LazyBoy Posted August 19, 2007 Posted August 19, 2007 Could someone please C&P that review, the site doesn't want to work for me. Thanks.

Dannyboy-the-Dane Posted August 19, 2007 Posted August 19, 2007 Amazing review! I've actually never read a review that positive before. I mainly avoid reading reviews because they tend to be negative most of the time.

dingojackass Posted August 19, 2007 Posted August 19, 2007 I'd love to get this bad boy before uni starts, just not quite enough to warrant buying a US wii. Does anyone know if a you could format the v3.1 update and use a freeloader thing to play the NTSC import?
mcj metroid Posted August 19, 2007 Posted August 19, 2007 basiaclly going by the last sentence they pretty much beleive it's the best metroid prime game.... and maybe even best metroid game overall

Dante Posted August 19, 2007 Posted August 19, 2007 MP3:C Achievements Interesting part of the game that I had no idea even existed. If you accomplish small tasks in the game, you are awarded with bonus tokens. These tokens come in four colors: Red, Blue, Green, and Gold. Red tokens are given as you scan a certain number of enemies/items. Blue tokens are given for scanning lore and accomplishing side tasks. Green I believe are when friends give you vouchers, more on that later. Gold tokens are given for beating bosses on various difficulties. You use the tokens to unlock hidden content in the extras menu. The final type of token is the "friend voucher". Basically these are given for accomplishing some type of cool accomplishment in the game. For example, when I beat the boss, a gold token flashed at the top of my screen saying it was for killing Lord Beserker. At an earlier point, I saved a GF trooper from being killed by two enemies. I was given a blue token for that one. I also obtained two friend vouchers. In one case, I saved a GF trooper from being sucked into space. In another case, I killed 100 small bugs in a room before leaving. According to the game, you apparently send these "achievements" to your friends, and they give them green tokens. I think it's a level of competition between friends to see who's unlocked the most "achievements". I was interested in this since there was a "Friend Roster" option and a "Configure Wii Connect 24" option on the menu. I didn't hear about this before, and I think it's pretty cool
Cube Posted August 19, 2007 Posted August 19, 2007 What do you get for collecting lots of tokens? A new set of suits? Concept art? The super-secret online multiplayer?

I also thought this was an interesting part of the game of which I would have never expected. But it looks really cool though. When I first saw it pop up on the screen I was like What! This is a Metroid game right. Still, its a nice touch.
