Metroid: Other M review round-up is go

By Stephany Nunneley

Reviews for Nintendo’s Yoshio Sakamoto and Tecmo’s Yusuke Hayashi collaboration on Metroid: Other M started bombarding the net today; we’ve rounded up the scores for you below the break.

The general consensus is it’s a good game. Scores are coming in at mostly eights and sevens, with a few low numbers – such as G4’s 2/5  – thrown in for a palate cleansing.

Metorid: Other M is out on August 31 in the US and September 3 in the UK.

As usual, if you have a review to add, please do so in the comments section.
