Metroid Prime 3: Corruption (Wii) If you think you knew what it felt like to be the bounty hunter behind the visor, think again. The Galactic Federation?s network computer, Aurora Unit, is suddenly and completely corrupted with something like a virus. The Federation believes Space Pirates may be behind the problem and are soon attacked. Samus and other hunters leap to their defense only to find that the enemy they face is Dark Samus, armed with immense power that no one can withstand. Players control Samus by moving with the Nunchuk and aiming with the Wii Remote allowing for a level of immersion unlike anything they have ever experienced. Through the eyes of Samus, players experience a quantum leap in first-person control as they wield the Wii Remote, the ultimate device for the first-person shooter genre. Samus will employ well-known power-ups like the Grapple Beam and Morph Ball, as well as a bunch of new surprises, to help her survive her coming trials. The game also incorporates a new system involving Phazon. If you fill Samus’ Phazon supply to a certain level, Samus will temporarily go into hyper mode, a state in which she can pull off incredible feats. On the flip side, if she exceeds the maximum Phazon level, she’ll perish. Also, for the first time in the Metroid series, Samus’ ship will be used in active game play
Customer Review: Everything i hoped for and so much more
Despite the wii’s huge success, you can’t help but feel a little sorry for the poor machine. Since its release, external games producers have been making garbage games (yes, im looking at you, ubisoft, activision etc) hoping to make some money from the wii’s success. Only a few companies, such as capcom have taken care.
Thankfully, Metroid Prime 3 corruption is now here, and its the best wii game yet. (alongside zelda)
Well, without giving away too much, let me tell you about it.
This is the conclusion to the prime trilogy, and if you played prime 2, youll know samus became infected with phazon. This is the main focus of the game. At the beggining, the galactic federation calls together a group of bounty hunters, samus is one of them. The Galactic federation needs your help…but i’ll let you find out the rest for yourself.
While the story will keep you interested through out the game, it’s the controls that make it really shine. Until now, the FPS genre has been badly represented for the wii. Red steel was glitchy, Call of duty didnt really feel right, and all the others were pretty much the same as this.
Metroid prime 3 however, makes a grand change to this. The controls are smooth, never pausing or glitching, and aiming just feels so good. After just a few hours with corruption, it makes playing a shooter with analogue sticks feel like a thing of the past,the aiming is that good. The other controls feel intuitive too, you will do lots of pulling switched and pushing buttons all with the mote in the game. for instance, there are many parts where you need to pull a switch, which is done by pulling the mote away from the screen, twisting it clockwise, and pushing it back. As long as you are sat the right distance and right level from the TV, this will work very well. The grapple beam is also used by flicking the nunchuk at the target, and then pulling back to rip shields from enemies, pulling levers etc.
Well, now you have the skinny on how the game works, the features will make you smile too. There are tons of new upgrades for your powersuit, which is also upgraded near the start of the game, with a phazon enhancement device (PED) allowing you to enter hypermode, making you super powerful. The cost of this is that it will drain an energy tank.
Samus’s ship plays a key role in the game too, unlike the prior two prime games where you roamed one huge confusing world, corruption is divided into planets and other areas, making the game much easier to navigate. Your ship takes you from planet to planet. Your ship also allows you to save, replenish ammo, and do even more nice tricks. The command visor is obtained at the start of the game, which allows you to call in your ship to land on new landing sites, and do more features like call it in for bombing runs, allowing you to obliterate certain targets. There are more things your ship can do, but i wont spoil it for you.
In the game, you will collect vouchers which allow you to buy new content in the extras menu. You can buy artwork, music, and most interestingly, a screenshot tool and stickers for your ship. there is much more too.
You can get red, blue, gold and green vouchers. Green vouchers initially come in the form of grey friend vouchers. You then send these to your wii friends over wiiconnect24 so they can convert them to credit, and vice versa. There are no other wifi options in corruption, which seems like a missed opportunity, but the unlockable content adds plenty of replay value.
Well, i would go into more detail, but i think i have said enough.
CONCLUSION: Corruption is perfectly weighted, its a much neater package then the prior 2 prime games, the controls are perfect, and there are so many elements that put other shooters such as Halo 3 to shame. Aimless wondering is made a thing of the past thanks to clear objectives and the continue points help curve frustration when you die, meaning you spawn there rather than the last save point. The lack of online deathmatches is dissapointing, but when the single player game is this good, with so much unlockable content, it really doesnt matter. 97%
P.S. I recommend you go straight to veteran difficulty, its much more fun and challenging than the others.
Customer Review: This game rocks !!
I received my copy of this game first thing this morning, Friday, and couldn’t wait to get my chores done so I could sit down and start playing it. I finally did at 12:30 lunchtime. It’s now 02:49, Saturday. Admittedly I’ve had to have breaks to make the tea, feed and play with the pups, walk the dogs etc, the usual stuff, but all the while I’ve been itching to get back on the game. I’ve had to MAKE myself come up to bed or I’d have been at it all night.
This game is certainly addictive. It’s reminiscent of a mixture of Half Life and Project Eden - both on PS - and I loved both for different reasons. Metroid Prime 3 takes the best of both and melds them perfectly.
The controller and nunchuck are excellent tools for this game. For example, I love the way you turn handles or throw the grappler and yank it back (I won’t say how), to name a couple.
I expected the puzzles to be harder but I didn’t expect to have to kill so many ‘creatures’. It can get quite intense at times. The bosses so far have been pretty simple to work out but I’m hoping that will change.
Thank goodness this game came along because I was seriously thinking of getting rid of my Wii (I’ve only had it a couple of weeks) due to all the kiddie games and sticking to my Playstation. There’s just not enough of this genre as of yet but if this game is a sign of what’s to come I think I’ll hang onto it for a while longer.
This is a MUST BUY if you want to get your teeth into to some real action.

Customer Review: Great but ot quite brilliant.
Techinically speaking the stand is brilliant, and for the money you’re paying for it, you couldn’t really ask for more. The nunchuck holders were a brilliant idea as well as the LED lights to show how much the remotes had charged up. These turned from red to orange to green once the remotes were fully charged. I also liked the blue LED stripe around the stand, but this is where the stand becomes a slight let down. There’s only one switch at the back of the unit to control everything. So, you decide that you want to turn on this blue LED band… well, the only way to do that is by turning on the fan first and then fullying flipping the switch to enable the LED to light up. This wouldn’t be so much of a problem but the fan is really quite noisy and unless you turn the sound up on you TV really quite loud, you’ll have a constant whirring sound drowning out your game audio. Other than that, this stand was a pretty good buy. Hope this review helps.
Customer Review: A practical all in one station for the wii at last
Ive had this station for a couple of months now and find it superb for storing your wii motes and nunchucks,it also charges your wii motes and has a cooling fan.The reason I give it four stars only is: - It comes with 2 pairs of rechargeble batteries enclosed in a white shell,where the batteries cannot be replaced. - even though it is a practical solution for the Wii,Im not too impressed with the design,but this is my opinion. -The manufactures should have given the option to switch the blue light on or off as it continously stays on. -You will need to buy a pair of penlight batteries for the cooling fan. On the positive side this station will keep your Wii area tidy and charged no doubt.A tip for storing your nunchucks is to rap the nunchuck cord round your finger and then insert the cord curled up in the nunchuck slot first with the usb connection sticking out through the slot provided and the nunchuck will sit in position easily.
