An appropriately updated revisitation of a time-honored classic.
The now semi-controversial additional play area towards the end was cool as an addition, but lets face it, running around unable to really attack was anything but fun. On the plus side, if you complete the game entirely, you unlock the original metroid game as well. So it's like a 2 in 1. So what are you waiting for anyway? Try this game out, or at least look a little further into it. If you're a fan of the Metroid series, this is seriously for you. If you're a fan of good games, this should please you as well.
