I have played, at some point in my life, each of the titles in the Metroid series. Thus far, I had not considered myself a Metroid fan, partially because I had never delved deep enough into each title that I could have completed them. However, after having purchased my GameBoy Advance SP, I was intrigued by the in-depth story-line and steller graphics of Metroid Fusion. I decided I would give it a try, and I have not had a moment of regret since I purchased it. I was engulfed in the game for five hours until I finally completed it, truly feeling like I had done the universe a favor in stopping the X-Parasites. But I did not feel I could settle with a mere 46% completion rate, I wanted the 100%. It took me an additional four hours to accomplish this feat, and again I felt like I had accomplished something great. This Metroid incorporates a plot unrivaled by any other Metroid game, and also far surpasses that of many other titles. I give this game a 10 and would reccomend it to anyone who owns a GBA SP (I specify SP because the dark caverns may be difficult to see with only a GBA).
GREAT GAME!!!
