The editors liked

  • Fun exploration-based mechanics
  • An interesting story (once it ramps up).
  • A solid
  • Action packed addition to the Metroid franchise
  • While it isn't always successful
  • The attempt to delve into Samus' persona was also welcome.
  • Excellent combat
  • Boss fights are varied and challenging
  • Controls are both unique and responsive
  • Enviroments are good looking
  • Searching for hidden items is rewarding.
  • Simple but exciting combat
  • New and old abilities come together flawlessly
  • The look
  • Sound
  • And feel of the game is fresh
  • Considerably longer than most Metroid games at roughly 10 hours
  • Appropriately difficult with lots of hidden powerups to find
  • A fun and innovative game with impressive graphics engaging story and a good combination of nostalgic nods and modern game play.

The editors didn't like

  • First-person mode feels woefully forced and unnecessary
  • Resulting in uneven gameplay.
  • Deviates from established franchise formula in several key areas to negative effect
  • Short main campaign mode
  • Story is heavyhanded.
  • Unskippable cutscenes lead to uneven pacing
  • Lowresolution textures.
  • Unskippable cutscenes of an overlymelodramatic story
  • Some loading issues
  • Questionable choice of control scheme
  • Forced gameplay segments interrupt the pace.
  • Long cut scenes and mid-game controller flipping that will greatly frustrate some gamers.

  • The moderately skilful fusion of perspectives and return to oldschool exploration
  • Samus’ voice acting and occasionally awkward controls
  • Metroid Other M may not be the best game in the series but fans will still lap it up...

  • Great graphics
  • Fiddly controls
  • This is a game that will probably go down in history as an oddball curio rather than a bona-fide Metroid classic...

  • After finishing the story in under eight hours with only 22 per cent of items found, we were certainly pleased to see that one of the greatest, most thoughtfully designed Metroids we’ve ever had the pleasure of playing still had much more to offer. 9.3...

  • Metroid Other M est un très bon épisode et cette nouvelle version Wii U est une très bonne occasion de rejouer ou découvrir notre belle Samus. Si la maniabilité m'a parfois posé problème, ce Metroid Other M est vraiment excellent et je le recommande vivem...

  • Abstract:  Changement de perspective pour la série Metroid confiée à la Team Ninja pour cet épisode Other M qui, sans éviter les erreurs de parcours, est difficilement critiquable tant il est agréable à jouer......

  • Abstract:  Metroid: Other M è l'ultimo episodio di una saga pluridecennale, che è cresciuta insieme a Super Mario e si è evoluta nel tempo: dalle due alle tre dimensioni ha cambiato faccia (senza perderla), e adesso prova un inedito mix tra presente e passato Il mec...

  • fetzige, schnelle Action, gelungene Junp-n-Run-Elemente, Gegnertypen müssen unterschiedlich ausgeschaltet werden, knackige Bossgegner, gute Wii-Grafik
  • Auto-Aiming sorgt für eintöniges Dauerfeuern, Nur Stillstand in der Ego-Perspektive, dadurch schmerzliche Unterbrechung des Spielflusses, Rätsel zu schnell zu eintönig
  • zu Metroid: Other M aus. Die schnelle und zackige Action dürfte zwar Fans und Veteranen der Serie begeistern, doch auf der anderen Seite schien Team Ninja selbst nicht zu wissen, in welche Richtung es Metroid: Other M entwickeln soll. Im Rahmen der klass...

  • Team Ninja ist es hervorragend gelungen, eine neue Art von Metroid-Spiel zu programmieren, kommt aber (verständlicherweise) nicht an die epische "Metroid Prime Trilogy" heran. Diese Tatsache hindert "Other M" aber auf gar keinen Fall daran, eines der ...

  • Metroid: Other M wird den Erwartungen gerecht: Es macht viel Spaß, die gut erzählte Geschichte mitzuverfolgen und die spannenden Kämpfe zu bestreiten. Manchen Spielern wird der Schwierigkeitsgrad zwar sauer aufstoßen, da sich Metroid: Other M aber an e...

  • eine Hommage an die Metroid Teile der Vergangenheit, beeindruckende, filmreife Zwischensequenzen, sehr gute und stimmige Sprachausgabe, sorgfältige deutsche Synchronisation, man lernt die Hauptfigur besser kenne, beim Aufrüsten wird der Sammler Instinkt geweckt
  • Ingame Grafik nicht auf dem aktuellsten Stand, bei einigen Sprungpassagen stört der Kamerawinkel
