Overhead games?




Posted by GameMiestro

Do you think future Metroid games should be overhead, or continue to be a FPS?

I personally would like an overhead style, it would make morph ball control easier, and controlling an actual body feels much more real than controlling a floating gun.

Overhead? Like the 2D Zelda games? No, no, I'd prefer side-scrolling goodness. And I imagine only the Prime series will be first-person.

Overhead, are you kidding me?



Either way, I'm kinda hoping for a first-person/third-person option in the next series.

I want to see a 3D sidescroller with cel-shaded graphics, personally.

Put it on the DS then.


Plus, the new Metroid series will probably start on the Revolution. So it would make little sense for them to forego first-person when their controller is perfect for it.

Ha ha, the touch screen could be used to equip/unequip stuff, a la Super Metroid.

...They'd better port that.

I figure it wouldn't work well with a top-down perspective. But I don't know if I like FPS or side scroller better.
