Metroid: Other M

[Omegajak]

This is reminding me of all the hooplah over Wind Waker. 'I'm not playing this. It's too cartoony.'

How does that relate to Other M? 'I'm not looking forward to this. There's too much action, Samus character development, and plot instead of just adventuring.' Considering we've only had what a trailer and http://www.metroid.jp/ to go by? At least give it until e3 where we'll get more trailers and screens from the game.

I think most people I talk to about their disagreement with Wind Wakers style was that they looked like they were going to take a darker tone for the series and didn't. The promo video of Ganon vs Link, Majora's Mask's dark overtones the series in general as well as the demographic were in the early teens if not on the way and were more into the angsty faze. A lot of people never got over the blow that was Wind Waker, at least a lot of people I know.

On topic. You guys are still taking a self-perception of Samus and dissecting it as if she need's to be assessed. Maybe Samus is who she is, Samus Aran the bounty hunter who lost everything but gained power to make sure others don't have to deal with her lot in life.
