If you don't already have Prime 1 & 2 for GameCube, get Metroid Prime Trilogy instead of just Prime 3.

They funny thing is, because Nintendo of America made so few copies of Trilogy, it's still cheaper to get all three separately. Trilogy is still going for retail price used, at least, while Corruption you can get super cheap on Ebay. But Trilogy is one fancy package, so if you aren't pinching pennies, it does look nice.

Metroid Prime 3 is way better than Arkham. Not that Arkham is bad. The level design in Arkham is much more linear than MP3 and with Samus you get to shoot an arm cannon and roll up walls. Metroid's level of difficulty is much better too, much more of a challenge. I think they compared the two because of the detective mode in Arkham copied Prime with the X-ray vision. Seriously, get yourself the Metroid Prime Trilogy collection and you can have three triple A games in one for the same price as just Arkham. Arkham is only 10 hours long, a single Metroid Prime game pushes 20 hours. That's SIX times more content at the same price with the Metroid Prime Trilogy.

No he wouldn't. Samus is a genetic super soldier with futuristic space weapons, a powered exoskeleton, and backup from the Chozo, the Galactic Federation, and a giant Metroid willing to protect her. Batman is just a rich guy in a costume. One Screw Attack and Batman is cut in half.

So, Turtle? Don't buy that one. You can find it on Ebay for less than half that. I'll sell you my copy of Excite Bots for $250, but that doesn't mean you can't find it much cheaper, haha.

Links or it didn't happen. I just opened both reviews, and neither had the word "Metroid" turn up once. You must have misread, or were you reading user reviews?

Not to mention Batman has only dealt with other humans, Samus has taken down some dragon dude ten bazillion times, that...pile of boulders, a GIANT F'ING ROBOT, some giant Ing with some wicked hair-due, and a powered up version of herself (twice with SA-X)...and a brain, and some beer belly reptile creep (Kraid), a giant robotic eyeball and some pillar (lol Hunters), and...and...I dunno what else to mention, lol.

Batman has defeated, not just taken on, but defeated Superman, Green Lantern and Martian Manhunter. Two of those guys have every power you can think of (including super spelling, I kid you not) and the other is (was) only limited by yellow and his imagination. Samus is just a chick in armor. She'd have about 30 seconds to kill him or she's finished.

Samus destroyed an entire species of creatures that suck the life out of anything and everything. Then she blew up a planet. I think she's more than a chick in an armor.

Superman has a giant obvious weakness. Any fight with him boils down to a simple yes or no question.

Do you have kryptonite?
Yes: You win.
No: You lose.

No: You lose.

And considering Samus travels around space, it probaly wouldn't be hard for her to find kryptonite.

And you could basicly call Batman some dude in a costume.

This is why Samus could beat Superman or Batman.

Batman would hold off Samus with his mechanical suit until he uses some gadget to shut down Samus's suit. After that, Batman would leave his mech and clobber Zero Suit Samus with his martial arts and normal gadgets. If Samus calls in the Galactic Federation, Batman calls in the Justice League.

Samus would scan Batman's mechanical suit before he had a chance to come near her, spot the weakness, exploit it and destroy him...

Also, Arm Cannon+kryptonite beam= no more supes...

Batman's quality of work wouldn't leave any easily exploitable weaknesses.
