Episode 12: Metroid Fusion
Gary Butterfield and Kole Ross kvetch about Metroid Fusion.
What began as the most divisive game WOFF has ever covered quickly became the game we loved to bash. Metroid Fusion is the black sheep of the Metroid series, having broken many conventions and flown in the face of what people loved about Super Metroid. Turns out, it’s not these strange design decisions we disliked, but other more fundamental flaws. Not even close encounters with the infamous SA-X could salvage this one.
