Typical internet response. Either something is the best thing ever OR a monumental fail.

Get knotted! A "travesty" is a huge exaggeration. Actually a solid addition to the Metroid canon - if losing a lot of the isolation/atmosphere of old. Certainly a steal for under £3.

Good deal but a travesty of a game. Can't believe what they did with Samus.

Ok "travesty" was a bit harsh, but compared to the previous games it really is utter balls. I suppose for £2.99 though it's worth a go...

I really enjoyed this game and loved the control mechanics of switching view perspectives by pointing the Wii remote. All in all, I found it an atmospheric, entertaining and very well polished game. :wink:

Travesty is just about fair imo... I wouldn't have been as gentle with my words!

for £3 this is amazing value for money. heat!

It's always been around this price though didn't really expect it to go hot.

The game itself was riddled with control issues. Heck I couldn't even play it until recently when I used a 360 controller with dolphin. The constant shift from using the wiimote horizontally like a controller to re-orientating to pointing it at the screen to fire some missiles then quickly back again to dodge incoming fire was clunky and unintuitive.

A stark contrast to the seamless, wall jumping ninja of old, Other M samus could barely walk and fire at the same time.
Wall jumping can also only be performed in the pre-designed "wall jump" sections.. I loved wall jumping, prime did remove it but added horizontal booting in an attempt to compensate

Not even going to mention the complete degradation of Samus' character. This game was a disgrace.
For £3 it's probably worth a play just so you can choose a side :innocent:

It had its flaws yes but I loved the game nonetheless, well worth this price imo. Have some heat!
