teigaga said: I haven't played metroid 1 but I played 3, and its story was almost non-existent and when it did make an appearance it was horribly told. Would have better as something more abstract and silent. I prefer metroid for its atmosphere and sense of discovery but halo has the more interesting combat. Really hoping to see a metroid 4 this gen, hopefully they learn how to deal with stories and emotion this time. |
@bolded: Yep, that's exactly how the first Metroid Prime's story was and it was done spectacularly. Prime 3's storytelling was abysmal, IMO.
OT: Prime wins easily for me but it's also a contender for the single best polygonal-based game ever made along with Zelda:OoT, Majora's Mask and the original Bioshock.
I still think the first Halo was a terrific game.
