Play Magazine got some hands-on time with Metroid Prime 3 at Nintendo’s Media Summit. Here’s some juicy details from their play time with the game.

- Motion controls work better than dual joystick
- Super sensitive pointer in “advanced” mode
- Beam stacking ala Super Metroid
- Back tracking in MP3:C makes more sense than in previous Primes
- Extra development time was to give the game more polish. Nintendo wanted “Twilight Princess” levels of polish. Game is focused on Metroid fans and hardcore gamers, but still accessible to newcomers due to controls.
- Larger environments, bloom lighting, better textures than Prime 2

Play magazine says that MP3 could be the biggest FPS revolution since Halo. Just a couple more months to wait and find that out for ourselves
