Halo 4 seems like Metroid...

Games Other Halo
1

After watching the E3 video with a friend of mine, they pointed out a good point. It sort of is like Metroid now. The Promethean Knights are sort of like Space Pirates, and then the “switching visor mode” part was sort of like one of Samus’s visor modes. I’m not saying I hate the game or am not going to buy it, just saying what I think about it right now.

Other than that though I think the game looks really epic and cannot wait for it to come out.

I’m not trying to complain about it, I like Metroid and Halo, I was just saying that I thought it sort of looked like Metroid.

No! It is NOT TURNING INTO ME-
Cheif turns into a ball and rolls around
Well a little…

i think alot of Sci-fi games inspired what we are seeing in Halo 4 i do agree if there is a ball AA I will lol

Why? In that they both wear a friggin’ suit? I didn’t see a bounty hunter flying through space fighting space pirates.

5

Yeah it does remind me of Metroid Prime a little probably because the level designer is the onne of Metroid Prime (I think). It’s not a bad thing in fact, it’s interesting.

Halo 4 is like Crysis!

At 6:36 the knight looks like a chozo.

Tbh most games are created because they take inspiration from others, so its not surprising games look the same.

10

I definitely agree, the Promethean knights are visually similar to Metroid Prime space pirates. They also remind me of the Guardians from Borderlands.

But… i could not care less. I have always played Halo more for its Multiplayer then Single player campaign.

11

The fact of it having some similarities to Prime makes it all the better to me.

12

Halo being more like Metroid is a good thing though.

13

I like the Metroid feel, it would be quite funny if there was a Samus Easter Egg.

I mean, why not? other than maybe copyright issues?

14

The Prometheans remind me of Metroid Prime, but the thing is, Metroid is awesome.

15

Now all we need is a multiplayer helmet that looks similar to Samus’

16

Well Metroid is a good game (aside from Other M and Hunters), plus some guys from Retro Studios work at 343, so :stuck_out_tongue:

I didn’t like Hunters because of it’s controls, maybe if they port it to the 3DS, with the dual slide pad, it would be perfect.

17

Well a developer(s) that worked on Metroid is/are working with 343 bringing over their experience so there’s no surprise there will be some similarities.

I like it though, but find it funny how people have gone form saying they’re copying COD to Metroid now.

People in space suits set in a sci-fi setting shooting aliens…
Really, the main reason are similar visuals…there were a lot of bad guys in Metroid that were yellow-ish orangy-glowy that spewed out gooiness of the same color as the Knights and crawlers in the video.
