A Great First Person Shooter\Adventure game
A great First Person Shooter/Adventure game. Even a decade and a half after it's release I still enjoyed exploring all the tunnels and open areas of the game. Obviously the game shows it's technical limitations from being on the GameCube, but if you can look past the older graphics (Which are still superb) you'll find a game that is super polished. The controls take some getting used to as it doesn't operate like a now traditional twin stick FPS but it still works well, but I will admit it isn't perfect.

5.0 out of 5 stars Perfection
Reviewed in the United States on July 12, 2007
Verified Purchase
I'll be honest, I absolutely hate 1st-person shooters for console systems, but Nintendo really got it right with this one.

There were no Metroid games for the N64, so the bar for this game was set by Super Metroid--one of the best games Nintendo has ever released. On top of that, this was the first attempt at a 3D version of a Metroid game. Naturally, I was worried that it would disappoint. It doesn't.

The controls are brilliant. By the time you get started, it'll take you all of 15 minutes to master the controls, which gives you the rest of the time to marvel at the stunning graphics, seductive soundtrack, and brilliant level design.

Words can't adequately describe the look and feel of this game. Turn off the lights, get comfortable, turn the game on, and you'll get sucked right in. The game designers have successfully created a world that you will feel totally immersed in. Just don't forget to eat food and take bathroom breaks.

Stop reading this review and buy it already. You won't be disappointed.

One of the best games ever on Nintendo. I was a massively huge Super Metroid fan on the Super Nintendo, so when this came out it forced me to go ahead and purchase the Gamecube. I enjoyed many hours of 1st, beating the game, then 2nd, learning all the ways to do sequence breaking and get items early. That was a lot of fun in itself; there are plenty of sequence breaking opportunities. Wish I still had the Gamecube to play it again.

5.0 out of 5 stars One of the best Gamecube games
Reviewed in the United States on April 10, 2009

I bought this when it first came out, and it was revolutionary at the time. Few (if any) games at the time had graphics this good. The controls were different than most FPSs, using a lock-on system, but I quickly adapted to it. The platforming, adventuring, and gameplay are all excellent. The environments were extremely convincing, and this game actually involved me emotionally in the situations I faced. It is one of the best games ever made for the Gamecube. If you haven't played it, you should give it a try.

The game was listed as acceptable, with just the disk and none of the original packaging. Instead I got a game that is in much better shape, and has the complete packaging and manuals inside! So happy to be able to re-experience this game and keep myself busy during this quarantine. Delivery was faster than expected as well! Thank you!

Couldn't be read by my gamecube, no matter how many times I've tried. I don't have any issue with any other game I know for it, just this one. Makes it past the a few logos but won't proceed to even load the game menu. After seeing original packaging and original manual I was very excited and expected great things. I was, however, left very disappointed. I can't give it higher than a 1 star on good packaging alone, I expect the game to work.

I can't really give an unbiased review of this game, as it was a childhood favourite of mine. For someone who loved Metroid in their childhood, playing Prime again is like meeting an old friend, as sad as that sounds. It just left that great an impression on me! As for the order, it arrived in good time and was in good condition, it ran perfectly fine.
