I'm getting pretty sick and tired of Gamespot!! (Metroid)

Seriously I think Gamespot should just drop dead. Like every Nintendo Review they give, they always bomb it. They always give it the lowest than all the other big gaming sites. I think they're a bunch of Microsoft's fanboys that just hate Nintendo! Today they gave Metroid Prime 3 8.5! (Twilight Princess got 8.8 (Wii) and 8.9(GC)) while IGN gave it 9.5 , 1up - 9, and Game Trailers - 9.6. I just got a copy of Metroid today and it is amazing! Probley the best Wii title so far! I really think Metroid should not get a score lower than 9, same with TP. The most funniest thing about Gamespot reviews is Warioware Twisted got the highest rating than all the other Wii games which was 9.1 I believe. Which is a load of bull, like wario is fun and all but really it's kind of a lazy title for Wii and defiantly not the best Wii game! Metroid is a defiantly MUST OWN for Nintendo Wii.

I only look at ratings if I am really unsure about a game.

GS definitely seems biased against Nintendo, but thats why I never follow their console reviews, I only agree with their PC reviews most of the time.

Metroid prime 3 rocks by the way. I have no doubt in my mind that you will be proven wrong. so far its already better than MP2, and it may be better than the first (i'll reserve that judgement for later)

Truth-to-be-told I honestly dunno what's so bad about getting like an 8.2 or something I mean like I never quite understood the good and bad game ratings but at least it didn't get like a 2.1 or something

I reckon ratings in general are pretty lame.

I always go straight to the conclusion to see whats "wrong" with the game. Usually if the game scores over 8 the bad points are fairly negligible.

Yeah for sure Prime 3 is BETTER than Prime 2, I'm having a blast with it now. I haven't finished the game yet but I like it as much as Prime 1. Plus There's not as much backtracking so far.

Metroid Prime 3 is a GREAT shooter. It's a lousy Metroid game. I wish I had more friends to send vouchers to, with. Who else has it? What's your wii friends code?

Well i think i added you already not hundred percent sure but here's my friend code 5416-8263-2332-8943, but I was just wondering you know all the awards/metals you get when you scan or kill something. They're four different types of metals like Red, Blue, Yellow, and Green, how do you get the Green metals? cause I really want to get a screenshot tool and possibly a Bobble head for my ship.

I'm assuming there is something in the log book or in your ship the leftmost button on the side (tells you % compete enemies killed etc, and at the beginning of the game there was a section called ?????????? so I'm assuming that may be metals?

i my code is below my sig, i don't know if i added you yet or not bentsea.

and MP3 is a great game in general. the most fun i've ever had in a FPS/FPA. sooo much to scan!
