GET THE DUMB GRAPPLE HOOK. But he can't find it.

He is probably still playing fusion now. But overall Metroid kicks for more a.....look a butterfly
