I didn't find them boring just didn't find them very Metroid like, what with their slow ass Samus. I'd be happy if Retro didn't touch Metroid again for the rest of my life. Unless they wanted to make a 2D Metroid featuring agile Samus.I must be the only one that found the Prime series boring.

I'd really like this to be a third person, futuristic, sand-box game that is huge on customization like Saint's Row. It's getting hard to fight hypehypehype.
