This original take on the Metroid series fails to deliver the pace and gameplay of it's predecessors.
Being an avid Metroid fan, there are certain expectations one would expect from a Metroid series. Unfortunately, Other M fails to deliver in many of these areas. Largely, Other M just isn't anywhere near as fun to play... Read Full Review

Review for Metroid other M 8.0/10 Warning Some spoilers
Game play 8/10 The Good: Solid non-waggle controls, all the upgrades are fun to use, and the boss fights are tough but far from unfair (plus some bosses have awesome finishing moves), Samus acts more like a Ninja tha... Read Full Review

Loved every moment of it. Felt just like playing Super Metroid but in 3D.
Controls were smooth. I didn't have any problem with the 2d to first person aiming. Got the hang of it pretty easily. Gameplay was great with that slight Ninja Gaiden fast movement. Loved the boss fights as well. Sure th... Read Full Review

Feels like less violent Ninja Gaiden but insanely easy and linear.
I am a huge Metroid fan but this game just felt to much like Ninja Gaiden and not enough like Metroid. I was very excited when I heard it would be like Super Metroid, it is not. The graphics are ok, but the movies are... Read Full Review
