Metroid Prime 3: Corruption Details

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
