I fear that they're going to fuck up the new Metroid BAD. Last I heard, they're turning the damn game into Goldeneye. WTF? If anyone knows any good news about the Metroid game, let me know. Because my gut feeling is that they're destroying Metroid. I've looked into these Retro guys and I really can't find any credentials even. WTF have these guys worked on? I mean, they come out of nowhere, and now they're being trusted with METROID!?

that video was so odd. it's a cool intro, followed by 5 seconds of actual footage....and the gameplay looked very strange. i can't even describe it, but samus looked clunky, the enemies swarmed too much, and there seemed to be just a lot of noise for no real reason
