Review: Super Metroid

I love Super Metroid because of the atmosphere (in the main arising from the ingenious soundtrack), pacing and great expanding control. Great game. I tend not to like games that are adventures and are a "play through to the end" thing - but there are two games like that I have played to completion - Zelda : A Link to the Past and Super Metroid. Once I played these everything that followed just seemed to recycle their design - even modern games, and since it isn't a style I'm into they remain the only two I completed.

I hate Super Metroid because it ruined another franchise I love - Castlevania. Once that series went "Metroid" I lost interest.

Thanks for reading.  Why do you not like castlevania?  I find those fun as well.

What a masterpiece. To me is an easily 10 out of 10. Super Metroid has given to me something that no other game has. Awesome review!

Love Castlevania - at least I did when it was a linear game. Symphony of the Night is a cross between Super Metroid and Castlevania and every game since has followed that pattern. I prefer my Castlevania to be linear.

Super Castlevania IV is the best.
