I'm definently going to play it now... buuut... like I said before I'm a huge fan of Metroid, but I'm not a fan of Super Metroid (and I think it has to do with Age)

There is not much room for dissapointment for me, cause I'm not expecting much.... maybe it will win me over though.

I don't know what to expect from the game either. Coz I didn't play Metroid much, but either way I'm definitely going to buy it from the 2 reviews I have read

I need $50 by next Thurs./Fri.! But alas, I don't expect to have it. I guess I will have to wait a little longer to buy it.

Last time I checked, you were ONLY renting the game if it got over 9.5

With the kind of experience the series offers, running through the game on ONE rental(even if possible) wouldn't uncover half the secrets the game has to offer. Thus, limiting your experience.

Looks like a certain sucker may have to buy the game after all the smack they laid down.

First step to owning Metroid Prime, is to *cough* RE-purchase a GameCube *cough*

Man, I can't tell you how good it feel to be on your case. If I knew it was this gratifying, I'd have done it earlier.

*Laughs at The Game cause it just feels oh so good*


all together boys! ---> ... ... ...

ROFL D-Real... you are such a loser

Where in my last post did I say I would buy or even rent it? I said I will PLAY it... now please do like Jericho sais, and SHUT THE HELL UP

From other topic:
Quote:
I'm not saying:

"The game is crap because I played the demo, and I will never givce it another run"

Depending on the scores, chances are I will give the real game a go... but for now based off of the previews, and the Demo, I see nothing special about this game.
So shut your role and know your mouth... or erm, know your role and shut your mouth

Actually if I recall correctly you said you'd consider renting it if it got 9.5 or over Of course you changed your post now so I can't prove it, but I have a good memory. That's when I thought "If any game got 9.5 and over, I'd definitely look into it".

oh yeh I forgot

The Legend of Zelda OoT got 10, and there are some other games that MIGHT have scored higher than 9.8 but I'm not sure.

N64:
Super Mario 64 - 9.8
Perfect Dark - 9.8
Zelda: Majora's Mask: 9.9
Conkers Bad Fur Day - 9.9
Zelda: Ocarina Pf Time - 10

DC:

Tony Hawk - 9.8
Soul Calibur - 10

A great man once told me (actually, just some guy from another message board): Metroid Prime with multiplayer is like Saving Private Ryan with rail guns and plasma cannons.

I think he means that it does not fit the story well enough.

It wouldnt be incorperated into the story tho.... just a side thing... if you wanna play it, then play it and have fun with it if you dont then dont... adding multiplayer to the game can in no way alter it for the worse.. simple as that
