Metroid Other M

Managed to bag myself a sealed copy of Metroid Other M for £3.99 today. I was going to get it off the E Shop, but something held me back, glad I was indecisive know.

    They were selling for about £3 new in one of the local shops near me about two years ago. I wish I'd picked one up now as I've never seen them anywhere at that price since! Glad you managed to find a copy.

  • Got mine from Argos, only one left in the store. Nice to know its brand new and never been opened.

    Yeahs2
  • You wasted money. Other M is a disgrace to the Metroid series.

  • Looks like I'll have to check Argos then.

  • @Blasto. Other M is only a disgrace to those internet whiners that can't deal with change. It's not Metroid Prime, but it's still decent in it's own right. Look at how Federation force is being slated at the moment. Im a Nintendo fan, but even I find it hard to defend some of my fellow fans at times.

  • Other M threw everything that Metroid is out the window, turned Samus from a total badass to a whinny baby and had the audacity to mess with the fragile timeline of one of the few Nintendo series that even had one. I was hyped for this game back in the day and got it on launch. It sickened me how much they butchered the series.

  • I agree about trying to make it cinematic and Samus being a bit whiny, but the gameplay is pretty tight and graphically its one of, the best looking games on the Wii. Prime got the balance right by focusing more on gameplay and less on cinematics. Excuse my last post as it wasn't a dig on you pal, modern gaming annoys me as its mainly hate or having to pick a side. That's the internet for you.

    Yeahs3
  • While I personally don't agree fully with the gameplay, you are right that the graphics are nice, and the green lights on Samus' suit in dark areas are pretty wizard. I didn't mean any harm with my first post either, I just have very strong feelings for this series. I apologize if I came off as rude, though.

  • You hate modern gaming?

    Yeahs1
  • Dont worry pal, I like your passion. Be a boring world if we agree on everything.

    Yeahs1
  • Not modern gaming itself Jules/pete, games are getting better. Just this petty my "console is better than your console" attitude and "this game is rubbish because it differs slightly from the last version". Gamers have never had it so good, yet go out of their way to bicker and complain.

    Yeahs2
  • Well, that passion has grown as several years passed without a new Metroid game being announced as some sort of damage control after Other M. I'm looking forward to Federation Force, since I've wanted to play as a squad of Federation Marines since I first saw them in Prime 2. Not really feeling the art direction, however.

  • @clint- Do you not think it would have been the same had internet been around earlier? Now i'm not that old, but when I was young, i never had a pc or internet either, so you're kinda oblivious to public opinion and just enjoy what you like, but i can definitely see the effect public opinion is having on you lol. :P

    Yeahs1
  • I remember the days without internet very well, I was oblivious to how badly Gamecube was doing and enjoying the games. It's not public opinion that bothers me, its just that nobody has anything nice to say these days. The internet started off as a wonderful tool to reach many people, but has now started to breed hate with the rise of the keyboard warrior brigade.

    Yeahs3
