"Metroid: Other M"

Being a massive fan of the 2D Metroid games - the GBA instalments rank amongst my most favourite games - the reintroduction of some of those gameplay mechanics in Other M is a definite step back in the right direction. Unfortunately, like a lot of Wii games, the developers felt the need to include a "novel" control system and constantly having to reorientate the remote - especially during combat - is fiddly and distracting. The is just a niggle however, as otherwise it's another good entry in the Metroid series and a marked improvement over Metroid Prime.

Having inherited this legacy, “Other M” stands upon very unsteady ground. Fan expectation is fanatical, with no two fans agreeing upon where the series should go. ...
