Two Good Hours - #28 - Metroid Prime Remastered

Metroid Prime Remastered was a surprise announcement at the 2.8.2023 Direct. It was kind of shocking to see all the love Metroid was getting in recent years. With the remake of Metroid II and the resurrection of Dread, now Metroid Prime one was getting a remaster on Switch? And with a same day release? With a physical release coming soon after that? It was all of a sudden a good thing to be a Metroid fan.

Admittedly, I wasn't a fan of Metroid. The original NES version proved to be too much of a challenge for little Don back in the day. However, Prime was a game changer. A super-atmospheric first-person shooter? Yes, please! (Plus, when I played Metroid: Zero Mission for the first time, I was a believer in Samus) So going back to this game after 15+ years was a treat. But how does it hold up compared to the original.

Folks, I know this is thrown around all the time. But for a first person shooter, it is one of the best. But am I looking at this through a rose-tinted visor?
