Watch a replay of Jason playing one of the worst-received Metroid titles of all time!
Why would I play Metroid: Other M as this week's Monday Night PlayBit? It's simple: I never took the time to get through the game before. More than that, from what I saw, I really felt like the game got shafted upon release. See, Other M took Samus's stoic, unfeeling, powerful character and made her into a more realistic person. People were used to Samus being about the Power Suit, but most neglected deep thoughts about what was underneath. Am I just trying to look sophisticated, or is there something meaningful behind what I'm saying...? Click through to watch the replay!
I'm looking for the game to play this coming week. I want to play more of the unfinished games we hit on over the past few weeks. Things like WarioLand: Shake It! and A Boy and His Blob, or even more Metroid: Other M.
Anyone have any suggestions or choices at what they'd like to see again?
Why not go with Metroid Other M since you didn't get to show much of the gameplay?
It’s been a long time since we’ve seen an entry in the Metroid Prime series - 18 years, in fact. It was 8 years ago that Metroid Prime 4 was originally announced and its development was more than a little turbulent. Initially developed by Bandai Namco, it was later scrapped completely and development was shifted back to Retro Studios to start the project over. In the end, Retro has delivered a solid new entry in the series, but one that doesn’t totally capture what originally made the series so compelling.
