I love the plot, without that I don't think it's as meaningful.

Can you imagine what the game would be like without the story?

What would Samus be fighting for...?
Why would it even matter if the Chozo's died....?
All those Space Pirates and other enemies....what are there plans?
Ect. ect. the list goes on.

I also love the plot because you find out more information about what happen(s/ed) and what may come if the future.

-In each game it seems like it answers questions as well as leaving you with questions.

I love the story, that’s what made really in love with the game.

To tell you the truth, the first time I even became interested in Metroid was when...

I got a 'Samus trophie' in 'Super Smash Bros. Melee'. lol. sweatdrop

That told me alot about what her life was like...ect.
So I told myself that I was gonna buy a Metriod game and play it and see if I like it.

-And you know what? I love it! cool

I love the back-tracking. It always means that I have another chance to search for more secrets through the area.

That's why the exploration is my favorite part of the games.

Cool a** music... One thing I love.
Kick a** design?... Another thing.
Female main character... The next.
Super Cool bosses? Yeah... Another thing!
Storyline/ Plot? Oh hell yeah!


Hearing the SPLAT sound after you blast a Zoomer... Priceless... There are some things Money can't buy. For everything else, there's Brinstar's Master Card.

The amazing bosses AND the fact that the worlds are sooo expansive.

Indeed, the exploration is what attracts me to Metroid.
Compaired to Halo, Metriod is superior in many ways. You actually need to think before you run and jump into action. In Halo, its just run and kill. Metroid is more complex, because you have so much to explore, and many puzzles to solve.

Honestly, before I got Super Smash Bros. Melee, I had NO CLUE who Samus was and I thought she was a guy! Now my name is metroidmania and I have like every Metroid game ever made! ('cept for Super Metroid crying )

Anyways though, my favortie part about Metroid is having this weak little Samus at the beginning of the game, and then when you get to the end she's like practically invincible! I think finding power-ups (and seeing what they look like for the first time) are like the most awesome thing ever!

Well... plot-wise, I think Giovanni pretty much covered everything. The main thing that keeps me playing is the exploration though. Besides the fact that I do like having a large world full of stuff to find (and interesting things the kill), I think that the Metroid series does it better than almost any other.

It's definitely awesome to start off with a Samus that can get taken down by a stray Space Pirate, and by the end of the game a whole army can't touch you. The boss battles, even the really nasty ones like Boost Guardian in MP2, are some of the most fun you can have killing aliens and robots.

I'm more of a recent fan, though I did know about Samus and who she was prior to Super Smash Bros. (blame Nintendo Power). I have both Metroid Primes, at least. Haven't gotten around to Fusion and Zero Mission, and while I got a used copy of Super Metroid a few years ago, everytime I get pretty far into it the save file goes bye-bye, thus I haven't had any motivation to beat it after about three or four lost files. I haven't played the original, and Metroid II never caught my interest when I did play it.
