Sure. But Retro's first game was even better than anything Rare produced.
Metroid is a cool game, and it's well made, but there is NO conceivable way--NONE--that is anywhere as good as Perfect Dark, or even GoldenEye. Those were awesome, replayable games with ground-breaking multiplayers, contemporary great graphics, and just a solid, fun playability...Metroid in my eyes cannot compete, nor can Retro. Rare was synonymous with Nintendo, with excellence...Retro will need to pull off some pretty nice crap to earn that stance.
