IGN loves Metroid Prime 3

We’re pretty sure this will be the first of many laudatory Corruption reviews that hit the web.

IGN has it and you had to wait until today, unless you were one of the lucky Nintendonistas who scored a disc over the weekend. How much does IGN love thee, Samus? 9.5 ways for sure:

We rated the original Metroid Prime a 9.8 on GameCube and had Corruption been the first game in the series it’d have been worthy of the same score. As it stands, Samus Aran’s latest adventure is a spectacular must-own experience and one of Wii’s defining games. Stop reading and buy it.

Overall the alpha geeks at IGN lauded Metroid Prime 3, particularly for its use of voice acting, something Nintendo has tended not to emphasize in games.
