It says that its a single player game on ign and i almost never even gave it a thought. I pretty much assumed that it was multiplayer and just realized that its possible that it isn't.

So is that just a mistake on ign or is metroid actually only 1 player?

Backing up GameKing, it's single-player mode. Metroid only works single player anyways; multi-player would ruin it for me. It's not Halo.

yea, i hate when game companies add more features. i mean it ruins the games.

like i loved mario sunshine, but if they gave an option to play as luigi or do a co op mode with mario and luigi...... Game woulda been total crap.

how can adding something extra to a game make it worse? Something thats not incorperated into the game but an extra... :unsure: you guys are weird and just upset that metroid has no multiplayer so you act as if you wouldnt want it anyway :p
hehe

exactly.

adding something. as long as the original part of the game in no way suffers. Can never be a bad thing.

Its not a bad thing, just un needed. And I personaly wouldnt want any form of multiplayer, in say...Zelda.

no?

so if they added a online multiplayer on to zelda where differnt characters could walk around the hyrule world.

or a coop mode where you can play as a differnt character say shiek? and explore a castle or dungeon with your friend?


yea, your right, if they added stuff like that it would suck.


No one said it was needed, But saying it would be a bad thing is completely differnt

I agree with Null...

But maybe that's because co-op games are my favorite types of games... even crappy ones :p

It all started with Double Dragon for me.

I can see adding Multi-player hurting the score of Metroid Prime for visuals, and if it doesn't turn out good it could possibly hurt the score. But would it hurt the game itself? Doubtful.

I dunno, but a Co-op Metroid doesn't sound bad at all.

Co-op all started for me with Streets of Rage 2. Those were the days. As well as Sonic the Hedgehog 2 and 3. And Contra.

I guess co-op is too complex to develop on the modern consoles. :unsure:

BTW, who were you most of the time? Sonic or Tails?

i love co-op and it all started for me with Streets of rage... man i love that game :).... and im gonna have to agree with null... adding something to a game so that it in no way alters the original game can not be bad... eaven if the add-on sucks total ass... it still couldnt hurt the game..

Co-op games are great, I fell in love with them since contra on Nes, double dragons, battle toads, Jakal, Kabow, Roller Games ( these where all on nes)...there's nothing that feels better than you and a buddy playing a game together. :D

*sigh* The good old days

lol... there are some good ones.

Perfect Dark and Timesplitters 2 are great Co-op games... Gauntlet legends is fun (but I like having 4 players the best). Maybe Phantasy star is aight, but it isn't basic enough. Halo is nice too.

I love Co-op games either way though... a lot more than single player, or multi player trying to kill each-other. Maybe because I'm an athlete I'm into that team work type of thing.

BTW, who were you most of the time? Sonic or Tails?

Sonic until I learned how valuable tails was.... then I became a tails that just told Sonic what to do all of the time (nobody else was good at flying)

When I got Super Sonic, I went back to beaing sonic again.
