I'm reviewing the game through this because my first time beating Metroid Prime was through the Metroid Prime Trilogy on the Wii.
It goes without saying that this game is a masterstroke. Such a brilliant game that translates the Metroidvania formula perfectly into an FPS with incredible level design and gripping gunplay. It's also one of the few games I've played that really makes the most of the motion controls; hell, I'd say the Prime Trilogy is arguably the gold standard for motion-controlled gaming. I was almost worried going into the Remaster that the dual-stick controls wouldn't do the motion controls justice (though trust me, they did). That's how good the Wii version is.
