I bought myself a gamecube yesterday on impulse when I saw that the local PX here had a copy of Metroid Prime for sale and after getting home I opened it all up and started playing. I didn't have too much time to play last night, but I woke up today and immediately began again. 8 hours later I realized that the entire day was wasted and I turned off the system.

All I can say is WOW!
This is easily the best game I've ever played. An absolute perfect 10 game. Anyone who likes playing video games has got to acquire a copy of this somehow... eithere borrow it from a friend, rent a cube and the game from blockbuster, or just go out and buy a gamecube and the game. Well anyways, I just thought I'd let some people know. Now back to your regularly scheduled posting :D

I love metroid prime. Too bad they got rid of a few useful attacks or moves like Jump Ball and Screw attack.


I beat Metroid Fusion on gba and hooked it up to the Game Cube and unlocked the original metroid. Another great game :D

Make sure you haven't disabled hint mode in the options. It should periodically pop up a message indicating that you should check your map (Z button) to look for a ? icon which indicates where you should go next.
