Put simply, this isn't a review- it's a misplaced (or mislabeled) blog post.

Why did you change it? I figured everyone would have understood what you were saying from the first message--provided they clicked the link.

As it was, anyone who didn't bother to click on it would think I was just being rude.

I found that article on NGJ really quite interesting, and why I don't read a lot of reviews these days.

It's definitely not "a critical evaluation of [Metroid's] rule system in comparison with the rule systems of similar games;" if that's how you define a review, this is not a review.

I read this review because Metroid, like Mega Man, passed me by at the time and I wonder what made it so legendary, how it stands up today, and whether it's worth me going back to acquaint myself with it.

I agree that this is not a review, though I think it fulfills the purpose of a review.

Review or not, I still enjoyed this piece.
