The shooting MIGHT have been upped but the 'zelda-like' elements you mention are still there. If you don't like to explore, solve puzzles and back track this game is not for you.
I see only one thing that is a similarity to the Halo franchise - you see the game in first person. You don't even weild a gun that shoots bullets. You shoot electrical charges/ice/lava laser etc. I have a friend who doens't like Metroid at all just because it doens't have real, or close to real, guns.
You don't even have a choice in Prime 3 - just one fat stacakable arm-canon. Metroid is what describes my gaming tastes but not everyone's tastes is the same.

Metroid Prime 3 Hype Level: CorruptedReviews:
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. |
