"Metroid Prime" on the gameCube was a defining game for me... I was out of work with a blown disc in my back and I spent two weeks getting 100% scans and all areas and the "good ending", etc., basically made love to the game... it was and still is one of my top five games of a ll time. When I got the DS version I was very impressed with the graphics and control, I thought the environments were fairly well thought-out but not quite on a par with it's console progenitor - AND THAT IS OK IN MY BOOK, by the way... but in the end I got frustrated with it and didn't finish. It didn't captivate me. The online is flippin' horrid with hackers so I haven't played more than about an hour all-told. I'd rather play bots than cheaters.
"CoD: WaW" is the same. Fun at the outset, but ultimately flawed in such distracting ways that don't ever allow you to get comfy with the title and therefor you just end up moving on. I'm going to finish the Story Mode of CoD, I might even get the "Modern Combat" version after I'm done for the DS, but certainly not for the online - it's a joke.
"Hunters" is an achievement, no doubt. I still own my copy... maybe I'll pop it in and take another stab at finishing it.
:D
