Rocky and weird start that didn't feel very Metroidy (mainly due to the lack of total isolation) but it very quickly pulled itself together and returned to old form later on. Can't decide if the wiimote controls are a blessing or curse though....strafing is very nice. As is the ability to free aim. But lock on aim never fails...The final closing of the game was also a bit...not...metroidy. But all in all still awesome and good to see the universe ridd of phazon once and for all
