Sometimes I just wish the piano pieces on these teaser sites would spontaneously break out into hard rock or techno.

Something in the vein of Metroid Metal's 'Downed frigate'? Would be freakin' sweet.

And what's in a name? I thought Super Metroid and Metroid Prime are pretty lame names for a game. Still, 'Metroid Prime' is a lot better than 'Metroid: Other M'.

Other M just seems... incomplete or something. Like, other M what?

And if M is meant to stand for Metroid, it makes the title Metroid: Other Metroid. Which is.... well...

Yes, exactly! It sounds wrong in the same way "Fruits Basket" sounds wrong, if you're picking up what I'm putting down here.

Oh and I do not believe that is Jennifer Hale. I wish it was, her voice is the sex.

as seen on GameFAQs

I'unno, I think that "METROID Other M" looks kinda classy, but this is from a guy that like the simplicity of "FINAL FANTASY" logos, where it's just a type face and then a symbolic piece of art to coincide, and just the typeface when a title. Y;know, aside from the CGI collages that muck up the designs. Of the PS1 FFs, I'd say FFVIII might've been the least "photo shot"/"photoshop" of them all, with a symmetrical Edea above to logo, the Rinoa below the logo flanked by Squall and Seifer looking out in either direction.

To tie this back to Other M, the "Other" is of a smaller size than the "M", and with it off to the side, the whole spiel balances pretty well. ...or something like that, maybe. I think I just BS'd some of that last stuff/rationalizations.

The voice, though, yeah, sounds worse than Xenosaga EPISODE II's KOS-MOS.

...what is it with Japan and ALL-CAPS (not to mention scREwy capS)?

Fruits Basket managed to be awesome despite its name, Other M can do the same.

Inorite!
But enough of that. Yep, they just had to throw in the old "enigmatic quote and obscure scene accompanied by a piano jam" teaser. But hey, that just means less spoilers and more surprises, right?

New teaser went up on the site. Still waiting for it to buffer (shitternet) but I thought I'd let you know.

When something "grows on you" it's usually implying in a good way.

And yeah, I'm starting to feel the same.
