Stopped sometime after getting gravity boost...I really have no real desire to complete this which hurts to say as a fan of Metroid. The music is still moody and the overall atmosphere feels amazing like the first prime but playing this is a DRAG. There is more of an emphasis on combat than the first expressed through more complex boss fights, which is irritating due to how sluggish shooting and strafing feels in the prime games. It probably would be better to try this through the Wii's control on prime trilogy than emulated gamecube controller in order to salvage anything fun from the shooting in this game. As it stands the combat actively makes me dread exploring and enjoying the actual cool environments of this game.
