lol, well, if you liked it to that point there is no opinion I could give you to make you thnk any different. Personally, for a game that got damn near perfect reviews, I found the begining to be the lamest excuse for a game ever.
Keep in mind, I'm a fan of sports, fighting, Racing, and FPS games... meaning I'm also a fan of instant action and satisfaction. If a game offers less than instant action, and any less than pulling me deep into the story from the gate, I won't like the game, period.
I can hang with long games like FFX and Xenogears and Zelda because they get me wrapped up into the storyline, and at the same time offer fun gameplay. While Metroid from the gate offerd neither to me.
I have heard many times "Keep playing deeper into the game, then you will like it!" If I don't like how the game feels, or the story, I have no reason to move any farther into a game. In metroid's case I dislike the concept, gameplay, and story, so in conclusion I don't like the game.
I rented it twice, and even got it for free with my new platnum GCN, and it never once made me crack a smile or entertain me to the least bit. Just my opinion.
