Metroid Prime 3: Corruption, first impressions

GamePro talks about how Nintendo held an invite only game session. At the session apparently Metroid Prime 3 Corruption stole the show:

Metroid Prime 3: Corruption Definitely stole the the show. The graphics looked amazing — better than Halo 2 on the Xbox without a doubt — and the levels showed off sparkling details, proving the Wii is far more powerful than the Gamecube. Out of all the games we played, the Wii controller seemed most at home with Metroid.

News Observer tell us that Metroid Prime 3 Corruption takes full advantage of the Wii’s FPS controls. Also, includes info on Samus’ gun and news that you will be able to fly Samus’ ship!

“Corruption� takes full advantage of the first-person perspective to make you part of the action. There’s also a new hyper mode in which Samus can fill up her phazon supply to a certain point to push her into a heightened period of speed and power. Push the phazon limit too far and it will overload her armor and you’ll be seeing a game over screen. Finally, word is that at long last Samus’ ship will be used during gameplay, an intriguing twist that should cause the saliva glands of “Metroid� fans to work overtime.
