Metroid: Other M is out this month and is it looking good? Oh yes! But how does it play? Well, Cort at GoNintendo has written some impressions. Here’s a quick excerpt:

“I frankly don’t remember all the names and details, because I was a bit preoccupied absorbing the experience and trying not to fail miserably that I couldn’t stop and write it all down. What I can answer for you is what exactly Other M feels like to someone like me: a gamer with medium to good skill, doesn’t care for first-person anything except my own real life eye sockets, and a fan of old school Metroid… Bottom line is that my skepticism going into the session was completely washed away in less than an hour. This game is going to have a lot of fans, and I am now one of them.”
