Anyway, most console FPS's are shit, whether they're ports or not. I can say this because I've played a very large portion of them.

Goldeneye was ok, but it's more like piss on top of a year old shit pile.

Gears of War is probably the best, and I had problems with that too.

I suppose I'm a traditionalist and a prick for preferring mouse and keyboard over controllers and even 'point and shooters', but I never saw Prime as a viable sequel to the original Metroids and as a standalone series it's terrible. They should have gone platforming third person shooter as far as I'm concerned.
Yeah, that was one of the major issues that people were having when the first game was announced and people saw it for the first time.

It still has that Metroid feel for me, though, and I think Retro did a good job with it.

Though I think the sequel, Echoes, was somewhat convluted, though still good. The limited weapon system that had, along with some side plots that went nowhere for a while didn't help it (though the two world system was pretty cool).
