Okay, so we pretty much know for a fact that Nintendo doesn't know or care to make another good Metroid anymore. So now we have other people trying to copy the formula for their own games, with varying degrees of success. Which is your favorite Metroid clone and why?

NuDoom because it's the closest thing we'll ever get to a new Metroid Prime

is axiom verge actually good?
Landon Barnes
I honestly couldn't tell you, since I don't own the game myself. I'm going to change that once I pirate it on my Vita. From what I've heard though, it's alright.

how the hell can you like metroid
all you do is run around trying to find a door and having to remember spots to go back to once you get so called powerup
sub-par

Metroid is fun in part because you have to remember the map, it introduces a sense of exploration and mystery. Just play any modern corridor shooter if you prefer that shit jesus.
I need an user who likes metroid to give me a quality rating on axion verge, not a faggot who doesnt understand the troids

Actually you don't know that for a fact, and to say you do is retarded, they could have Prime 4 half way through development right now but you would have no idea because Nintendo are too secretive when it comes to these things.
Cave Story is the best Metroid like game that isn't a Fan remake.

While it's fairly solid where it counts (the upgrades are creative and try their best not to ape metroid, the glitch aspect is cool, good soundtrack) there's something that just feels wrong about axiom verge. It's hard to pinpoint, but I think level design is mostly to blame. It's hard to remember spots you have to backtrack to, the map feels both bloated and restricted at the same time. Also some weapons are absolutely useless, and most shit you find being fragments of stat upgrades isn't helping.
That said it's a one-man-army game, so holding it up to the standards of metroid is unfair. Too bad that's what the reviews did.

You can't hope to blatantly clone a game in more ways than mechanical and not be compared.

It's already been confirmed by Nintendo themselves that there's no new Metroid in production despite that secret ending in Federation Force, so don't be a fag.
