Metroid: Other M won’t be out for another week, and most reviews won’t arrive for a few days. However, the latest issue of Best Buy’s @Gamer has been released, which seems to have the first review of the game. You can check out some information from the article below.
– Going into first-person described as finnicky (sometimes you’ll suddenly be looking upwards instead of pointing directly at the enemy)
– Smooth/effortless third-person combat
– Weak points for these enemies are not immediately apparent
– Much exploration
– Nate Bihldorff was a placeholder voice at one point, but was used in the final game when it was decided that he delivered an impressive performance as a nasally scientist
– “It may not be the pinnacle of the series, but longtime fans shouldn’t let that deter them from checking out an overall enjoyable experience. Again, it’s all about managing your expectations.”
– Awarded a 4/5
