Metroid needs to go darker and embrace the M rating. I loved Prime as a pre-teen and a teenage but honestly... it hardly does well with the younger generation. They want Halo. Metroid is a far more complex and more mature themed game than Halo is and Metroid needs to embrace that.

It's great as it is but it's influenced by some pretty hardcore R rated shit like Aliens. All the gore on the visor and stuff, the violence game off more realistic than the cartoony looking blood in Halo way back when. I remember when people wanted Prime 4 to take on a horror feel to it.


Basically I want it to be an FPS again. It feels too natural and Metroid needs to stick with the exploration vibe with heavy action sequences and unique boss fights. Oh and if the VR rumor is true, lets play a bit with that. I'm sure most guys have no problem being Samus xD I mean lets be real. She's probably more Alpha as fuck than they are.

Halo is a game where you run around and go pew pew.  Metroid is a game where you spend half of your time wandering around hopefully stumbling upon a cracked wall you missed.  

Halo being more popular doesn't have much to do with it being M rated, particularly because Halo isn't exceptionally violent.  It's just that Halo is a very accessible pick up and play title, and Metroid is the exact opposite.
