not even close, it's pretty hard to live ut those environments. Retro had great art artists.

So anyways, for those that have finished the game. *SPOILER* Do you think Adam is alive? The game didn't show Sector 0 blowing up, it just separated from the bottleship into outerspace. That would be a great plot in the sequel, Samus lookin for Adam, invincinble Metroids.

I thought that was implied for Fusion. That *was* Adam's intellect that had been put into that computer, presumably he died.

That walking tree boss really didn't do it for me.

Nah. That sequence was meant to be taken at face value. That explosion was one of the better-handled parts of the game.

SPOILER:

That's a normal enemy later on, appears every once in a while. For the sake of your sanity, in the future, just shoot it with missiles. Missiles kill a lot, LOT faster.

Just fought that boss as well, and I agree with your consensus. And while Tree Beard and Thardus (from Metroid Prime) are about the same height, It's all about the camera angle. The first person mode from Prime makes Thardus look like a monster from your viewpoint, while Tree Beard just looks like another bad guy to take down.

I am wondering why people are criticizing the controls? The controls of Metroid: Other M are as accessible as the controls of Metroid Prime Trilogy.

I'm enjoying this more than Corruption. I actually like the controls the way they are.

I'm liking the game so far. My only complaint is there really a lot of exploration. The controls are kinda annoying sometimes,but, I getting use to it. 

I find it amusing that your complaint and KylieDog's, exact opposites of one another, sit so close together

It truly is a game that divides opinion.
