An impressive leap in logic! Wait, no, it's an egregious affront to honest discussion to pretend that this list is "most likely" citing an interview with Retro Studios where Goldeneye is named as a major influence. Cite the source for that claim and you can get somewhere.

Until that time, the point remains that Metroid Prime has two major influences: Super Metroid (structurally) and Ocarina of Time (mechanically). The game wasn't even intended to be first-person originally, so its perspective concept being owed to Goldeneye is already off the table.

Okay then Nintendo Power and I think Goldeneye 007 was a major influence for the Metroid Prime concept. So Goldeneye 007 is still on the table. In the center I might add.

What you think is completely immaterial until you can offer somehting more than "this is what I think because it just is".

On that note: do you also think they interviewed Igarashi about Symphony of the Night? Or Team ICO about ICO?
