Oh man I remember that whole series was marketed as “the big” Halo-killer at the time, they were so confident they even had some million(?) dollar prize for whoever found some sort of secret in the game. Not sure if that ever actually happened or if it was just a marketing ploy.
But the game itself was fun, and I remember being able to dual wield rocket launchers and had space magic, so I was happy haha.
While I would of course love a new ES game, I’m actually ok without the next ES game coming out anytime soon. As long as Starfield doesn’t disappoint, I think it will be good that the team has gotten to work on what clearly seems to be a bit of a passion project and got to go about creating a new world, lore, etc. Considering they have really only been working on Elder Scrolls / Fallout games since the early 00’s, I’m sure getting to branch out and make something new must have been a lot of fun. Just hoping it’s reflected in the finished project, otherwise, I think I’ll be more worried about the next Elder Scrolls than excited.
I cannot get over how good the Metroid Prime menu theme is. It’s both chill vibes and an absolute banger at the same time.
