Metroid Prime was kind of boring, to be honest.
The controls were clunky and sluggish, and I am not sure why you think there's a good story? The game had a bit at the beginning and a bit at the end, and it was fairly unmemorable. Scanning items for definitions is NOT story. That is what you call an annoying and intrusive mechanic to provide info dumps.
A story is how a character overcomes a conflict,the other characters, dialogue, action, narrative, and plot structure that takes the reader/audience/player through the story. Stories begin with a setup and a conflict, then follow a plot of points that escalate the conflict, leading up to the climax. A game with a good story is Final Fantasy 7, Chrono Trigger, or Xenogears... but certainly not Metroid, that game has almost no story to speak of.

No it wasn't, doesn't matter how many times you say this, how many years you keep insisting, you are one on a minority. Metroid Prime was probably the best gaming experience of my life back in the day, I expected nothing and it end up being the most captivating and atmospheric game I had ever played, and that seems to be the opinion of most people that played it too, so...

And btw, Metrod Prime has a good story and a great Lore, you have to analize the environments of the game to understand it, is kind of like Dark Souls but way less criptic, if you can't appreciate it that's another story.
