[Wii] Metroid: Other M - SHINESPARK IT

I'm staying cautiously optimistic about Other M. After skimming through a few reviews it sounds like this will be a game where every cutscene is worth at least one facepalm and I'll need to just pretend they didn't happen, but as long as the gameplay is enough fun I can deal with that. That's how it worked with Fusion to a lesser extent too. The only thing I've seen that really concerns me is a mention of being prohibited from backtracking much by the story.

In any case, I'll be waiting an extra week since I'm getting it through Amazon's free shipping. Their $20 credit deal made it worth betting on this being a good game. In the meantime I'm playing through Prime 3.

Jam it back in, in the dark.

Just finished watching the GT review, and it definitely put me at ease about how the game plays. The voice acting sounds pretty bad, but bearable. It looks like it'll be a blast as long as you can ignore their attempts to make Samus into a weak little girl story-wise. As Uzuki said, it's easy to call it sexist, but it seems like they just tried to make Samus more human and took it too far with bad writing. It's insulting, but not sexist.

There's nowhere I can't reach.
