I'm pretty sure we should have a separate thread for spoilers.

Anyways, have no freakin clue on what to do with this...Omega Metroid I'm guessing what it's called. Help.

This fight is stressful. The Metroid Queen (I think that's its actual name) releases some Metroid babies that try to latch onto you and drain your life. Using your sensedodge and/or running around like a crazed gazelle, try to blast the Metroids with a charged shot. Wait till they're all in a cluster, as your Diffusion beam will allow you to hit them all at once. The reason you want to try to hit them all at once is because if you hit them enough, they'll freeze temporarily. While frozen, blast them with a Super Missile (or, if there's a few of them frozen, you can use lock onto all of them with your whatsitface missiles). After you kill the Metroids, you'll enter a little cutscene, after which you'll be stuck in first person mode. Charge shot the monster's stomach, and when he gets up and opens his mouth, grapple beam the inside of his mouth. This will propel Samus into his belly. Quickly charge up a Power Bomb (you can use them at this point) and kill him for good.

this is by far the best looking game on the wii; yes, better than galaxy 2, star successor, and corruption (even if it did have more detailed art direction). it's the only wii game i've played that truly looked like a next gen game without any compromises.

There is now a thread to talk freely about Other M here (thx, BellGoRiiing :3). If everyone would be so kind as to use that thread for spoiler-tastic comments, and leave this thread for people who don't want to be spoiled re: plot/strategy/whatev', it would be greatly appreciated. :3

Romulux, that makes sense then. I've read that some of the Prime scans are actually inconsistent and/or non-canonical, but I personally would take them for "fact" unless explicitly shown to be in contradiction. I hated scanning all the enemies and stuff, but I loved the ridiculous amount of lore and backdrop added in the Prime games. And yea, I love his explanation in Other M, too, now that I've seen it. Kind of funny, really, which seems out of place, but who cares!

Come on, friends,

@Adam: It's because the PAL version of the scans differ from the NA versions for some reason, but I take the NA version of the scans to be canonical...

I just got the speed booster, so I'm guessing I haven't played very much compared to the rest of you. I'm enjoying this game far more than I thought I would, so I'm pleasantly surprised.

Thanks for removing the spoilers. I was getting scared to post on this topic in fear of ruining the rest of the game for me. xD

Metroid: Other M has been quite an experience so far. Sure, I'm only an hour in, but the hour I've played has been great. My only problem is that knowing that you're in a holographic ship kinda detracts from the awesomeness of the area. If you know the area you are in isn't real, then it really isn't as great as thinking you're in the real thing. D: I also don't like the whole authorization aspect of the game. Being held back by the orders of the Galactic Federation isn't nearly as fun as flying solo.

Other than those minor inconveniences the game has been spectacular and I can't wait to see how the story unfolds!

The speed booster definitely made a triumphant return here.
Regarding KingBuilder's comment, I must say I actually like the holographic areas. And once you see how it ties into the story, it's even more satisfying

@KingBuilder: Not all of the environments are holographic...

I read something today actually on the Metroid wiki about at least one scan in the North American version that was inconsistent, actually. I wish I could remember what it was. Doesn't really matter to me, but I hate giving an example and not being able to cite specifics.

Finally picked up my copy today! I was going to pass on this one for now but I got a free Gamer magazine in the mail from Best Buy. It had a coupon for $15 off Metroid : Other M so I couldn't pass it up.

I seriously can't believe how beautiful the cutscenes are! Probably the best looking game on the Wii! I've only played about an hour or so but I'm liking it so far.

...Now I'm afraid to go into my own thread (where Panda changed my title for some weird reason...), and...stuck again. It's the part where you're forced to stay in first-person mode and have to defeat these giant...beetle things, I keep missiling them all to death but can never kill them all...they kill me eventually...ugh.

@Bell: That was just covered in your thread, actually, just look for my post with all the crossed out text...

@Bell: Yup, those bugs suck, and if you're planning to get 100% collection rate, prepare to face them again later on (one at a time, though, thankfully)...

This game is awesome!! With one hand I am inserting, removing and reinserting the disc, with the other hand I'm having a cup of tea and a smoke. Wow!

Please work you piece of shiz!!!!!!

Rawr!

The pre-order bonus was very lame. (The game is great though) I thought it was going to be concept art and such, but instead you get flash cards with screenshots on them with a breif description on the back. It came in a cool cover though.

I have a question for the people that completed Other M. There are 6 ´real sectors´, at least, that is what they tell you in the beginning. Are you able to play in all 6 of them or just the first 3?
