...eh...possibly but that's a risk I'd be willing to take.
I have many moods...
Mostly which center around "sensible and thoughtful" or "random and stupid".
I never have the same mood. It switches with every post.

Wouldn't shinespark replace Screw Attack then?
If I were to trip, would the result be an explosion or a duck?
Will make plots for food.

Not necassarily. Albeit true that, considering how the screw attack works it could be equal or superior in function, There would still be room for the screw attack (don't have to get the running buildup) and besides, if they do program a shinespark it might give them an excuse to make screw attack actually steer beyond the point of 2 inches.

The screw attack is pretty amazing. It can turn on a dime. Albeit, it can't turn back the other way and anything wider than a dime you're pretty much gonna crash.

IMO, the only things amazing about Screw Attack are the Wall Jump and how fast it dispatches Rezbits. :twisted:

They should've never added the walljump to the Screw Attack. I think that Samus should've beenable to do it automatically as in Super Metroid. If she could learn how to run faster maybe she'd be able to jump those walls.
Hello China? I have something you may want...that's right ALL the tea.

Well the problem with being in 1st-person view is that you can't tell she's actually going about as fast as she does in 2D.

Wall Jump would be almost impossible to implement in first person. That's why the just added it to Screw Attack.

Eh...First person can be difficult to work with at times but the weapon system is awesome. Could probably do a sort of 007 everything-or-nothing type engine though.

To me, the Echoes Visor is one of the best items. It's awesome how everything from swishing branches to minor movements from the enemy makes sound waves. What was also cool were the Key Beam Posts and the Key Doors, which make certain sounds and in a certain order.

One thing I'm mad about is how the Key Doors were hardly ever used! Only once or twice can I remember actually needing the ability to open those doors, which always contained something optional and not something required for the game...
Don't ask what happened to my avatar.

I TOLD YOU NOT TO ASK! >_<

The echo visor has headache potential albeit.
