Metroid Prime 2: Echoes review:3 stars (Eh, So-so) - Let me put it this way. This is yet another game that does not overcome the original. I would not say it is a waste of money, just not very good. Going between the dark and light sides of Aether becomes annoying, confusing, and difficult. Let's hope the third installment of the Metroid Prime series is better than this one.5 stars (Great "Metroid Prime" Sequel...) - Considering it was a quick sequel, anyone expecting there to be massive changes to the original "Metroid Prime" game engine and play controls were just busy deluding themselves. That's not generally how the industry works, folks. And as someone who has played every "Metroid" game (minus the DS games), I had my worries about a poisonous Dark World with limited ammo.

In short, there's nothing to worry about.

If you played the original "Metroid Prime" (MP1), you spend less time getting accustomed to the controls and get ramped into the game easily. That's a plus for me, and this game is still about twice as long as its predecessor. Plus, in my view, MP1 had too many repetitive Space Pirate battles that just became a bore after a while, rather than a challenge. And the trend of missiles becoming increasingly worthless, as started with "Super Metroid," officially ended with this game. Limited beam ammo means becoming increasingly creative in some battles.

While some people have complained about the areas being a bit "boring," well, that's a matter of opinion. The "Metroid" series always had a certain claustrophobia about it until MP1, and all MP2 here does is reclaim that sense of dread that I came to love with the series. Even then, though, there's still plenty of eye candy to enjoy, particularly later on in the game.

All in all, it's a game worth playing. I frankly enjoyed it much more than I did playing MP1, and a game that is longer, requires more strategy, and has a bit more difficulty is something I heartily welcome. It was a hell of a lot of fun.5 stars (Metroid prime 2 review) - Echoes is a great sequal with amazing sound effects stunnig grafics and and bacround music like no other. I love this game.

It has an interesting story line but having to scan things can be restrictive when fighting enemies.

the ammo limitations are not to bad especialy because you have infinate power beam ammo.

over all an awesome game made better by having multiplayer.

discover that for yourself.
