Metroid Prime Hunters - New Details
Brand new details on the most anticipated first-person shooter for the Nintendo DS yet: Metroid Prime Hunters.
Our German colleagues from Gaming-Universe claim to have received new details on the upcoming first-person shooter Metroid Prime Hunters. According to the Germans, the game will allow up to 4 players during multiplaying sessions. While not using the Nintendo WiFi Connection option, the empty slots of these four players can be filled with CPU bots. Best of all, the game is said to feature single-card multiplay through the download option. Unfortunately, the single-card multiplaying option only allows the Samus-model playable.
But there's more. According to Gaming-Universe's source, Metroid Prime Hunters will feature seven different multiplayer-modes:Battle - the classic Deathmatch known from various first-person shooters. Everyone's your enemy in this mode.Survival - Just like the Battle-mode, but this time you'll get a limited amount of lives. Get killed to often and it's game over for you and off to the spectating mode.Bounty - Bring the Octolith-artifact to your base and score points. Of course you're also allowed to blast everything that's moving on your way finding the Octolith.Defender - Like King of the Hill from other first-person shooters, you're assigned part of the map and it'll be your task to defend that part.Prime Hunter - Play hide-and-seek, as one player is assigned to be the Prime Hunter. Kill the Prime Hunter to become the Prime Hunter yourself. He who manages to stay the Prime Hunter for the longest time wins.Capture - Capture the Flag on the Nintendo DS. Team up with another players, try to steal your opponents' Octolith and bring it to their base.Nodes - Several nodes are scattered throughout the map. Get close to one to get it activated on your account and score points. He who claims the most nodes wins.

This game is going to be sweet.
I'm excited! That's really good news. It sounds like there's gonna be a crazy amount of stuff in this game.
wow! that looks realy good.
I can't wait for this game to be released. I'm so impatient that I will buy the US version on March 20, and maybe the european version on May 5 in order to play offline qith my friends (05/05 = date of my birthday! this must be a sign!?). I play FPS on PC with a mouse for years, and I found handiness of MP:H with the stylus is perfect.
Yay, capture the flag! :D I'm happy.
Only 4 players? I hoped a maximum of eight...
sweet! sounds great! CTF = multiplayer madness, but with only four...
Sounds awsome! This is going to be huge! Although somtimes I think people forget that the DS can only handle so much as a handheld.
but will u only be able to use 4 players at once online to?! that kinda sucks! I mean come on theres 6 or 7 characters so i wanna at least play with 6... And I LOVE the big N... but this would have been the perfect time to reval and release the DS headset that was shown at E3 last year...that would make the game even better.
HOLY SH*T! AWESOME!
O..M..G 'nuff said :D
CTF, good stuff :) Exactly what i wanted.
And how many of these modes will be available online? Mario Kart's online was disappointing. And hopefully you'll actually be able to talk to the people you're playing against.
Maybe for the DS. But I highly doubt MP Hunters will beat out Zelda TP, or The Mario Rev Launch game for overall goty. But like I said, it being the DS' goty is a strong possibility.
This game should easily be the 2006 game of the year. And yes this new infos going to raise my great expectation of the game even higher.
wow, thats impressive. The only sad part is that the game is limited to 4 people even during offline.
Also noticed a few (new?) pieces character on the official minisite (http://www.metroidhunters.com)
Yesss! That's great news! Single-card download play!!!!!!!!!!
