CGV Posted October 19, 2009 Share Posted October 19, 2009 Let us talk about this awesome looking game I can't remember when it comes out, but I want it NAOW! anyway, discuss Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ike-Mike Posted October 19, 2009 Share Posted October 19, 2009 Other M is one of the things that I plain disagree with Malstrom. Finally a Metroid not done by Retro Studios after so long. I think that spending some time on character development won't be that bad for Metroid since it'll make Samus less of a female Crono in heavy armor. Not to mention that the trailer hints at improved combat which was mostly "shoot at the enemy until it dies" before. Also "Remember me?".

Rodykitty Posted October 19, 2009 Share Posted October 19, 2009 What are you talking about? The combat in Metroid Fusion was amazing. Oh, you're talking about the lock-on system in the Prime Games. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ike-Mike Posted October 19, 2009 Share Posted October 19, 2009 I'm talking about how you can't do much other than shoot something from your arm while the Other M trailer hints at some crazy acrobatics that go along with the shooting.

You know, crazy acrobatics existed in the 2D Metroid games. You probably forgot though, because the Prime games are so contrastingly unacrobatic in comparison.

Sasori Posted October 19, 2009 Share Posted October 19, 2009 Up till now the game looks pretty interesting but i hate MBD Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blademaster! Posted October 20, 2009 Share Posted October 20, 2009 For the purpose of preserving Samus's character, I just hope there is not too much fanservice (its undoubtedly going to be in their since it is a Metroid game, but I'm just hoping she doesn't have her boobs bouncing in every scene she is wearing her suit in or something along those lines. It IS Team Ninja who is making this game after all.) Game play wise, it looks great, and the CG cutscenes look amazing. I can't wait for this game. And the fact that it takes place after super metroid will also be pretty interesting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grandjackal Posted October 20, 2009 Share Posted October 20, 2009 Wake me up when actual gameplay is solidly shown. If it's like Prime 3, I'd rather not be disturbed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blademaster! Posted October 20, 2009 Share Posted October 20, 2009 From what has been seen in the trailer, it seems to use both first person and third person. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Iced Posted October 20, 2009 Share Posted October 20, 2009 I admit the game does look good, but my god everyone at Nintendo must have been drunk when they decided to let team ninja develop it. Samus is a bounty hunter not a stripper Nintendo should remember that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr. Francis York Morgan Posted October 20, 2009 Share Posted October 20, 2009 Yea can't wait for this game honestly. I love both the 3d and 2d metroids except for hunters due to stylus so I'm just hoping this is a good game and that team ninja doesn't screw up. Ninja Gaiden difficulty would be epic... without all the camera problems the first ninja gaiden had. I had ninja gaiden 2 but I didn't get very far cause my 360 rrod'd so I wouldn't know if they fixed the camera or not honestly. Anyway you can't see how bad the camera is in the main story the first time on normal or easy but when you get into the higher difficulties especially in the missions the camera was arguably your greatest enemy at times. I only was able to get master ninja on a few of the missions. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mikethfc Posted October 20, 2009 Share Posted October 20, 2009 (edited) If its anything like DOA (relying solidly on wannabe soft-core) I'd really rather stick to the primes Edited October 20, 2009 by mikethfc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Original Alear Posted October 21, 2009 Share Posted October 21, 2009 Maelstrom's post seems kind of confused. At one point he criticizes Sakamoto for attributing Metroid's success to interest in Samus' charater, which I think may be just (although my bro knew samus was a girl before he bought the game, and the few other people I know who played the original metroid also knew). But at another point, he gives linearity as the reason for metroid fusion's lack of success, which is ridiculous since it's the same kind of argument Sakamoto made - the relative linearity of fusion is something gamers only discover as they play, so it can't be the reason why Fusion didn't do well. In fact, the Prime games are only slightly less linear, while the least linear metroid game of the time period - Zero Mission - was the least successful. I'm also interested in his numbers proving that the GBA ver of the original metroid outsold Zero Mission. For the purpose of preserving Samus's character, I just hope there is not too much fanservice (its undoubtedly going to be in their since it is a Metroid game, but I'm just hoping she doesn't have her boobs bouncing in every scene she is wearing her suit in or something along those lines. It IS Team Ninja who is making this game after all.) Game play wise, it looks great, and the CG cutscenes look amazing. I can't wait for this game. And the fact that it takes place after super metroid will also be pretty interesting. Metroid games have been pretty low on fanservice actually, usually the only views you get of Samus with her suit off is a the very end of the game. And I think some of the 2-d ones had game-overs where her suit falls off. Technically, Samus strips into skimpy outfits every single game. I'm pretty sure she doesn't in the first Metroid Prime. Correct me if I'm wrong, but I think the most that goes is her helmet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not only that, but he keeps insisting on how unpopular Fusion was when it in fact is one of the most popular Metroids in Japan. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rodykitty Posted October 21, 2009 Share Posted October 21, 2009 Even though Fusion was lacking in the exploration department, it had amazing gameplay action-wise. Decent challenge and amazing bosses, as well as extreme fun factor. It truly shows that Metroid can make a competent action game as well as an exploration one.

I like how everyone assumes that just because Team Ninja is working on it, all female characters are gonna grow to double E cup stripers. Nevermind that Samus strips in every single game she's in, but the trailer doesn't show any huge breasts. I know Team Ninja is a team comprised of guys who love huge tits (pretty much the only requirement to work on the DoA team), but come on...It's not their project alone.

Just call me AL Posted October 22, 2009 Share Posted October 22, 2009 I've checked on it, Samus does NOT strip in Metroid Prime 1. All she takes off is her helmet dammit, and that's if you got 100% scans or something like that.80% items actually, IIRC. Although the same thing does happen when you do get 100% items. As well as Dark Samus being born. But as for the topic, I'm looking forward to Metroid: Other M. I'm planning on getting it. What I want to know is: just who is that guy who says "remember me?" anyways? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Original Alear Posted October 23, 2009 Share Posted October 23, 2009 As well as Dark Samus being born. True, but I kind of assumed that no one gave a shit about dark samus while samus in zero suit only (or less) is a matter of serious importance.
