Okay, this is something new I’ve decided to tackle this summer. I like to call myself a gamer, but I’ve never actually beaten a Metroid game. So, this summer I’ve taken it upon myself to run through… well, most of the Metroid games, and then review them for your pleasure here. The tentative list right now is Super Metroid, Prime 1-3, Fusion, and Zero Mission. To my knowledge the only ones I’m skipping is 1 (covered by Zero Mission essentially), 2 (I don’t even know where I’d find a copy of this) and Other M (ha). Well, expect these posts to be pretty sporadic in nature (and possibly extend past the summer) as I don’t have infinite time to play through these games, but for now I’ve beaten my first Metroid game. Considered by a lot of fans to be the best Metroid game, and I can kind of see why. Without further ado, I present you with… Super Metroid.
The box art... Surprisingly, this sums the game up pretty well. Much better than Megaman 1 did, anyway.
