You plebians just don't know what epic literature is. You should try reading Stephanie Meyer, E.L. James, Dan Brown, or Ayn Rand.

I loved the poo poo out of guacamelee but it's a6 hour game that doesn't even compare to fusion

And I stand alone in this but axiom verge sucks poo poo. The castlevania games are good though

Nah I agree. Axiom Verge has some great sprite work on the creatures but the gameplay and level design are real bad.

Prime 2 is obnoxious for the first half of the game up until you get the Gravity Suit equivalent. It's worth it for the last area.

Also stop trying to beat the Zeta Metroid and move on, Nintendo stream.

If a Nintendo franchise isn't Mario, Kirby, Zelda, Pokemon, AC or one of those lovely Wii shovelware games it is niche, I hope this helps you

I love this game. I love Metroid Prime 4. Give me all the Metroid games, I've been starved too long.

Metroid fans who complain about this are ridiculous.

Show me the Metroid fans who refuse to buy an actual honest to god 2D Metroid after all this time and probably are calling for a boycott after what happened with AM2R because I know they exist.

The tools of a hero mean nothing without a solid core.

Prime 2 really only has a handful of small design issues.

The downside is that they're ALL in Torvus Bog.

none of the people who led the direction of the Prime series are at Retro anymore anyway, so we'd be dealing with new blood anyway.

Metroid is niche in Japan, it's far more popular in North America. The entire reason why Other M was made so differently was to appeal to the Japanese audience, and it backfired miserably.
