I'm hoping it will be good motivation to move faster on the project... but will I even survive the ordeal???

I'd sacrifice sleep to put in a little time into it..BECAUSE IT'S SO FREAKING AWESOME I CAME IN MY PANTS MULTIPLE TIMES! EVEN THE PANTS I'M NOT EVEN WEARING!

Seriously, after an hour and a half put into the game, it is absolutely brilliant...

That is pretty nasty Bill.

I know...I'm sending my dry-cleaning bill to Retro...

WTF is Matt talking about. Has Matt ever used modeling tools before?
This comment has my wondering what the hell he is talking about.

Matt only said the two sentances between the quotation marks, I said the rest.

I've used dedicated modeling tools and map editors. All I'm saying is that I can tell when a game designer has used both, or just a standard 3d modeling tool. I am praising MP because none of the geometry looks like it was designed in with the restrictive tools of a level editor.

Air lock system: Because each area is behind an automatic door, you can load the world in parts, as you get to them, instead of loading one huge area all at once. This lets you have more detail in each area then a game that might have no doors between different areas.

It's ok, you would be extremely dissapointed.

Damn gamestop was right, it was completely sold out.... there. Down the street, even after everyone in the line before me bought mp3, they still have ton of copies left. Just one more reason to hate gamestop

oh yeah, METROID GET!

Haha, I've had that happen before with a gamestop.

By the time it comes out in europe, maybe they'll have fixed the parts that Mantidor dislikes?

You mean that Wii is an expensive GameCube 1.5? No i don't think that'll be fixed.

Anyone else having a problem where MP3 just will not work? It's been a nightmare. I picked up my copy from my work today, and come home and did the system update. Then when it read in the disc channel, I go to start the game, and i got a "disc read error". Every other game I own works but this one. I called nintendo and they told me to send it to them for repair. Its cool that they are paying for all the shipping, but I'll be without my copy for 2-3 weeks.!

I can't find anyone else with the same problem online. Its impossible that I'm the only one out of everyone who bought the game to be having problems.

GoldenPhoenix · « **Reply #1139 on:** August 28, 2007, 10:59:51 AM »

Maybe you got a defective disk? While not super common for games, it does happen from time to time. Why can't you just return it the store you got it from and exchange it for another?

D_MaN87 · « **Reply #1140 on:** August 28, 2007, 11:01:21 AM »

Well I know the policy there is that a new game cannot be exchanged. But I'm not sure, if I explain the situation they might do it.

Are you sure that policy just doesn't mean you can't exchange an opened game for a different game? Seems odd because every store I've been to allow you to exchange an opened game for the exact same game.

D_MaN87 · « **Reply #1142 on:** August 28, 2007, 11:12:27 AM »

Well I talked to my work. If it is defective I can exchange it for the same game, and they handle getting the defective copy shipped to nintendo.

Bill Aurion · « **Reply #1143 on:** August 28, 2007, 11:42:51 AM »

Ewwww, that sucks...No problems here... ;_;

I've gotten to the second planet, Bryyo, and I just fought Rundas...Holy crap it's one of my favorite battles in the entirety of the Metroid series...The music adds a LOT to it, it's just bloody epic...And I like how Samus shows absolutely no emotion after killing him...It's absolutely amazing how much her tough character shows through without her actually talking...

cubist · « **Reply #1144 on:** August 28, 2007, 12:20:51 PM »

I still have to pick the game up...go to the gym with my wife (no way around it)...and then finally get to kick it with Samus. I hate reading about people playing this gem before me.

Mashiro · « **Reply #1145 on:** August 28, 2007, 01:36:22 PM »

No problems with my disc so far.

I've been enjoying the game less than I normally would be because my sister is sick and laying in the den. Sadly she can't take a hint to goto her room so most of the time I played with the volume barely loud enough to hear the blasts.

::sigh::

so I'm waiting till later to play some more.

One thing that annoys the crap outta me (and maybe it's just the wiimote I was using), my sensor bar like doesn't pick up the wiimote when I point upwards too high.

Aside from that it's a solid game experience so far =)

Bill Aurion · « **Reply #1146 on:** August 28, 2007, 01:38:58 PM »

Are you using the Advanced control option? Because if not, you should be...

Mashiro · « **Reply #1147 on:** August 28, 2007, 02:03:12 PM »

I'm using standard right now after trying each for a bit. Advanced bobbles around a little too much for my liking.
