Pot calling the kettle black, DVDKrayzie.

Back on topic.

OK I'm looking forward to this game. I'll play it at the store and decide if I wanted it. I've been kinda let down with the AAAs so far this year, Fox didn't get a lot of good word of mouth, and Mario has let me down, so hopefully this will be the big comeback of AAAs, or else Zelda will be the last line of defense. If I don't like this or Zelda, then I'm going to seriously examine why I own a GCN.

Well if it makes Trigger feels any better I mainly discredit him due to the fact he has never played Soul Calibur....j/k Trigger no need to go emailing me ok? (again....joking) .

Back on topic, I do hope my store gets this demo. this way I can show everyone (co-workers included) how awesome this game looks and plays. It's hard to keep an open mind about such a drastic change in the series, but I do have high hopes for this game, and I hope the majority of you (I know it's asking a lot) at least give it a try. Even those of us who appear to not like anything, or those or only like one thing. I mean let's not forget why we play video games in the first place...


..because it is fun .

...speaking of Zelda, supposedly Miyamoto is going to remake Ocarina, and Majora's Mask on the GC. OLd news? maybe I dont post here as often as I should... just my 2 cents.

So my question is, How the heck would you know what is going to satisfy core fans if you've never played any of the originals?
I said "I don't think" - I never claimed to "know" - there is a difference. I was just basing that on the general grumblings I had been hearing from Metroid fans. Apparently, alot of them have since warmed up to the idea of it being a FPS. You're welcome to keep digging around hopelessly searching for something to make me look like a hipocryte though if you like... I'm sure you'll find something - nobody here's got clean hands.

Whatever. You jump on people and its okay, but someone says something against you and they are taking cheap shots. I give up.
Look - I'm not going to be dragged down into some personal attack war with you... I haven't reported your posts yet, but you need to lay off... If you want to get yourself suspended, be my guest. I'm not going to play along though. If you really want to give me a piece of your mind, feel free to email it to me...

Being critical of someone and making personal attacks are totally different things.

Here's your link trigger.

IGN

Undoubtedly, Metroid Prime is destined to join the ranks of its predecessors, as one of the all-time greatest videogames ever created.

amen brother! Talk about getting off topic. And now for something different, a post about metroid prime in a MP topic .

I'm still suspicious about the whole change to first person perspective in the game but i'm still gonna give this game a whirl. I'm gonna try my best not to hype it up...but i'm still going to watch the movies of it and play a little bit of the demo. I won't be able to check for this demo until after tuesday unfortunately...thats "if" the store has it. I never play through entire demo's at stores...it seems to weird, i just get a feel for the game. We'll see..
