Zero Mission may not be commonly lauded as the greatest entry in the Metroid series, but what it does is refine the formula into what I believe to be the greatest display of the pure essence of the franchise. It modernizes the first game, adding so much in what should be considered the template of a perfect remake. New enemies, QOL improvements, additional lore, new and returning upgrades, flawless controls, and the freedom to go about how you want to play thanks to the variety of sequence breaks, which reward the application of game knowledge. I've sunk so much time into this game that there's a section of my brain practically dedicated to it, and I can't say that for a lot of things in my life.
one of the greatest games from my childhood I use to play it for hours the gameplay was fluid the boss fights were amazing the music was awesome too I became a Metroid fan thanks to this game!!

Prince of Persia: The Forgotten Sands
Prince of Persia: The Forgotten SandsPrince of Persia: The Forgotten Sands was a game made for the Nintendo Wii by Ubisoft Qubec. The game features a completely different storyline and setting from other versions of the game (under the same title), as well as totally different gameplay mechanics, as the game makes use of the Wii's motion control as well as conventional buttons. The Wii version of the game also features local multiplayer, in which a second player can aid the first player by freezing on-screen enemies or traps for them, or helping to unlock secret areas. Prince of Persia: The Forgotten Sands for the Wii also features some bonus content, such as unlockable in-game character skins, art galleries, developer diaries, bonus levels, and the original 1992 version of Prince of Persia. The game is popularly referred to as having last generation graphics and dull combat, but was generally praised for its unique and creative gameplay mechanics as well as its overall strong production values, including its unique storyline.
