Is that how you feel about the Prime trilogy?
The Prime trilogy is the myriad of comic spin-offs.
Honestly, Metroid Other M or whatever is just causing me to kind of yawn. The rather bland Samus, the hyperkinetic editing of the trailer, and the emphasis on lots of stylized action and even what looks like a quick-time event. The backgrounds were also kind of generic sci-fi backgrounds, look like they could have been plucked from Phantasy Star Online or anywhere in the Prime series. I love Metroid, and I'm excited we're getting another following regular continuity(?), but I'd like to see more than a rather uninspiring trailer to get me fired up.
Actually, this almost describes my reaction to E3 this year. A glut of sequels, a few lame teasers (I'm looking at you, Metal Gear Solid Rising), and basically a trickle of information on games I already knew about. Stuff like Last Guardian and the Monkey Island series getting some love are the most exciting things I heard about. Borderlands looks interesting, if a little bit Fallout. Add to that a bunch of peripheral announcements, and it was all just kind of mundane some far.
