Agreed. I was expecting a new main Metroid game (Prime or "original", it didn't matter for me as long as the mistery behind Sylux or the aftermath of Fusion were answered), but we got Federation Force after six years of, literally, nothing.

FF isn't as good as it's predecesors, as a Metroid game is really bad... However I must confess that I enjoyed it to the end. At least FF provide us with lore for the series (we thought that Samus-Baby was the first parental bond in the series between a Metroid and a subject of another species, but in Mission 17 we find out that this isn't true), and yes, the Samus battle was the best thing in the game (the Marines were lucky in fighing Samus when transformed into Morph-Ball. If they were meant  to fight her in her "normal form", the battle would have been lost from the very beggining xD )
