IGN - 9.5
1UP - 9.0

Looks like I'll be playing with my Wii on Tuesday. I'll finally be able to add a game to my Wii game library which consists of Zelda and Wii Play.

Anyone else going to pick this up?

Picked this bad boy up from the local wal-mart last night after school and finally got to play it today after work. Prime 3 is awesome. The story is GREAT and the controls are fairly easy to use. Overall presentation is thru the roof which is very nice considering the amount of crap looking games for the Wii. I'm so glad I have a reason to play my Wii again. Retro is one talented developer.

I might get a Wii when it drops to $100. $250 is too much for a console that is basically a gamecube with a new controller.

I can wait 2 -3 yrs to get a Wii and then get all the good games (Mario, Smash Bros, Strikers, Metroid) for $20...

It's twice as powerful as a gamecube, and it'll never be 100 dollars..

Metroid ftw, I might go buy it right now..

Twice as powerful as a gamecube :roll:

The gamecube was $200 when it was released and it dropped to $100. So I don't see why not the Wii could do the same. I guess realistically it will drop to $129.99 like the Playstation 2.

The Wii won't be a $100 because of how well its selling. Some are sayings its already passed the 360 in sales so don't expect a $100 Wii for YEARS or at all. As for the GC being a $100, they weren't exactly flying off the shelves @ that price. It's Apples (Wii) and Oranges (GC) and i'm sure with the success of the Wii Nintendo sees it the same way.

The Wii will drop and it will happen over time (2 yrs, 3 yrs, 4 yrs). Look at the playstation 2, it is the biggest selling console of all time and yet it dropped in price from $299.99 when it was released, all the way down to the current price of $129.99.

This is an apples (Wii) and apples (ps2) comparison... :wink:

This game is great! :o The graphics aren't up there with Bioshock, but the gameplay and atmosphere are unmatched. I give it 5 out of 5!

I would, but it says you don't have the game! You might need to set something in options before I can send you stuff.

Although this achievement stuff is kind've a ripoff of the 360, it's actually much better cause you actually GET stuff for the achievements.

Yeah I didn't have the WiiConnect24 set-up for Prime. It's setup now and I sent you a few vouchers.
