$6.99 Used at GameStop

What can I say that hasn’t already been said about Metroid Prime? It put Retro Studios on the map, brought Samus back to the forefront of the industry, and essentially created a brand new sub-genre: the First Person Adventure. The gameplay is downright amazing, and you’ll be shocked when you realize that, even at four years old, Prime could’ve come out yesterday and still would’ve looked great. The highest order of kudos are in order, and if you don’t at least try this one out, there’s something seriously wrong with you.

On the chance that you decide to ignore this diamond in the rough, you’ll be visited by four ghosts. Their names? Inky, Pinky, Blinky, and Clyde. Fun Fact: Clyde’s the worst one.
