As I have said in the past, I really don't think that one single trailer is enough information to tell us much of anything about what the game will really be like.

all i know from the trailer is that it wont have the atmosphere of metroid prime. hopefully it will be great in other areas to make up for that, but theres not much specific information in the trailer to say.

It looks more action packed and mainstream, personally I like that better, Prime games were good but bored me at times. The graphics and the switch between first and third person look cool.

I think that Metroid: Other M will probably be better than the Metroid Prime series, even though I haven't seen much footage. I just hope they are able to keep the awesome atmosphere intact.

just don't know... but i can tell you that I am really hoping blows the doors off the rest. Nintendo has their hands in the mixing pot so I'm sure it will not be bad. I will buy it on release.

Now if they would just release it with a Wii HD!!!! :D (please don't get your panties in a wad cause I mentioned mydesperate hope for anew Wii)

I saw the trailer also and it looks amazing but I can't vote at the moment because I don't know what the games about.

I don't think it will be as good as Metroid Prime, but I think it will still be a really good game.

we know it's metroid. that's it. but nintendo managed to come up with a pretty "hypeable" trailer, and presented it in a way nobody was expecting, causing it to become one of the most hyped wii titles right now :P

We don't know much about the game yet, but I don't think it will be better than the first Metroid Prime. Sure, it'll most likely be better than Echoes and maybe Corruption, but the first one -- no way.

yeah man. Don't judge a game based on a single trailer, especially if a new team is developing it.

I don't go by the trailer, but by what i know about it. I'd say it'll be just as much fun for me personally, aaaaand better received by the public, yeeeeet it'll get lower scores.

The Atmosphere of Super Metroid IMO is the best in video games

This game is made by the same team that made Super Metroid, so I don't see why you think that the atmosphere will suffer.

You are absolutely right. We don't have enough details to say anything about the game so far. I am pretty sure it will be awesome though. :P

so suddenly your opinion is law? were you crowned as video game overlord? there is going to be an increase in cinematics. there will be more voicework than the cold computer voices of metroid prime. both go against the atmosphere that mp created, which is why know it wont have a similar atmosphere.

Well, it is generally accepted that Super Metroid has an amazing atmosphere, the same goes for Prime. That is why I said IMO about Super having the better atmosphere. I then continued to say that since the team that made Super Metroid (a game that is almost universally accepted to have great atmosphere) is making Other M, then there is no reason to think it won't have top notch atmosphere. This is all I was trying to say

But as others have said, we really don't know enough at all about the game to make any sort of presumptions, but from the developer making the game, atmosphere should be the least of your worries. I did sort of state my post in the wrong way, but that was no reason to freak out on me.

Simply put - the Prime series has proved itself, "Other M" hasn't. I like what I see, but I still have no idea what it's going to be like.

i felt i worded it pretty carefully in my post that implied (without having to type a book's worth of text in my post) that the atmosphere of other m wouldnt necessarily be bad, but it certainly wont have an atmosphere similar to mp.

You said that it needed to make up for the loss of metroid primes atmosphere. I don't think people would disagree that its going to have a different atmosphere. You started running into disagreement when you implied that the atmosphere would not only be different but worse than the prime atmosphere. When you make a statement like that its only natural for people to ask what led you to believe that its atmosphere would suffer from the change because different =/= worse. No one knows whether it will be better or worse, everything is pretty much speculation, but people will be curious when it seems like someone has lept to a conclusion.

i said it was going to be different, and i never said different was worse. i happen to like the atmosphere of mp, which is why i said they would have to make up for it elsewhere. it could be by making a different feeling than mp had throughout the game, or it could be by a new combat system or some other feature. i dont know for sure the angle they are taking (and i also said that in my original post. i really dont know i why i dont just keep quoting my first post instead of saying the same thing different ways), so i didnt elaborate.

i said it was going to be different, and i never said different was worse. I HAPPEN TO LIKE THE ATMOSPHERE OF MP, WHICH IS WHY I SAID THAT THEY WOULD HAVE TO MAKE UP FOR IT ELSEWHERE it could be by making a different feeling than mp had throughout the game, or it could be by a new combat system or some other feature. i dont know for sure the angle they are taking (and i also said that in my original post. i really dont know i why i dont just keep quoting my first post instead of saying the same thing different ways), so i didnt elaborate.

I read your first post and the capitalized line in your most recent post is where the confusion comes in. When you say that they are going to have to make up for something it implies that they are losing ground in that category. I'm sorry for misunderstanding
