I maintain you're rather swass, particularly compared to certain hyper-choads. Either way, you've definately got a Posse on Broadway.

8.5 is probably the highest score he's ever given a game."
Is this true?
paul777 said:Backtracking is inevitable in hub world-based games. It happens in GTA, it happens in Zelda. The only way to get rid of it is to completely change that characteristic of the game into level-based. Problem is, Metroid is not a level-based game. Never has been, never will be.

Matlock said:Pfft, man. Get something of Jigen. You know you want to.
Matlock said:Pfft, ruin a theme why don't ya?
Jagernaut said:How about adding the ability to teleport from one save point to another (as long as you have visited it before)? That way you can minimize the backtracking without removing it. I enjoyed Metroid Prime, but backtracking in 1st person is a lot slower and more boring than in the 2d games.

Screenboy said:^The problem is that Retro have actually done the unimaginable by making a decent game out of a FPS game using the Metroid franchise.
Everyone wanted Retro to fail and even I had my doubts, but what they've done is create an amazing game with the Metroid franchise.
People can't accept it, won't accept it and stop other from doing so.
Nintendo in genral make good games, but it wasn't Nintendo that created this, it was Retro.
And next week, it will be mine.

Raoul Duke said:Conclusion the Fourth: I won't be buying Metroid Prime 2. Mostly because I sold my gamecube today to finance some new games.
Raoul Duke said:Conclusion the Third: The purpose of a Nintendo fan is to flip out and scream at people over the internet when real or imagined(mostly imagined) slights are "inflicted" upon their precious company.

GameEurope or Eurogamer gave Halo 2 an 8. DEATH THREATS POURED IN! IT SCREWED UP TEH GAMERANKINGS TOTALS! IT WAS SUPPOSED TO BE BETTER THAN OCARINA OF TIME!!>!
SantaCruZer said:thank you. No fan group is better or worse. It's the same.
Raoul Duke said:Nintendo fans are by far the worst. Xbox fanboys are rapidly catching up, it must be noted.
Honestly, has it ever occurred to you that maybe you'd be better off just enjoying each great game that came along and not giving a shit which system, developer or company was involved? Enjoy the finished product or don't, but don't be a fucking cheerleader for a videogame company. That's insane to me.

AniHawk said:I can't understand that, but I can understand people not wanting certain franchises/game series to die. I think a lot of Nintendo fans are looking at what happened to Sega, and feel that it would be a far worse thing to go third party than to limp along for how many more generations and hopefully experience the last and finest games of those series.
If Iwata makes good on his threat/promise to just go all out ala DBZ and spend the war chest to stay afloat/get back in instead of going third party, then great. But if they go third-party, Nintendo will still be extremely profit-minded, and will have to let many people go as their main source of income will be gone. This means truly half-assed Mario and Zelda games. I'm not talking Wind Waker or Mario Sunshine types, I'm talking Vexx or Spyro (now).
snapty00 said:I don't think Sega's turn to third-party was its downfall. Sega's games started sucking overall WAY before that happened. For all the hoopla and mindless raving about Sega's Dreamcast games, they sure did suck. Sure they were "quirky" or maybe even "innovative" to some small degree, but they weren't fun. Sega's sucky games on Dreamcast was just as much a part of the console's failure as any other component.
nitewulf said:it was a lack of 3rd party stuff that killed it ultimately.
pffffft.AniHawk said:At least Capcom tried, though.
It's weaker in a few areas and leaves some of its predecessor's flaws uncorrected. But it also shares many of its unique strengths, which are more than enough to justify seeing it through to the end.
See, I think you're missing my point.SantaCruZer said:exactly, That's what I am afraid. I was a HUGE Sega fan when I was a kid, I loved the Master System, I loved the Genesis, I loved Wonderboy etc. But damn SEGA is not what I remember them to be...I have a feeling that Nintendo is walking slowly the same path.
Their Mario and Zelda games have taken a small dive latley, and we don't need them to get worse. Nintendo needs to succed with their new Zelda.

Visual Concepts, owned by Sega but then again not really the same as if it came from Sega of Japan.floigan brothers?
OK, just another average Sega fighter but not terrible. Not released in the U.S. anyhow.fighting vipers 2?
Hey, it wasn't that bad.crazy taxi 2?
Not Sega, those were developed by General Entertainment.both of those godzilla games?
That list don't qualify as plenty...there were plenty of shitty sega games on dreamcast.
