There's this video game out there called Metroid Prime. I don't know how popular it is, so if none of you have heard of it, I'm sorry. On the other hand if everyone's heard of it, cool! I'm trying not to sound too hipster right now.
"There's this great game but you've probably never heard of it. It's called Metroid Prime. But the original game was way better than 'The Original'." I'm just making that up.
Anyway.
From what I've seen of the game it's pretty cool. I myself am awful at video games. I've only ever finished Aladdin's Math Quest.
My point is, I've only seen a little bit of Metroid Prime actually played out. From that little bit I've gathered that you're this badass chick named Samus who's got to go around shooting aliens with her arm-that's-actually-a-gun oh also PS your arm-gun can unlock some doors oh also PPS you're a contortionist.
Yeah...
You've got the super duper outer space suit that's got all kinds of visors and guns and it even lets you squeeze your whole body into this tiny little ball.
I estimated the scale here, but this is about how it looks in the game.
That's called the Morph Ball. It's somehow got Samus inside of it, and it can roll around and it can change direction and stop and basically looks like a little gold hamsterball.
Which brings me to my next point!
I really really really want to paint my hamsterball like the Morph Ball and put Bernadette inside of it and then laugh.
I do.
Hello!
ReplyDeleteI don't remember where I read this (in the game somewhere, I think), but for some reason I think the morph ball is one meter wide. Also, the original was just called "Metroid" and was released on the NES. http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/0/07/NES_Metroid.png
