Page 1 of Metroid Prime? What`s it like?

Been checking future releases for GC and noticed that Metroid Prime is out in the next few days. So for anbody that`s played it... what is it like?

Quite interested in this title, and would be interested in opinions. I know Gamespot gave it 9.7!

Thanks!

I haven`t played it mate but I can`t wait for it.
Just finished Metroid Fusion for GBA which was great and Super Metroid is one of the best games ever.
It is supposed to be outstanding.

Managed to get fairly ingrossed in the demo... despite it being bloody short. Definetely helps to not think of it as a First Person Shooter.

Where did you get a demo from ?

Not read a bad word about it anywhere.

Might be worth looking here....

Cheers Ste. I`ve got it preordered from play. Don`t know what to do...

Demo is on the demo disc for the pod at work (Toys R Us)

i bought my Gamecube from Argos 2 day for this game and from the 10 mins or so i played i get the idea this is going to be a cracker...

controls arent too bad at all which some magazines said u would struggle with, nice gfx and fx...little things when i walked past the steam my visor got condensation all over it...

gonna have a proper play tomorrow and am tempted to have a pop now at this crazy hr seeing as im on the sick...ah well Nintendo has made me nocturnal it seems :)

so far seems a good update to the 2d snes game i enjoyed...little more involving them some of the first person im used to on pc...

i do see GC failing in UK actually but so long as i own Zelda, Soul Caliber 2 and this ill get my moneys worth for a good while...

Mine arrived from argos today and I`ve played up until the first boss after the first save station. WOW yes it is worth it, looks fantastic sounds great and plays like a dream. The whole style of the game really seems to immerse you in another world, I am taking over the living room tomorrow remember only £24.99 at Argos on line (see the bargain forum).

I`ve had it on import for a while now, and if you think its impressive now, give it a week or so and then wait till you see what its like....bloody amazing. It just keeps getting better & better.
