I rated it 9.4/10, and I'm not a Metroid fan.
The only people who found it a "massive dissapointment" were people who had their expectations either too high, expected it to fail from the start or expected it to be 2D. It wasn't. It was different. Not as good as the Prime series, but certainly no disappointment...
(see: Super Mario Sunshine, Twilight Princess. These are similar, and I love them all)

That's a bit of a strawman. Some people might have just thought the story was bad, because they think it's a bad story.
And before anyone goes "lots of game stories are bad", that still means those stories are bad.

Perhaps, but my point was that it was a "love it or a hate it" game, not dissimilar to the games mentioned above.
Each main Nintendo series has one, and for Metroid, it just so happened to be Other M. Doesn't mean its any better or worse in my eyes. However, it does mean that it "splits the fanbase", hence why he said he thought it was rubbish.
Everything, in the end, is an opinion

I didnt try it yet, but to me, it looks more appealing then the other metroid gamecube or Wii titles. Didnt particularly likes the 3D one, but I like the mix of Other M. I need to play this in a near future, as soon as I work less then I am right now.

I'd advise you to get it, it's damn good. If you didn't like Prime then maybe its more for you, because the FP modes are limited and not always required. Sorta like the shooting modes of the Resi games i.e. can't move in first person.
The price has dropped now, and here in the UK you can get them new for £12.99 . First time I've seen ANY first party Nintendo game drop in price so quickly...
