Metroid is good don't get me wrong but it is nowhere near as good as the original halo trilogy. The universe is better, the story and gameplay are better, the characters are better and as retro studios can't make a good multiplayer mode and gave up on it after 2, you already know the multiplayer is atleast 1000 times better. If we give retro studios 20 million to make the exact same game they'd waste it all on hiring talent that knows how to make a good multiplayer and co-op game because they have zero talent in that department. Saying that however this game looks like it will not live up to the hype. I haven't been impressed with this game ever since they showed off gameplay at last years e3 and the more they show the less interested I get. |
Metroid has far better singleplayer and gameplay, it isn't about multiplayer. Halo is just point and shoot. Linear and repetitive. The original Halo was one of the first really good multiplayer FPS for consoles, and that's imo why it's so famous today. But nowdays, there are so many fps on consoles that it doesn't really stand out anymore, except by the popularity of its brand. The latest Halo games are good games, but they're games in an oversaterated genre.
Metroid isn't about a heavy story, Metroid: Other M showed us why. It's about exploration, puzzlesolving, boss fights, gradually getting more powerful. It doesn't force the story upon you, you have to look for it yourself through scanlogs.
There aren't many games like the Metroid Prime trilogy. There are many games like Halo. And that is why Metroid Prime will always be better than Halo.
