whatever ofucks who gives a shit about fucking metroid anymore. besides, id wait to see if that game is good or not, it doesnt really seem to amaze me all too much with its ads on the TV. I own timeplitters 2 and it kicks some serious ass on all levels.

Yeah, Timesplitters 2 rules, although I miss a lot of the characters from the first one, especially Peekaboo Jones, but anyway.
Also, the music fuqing rules, I love Neo-Tokyo's music!

I played it for a little while but it really didn't hold my interest. The animation really bothered me for some reason and the controls were queer.

metroid-movieclips at ign.com look amazing :-o
I wouldn't think it'd be possible, but it actually looks like a metroid-game in 3d.
Damn... i wonder how long i'm going to be able to resist buying a gamecube now?

Ah, fuck this shit. I went everywhere this morning, skipped classes to traverse the various malls, and Metroid isn't in yet.
Fuck this shit.
Fuck it. My life is ruined.
But I did use my time wisely to beat Metroid Fusion, so I'm feeling a little better...

You could get it off me on Soulseek, I'm revolverjgw, it's in the emulation folder along with many many other illegal roms because I'm a cheap bastard.
I'd e-mail it to you or something, but it's like 6MB, too big for my e-mail.

all i have to say is HOLY SHIT!
both games are just fucking phenomenal, nothing more to say, metroid prime is one of the best games ive played in a looooong time but im not very far either, I cant give it a grade for sure until i complete it. fusion is an awesome sequel to super metroid though. my god they outdid themselves with these 2 metroid games I have no idea what future metroids will be like now.

Well I've already beaten Fusion a couple days ago, and it IS amazing. A bit linear, which is kind of a fault... but I liked it like that, because I always got lost in the other Metroids, no computer guy to tell me what to do and where to go.
I was at Wal-Mart looking at the GBA games today, and they're all about 45 dollars! Jesus.

Oh, right :
Buy Metroid Prime right now. If your local store is closed, break in and leave the cash on the counter. If you don't have any cash, leave an IOU.

My ONLY complaint is that the music is too detailed at times.. The minimalism of past Metroid soundtracks is what gave the games their unforgetable eerie atmosphere -- To this day I still get chills down my spine whenever I hear the theme music from the original.

maybe sprites are simply a better medium for videogames.
I'm having a bit of fun playing Soul Reaver on DC, though. It's cool cuz you're evil and kill evil creatures and eat their souls. so far, it seems lacking in the number of enemies, and too confusing 3-d environment where u feel like you need a map. doom 2 is still way better. but this is the first game i played in a long time where it has a doom2 potential, and with lotsa tweaking could be much better.

i'm facing a dilemma here:
should i get a ps2 for gta
or
a game cube for metroid prime?
i wouldn't mind having both, but i'd find it more convenient of both games were on one system. i guess it's better that it's like this tho to maintain the competition in the video game industry..

I'm a few steps ahead of you in Prime; feel free to ask the venerable Cabbog any questions you might have. I finally sat down and played Fusion for a few minutes today - it's good but it deviates a lot from the traditional Metroid feel.. The color pallete is more exotic and the animation style seems different. Haven't played it enough to form a real opinion yet though.

Haha, I'm about to leave for church... this sucks.
I'm got the power bombs and now I'm traversing the planet looking for weak spots. I beat Fusion a long time ago, got a head start on it with the ROM. Not as good as Super Metroid, but a lot less frustrating, because you always know where to go... that takes a lot away from that lonely, scary feeling, I think.
By the way, if you're REALLY stuck and feeling hopeless, go Here
I swear to God I haven't used it yet! It's not even as far as I am.
