Much better than I thought it would be. Lot's of action and intense battles.
Definitely different than the previous FPS versions of the series but nothing is lost as far as great Metroid game play is concerned. The story is actually not so bad as most people think. The voice acting of Samus is ... Read Full Review

good game, but doesn't live up to the metroid series
I was dying for this one to come out. the old school look of the third person view was the best idea ever but... this game is hardly metroid. it is almost entirely linear. the save stations are more like checkpoints ... Read Full Review

A big disapointment ... Combat is totaly disjointed ... Controls silly.
I was looking forward to this game. And I am quite disappointed. The first problem is the lack of control precision. Hold the remote sideways and then stop dead in your tracks to aim while they are shooting at you. Reple... Read Full Review

a different but great Metroid experience
STORY: Metroid Other M takes place right after Super Metroid, and at the beginning of the game we witness the final battle of Super Metroid again, only this time in the form of a nicer looking 3D cutscene, and this time ... Read Full Review

While not a flawless game it's a strong, beautiful, addictive and pleasant title that you can't miss.
Alright, let's cut to the chase, the first thing that caught my mind was the resemblance to MGS for PSOne, from the movements and soliton radar to the elevator ambush scene, coincidence? you be the judge. Visuals are ... Read Full Review

"Lets make a Metroid game, but take away all the exploration"-Pitchman "Brilliant!"-Corporate Exec
Metroid Other M was one of my top 3 most hyped games of the year. When I saw this game shown for that first time at E3 I was blown away. After playing the game for the past 8 or 9 hours, that feeling has gone away. At fi... Read Full Review

A surprisingly great game that didn't disappoint. A few flaws, but a well rounded addition to the Metroid series.
Like everyone else who bought Metroid: Other M, I was very excited for a true Metroid sequel that would follow up the great Super Metroid from 16 years ago. Still to this day I give Super Metroid a perfect 10 and the onl... Read Full Review

A disastrous waste of time.
I'm not sure where to start with how much I disliked this game. The exploration has been stripped away. You follow a straight line from beginning to end. The controls are sloppy, annoying, sluggish and overly simplistic.... Read Full Review
