In addition to the standard enemies, we found a few Venus flytrap-style foes that required us to shift to morph ball form and lay some mines to escape.

rotfl. you wonder if he was just tired or something when writing that or if he really has never played a metroid game before.
One shall stand, one shall ball.
That's a lot of words to say absolutely nothing.
One shall stand, one shall ball.
This is a better write up in the sense that it says more than "You're on a space ship, there are enemies on the space ship and you kill them."

On the positive side, I'm back to not really caring so much about this game and also considering applying for a job at Gamespot since apparently all you need to do is play a preview version of a game and say it's going to be great along with a vague description of what is in the game. As a proficient bullshitter I believe I could pull this off quite well.
And there's always IGN if GS doesn't hire you.
These things always piss me off. They're only ever "looking pretty hopeful, looking forward to release" or "needs work, but should be fine for release"

If they say that it's a bad game before the release, then the developers and publishers won't let them get their hands on it.
Not impossible
just highly unlikely

And that's what's wrong with the videogame press in a nutshell.
Exactly. Do you ever see them preview crap games? Or even original IPs from an up-and-coming dev studio? It's always pre-hyped sequels from the big devs, so all they ever have to say is "looks good" or "needs work, will look good".
The worst is when a game DOES come out, and all the reviews give it like a 3.5 despite the hyped up previews stating it would be otherwise.

Actually the worst is when a game comes out and it's awful, but gets high scores because it's 'supposed' to.
