From the reviews it seems to be a very good game, but not a very good traditional Metroid Game. Kinda what happened with Silent Hill Shattered Memories. It's more action oriented, with few exploration until the very end (weird considering Sakamoto said it was a very important element).

Also it's kind sad the game is short with not much challenge. Super Metroid could be finished in less than 10 hours BUT once you knew what to do. This takes the same time the first playthough =(

I have mixed feelings, it's for Metroid fans because of Samus' story, but at the same time it's not a traditional Metroid game. I'll probably enjoy it, but I'm somewhat dissapointed with the exploration stuff

Super Metroid in 10 hours?  Hell, you could legitimately beat the game in under 3 hours if you knew what to do.  Using glitches, someone got100% and beat the game in under one hour.

Yes, you could finish it in less than 3 hours but you had to be very good at it. I was refering more about a second playthrough, you know the game but still don't dominate it. Anyway, my point was that it's a short game compared to Super Metroid, the total time it takes you to finish the game  is equivalent to a second playthrough of Super Metroid.

Edit:  with 100%
