This is a review of sorts to sum up my perspective on the Metroid games: Prime, Echoes and Corruption.

With regard to background, Prime was the first Metroid game I ever played though I was aware of the franchise through Smash Bros., general chit-chat with other gamers and a bit of reading up on the storyline.

The game world itself was a new experience for me and as the first Metroid in true 3D, probably was for even those accustomed to the story and style of play, I should think (correct me if I’m wrong!).

I knew I had to buy Starfox Adventures. The series is one of my favourites and since I saw an early review of "Starfox Adventures: Dinosaur Planet", I was so excited (I do love dinosaurs!).

However, SFA delivers some heavy disappointments.

Firstly, it does have a bit going for it; the graphics are very good. Environments are beautiful and the characters are lovingly designed with a high level of detail. There are a few good ideas in it; bits of the game that in isolation will make you think fondly of it.

The main aspects of this game that stand out for me, though, are its flaws.

Resident Evil 1 for the playstation 1 was pretty ground-breaking on its release. It spawned multiple sequels (and prequels) such as: Resident Evil: Zero and Resident Evil: Surivor. So it came as no surprise when Nintendo decided they wanted a slice of that money-making pie so they released the whole series on the GameCube platform.
For the most part the games were just mediocre ports of the original Playstation 1 and Dreamcast etc. titles (Resident Evil 2,3 and Code Veronica)
