I fixed it. The link works. You just have to click on the images that way.
I'm with Dryn, what stereotype is that?
I personally like Melee's character models better than Brawl's, actually, so...
Okay...well if you don't care about graphics, why is it that "improve upon itself" is only about the graphics?
Look, a LOT of people bashing '08ers aren't/weren't kidding. You can't accuse us of any sort of failure to sense a joke especially since it's the internet...you can't even detect sarcasm most of the time, much less a joke.
You said "does anyone else", whereas if you had looked a page back you would see that there was at least one other person who did.
Ignorance like this annoys me, if you would look back a page or two you would see that I've actually been skeptical about it. I am by no means expecting the game to be perfect, but all of the graphics complaints are just pissing me off. It's repetitive, it's not a big deal, and it's not coming out in a week.
You didn't play Prime 2, did you?
I second it as far as Galaxy 2 goes (but please let's not bring that argument into here), but it's not really true about most of their games. Most of the games are just waggle-fests.
Mmhm, not improving in graphics definitely means it's the same game.
You make a very good point with this...
fusion was AWESOME for speed running. i have an hour and 8 minute 1% speed run on it :D
So the stereotype of some 06'ers being A holes hold some truth as well? Way to make your argument valid.
That's common knowledge, but one must put nostalgia as a factor.
And a sequel of what I ask?
I'm sorry that you had to come out of nowhere and say your oppressing us. Way to make another awesome point for your argument.
You know, I heard some thing about this being a new engine, ya know? You know I heard it isn't rehashing the old engines ya know?
Pray tell, where are these numbers you speak off?
Obviously some one needs to do their homework before presenting it to the class.
Please tell me how a Side stroller went First Person Adventure to 3rd Person combat is the same thing?
i would love to hear some reasons whyWow. I really have never seen this level of fanboyism before.
The game looks like garbage as of now - and I'm fully aware that it's too early to judge on the final game. But just take it as it is people: the game the trailer is advertising now looks like garbage right now.
Because I played this game when the Gamecube was released.
This isn't a sequel to anything. It's an all new game being done with new developers with a new engine in a completely new style. It's only just been announced, is clearly still in development, so I think comparing it to a game that had been in development for ages (was originally supposed to be for the 64) is a bit unfair. It'd be comparing a todler who can just walk to his father, a marathon runner. It's ridiculous.
Learn what's funny.
Oh? that's funny because I don't remember a Metroid coming out last year, or even announced. I haven't heard of one coming out this year. There wasn't one during 2005 or 2006 either. Also, how is this, a game that is in a completely unique style and approach "the same game with a different number at the end of the title"?
Perhaps it's ironic (or posibly hypocritical) of me to defend the Metroid games while also agreeing that SMG2 is a lazy effort, but you really can't see the difference between the Primes? Yes they used the same controls (with some exceptions) and the same perspective, and afaik, the same engine, the game's differed quite a lot. Prime 2 had new enemies with a cool setup of them being able to morph into "goo" and zoom around when under fire, great bossfights, Dark Samus, new powerups and weapons, had the first(or second? When did First Hunt come out?) multiplayer, new mechanics (canons, Screw Attack, changing things in different dimentions) It was very different to MP1.
Well to be fair, it does seem to be taking a different direction from FPS, so you can't really call it a clone of Metroid Prime. All the gameplay footage was in third person, save for a brief moment when she uses the ice beam. There seems to be a greater emphasis on physical interaction with enemies as well, although it remains to be seen whether or not those were just scripted sequences or actual moves.
Adam was most certainly alive at the time of Zero Mission. If you don't interpret it that way, then you haven't read the MZM manga. Furthermore, and this is important, Samus had already left the GF by Zero Mission, meaning that no amount of insignia would have meant anything afterword.
I've read the manga. I'm very selective on what is and what is not canon in the manga, and I'm not alone when it comes to this. Infinity's End, an administrator of the site you linked, shares my sentiment.
Yeah, we're to blame for not understanding sarcasm without seeing your facial expression or body language, or hearing your tone as we read your post.
Yeah, Metroid Prime was DEFINITELY at ALL similar to the gameplay footage we've seen thus far. MAYBE graphics-wise, but it's even a different style. I really don't understand this...
Out of curiosity, why? I know I've seen nothing in the manga that conflicts with the games put out thus far. Indeed, most of the story in the games is reinforced by the manga. After all, Yoshio Sakamoto advised on the writing of the story, so I can't imagine it being off on something as pivotal as putting the right characters in the right places at the right times.
That would be me if you'd want to call me out on my....... whatever you think I did stupidly.
Then you probably haven't played very many Metroid games.
I got 1 thru 3 and hunters and zero mission and i played super metriod. Theres no challenge when it comes to fighting the aliens because theres only a few. I was just playing prime and like 3 space pirates appears at a time. I want at least 20 - 30 at a time for a challenge. Oh the vacuum part on prime 3 where you shoot the space pirates into the vortex thingy. Like only three of them were on the ground at a time. SO SHUT UP WEENIE!
Gah, YOU again? Please, try to CONTRIBUTE to threads and not **** on them.
Not to dash your hopes or anything (seeing as I would love this to happen too...), but unless they put some really ****ed up stuff in the storyline, that would be impossible. Zebes was destroyed at the end of Super Metroid, remember? And Mother Brain's appearance is nearly guaranteed to be just a flashback CG, seeing as it shows Mother Brain firin' its lazar at the last Metroid in existence; once again like the end of Super Metroid. However, I do admit that the planet she's on looks a lot like Zebes, and the monsters that she's fighting look like those from Zebes as well. Maybe a 'sister' planet or something? If so, then I'll be happy. I always loved the look.
Diffuse lighting effects beg to differ.
Di...did you just call me a weenie?
I can't imagine that it's a flashback, though...I mean, on one hand it makes sense, but from how Samus looks, it HAS to be earlier than straight after Super Metroid. But, as far as that goes, I'd say it's most likely that the game starts with the end of Super Metroid, and then the game is a flashback.Not to dash your hopes or anything (seeing as I would love this to happen too...), but unless they put some really ****ed up stuff in the storyline, that would be impossible.

there is something in the trailer that looks a lot like it could be a metroid though(not talking about the crocomire esque lava creature, the one shown after samus is shooting kihunters). doesn't look like any previous version but every game adds like 20 mutations for no real reason <_< looks a *little* like a zeta metroid but more like a four legged creature
Aha, yes! That's what I meant! Not flashback, but....idk. Opening sequence CG? I guess that's what you would call it. And they have actually already determined that this game is going to be post-Super Metroid pre-Metroid Fusion (or so it was said in interviews). However, from the different CGs that they have in this game, along with some of the creatures they're fighting (such as the Zeta Metroid that etecoon mentioned, which I didn't notice the first four or five times I watched it), I could also see them including two playable timelines going on within the game; one being a flashback to pre-Zero Mission when she's still part of the Federal Police Force (which explains the majority of the enemies she faces in the video, and the Zebes-like look of the planet she's on), and one that is also post-Super Metroid. As for how that would work and where they'll take her post-SM, I can't tell. They don't really show anything in there that hints toward flashbacks or the likes of anything post-SM.
Firus this is a guy who called Metroid, not metroid prime, a First person shooter.
I also took the liberty of taking out his censor dodging...yes.
You knew what metroid series i was talking about. What a freak. You been stalking my posts. What a weenie.
Stalking your posts? Don't you mean looking at the thread and seeing them, and then reading them?
Your right but if you were conversating about ninja gaiden i wouldnt refer to the original side scrolling one. Id think you were talking about the the most recent games. I dont add all the extras cuz im on the wii internet.
Your right but people complain when i call em other stuff which is pretty lame. They need to take the criticism after they dish it out.
