Default Metroid Prime 2: Echoes

Small preview (some spoilers):

In this highly anticipated sequel to Metroid Prime, become the bounty hunter behind the visor once more and travel to a planet torn into light and darkness. Hunted by a mysterious entity and a warring race called the Ing, Samus Aran must explore the light and dark worlds of this doomed planet to discover secrets and augment her suit's weapons and abilities.

And now, for the first time in the history of the celebrated Metroid franchise, up to four players can battle each other as they search for weapons, grapple across ceilings, and turn into Morph Balls to make their escapes.


--end spoilers--

Might not be the official title in the end, especially the 'prime' part.

**creams in pants**

oh, baby... i'm in heaven!!!!

Yeah, why would it be called Metroid Prime... The Metroid prime was in the other game, what does it re-appear? Metroid Echoes, sounds like a dead race of somethings ala final fantasy the movie.

COOL!!!!!


wow, the graphics ARE better than the first one!

NEW ONE




OLD ONE

Meh...that might be because that pic is at a higher resolution. But it's still looking great either way.

I don't think he was referring to the grainy nature of the second picture. I think he was referring to the lighting quality in the first one. It's localized and is only cast on certain parts of the pirates' body.

I still say the correct name should be Metroid Double Prime.

No...I think it should be Metroid Pwned....or Metroid Prime : Pwnage.....or maybe they could do some reversal like...Petroid Mime...Emirp DiorteM, or even Diortem Emirp...if it was called any of those, id buy it....but i would be the only one.....

They should do a spin-off computer game to help struggling kids with math, they could call it Metroid Prime: Number...
