Hey guys...i'm not sure if this topic should be posted in this section but i have enough money for one of these games and i cannot seem to pick which one i want.
after seeing people say the conduit is abit of a letdown i sorta pulled back on buying it on realese day and i just realised that The metroid prime collection is out in August so thats coming up pretty fast plus i never played any metroid prime game before.
Just tell me what you guys think.
thanks!^^

Eh, they're completely different games. Buy MP if you want a game that will last longer, and is a first-person adventure. MP has more emphasis on exploration than combat. Buy Conduit if you're into things like Halo and CoD, and want a traditional first person shooter. The Conduits campaign is a nice experience, however is short lived, and multiplayer sucks in my opinion (laggy and glitches galore). You'll get a better value out of MP, and for $50 you might want to wait for a Conduit price drop. In the end though, it's up to you.

1º You buy the conduit

2º You wait and work and win money

3º You buy metroid with the money

Trilogy is by far the better game(s), but Conduit has online play (which has treated me darn well, though I hear horror stories from other players so maybe rent it first to make sure you won't have any serious issues).

They're both worth owning for different reasons, but Trilogy is miles ahead of the Conduit in overall quality.

Well, the Metroid Prime Trilogy is one of the greatest trilogies in recent gaming history, so it's definatly worth checking out. However, if you're looking for a pure FPS, you can't go wrong with the Conduit. Metroid Prime is more of a first person action game, with the occasional shoot-out. There's a lot of exploration and puzzle-solving. They're fantastic games, but I wouldn't call them FPS, if that's what you're looking for.

Prime offers a way better single player epxerience. The Conduit online glitch is effecting some as I have had problems with it but once you get it to work its pretty fun theres a few good online maps but some boring once also. The single player in Conduit is good but far from extraordinary, extremely straightforward. I would give the Conduit an 8 out of 10 overall. If you look at the Metroid Prime trilogy they are adding the Corruption controls to the oringinal two Prime games and all 3 of those games are at least a 9 or higher out of 10. If you want bang for your buck you could say the Conduit has the online but the Metroid Prime games is gonna take up quite a bit of your time. Personally I would go with Prime trilogy.

It really depends on the state of their servers. Some days it's almost impossible to get a good game going, while on others matches run almost lag-free. Even with that said, The Conduit is really not all that earth-shattering as some made/make it out to be. It's a decent and enjoyable FPS with generic plot points - then again, when was the last time you've played an FPS for its story? - so it ends up being a fun game notwithstanding.

If it's still one or the other though, I'd definitely go with the Metroid Prime trilogy.

I know August 24th seems like a long time, but I say wait since it will give you much more bang for your buck. To tide me over for the Trilogy, I am actually going to go buy New Play Control Pikmin this week, since I never really had a chance to play it on the Gamecube.
