Should I pick up Metroid Prime TVC????
Yes or no.
-
tvc seems to really groove on it, so i'd venture "yes" and just tuck your scrotum for the interim
-
i didn't like 'em either, and while tvc liked the first with reservations, he hated the second. take that as you will!
-
everyone hates the second. get it.
-
EGM handed out 9s like candy to the second.

I think most did.

If you didn't like EITHER of the two, I'd stear clear to be honest. It's Metroid Prime...that's what you should be expecting, only with really good controls.
I'm sort of wondering if TVC will play through the whole game, as I hear there's some pretty stupid collectathon shit near the end again.
-
Why dont you just SHUT THE FUCK UP AND BUY IT and take it back the next day!
-
Yeah I guess.
Still think you should buy it, though.
Chicks with guns.
-
I hated the controls of the first two as well as the stupid scanning shit. If both those are fixed i can see liking the game.
Well, from what I've experienced, the controls are much better and scanning is not always necessary (but it is encouraged).
The best advice I can give you is to at least try it out at your local Gamestop. You have to do that annoying "lulz id for demo" exchange, but you can play it as long as you want. Try it out.

Get it, Rygar. I'm going to take a risk too. But I still have to beat Bioshock first so I won't try MP3 until next week at the earliest. It can't be a worst gamble than Mario Strikers which was fun for 10 mins.
-
I say go for it. I'm a fair bit into it and I'm very happy with it. My main complaints from the previous 2 games have been solved, and even if the game is a bit easy so far, it's got well designed visuals and great music.
-
Wow. Strong praise from TVC. So how does the quality compare to Bioshock so far? Jotaro claims that MP3 shits all over Bioshock.
Cool. i will pick it up. I should be finished with Bioshock tonight after bingeing on it and Diablo 2 this weekend.
Are you playing Diablo 2 for the 1st time?
-
It's really weird how we have so many guys here that just play games for loot.

why are you taking jotaro seriously? he'd sell out to nintendo if it meant getting to deflate a little bioshock hype around here.

You can't really compare the two. Despite what border would have you think, the games are absolutely nothing alike. Comparing Bioshock to Metroid Prime 3 would be like comparing Merzbow to Sonic Youth: there may be common points between the two, but they are entirely different beasts.
For the record, Bioshock is more my flavor, but that's probably because I'm an old skool LGS fanboy.
-
err, they're both hyped atmospheric shooters that were released close to one another
that's enough to compare them

They are two completely different styles of shooters.
