 Rating:  - Almost As Fun As the FirstIt felt like something was missing playing this game. It was a great game but it is not as good as the first one. Rating: - A Wonderful, Engaging Improvement over the Original PrimeSo many of the reviews of this game focus on the fact that this is essentially another round of what the original Metroid Prime had to offer, but this is misleading. Metroid Prime was a beautiful recreation of the previous Metroid world in a 3D, first-person perspective world - it was more or less Super Metroid in a new format. Metroid Prime 2: Echoes, on the other hand, is everything Retro Studios really wanted to offer - the game that can exist now that the original Prime has served as a bridge ...

But you know, it's certainly NOT a classic because it's basically the same as the first two Metroid Prime games ... Read More Rating: - Not the best Metroid, but a good installment in the series...Simply put, the game is just way too similar to the first Metroid Prime. Unfortunately this immediately makes Echoes feel inferior. So if you're looking for a brand new innovative game, you will be disappointed. However, as a Metroid game, it's just as engrossing and enveloping as the rest. Storywise, this one is much darker and much more surreal. The puzzles and the tasks that Samus must go through are MUCH more involved...sometimes to the point of frustration. The bosses are tricky, ... Read More |
