Rhys from Awesome Games writes: 'Wow. I have to say, Nintendo releasing Metroid Prime Trilogy on the Wii U eShop is one thing, but pricing it at £8.99 in its first week of sale? Even at its now full digital price of £17.99, that’s still a damn good deal considering physical copies tend to go for five times as much on sites like eBay and Amazon. Now, while it’s not a brand new Metroid game we’re dealing with here, being able to acquire three of the best first person adventures around so cheaply just adds to the ever expanding list of reasons to own Nintendo’s glorious gaming box.'
Metroid Prime is a detective game at heart, and the Scan Visor is Samus' trusty magnifying glass.
It's been two decades since Metroid Prime first launched and it still holds up fantastically well.
I can’t believe it’s been 20 years since I bought this for my GameCube! My best friend and I ordered pizza for delivery, it was snowing outside and we stayed in all weekend playing it. Still one of my all time favorite games and I really hope the Switch ports being rumored is true. Fantastic game, one for the ages🙂
With the recent release of Dread, it's time to look back on the history of Metroid and rank the best — and the worst.
Best (for me) would be the first Metroid Prime. It was simply amazing the first time i played it. so deep and challenging while also turning the series completely into something that felt new and fresh.
Worst (for me) is most likely Other M. I can appreciate what they were trying to go for but it just felt flat and played out.
Looking at the rest of the list, I never played Federation Force but i have played the rest. Pinball is still one of my favorites to play now and then.
Nope sorry. The original is still the best in the trilogy. I'm playing through all three again and it's got more detail and is paced just perfectly.
