August 26, 2007 - Corruption takes advantage of the Wii's biggest strength with its unique controls, and minimizes its greatest weakness through astounding art direction, while otherwise maintaining or improving upon the high standards and overall polish the series is known for.
October 16, 2007 - Corruption is a game which places adventure as a joint priority among the action, and one that will live long in your memory once you're done with it.
August 27, 2007 - We certainly aren't tired of the Metriod Prime series, and this revolutionary first-person adventure with tight controls will easily be one of 2007's best games.
August 27, 2007 - What you're left with then is a rock-solid end to the Metroid Prime series, and one that deserves to be played by fans and Wii owners alike.
August 29, 2007 - This is the third Prime game in five years, each strikingly similar to the last, so it's hard to gush uncontrollably about a game we've basically played twice before.
August 27, 2007 - The original Metroid Prime is one of the highest-rated games in existence, but Metroid Prime 3: Corruption is easily superior. It's far less frustrating, and more action packed, while managing to redefine console shooting controls in the process.
October 24, 2007 - Corruption may not be much of an evolution of the series, and it's not without its flaws, but remains one of, if not, the biggest reason to own a Wii.
October 3, 2007 - At the end of the day Metroid Prime 3: Corruption is a fine installment to the series but it is still relying on a formula that has been in place since 2002.
September 12, 2007 - With the Wii still flying off store shelves, many people are going to be looking for games with some meat to them, and Corruption fits that bill.
