Only if I play it for more than 30 minutes, though. If that was the only problem, I could take it. However, the bland, lacking plot bores me, the fighting is an exercise in tedium, the puzzles are increadibly trite, and backtracking over the same huge areas every ten minutes really, really bugs me. I just can't bring myself to play it anymore. I keep trying to brute force my way through more of the game, thinking "I'll get better after this part!", but "this part" never comes. <!--emo&???--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/confused.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='confused.gif'><!--endemo--> The graphics are okay, but the hud is huge and gets in the way. The controls are better than, say, Goldeneye, but they're still akward at times.
Bluh. But if you like it, that's your thing <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin.gif'><!--endemo-->
It's perfect considering the sheer scope of what they had to do. Plus I love how your gun effects change depending upon what you fire with (when you fire Plasma/Normal your gun has heat waves. Ice and your gun steams a little. Wave and it's wavey)
Plus the first game to actually show the characters face depending upon the lighting (get shot or shoot a full charge at a wall your standing next to and you see Samus's face)
