Metroid is easily amongst my top 5 franchises, and Metroid Prime and Super Metroid are two of my favourite games of all time. To say that I'm excited about MP4 is an understatement.

Regarding my ranking, I don't think I really have one, except that Super Metroid and Metroid Prime are pretty much tied at the top. I also need to play AM2R. And while we're at it, can we talk about how awesome Axiom Verge is?

Yes we can!  Axiom Verge was one of my favorite games last gen.  Excellent level design, upgrades, weapons, an interesting story, and one of the best video game soundtracks of all time.  And all made by one dude, Thomas Happ.  His story is incredible and I really hope we see a 16bit evolution of Axiom Verge announced next year at E3 called Super Axiom Verge.  Please, please, please.

An Axiom Verge sequel would make my day.  Do we know what Mr. Happ is working on these days?

And agreed on the soundtrack.  Moody. Unsettling. Synth-based. It fit the game to a tee.
