• First level - You are attacked on a spaceship while meeting with the ship’s captain…action packed
• Play feels motion controls work better than dual joystick
• Super sensitive pointer in “advanced” mode
• Beam stacking ala Super Metroid
• Visor switch: Hold minus and flick Wiimote in certain directions
• Boss fight with Ridley at the end of the first level. Excellent difficulty curve by the time you reach the boss.
• Back tracking in MP3:C makes more sense than in previous Primes
• Extra development time was to give the game more polish. Nintendo wanted “Twilight Princess” levels of polish. Game is focused on Metroid fans and hardcore gamers, but still accessible to newcomers due to controls.
• Second level - floating city focused on exploration
• Larger environments, bloom lighting, better textures than Prime 2
• Corruption Mode not available in demo
• Play says it could be the biggest revolution in FPS gaming since Halo.

Well it's happened, and fanboys are shedding sweet tears of joy all over the English speaking world. We finally have official details regarding Metroid Prime 3: Corruption, and some of us couldn't be happier.

This list is pretty damn sweet. The only thing missing from it that still worries me is an apparent lack of online, or at least a description of which. One thing I am really excited about is the floating city focused on exploration. It will definitely give the newest installment to the Metroid series a higher sense of freedom, which I truly believe the first two games lacked.

The biggest revolution in FPS gaming since Halo. Well we would certainly expect so after the huge delays of this game. We are all hoping deep down inside that this game will be the start of Wii's "hardcore" First-Person Shooter family.

Saying that Play feels motion controls work better than dual joystick is definitely what all of us wanted to hear. So many opinions on this game are based on the fact that it will have excellent controls. With Reggie Fils-Aime telling us that Metroid Prime 3: Corruption was held back so long so that it would be "perfect", fanboys are already drooling at the possibilities.

I am really looking forward to Prime 3. It would bitterly disappoint me if there was no Wi-Fi Connection support for such an obvious title. We at least hope for some form of customisation via WiiConnect24, and I'll pray that this will be the game to kick-start Nintendo's favourite always-on, yet still potentially unlocked wireless update service.

Wow...

You are the bomb dude!

I saw that in my Nintendo Power, they said that they would be reviling what really took all that time for prime to come...

Maybe that is the online confirmed???

Great find!!

Or Speculation, but great news none the less. Now all we need is a new trailer Luben's sig has the new MP3 logo.

Is it the official logo?

I believe it is.

Looks cool, cant wait to play...at CZMQFRG's house ^^

This game is going to rock the Wii this year.

It sounds better and better each time I hear about it. I love you Retro Studios, now give us online.

This is going to be my first Metroid Game to own. Its not that i havent had Nintendo Consoles, I have had N64 until the Wii, but i just never understood it. Now i do and i cant wait for it.

This will be so good!!! I hope it doesn't get delayed again.

GREAT find, CZMQ!!!

HECK YEAH!!!
.... The backtracking is the reason I never finished MP1 >___<
Hopefully I'll understand the storyline. d:

a lot of this stuff isn't even new. All of this has been said before except the details about the levels and the visor switch thing. other than that, this is all old news.

good news, and nice find. but if they were to include online, what could they have?

4 vs 4 online? capture the flag?, those type of things.

i see. i suck at those kinda games.

*has sex with ninty-wii's ideas*

WTF!?

his online ideas XD
