About where Khuutra was when he first posted his comments (Just got the Disruptor Beam, which is pretty neat).
I pretty much agree with his inital assessment of the game, minus the super angry part. The dialogue is cheesy ("Okay. Confession time" will live in infamy. It's pretty bad.), and her relationship with Adam is borderline creepy (Very relieved when he was deemed a "father figure". I was about to throw my controller at the T.V. if it was anything more than that.), but the cut scenes aren't that bad. I mean, they're not good... but they're not what G4TV or GameInformer were saying (like I was going to believe them anyways).
I'm a little annoyed every time Samus is in her Zero suit though, because there's some camera angles that really make me roll my eyes. I've never thought of Samus as a sexual video game diva along the lines of Laura Croft (I actually find all of those Zero Suit fan pictures to be somewhat comical, since they really don't portray the Samus I play as at all.), so I find it annoying that her character has the potential to be taken advantage of.
Main complaint: Directional pad. A joystick would do wonders in this game. Still, this game is by no means an 6 or even a 7. The game gets the action down, and the bosses are pretty wicked. The gameplay is pretty much there... so I guess it all goes back to the character of Samus. That's whats going to divide fans on Other M methinks.
And as for defining the classics: I'd put Metroid Prime 3 in there with Super and Prime 1. Zero Mission is great too...
