THere is some messed up stuff on here. For example, Super Mario Bros in 5 min 10 seconds heh.

Additional trivia, in the video game business - these are called "The critical path" =)

I have just started playin metroid prime (I bought a GameCube this week) and here was my mini review in my blog:

Quote:

What is there to say about Metroid Prime? Well, to sum it up eloquently in two words: "Freaking Godlike". Retro Studios did the near impossible. They took the classic Metroid series (All of which have aged remarkably well) and turned it into a 3D shooter that doesn't fall prey to the many quirks of FPS games. The controls are beautiful (albiet disconcerting at first) and there are so many subtle graphic touches that make playing it an most blissful experience. Greg Kasavin sums it up nicely in his review over at Gamespot. Eternal Darkness I have not yet had a chance to play as I have been too busy with Metroid Prime. I have seen it in action though and I do look forward to playing it when I am done.
