After playing MP3 for about 15 hours...

Honestly, I can't see how console shooters can stay the same.

Everything, works, perfectly. I started the game and from the first firefight I actually could target and keep my reticule on the enemy while strafing fully. It was like, playing with the accuracy of the RE4:Wii controls, but... BUT ON METROID AND WHILE MOVING. I get urges to play it just to shoot at things. It's that pleasuring.

I know technically it flopped here, but since when do I let one person decide my feelings on a game. The game itself is polished to the point of blindness after long exposure in the sun. The fights feel great. (Normal difficulty could be harder, but they included a harder mode that I haven't gotten to as of late) The puzzles are still challenging and actually like, fun to see the results of. Graphics are shiny and still feel really good. (I really don't care about how my games look past being able to tell pixels apart.)

Anyway, onto the point of the thread.

Mircosoft cannot ignore this. The Wii controls are accurate to the point where non-gamers might be able to actually play well. (Assuming they can deal with strafing and pointing. This is hard for non-gamers.) I'm going to guess by 2010 Mircosoft will have to come up with a similar IR system, or something that rivals the Wii's accurate, intuitive pointing system. No amount of good gameplay can make up for knowing that there is a better control scheme on a "inferior" console. Honestly if there is a multi-platform FPS on the Wii and Xbox360, 360 owners won't have a snowballs chance in hell.

I think you maybe be going a bit far but indeed the controls are incredibly good.Ollivander

Last week I tried playing Halo 2 with some friends.

Dual Analogs felt so very weird.

I still kicked ass though.

the wii only has like 2fps games out and i can already can say that regarding controls....

Shooting real guns is hard kid.

Halo takes more skill , like real shooting.

Apparently holding a plastic controller with two hands is more gunlike then holding a plastic controller with one, while pointing and pulling a trigger.

It's his logic.

Thats right. Spread the truth to the masses.

MP is an utter flop and the controls contributed to that.

You wait and see what a real shooter game scores.

I feel the same way about Skate. I just played it for 10 hours straight and it feels perfect. (not that it has anything to do with shooting, just wanted to mention how great it is :P)Heith

Yeah, I loved the demo. Me and my buddies loved the Tony Hawk games (back in the Tony Hawk 1,2, and 3 days....after that it got kinda stale) but this totally redefines this (IMO dying) genre.

Auto aim ?

You mean I can just put the controller down and it will aim for me ?

Yippie !

i choked on my chips when i read it

The controls on metroid are ok but its that damn repetative gameplay that kills it for me.Im so sick of this damn game i could throw up,going back and fourth,back and fourth,back and fourth.Im so sick of back tracking and having to go back to the same place 80 times before being able to move to something new.I spent most of the time lost.I think i was about half way through elisia before i sold it.God i really dont have the patients for this crap anymore.Just give me a simple fun multiplayer shooter that doesnt require me walking around for 6 hours looking for a damn switch and ill be happy.loudharley

o-o

Compared to the last games, this one is light on backtracking.

You must not have the resolve or the problem solving skill that I do I guess.

MP has always sucked and some last gen Xavix controls won't help it.

I dont like the Metroid Games..ive never played any of them but I dont like Sci-Fi FPS games, and watching videos on metroid 3 I personally think it looks kind of pathetic...

I really wish I liked my Wii though :(....there just arent any good games IMO, last game I bought was Super Paper Mario a looong time ago, played it for like 3 days and got bored..

Havnt touched it since....Im starting to think it was a waste of money....

[QUOTE="channtheman1"]I need a real dual analog controller.Jandurin

Actually yes I have been around during the SNES era anyway, too young for NES though. But obviously what I meant was for first person shooters and I don't like holding my hand out in front of me was the main thing I was getting at. If you can understand what I'm trying to say.

After playing cs on a computer I honestly don't know why console fps games don't make keyboards and mouse standard, mouse can't be beat when it comes to reaction time and doesn't require auto aiming, the wiimote is a decent new way to play fps, but I got metroid in the mail Monday and I thought the controls were simply ok at best. There's no big deal really, its like playing duck hunt except you can move using the nunchuck I didn't see the big deal.7CloudStrife7

Because WASD movement is inferior to analog control dude.
