Topic: Metroid: Other M Hype/Discussion Thread (MAY CONTAIN SPOILERS SO BE CAREFUL)

Thanks for the tips guys but it's too late--I beat Ridley

So any tips for Mother Brain?

@Madgear

I would never beat a game with a Glitches, or short cuts.
it said so on the guide, this guy beat the game fairly and with 100%, and with easter eggs.

It shows you were to go and how to use some of Samus skills, like Wall jumping.
it not easy to wall jump, and it take time to get it right.
and the Guy also tells you, that you can go back to a place if you can't wall jump it.

she a easy boss, you don't have to worry much

Posted this in the artwork thread, but I thought it had a place here--a little doodle I just did

@Kid_A: Nice doodle, there.

Relating more to the thread's topic: Curse GameStop for not having a midnight release for Other M, now I have to wait until 10 AM tomorrow to pick up my copy... >=0

I was expecting the NL review of this today.
^{Doesn't matter, it'll probly get an 8 or 9, anyway.....}

@sonic_brawler: Panda said it'd be up last Friday, but I guess something's keeping him occupied...

I'm bummed about this as well. Now there's a good chance I won't be able to pick it up tomorrow. Might have to wait till wednesday

It'll probably be on NL once it's released tomorrow.

I'm picking up my copy and playing it before I head to class tomorrow

@irken: I'm definitely going to be at the GameStop before it opens tomorrow...

Just hours away from release now. Can't wait!

It definitely looks good but I'm getting worried about some of the things I've heard. Like only using her abilities when ordered or the auto aiming makes it to easy. The story elements sound promising though. Looking forward to that. Last but not least is how the close combat takes place. Is it going to be a series of on screen button presses or actual combo moves?

@Tech I'm a bit worried too, something deep down says "lame" but I won't know til I get it and it's Metroid so there's no way I'm passing on this.

I'll have to wait until the end of the week (September the 3rd, European release date)...

By that time i expect the topic to be filled with words about your glorious experiences!!

I know what you mean by its metroid I've played them all and have not been disappointed yet!

The only thing that it sounds like they really screwed up is the fight with Ridley. Watch g4's explanation video to see what I mean. Other than that (and the over-all bad writing) it actually looks like a great time to me. The controls are made up of exactly the sort of unique, quirky things that I like. The gameplay looks faced paced and action packed. We get some backstory on Samus and we get to fill in some plot holes...I'm pumped.

Well, I just got my copy in the mail. Can't wait to pop this baby in.

SO JEALOUS!

Did anyone happen to catch X-Play's review of the game? 2 out of 5...They're usually unnecessarily rough on games so I don't know what to think.
