Forums - Nintendo Discussion - The Official Metroid Prime 3 Reviews Thread

Oh yeah, thus far the big three hyped games that have come out, according to reviewers

Bioshock>Metroid Prime 3>>Heavenly Sword

It's not over yet, but I doubt metroid is going to score the 10s necessary to overcome bioshock. I am interested to see where Halo 3 is going to fit in there though. I mean it is the second coming of videogame jesus, from what I hear on the street.

........must import game........must mod wiii.......can't wait til october 26th........



Hmm browser seemed to go weird when I posted. Will try again.

Gametrailers and Ign are my 2 most trusted sites and they say it's awesome which is enough for me (It's MP though so I never doubted it would be fantastic).
The IGN review did make it sound like it would be a little bit higher (9.6 or 9.7) but with a 9.5 you can't really complain.

I expect gamespot to give it an unusually low score compared to others. Somewhere around 88% wouldn't surprise me.

I understand what they mean about controls though. Even with games like RE4 I notice how much the wii controls improve it. The thought of playing RE5 with dual analog is just annoying. Feels like a massive step backwards.



Turkish says and I'm allowed to quote that: Uncharted 3 and God Of War 3 look better than Unreal Engine 4 games will or the tech demo does. Also the Naughty Dog PS3 ENGINE PLAYS better than the UE4 ENGINE.

Androo... honestly... that sig is way too big. It almost takes up my entire browser window. can you please make it a bit smaller?



Help! I'm stuck in a forum signature!

That is so great, I've been waiting for a balanced shooter since the Wii came out.
I don't like Medel of Honor or Call of duty that much, but these controls sounds awesome!



Predictions for December 31st 2008:
Wii 38,000,000
DS 84,500,000
PS3 17,000,000
PSP 41,000,000
X360 23,000,000

Actually Gamespot score on an .5 basis now. So they, I predict, will give it an 8.5.

EDIT: Edited my sig... *sigh*

Metroid Prime 3 Hype Level: Corrupted

Reviews:

1UP - 9.0 

IGN - 9.5

It is a hardcore game through and through. You will get your ass kicked by bosses. You will be stumped by the sometimes complex, but never overbearing, exploration.

These are the type of comments that are getting this whole thing very interesting



It's sad but I keep going to my metroid preview channel just to feel how smooth the cross hair moves around. I really can't wait to try out what the wiimote can do when used proper.

New technology and ideas take time to come into their own, I think Metroid is one of the first games that will show what Nintendo had envisioned when going in this drastically altered route. I just hope the innovations keep flowing.

Nah no way this is going to get 8.5 from Gamespot. I say 9.
