Replay – Metroid II: Return of Samus
You may have read some of the mixed opinions and somewhat controversial reviews (including my own) for Metroid: Other M, the latest adventure starring Nintendo's popular female bounty hunter, Samus. For our first ever Replay featuring a portable game, we decided to take a look back at one of the few the entries in the series that has split fans: Metroid II for GameBoy.
Join Tim Turi, Bryan Vore, Ben Reeves, and I as we load up the GameBoy Color (via the Gamecube's GameBoy Player) and start exterminating a species. Is this NES sequel really as rough as the critics say, or is there still fun to be had with the Return of Samus?
