[QUOTE="mitu123"][QUOTE="kage_53"]Avoid the second one. It's horrible imo. It has to be one of the worst sequels of all time HarlockJC
Worse than Zelda II?

Zelda 2 is one of the best Zelda games

Not to me, even Twilight Princess was better than that.

[QUOTE="Next-Gen-Tec"][QUOTE="IronBass"] Miyamoto was only a supervisor. He didn't design anything on MP.Episode_Eve
But he was there... his presence was enough motivation for them to make a masterpiece.

Took the words out of my mouth. That's primarily his role now-a-days. And passing his skills to his subordinates lol. Nomura!

His input alone can inspire and he has a talent of taking a design that's in production and rethinking it to make it better, more fun, and/or balance. I'm sure he was more invloved in Metroid Prime 1 than he was 2&3. Or at least it feels that way. MP1 was just so ahead of it's time.

Actually he was the producer: http://cube.ign.com/articles/377/377563p1.html

If they remake it again on the next Wii (with better HD graphics) I will buy it again.

[QUOTE="yoshi_64"][QUOTE="Episode_Eve"] Well, coming off of what was arguably the best game last gen sure. But the game wasn't THAT bad! It's great actually.Episode_Eve

I felt the first game left such high expectations after how amazing it was, the second seemed disappointing. Frankly, I feel the only arguments I had against the game were it's terrible idea to implement ammo into the game. It felt like to me it was just limiting, and to be frank I missed my weapons like Plasma and Wave Beam from the first game :( but it wasn't bad at all. I enjoyed MP 2 quite a lot, but I will say it's the lowest of the three in terms of which one I enjoyed with MP 1 and MP 3 being nearly tied, but MP 1 still is superior IMO cause MP 3 felt a little like "Halo" and you had less of a feeling of being alone whereas MP 1 just nailed the atmosphere.

Completely agree. But you know the only ammo was for missiles which were used in conjunction with beams and bombs as well for super weapons! You always had to scavenge for missles in the Metroid series. Still perfect :P.

Oh I loved using the ammo for super attacks. I was in awe when I realized I could make a Flamethrower with my Plasa :D then I was in glee using Super Mega Power shots too. :D Though the idea to limit the Weapons to ammo in MP 2 just didn't feel right. Also since the third weapon used both, it made me conserve my weapons and just stick to the Power Beam for like 90% of the game, using the dark/light beams just for puzzles or other necessities.

[QUOTE="Next-Gen-Tec"]Nintendo's answer to Orange Box, and it's a damn good answer.yoshi_64
I wonder if the game's MP mode in MP 2 will be more enjoyable. I think the reason it sucked so much was cause you could lock-on to people thus elminating any skill. MP H was a fun game on the DS, and showed Metroid MP could be fun, but MP 2 was limited due to controls. I'm not saying it should play like "Halo" or anything but it seems like it could be fun now or at least more fun than on the GC. :P Also... is it me or are these forums screwy again? While typing in the quick quote/reply if I push space or backspace it acts like my cursor isn't in the textfield and then it jumps down like if I pushed Space in the browser, or it goes back like I pushed Backspace without being in a textfield... :|

The ign article says that multiplayer is alot more enjoyable, that it's actually good. So here's hoping it does hold up. :)

I loved each prime game, beautiful games through and through. Having them all in one collection is awesome, it's good to see that nintendo won't be just releasing them under new play control for 30 bucks a peace.

I own all three and have beaten all three! But, i love them so much that i'd be willing to add this collection of games to my library. I'd love a reason to replay the trilogy.

i guess this is cool if you never played the MP's before, but ive been a die hard nintendo fan for the longest time....until about a year after the wii was out and saw that nintendo just wanted to create games for my grandma. anyway, if you never played these games (which is the audience they are going for) thats cool....but dang it....where is the NEW content. i want NEW games, not remakes of old games. i know mario, zelda, dk, etc are all awesome, but wheres the NEW stuff????

Well, my brother "lent out" MP3 on me, and I never actually owned MP2(but I played it and got fairly far), and I liked MP3's controls, so this would be nice to get. Maybe I'll put off selling my Wii. =)

I know it is asking a lot of Nintendo but if they can fix the MP mode for MP2...Would Nintendo make it so we could play online? This is Nintendo so my 8 ball says "NO". But we can hope.

Wow, now that is a nice deal. Makes me wonder if they'll do the same for some other gamecube games. I wouldn't mind a Windwaker/Twilight Princess or Star Fox combo.

I wish we were also getting a Pikmin trilogy (1,2 and the soon to be 3) but i think new play versions have already been released.

Anyway this is up there with The Orange Box and Super Mario All-stars as the best gaming deals. All i need from it is MP2 so im going to buy this pack in a few years when its dirt cheap.

Must have for people who havent played it or people thinking of getting a Wii.

EDIT: :cry::cry::cry: Just reminded my self that MGS:Essentials never released over here :cry:

Thats pretty cool I guess. I wonder if they will have a deal where you can trade in your copy of MP3(if you have it) when you buy MPT and you get a coupon that saves you like say 10 to 20 dollars. That would be sweet lol.

I played/beat MP1 on the GC and loved it...

I played/beat MP3 on the Wii but sold it.....

For some reason MP2 didnt interest me, but since I am currently Metroid deficient I will buy this when it releases...

Didn't have a GCN last gen, so never played the first 2. Considering the great value, this is a definite pickup for me!!

Not only did it have backstory out the wazoo, it had a story with a proper ending. It wasn't just like every other Metroid game. There was actually a narrative worth paying attention to that was delivered in a very non-traditional way.

I think the main reason why so many people hate Echoes is because its not like Prime. All they wanted was just another Super-Metroid-in-3D remake and weren't expecting a game to take everything Prime did well and put a new spin on it.

That and the setting was nothing like any other Metroid game. Sanctuary Fortress was probably the best place in any Metroid game... even greater than those in Super Metroid.

I just dont like it as much cause the whole light anddark world back and forth. It made the game a headace for me and felt more like a choir then fun.
