Being bored and having time, here's Part 1 of my look into the Metroid Series.
---------------------------------------------
The Metroid series in general is a brilliantly crafted set of games, to say the least. It was certainly unique when Metroid was originally released for the NES. Basically, it was a free-roaming experience with tons of items to collect, secret passageways, and awesome fights.
