This game Metroid Prime 3: Corruption features the control system which is founded on the Nunchuk and Wii Remote systems geared for Wii format play. Full voice acting is available on this Wii-format game, which makes it different from the other Metroid video games that only utilized partial voice acting talents. This game aims to use in a galaxy setting the skills and mental stamina to help stop a weapon used as biologic warfare. As a first-person action/adventure type of video game, Metroid Prime 3: Corruption tries to utilize 3D effects not found in the other games in the series. However, this game can be played only in single-player game play mode.

Metroid Prime 3 Corruption is the story of Dark Samus launching the Leviathan, a satellite or bomb that scatters seeds to spread the poisonous element Phazon throughout the galaxy. The Galactic Federation fights this threat by calling in four bounty hunters to clean the scattered seeds, Rundas, Ghor, Gandrayda and Samus Aran. Moreover before anything can be achieved and cleaned, a nearby planet is attacked and the new mission is to save it. While rescue is being done, Dark Samus attacks each of the hunters with a Phazon blast. When they recover, they find out that they are now capable of handling Phazon. This enables Samus to enter Hypermode, and do lots of damage. The interesting part is to command Samus’ ship. The Command Visor allows Samus to send the ship commands; where to land, what to launch a missile at, or what to carry. Corruption makes your shooting skills get better and better. To be able to aim good shots you need steady nerves and quick reflexes. Corruption’s major accomplishment is the graphics or the artwork. Corruption stands out with its colorful and elaborate designs. Corruption contains some of the best visuals in gaming; giving attention to detail, and its wonderfully consistent and imaginative art direction.

    When it comes down to it, Metroid Prime 3: Corruption is obviously a must-own. With a stupendous FPS system, great graphics and score, plus a good amount of extras to keep you going, this is definitely the best Wii game next to Twilight Princess . Get your arm cannon ready, you're going to need it. Read more

    Metroid Prime 3: Corruption is a fine first-person adventure, and it is definitely one of the better Wii titles aimed at mature gamers. However, there is no denying that Corruption lacks the substance that made its prequels so awesome. Despite the near-perfect motion controls, the experience just isn't as exciting anymore. Perhaps this is due to Metroid Prime burnout - after all, Retro Studios have basically repeated the exact same formula twice over now. Nevertheless,... Read more

    I have always been fascinated with Metroid, in fact the first game I bought on my own for the NES was Metroid. Corruption if finally what it should be in first person form. I loved the visuals and the story kept me on my toes waiting to see what was around the next corner. I wish Nintendo would have come up with a multi player version similar to the DS Hunters, but the game was enough fun I still consider it one of the Wii's best! Read more

    August 22, 2007 - the metroid series that started on the nintendo gamecube: metroid prime and metroid prime2:echoes are still one of the best games made for the nintendo gamecube. they took over 9/10.the visuals of the game is beautiful very detailed and a very big world for a an action/adventure game. the 3d map was the best solution for the beginners of this game and the best solution for the direction of the core gamers (get it?!?!?). every environment in our world is...
