No I mean all jokes aside Metroid Prime Remastered is one of the best offerings on the Switch and regardless of your feeling in the game name, this game is worth your time.If you are looking for the perfect easy gift for yourself, your boyfriend or girlfriend for the any special day, THIS IS IT!ĭo you love retro gaming? Do you miss the old art gaming magazines used to feature? Now you can have that captured on your wall forever! This is a direct copy of an Power magazine ad from 1999! This was to advertise the coming of Metroid Prime for the Gamecube. Looking back at the previous game you can see just how much work went into this and the controls alone make it more accessible, plus you have many options for the controls so it caters to new and old players and those that like it a bit weird. I initially liked the way you scan anything and everything to get lore, story and weak point info but that did begin to grind and at times I felt like I was a photographer/caltaloguer on safari taking kill enemy breaks in between but eventually I let go of the scanning and just went all guns all the time. The guns are fun to use, the platforming makes sense and is exciting and boss fights, yes boss fights are even a ton of fun. The world’s they have created are vast and open meaning I could explore a lot before a roadblock would stop me. As this was a twin stick shooter in 3D I thought it may appeal to me more than the 2D offerings… I was correct, from the moment the game began I was hooked with its powerful visuals and tight gunplay, I found myself losing hours to Metroid. Having not played the game much originally I did have a bit of hesitation with Metroid as I have a past of not really enjoying the games.
