Metroid: Other M
« on: August 07, 2010, 10:54:39 pm »

Is anyone else as psyched about this as I am?

european box art (HUEG)

For those unfamiliar, it's the latest Metroid game, set between Super (3) and Fusion (4). Team Ninja (Ninja Gaiden) has helped develop it, so you're getting neither Prime-style FPS nor old-school 2D platforming, but every review-of-a-preview I've read was positive.

I'll definitely be getting my hands on it eventually. A reason to dust off the Wii :)

It's a Metroid game. As long as it's playable, and doesn't reach Fusion levels of retarded with it's plot (three Prime games tell me I don't need to worry about that) then I will love it.

Honestly , we need more well-made MetroidVania style games. I love them lots! :D

I'm excited too, but
just baad Box art.
I'm inclined to agree with that. It looks like fanart drawn with colored pencils.  :-\

The moment the lever was pulled, somebody's pet kitten stepped onto the bridge. I read somewhere that if a cat falls more than 11 stories, it instinctively flares its legs out to increase air resistance. This slows it down enough to stick the landing with relatively minor injuries. In Dwarf Fortress, apparently, cats don't do that.

Meh, it looks okay, I suppose it may be a bit crappy no offence, I think it looks like some sex crazed horny person running around shooting people and then getting raped, maybe... whatever it is, I think it looks uninteresting :P ^_^' Sorry for the criticism >_<

Sorry, just been told Metroid is amazing by Evilgrim so I guess it is, but that just proves how BAD the cover is if it makes it as misleading as this!

Evilgrim is right.

Also, Let me be the first to welcome you to the Bay12games forums.

I know it's unrealistic, but I can't help but imagine little bearded babies for dwarves. In my mind, they come out of the womb fully bearded. That's how the mother carries them around, too, she just drags them around by the beard or ties it to her belt. When the father's on duty, he just ties their beards together and the baby just kind of hangs there, swinging to and fro with Urist McDaddy's movements.

Second, pal. :P

Anyway, is this REALLY the official box art?
Really?

And otherwise, I've not read much of the game.. It seems interesting that Team Ninja's on it.. And yeah..
