I can't wait for Metroid: Other M. I'm not making any decisions until I play it. Maybe they will be so different that you can't compare them.

Unfortunately, you can compare any two things to each other in System Wars. See: topics comparing Metal Gear Solid to Halo.

Granted it does look very impressive and it has the serious tone needed for a Metroid game. One thing that caught me off-guard was the "Motherbrain ending sequence from Super Metroid" that they showed off in the trailer, AWESOME indeed.


Will it beat Metroid Prime? Possibly the third one but few to none games can beat echoes and the original Prime installment. One thing I find lacking is the much less focus on exploration and atmosphere which made me fall in love with Metroid in the beginning. All this I think is a result of Nintendo pushing the franchise into a more mainstream appealing serie, which of course I don't like at all.

No Metoid game will ever be as good as Metroid Prime. That is honestly one of my favorite games of all time.

It probably won't be as good as the Primes, but it will sure as hell be good.

the original metroid prime blew me away. From what I see of Other M, it has some great story lines and artistic flare, but almost zero chance of matching the impact that MP had on me. I say that Other M will be better than MP2 and 3 though

Can't really tell yet. Prime is our only 3D metroid experience. So far, the one thing that really has me excited about Other M is the fact that Samus actually moves in game like she does in the Prime cut-scenes and in the manga. Also, Other M has one thing that Prime can never match. Laser noogies. You can't beat laser noogies as an attack option.

I certainly hope so, its definitely possible. But no Metroid game will ever be as good as the masterpiece that was Super Metroid

Tough call as to whether this Metroid will be a great game or not, but I probably won't be bored out of my skull.

I don't think so. Prime was an outstanding game, and the sequel was also excellent. Not touched 3 though.
