| | JUSTIN BAILEY refers to a famous Metroid password that gives the player all the power-ups needed to win the game in a short amount of time, and also renders Samus in a purple leotard rather than her armored suit. | | | The game is present as an unlockable bonus in Metroid Prime. | | | Metroid has five different endings that vary depending on how much time the player took to finish. |

| | Metroid Prime for GameCube Review - GameCube Metroid Prime Review |
| | Unlike in previous Metroid games, none of Samus' weapons are ever replaced--her arsenal only grows in size, and all her available armaments remain tactically useful throughout the game. | | | As in all other Metroid games, you'll assume the role of interstellar bounty hunter Samus Aran, whose objective this time out is to search the planet Tallon IV for signs of illicit activity on the part of the Zebesian space pirates and put a stop to them once and for all. | | | Metroid Prime doesn't play like any other game that's come before it, and it emphasizes exploration and investigation at least as much as pure action. |

| | GameSpy: Metroid Prime 2 Echoes Everything We Know |
| | Metroid II came around in 1991 for the Game Boy system, and while it would be a nice thing to say that the black and white color scheme suited the world in a stark, elegant way, it would be a fat lie. | | | In any case, it was a Metroid game in the end, and as such, it was very good. | | | Metroid pioneered the sort of gameplay system later found in games like Castlevania: Symphony of the Night and, of course, its successors, and it's surprising how well the experience holds up. |

| | Metroid: Fusion - GBA |
| | The game really feels like any other Metroid game, which is easily the best compliment one could give the game. | | | If you’ve never played a Metroid game before, other than doing all I can to urge you to correct that deficiency in your video gaming resume, think of it as similar to the more recent Castlevania games, only with blasters and missiles instead of whips and holy water. | | | One of my biggest complaints I had about older Metroid games was having to wander around aimlessly until you stumbled upon the area you were supposed to go to next, and this mission system eliminates that annoyance. |

| | Planet GameCube Preview: Metroid Prime |
| | True, some of the elements from the 2d games may be lost and the 3d game is not quite the same, but with a focused and capable team of developers behind it, the game becomes something new and wonderful while retaining many elements that warm a gamers nostalgic heart. | | | Being that Metroid Prime is a hugely important title for Nintendo this year (this is the big tuna for the year), many rival fanboys have spread stinky poops that it would be a very short game. | | | Unfortunately, one huge missing piece of the Metroid pie is the Screw Attack...it’s not in the game at all, unless it is being added at the last minute (doubtful) or is hidden incredibly deep into the game. |
