With the final installment of the much anticipated Metroid Prime series heading to stores shortly, reports from those who have already taken Samus up into space reveal the use of tokens that award progress during the blonde bombshell's arduous adventure.

Players are awarded red tokens for scanning percentages of enemies and items, whilst blue tokens are received if players embark on the optional side missions. Golden tokens are awarded for defeating bosses. These tokens can be used to unlock bonus content, and supposedly are linked to a "friends voucher" system, that can be sent to other

You know, someone once said 'MP is Nintendo's Halo'. I think he comes close to it, because there are achievements and a hype building around it. Since I think even Microsofts only brand nowhere comes near the immerse gameplay even in Metroid Prime 1 (my own opinion, based on me never played Halo 1-3), it start pulling in the direction of some games on X360. Achievements, sidequests, polished graphics, more scripted scenes... Everything looks like it can deliver a core-gamer-hype like on X360. I hope it will! And I hope it pays off and sells like warm sliced bread (a saying in Germany).

I find your lack of faith disturbing!
