  • A fun and innovative game with impressive graphics engaging story and a good combination of nostalgic nods and modern game play.
  • Long cut scenes and mid-game controller flipping that will greatly frustrate some gamers.

  • Fun exploration-based mechanics; an interesting story (once it ramps up).
  • First-person mode feels woefully forced and unnecessary, resulting in uneven gameplay.

  • Abstract:  Ever since its 16-bit rivalry with Sega, a company that promoted an “edgier”, more violent form of gaming, Nintendo has been unable to shed its public image as a “kiddy” game developer.But it certainly wasn’t for lack of trying; ever since ...

  • Abstract:  Metroid: Behind the Mask.It truly has been a long ride. The Metroid series is definitely one of Nintendo's most prominent series among the core gaming crowd. Super Metroid is still considered one of the best games of all time in many circles. Still whe...

  • Abstract:  I beat Metroid: Other M on Saturday night and instantly sat down to write a very negative, raw, emotional review of what had turned out to be a very disappointing game. The next day, however, I sat down with it again and discovered that, bizarrely, it ...

  • I played through the first few hours of Metroid Other M seriously questioning the direction of Nintendo’s latest title. The game felt quite different from previous Metroid titles with somewhat awkward controls. Yet, as I continued to play I realized it...

  • Abstract:  Often when I look at the cool toys today's youth gets to play with, I think of how great it must be to be a kid today. It's a feeling only enhanced when I focus my sights on today's videogames. Games today are so much more immersive, so much more sea...

  • A solid, action packed addition to the Metroid franchise; while it isn't always successful, the attempt to delve into Samus' persona was also welcome.
