Played the opening bit of Metroid Prime. Amazingly gorgeous game, I mean WOW. Still gotta get used to the gameplay, it's a bit odd to play Metroid in 3D. Very neat so far, let's see how it holds up

<div style='font: 9pt Arial; text-align: left; '>Well I've realized by now that it can't possibly play like classic Metroid, but then again it's a FPS with an amazing set of groundowrk backing it up.</div>

<div style='font: 9pt ; text-align: left; '>Yeah, I know. Just incredible. I played it a bit more and got some upgrades. The levels are very well designed, you can see where you need to go and what you need to get there. And when you get a new upgrade, it's like the old games, a whole new section opens up</div>

<div style='font: 9pt ; text-align: left; '>This is a longer game than I thought. Finished playing after a long stretch, decided to check the menu...figured I was 35 or 40% done. 4:30, and only 24%. Sweet.</div>

<div style='font: 9pt Arial; text-align: left; '>I know what you mean. I wish they gave a bit more leeway with the controls. Other than that, the game is fucking glorious.</div>
