    I think the had the potential for being one of the best prime games. The levels themselves are great but the hud open world is bland as can be

    This game plays amazing on the switch 2. The graphics and controls are really well done. This takes me back to playing Metroid prime on the GameCube. The one thing that can be annoying is the soldiers that you have to help that team up with you. Samus has always been a lone protagonist so having another character there that sometimes talks way too much can be annoying. Also the desert in between areas can feel a little lifeless. These are small gripes though for an overall amazing game.

    It doesn’t really try to do much new to the formula. The psychic powers don’t do a ton but do spice things up sometimes. My only complaint is one of the NPCs, they get quite annoying at times.

    Although it’s not as good as the previous prime titles, prime 4 offers a new take to the serious. Only thing I would change is having more stuff in the Sol Valley as it is pretty lackluster in terms of content.

    It's definitely a good game, but you can notice the big band-aid between different ideas. The plot is ...... let's leave it like that. It has really great sound/music and great visuals on the different level environments.

    Great game, excellent graphics, and story. The overworld you travel in is a bit empty and the tasks you do there feel over repetitive, which is why it doesn't quite get 5 stars for me.

    I'd rank Prime 4 as my least favorite in the franchise. This very much feels like Metroid's version of 343's Halo game--which makes sense since a lot of ex-343 devs were hired by Retro Studios to work on Prime 4. Aesthetically and graphically, it really does resemble those 343 Halo games. While it's not a bad game, it's a disappointing one. The overworld is dull and offers nothing to do. This game didn't need an overworld. By comparison, the open world in Mario Kart World--which a lot of people didn't care for--offered more substance than Prime 4's does.

    Solid game. It does take advantage of the better graphics capable on the Switch 2. It's much more friendly to newer players of the series compared to the previous entries

    Some parts of the game are brilliant. Others a little messy. I didn't mind the NPCs until you have to keep them alive in one big boss battle and their ability to stay alive is terrible ending your game if they die.

    Very good game. I love the combat and boss design. Some of the design choices with exploring and progression let me scratching my head but these are mild annoyances in a really good game.

    If you’re concerned about this game because people are negative online about it, don’t be. This game is great. Is it the best Metroid Prime? No. Does it have flaws? Yes. But is it still a great game and very enjoyable? Absolutely

    [Employee of bestbuy] Stunning visuals, and great for any Metroid Prime fan. The desert can get a little repetitive but the main areas are fantastic.
