HURRAH!!! I just found out that the Metroid for Game Cube ISN'T gonna suck! As we know, the game cube metroid (Metroid Prime) Was going to be a First Person Shooter.... And this was announced at E3

And the Metroid Fans got pissed beyond belief

After much bitching, moaning, ranting, and hate mail, it was changed from FPS.. to a Tomb-raider-ish view..... HURRAH! in other owrds, it's gonna be a platform game, much like the original!

The same question goes for, "What did you like better, 2D Megaman? Or Megaman Legends?"

It still might suck. The game isn't being devloped by Nintendo.

As far as I've heard it's still in the first person view, but it's a "first person adventure game" not an fps.

edit: I'm getting an Xbox not a Gamecube anyways so I'm probably wrong about Metroid.

Yeah, it's being developed by Retro, and that's cool that it got taken out of first person. The whole idea of a first person metroid game just sounded stupid to me.

A Metroid FPS could just ROCK! Just like an Aliens FPS could. Play up the horror parts of the game, but keep some of the "get item X to go back and explore area K" aspect of it.

Then again, there's no way they would do it right, so nevermind.

I believe in the existance of magic, not because I have seen proof of its existance, but because I refuse to live in a world where it does not exist.
