The new Metroid Prime

User Rating: 8.9 | Metroid Prime 2: Echoes GC
The new GC Metroid Prime is probably the Metroid that disappoints most players. But don't get me wrong just because it was a little lower than what I (and maybe some of you guys) expected dosen't mean that this game is not fun. Many people were hyped about this after Nintedo said it would add Multiplayer to MP2:E. It was a big let down however, the games took no skill what so ever. It was just lock-on and shoot. And if they morph into a ball (to escape your lock-on), you just hit Lock-On (L) again. The new "unique ammo system" just dosen't feel Metroid anymore where you have to hunt for ammo or else you have to use the power beam. But wait! What about the good things? The new light and dark beam creates a unique way to kill enemies (light beam affects dark enemies more and vice versa) The screw jump ability which was missing in the first MP is back in the second. Enemies now have to ability to shake of your lock-on which makes fighting much more entertaining. However dissapointing MP2:E was, it was still great. If you're a GC owner without MP2:E you are deprived.
