We already have a topic about what pissed us off the most. How about what we liked the most? :-?

The slick action. It would be even better with analog and such, but I liked sense move, I liked finishers, etc.

I'd like to see a revamped version of Other M's combat in the future, with analog and actual aiming.

I liked the concept of being able to switch between 3rd and 1st person. In a future title, I'd like to be able to move around in 1st person, and even better, I'd like to be able to play the entire game in 1st person if I want, or vice versa.

If it weren't for the fact that Metroid is dead because of the abysmal sales of Other M, I'd have just one thing to say to you: Wii U. :coffee:

It's not dead. Nintendo will still make another Metroid game.

Samus...because I Image.

The sencemove was a great feature.

The cutscenes are absolutely gorgeous.

I mean really, the cutscenes are beautiful, just look down at my signature and look at the gif, Samus looks stunning, the reflections look great, scenery looks great, everything looks beautiful.

Yes, it looked very nice. I'll add that to my list.

Unfortunately, looks aren't everything, and in the game world, that applies heavily.

Well since I've ranted about what I hate most about the game, I might as well what i DO like. I mean, it's a free internet after all, right? ... Right?

Ahem, right... Anyways, I like the "action" in the game most. I like how hand-to-hand combat was implemented. I always wanted to see Samus literally kick alien ass. And they way it was implemented in this game was actually better executed than any other positive aspect of Other M! What I mean is that the physical combat did not overtake the more traditional methods of attack the series is known for, but rather enhances it. There were very few places in the game that I remember where you actually HAD to use lethal strike to kill an enemy. It was optional. But it was developed enough so that if you wanted to use it, you could, and it even causes extra damage than your beam in some cases! The sensemove I think is a little bit overpowered, unlike the concentration ability, but that's another can of worms...

The action was great in this game. I really liked how Samus uses her athletic abilities on ememies, very satisfying. Lethal strike was good, I think I used it a little too much in this game XD.

Yes, it would warm the cockles of my heart if a more refined third person Metroid experience were to be made taking cues from the better aspects of Other M.
Be not proud of what you make, but what impact it leaves on others.
