From videos I've seen, it has to do a lot with the storyline.
Also, when the game was announced, I swear it was "Metroid: The Other M". Did they change it? Or did I just make that up?
I don't expect sheep to admit 'Other M' as being a silly name. They were also the ones defending the 'Wii' as not being a silly name.

I'm manticore, TYVM. :roll:
It makes sense "If you know what it means it is smart, it is for another creature starting with M other than Metroids. The creature is called Mother so that also works well." When its explained to you...I don't expect sheep to admit 'Other M' as being a silly name. They were also the ones defending the 'Wii' as not being a silly name.

When its explained to you... That's like those people who say Metal Gear Solid is fine, because "Metal Gear" is the enemy and you're "Solid" Snake. Doesn't matter if you can relate the title to the game in some way, it still sounds dumb.Let's first play the game and then decide. Japanese games have really weird names, like all the time. But this one..
Unlike most here, i really like the MOM acronym for a Samus game :D

Doesn't matter if you can relate the title to the game in some way, it still sounds dumb. I thought it was called that because it was the first polygonal Metal Gear, hence 'Solid'.Here's an idea, why don't they call it Metroid: Origins? Or Metroid: Evolution?
How about Metroid: Electric Boogaloo? Metroid: Metroid Harder?
Or how about just a number? Metoird 4/5/6/7/whichever number it technically is in the timeline? Seriosuly, the name is at least something different, and it does peak my interest, unlike some generic sequel title.
[QUOTE="Episode_Eve"][QUOTE="akbar13"] Machinarium!akbar13Sorry TC, I agree with Treal that MOM is cool! But I think we can all agree that Machinarium is extra, super-duper cool 8). I was commenting on how he has Machinarium in his sig. One of the greatest games of this gen. But the name is also a really good one. I know you love Machinarium :D. I was just saying that I disagreed with you on the idea that Metroid Other M was a bad name (in-effect, agreeing with Treal). Though you seem to have warmed up to MOM lol. We all agree that Machinarium is amazing though. One of my fav. games of last year... still haven't beaten it yet.

I wouldn't say ever. But untill we know exactly what the hell the name portrays, I have to say yes, it is a very... um... unimaginative name: it sucks!
[QUOTE="Cherokee_Jack"][QUOTE="buuzer0"]I don't know if it will be safe for Samus to go morph-ball while pregnant... Unless her baby is a metroid.locopathoThis is starting to sound like a really bad fanfic. Or a really good one? In some circles...
The name doesn't really bug me. As long as the game is enjoyable, they can call it "Metroid: Banana Republic Laser Beam Extravaganza" for all I care.
I can't tell if you are being serious or not... you do realize that there are huge maternal overtones to the game right? The Acronym for mom was either a huge coincidence (unlikely) or largely intended (very likely). Not to mention, who said the M meant metroid... Perhaps it means Mother? :o unfathomable!Metroid Other M. Seriously. Other M. That is just the dumbest video game title for a game ever. It doesn't look right whenever you write it and it doesn't sound right whenever you say it.
And the acyonym... MOM. MOM.
Metroid Other M - MOM.
Does anyone else agree that the name is stupid?akbar13
