Apparently this is a fake review... According to other sources anyway. It does look convincing, and I first thought, shit if Nin Power gives it 8 Giant Bomb will give it a 6.5 - 7, and Gamespot, well depeing on CNET will give it around the same, and IGN, probably a 10 and a 5 page review...(or maybe a 7 :) )
But yeah apparently its bullshit. And if you read it, it does sound legitimate, however why would a Nintendo Power reviewer compare it to Halo and mention Bungie Studios, or say things like "Would The Conduit make as big big an impact on a competing console? Probably not"...
Nintendo Power would not write something that portrays competing consoles as better....Would they?
I dunno, I reserve my opinion until Gertsmann gets his hands on it.:)
To be honest, if I hadn't read the title, I would not have thought it was a Metroid game either. The opening title Team Ninja makes you initially think its not, and Samus looks way different with the short Final Fantasy Clou-esque hair do. But I think this increased the element of surpirse. I think it is a great direction to take and hopefully one that plays as well as Ninja Gaiden. It looks very much like NG, and personally speaking the previous Metroid games look better graphically but its still early days.
I'm looking forward to this one. Hopefully nintendo keeps a tight reign on the development so it isn't too far removed or shit compared to the previous installments.
