Metroid Prime is a first person adventure only because they took a shooter and added stuff to it.  If you wanted just a shooter that would mean simply making a game with LESS.  I don't really get why anyone would want that.  But I guess I've never been into just the shooting part and a lot of other people are, so if people want nothing more than bullets I suppose that's up to them.


Metroid Prime was classic Metroid formula in first person.  Not a shooter with stuff added.

I know that's the approach they took when they designed it, obviously.  I'm just saying that on paper you've got all these elements, and it's a shooter at heart.  Sort of like how you can claim a band is "post-neo grindcore" or whatever the hell, but at the end of the day it's still rock.
