I've just completed the game inside out

• Extremely detailed characters and diverse, colourful environments that are indeed very Metroid-esque
• Items are sometimes very well hidden, Metroid-style!
• Nice emotional sidestory with cutscenes that are fluidly integrated into the gameplay...
• Nice details and references of enemies of the previous titles
• Mostly fresh, minimalistic, yet atmospheric backgroundmusic
• Last boss was a huge nostalgic surprise...
• Perfect controls
• Nice unlockables
• Quite lengthy considering the extras
• Addictive enough to give it another try

10/10

blackdragon, it's not ridley but the nightmare guy that's the spoiler. those references to old games only really work when they're a surprise, so it's best not to blurt them out here; we've got another thread specifically for blurting.

@romulux: the comment that was reported (it's not here in the thread anymore) only mentioned Ridley iirc (i didn't screengrab it before either he took it out himself or someone else took it out). my comment was aimed at those who were flipping out about it, which doesn't include you, i don't think :3

I've changed the topic title but let me spell it out here too: if you do not want to read spoilers, this is not the thread for you.

It's not completely spoiler-filled, James, just a few people who have posted stuff accidentally due to excitement. Besides, there was already a thread specifically created for Other M spoilers...

Point taken!

@MF: either way, i know i'm sick of babysitting it. from now on, y'all're on your own*
_{*not really, who am i kidding}

@Dragon: Don't worry, I'll do my best to make sure that these excited mistakes quit happening...

@MF: if you mean you're going to harass individuals who post spoilers on accident, we'd really rather you didn't. Just report them and be done with it, plz.

@Dragon: That's not what I meant at all, actually. I can't think of a single instance where I've "harassed" any user, especially not on NL. Yes, I meant I'd report any spoiler...

An interquel between Metroid II and Super Metroid would've been very interesting, instead of building further upon the (great nonetheless) Fusion title....

Just checking in to say I love it.

Too bad we can't have a spoiler-free thread, because it makes posting impressions extremely dangerous. :/

You can use the sensedodge move in first person by shaking the Wiimote.

? There is a spoiler thread!

This one has spoilers too, turtle.

Oh. i see..
Oh and-

Ahahahaha.

3 more days before I can play this game. Spoilers everywhere I look.

Not going to read all through the post as Im only about halfway through the game. Im having a good time with it, BUT the constantly shooting and getting attacked offscreen becomes annoying. I do miss the enemies dropping health and powerups, kinda makes killing random enemies pointless sometimes and I just run though instead if Im backtracking.

Why cant I mash the "B" button and strafe? The dang button is there and strafing would solve so many issues in this game!

I enjoy the story a lot, I like Samus character and backstory and I like the voice acting. The unauthorized weapon deal doesnt bother me a bit, heck if I could activate my suit to ward off the heat the lava fish part wouldnt have been near as much fun.

Some of the fast moving bosses that dissapear offscreen alot can just be plain annoying, especially the Lobster thing in Sector 3. Trying to switch modes from 1st to 3rd can get a bit annoying at times but the majority of the time it great.

I cant agree with the 9/10 score anymore. The controls arent there for me but I will gladly say a 7/10 would be perfect, controls are a major factor for me and the limitations of the Wii controller are to blame not the game, well maybe it is because if the nunchuck could be plugged in and then the first person only activate when pointed at the screen things would work much better I think. Control are a must and they arent fully there for me. Still a great game nontheless.

This is my first metriod game, and so far, I have to say its pretty horrible. Its way to serious, Samus talks like a flipping robot, which I didn't think was bad on the trailers, but first hand it makes me cringe, when ever I'm forced to watch the unskippable cutscenes I just want to turn the game OFF.
On top of that, the gameplay is dull; and over complicated, it would have been so much less cluttered if they would have used the nunchuck, the music is dull, environments: DULL, those black suit space guys or what ever they are are generic and lame, ZERO charisma so far. I wanted more action honestly, like sin @ punishment but Nintendo, only gotten to the first boss and I already regret doing that gamestop deal trading in 2 of my best games, S&P and SMG2 for this bore-fest.
