'''''Metroid Prime''''' is | '''''Metroid Prime''''' is a video game developed by Retro Studios and Nintendo for the [[Nintendo GameCube]]. It is the first 3D game in the Metroid series, the fifth main installment, and the first of the three part ''Metroid Prime'' storyline. | ||
Despite taking place in the first person view, ''Metroid Prime'' is classified by Nintendo as a first-person adventure rather than a first-person shooter, due to the large exploration component of the game and its precedence over combat. As with all Metroid games, players explore a large, open ended world as Samus Aran. Along the way, she finds power ups that improve her abilities, and clues about the mystery of the planet. The story is told organically; the story is revealed through scan logs, allowing the player to dive into the story or ignore it as they see fit. | |||
