Metroid Prime 4: Beyond Is Horny, Clunky, And Kinda Brilliant (Yes, Including The Vagina Doors)
87
ScoreOut of 100
Pros
- +Bold, bizarre, and memorable visual design, including the now-infamous organic doors
- +Classic Metroid Prime exploration and atmosphere still feel fantastic
- +Nora Armstrong adds a much-needed emotional and character-driven layer to the universe
- +New voice work suggests a more human, evolving take on Samus
- +Control options allow you to fix the worst input decision yourself
Cons
- -Morph Ball jump being mapped differently from normal jump by default is baffling
- -Anatomical-looking doors may feel distracting or tonally weird for some players
- -Longtime fans may resent the change away from Jennifer Hale’s iconic vocal presence
- -Occasional UX and design decisions feel stuck in an older era of FPS design
