Corruption might not be the best word to describe this wonderful delight of a game. Quite the opposite in fact. Other than Twilight Princess, this game comes as close to perfection as any game as come on the Wii console so far. More so than any other Metroid game before, Corruption has the most adventure feel to it while still redefining FPS action. The only minor quibbles I've had with the game so far - and I've almost beat it 100 percent - is some of the backtracking, interaction mini-games, the easy difficulty, and the predictability of the story even though it's the best plot of the entire series. But these problems are minor, very minor. The graphics and artistic design of the game is so good it easily holds its own against the big guns of the Xbox 360 and PS3, the FPS controls make you feel like you never want to play with the keyboard/mice or dual analog setup ever again, and with so many achievements, secrets, and unlockables in the game, this game is EPIC.
In short: Best Metroid Game Ever!
What do you guys think? The series has expanded in nearly every ways. You can call your ship to different locations and order it to attack certain enemies and areas, as well as grapple onto objects for certain missions. The theme of the grapple beam has three major uses now: latching onto enemies and ripping them to shreds, swinging to areas, and to energize or drain energy from certain devices. You get a Hypermode of sorts that helps in battles at the expense of an Energy Tank, but later in the game many enemies can do that same thing. Expanding on the idea of finding more missile expansions, you can also get missiles for your ship, which means finding missile expansions for that. When you can easily get over 200 hundred missiles for your arm cannon, what are you to do? Get a multi-missile cannon! Yep, you heard me right. Retro Studios didn't stop there though, for they threw in a quest to find eight Energy Cells - not energy tanks - which I wont say what for, thats a surprise. In total, there is 100 things to find, and a ton more to scan.
So again, what do you think?
