Top 10 Wii Games of 2007 - #5

submitted by Mitchell on 12.27.2006 in Videos/Gaming, Technology

At #5 on my list is a fairly obvious choice for my Top 10; it’s Metroid Prime 3: Corruption.

Metroid has always managed to deliver immersive gameplay, whether it is in the form of sidescrollers or first-person shooters. Fans were skeptical at first when Prime was announced for the GameCube. Luckily, not only did Retro Studios manage to pull it off, they also created a game that was placed alongside the GCN elite. Can they do it again? Mitchell, says yes.

Nintendo has stated several times that the Wiimote’s purpose is to act as an extension of the player’s arm / canon. Needless to say, expectations for Corruption are very high. The 360’s lineup of shooters are tough to contend with. Can Metroid Prime 3 hold a candle to Gears of War? We’ll find out sometime next year.
