"Horrible...I am disgusted with myself for spending $2 on it!!!"

Quite possibly the worst game I have EVER played in my life. I understand it is for Gameboy and its games don't have the quality of console games, but keeping that in mind, this game is still horrible! I has stupid graphics, no story, horrible control, maybe the worst sound I have ever heard in a videogame, and on top of that, is deathly impossible to beat.

Metroid for the NES was good. Super Metroid for the SNES was good. They should have stopped there. This game puts shame upon the good (or now I should say former good) name of the Metroid genre. I am honestly sorry for the people who created this game. There is no way I would ever want a game like this to have been made (in any part) by me.

I think the major problems of this game cannot be singled out, it is just bad as a whole. It is no at all innovative, it is boring after 15 minutes, and I swear it's difficulty is giving me an ulcer. Now if you haven't reconized it already, I am annoyed beyond belief and the difficulty of this game. Do not get me wrong here, I LOVE games that are difficult. Difficulty adds fun and satisfaction in playing the game. But this game is impossible. If one thing on Earth was found to be the leading stress causer, it could very eaisly be this game.

I really don't think I have anything good to say about this game except that Samus is cool. I know it has nothing to do with the game or gameplay, but Samus is just a cool chick. The only reason I gave this game a 2 instead of a 1 is because Samus is cool. Without Samus, I would have probably gone insane and made it my lifes mission to seek out and destroy every existing copy of this game. So if you haven't found out yet, DO NOT BUY THIS GAME!!! DO NOT EVEN WASTE A MINUTE PLAYING IT!!!

Graphics: 4/10
For Gameboy, the graphics are not horrible. They are simply bad and they hurt your eyes to even look at.

Gameplay: 0/10
I don't even understand why they bothered making this game. There is no gameplay in it at all. Go stare at a wall and get more entertainment.

Sound: 1/10
I don't even think there is music in this game. I could swear the only sound in this game is your laser firing.

Challange: 0/10
TO HARD!!! AS SIMPLE AS THAT!!!

Fun Factor: 1/10
This only received a 1 because it was cool to shoot evil things for 5 minutes. After that I was bored out of my mind. Again, staring at a wall is paradise compared to this.

Samus: 10/10
The only reason I gave this game a 2. Samus rocks!!!
