Other M also lacked that element, yet cracks the Top 10. The only thing Federation Force lacks that nearly every other entry has is item based progression in terms of accessing new areas. 'It's difficult to understand quite what Nintendo was thinking in making a Metroid game that doesn't feature Samus as the playable character or, like, anything that makes a Metroid game a Metroid game.' <- Next Level Games and Nintendo did make a Metroid game that features quite a bit of what makes a Metroid game a Metroid game. None of the Primes really play like another overall. The inclusion of Hyper Mode and beam stacking changed up the mechanics of Corruption as well. It's a completely different game especially when compared to the original Prime and Echoes since it also had motion controls. 'Putting them in order is particularly difficult, but we've popped the third entry last because it doesn't really do an awful lot to distinguish itself from the other Primes.' <-Corruption has a linear design compared to Prime 1 and 2, which are a bit more open. The only Metroid game even close to being like Fusion is Other M. Even today, it still stands out as it's more narrative driven and is more linear in design. At the time, Fusion was the biggest departure from the formula Metroid had.

Though it's an excellent game in its own right, it didn't really do much to distinguish itself from other Metroids.' <- This is incorrect. 'Metroid Fusion bears more than a passing resemblance to Super Metroid, and that's likely its biggest fault. I'm convinced you haven't played Fusion, Federation Force and Corruption. I don't have an issue with your rankings, but your descriptions for half of these games have too many errors. Original Metroid and Metroid II especially have aged really badly and have been surpassed by their remakes. The idea behind the story (of a corrupt Galactic Federation being as bad as the Space Pirates) did have potential but was let down by Sakamoto's awful writing. It was a good game to play (apart from the first person sections) and not as bad as a lot of people make it out to be. My experience with FF stopped me picking up Zelda Tri Force Heroes. FF being a co-op game puts it towards the end of the list for me, I could only go so far solo before coming up against missions where it felt like you had to play in co-op and I'm not one for co-op games. Hunters story had the weakest story of what we'd seen at the time but I liked that it opened out the Metroid Universe more. Hunters & Federation Force I have similar problems with in that I feel they are held back by the hardware - not enough graphical power and hand-cramping controls make them difficult to play. Both excellent games just prefer 3D gameplay over 2D. Prime followed by Super at the top for me. It's actually a more enjoyable game when you just skip all the cutscenes in my opinion. I still enjoy the gameplay on occasion too. You still explore various planets that each have their own open world environments.' I could be wrong, but I only remember Talon IV in Metroid I didn't mind the story back when I first played it, but I was younger and didn't have the most refined tastes. Though it's an excellent game in its own right, it didn't really do much to distinguish itself from other Metroids.' Other M (I'd play this over the original Metroid ANY day).ДЄlso calling Federation Force an abomination is just a bit extreme.And.
