I expect a solid 80. Previews are being quite good and almost everyone seems surprised by how good the game actually is. Also, after watching the Q&A of Gamexplain, I've seen things that might confirm my suspects: the story mode being between 10 and 15 hour long to complete, having A LOT of variety between missions, gameplay and controls being really good and polished, online working pretty much perfect... The only thing they can really complain are graphics and not being the Metroid we wanted, but the second one just doesn't seem fair for the rating of this game.
Sure, it will not be original Prime Trilogy level of good, but I can see it scoring very well.
Also, for everyone saying this shouldn't be named "Metroid"... How shouldn't? I mean, it has Space Pirates, it has the Galactic Federation, it has Samus, it has the GFS from Metroid Prime 3, the door design is the exact same as in that game, the story is about what happens after the destruction of Phazee and Dark Samus... I don't know, this game seems to have all the right to be named "Metroid".
