Do they ever explain what the name means?
I'm guessing it elaborates on the genetic fiddling with Metroids that happens in Fusion.

Right because space marines will save samus. The only moment i felt helped (or that they could help) was at beginning and at the end, and they didn't do shyte.
I also said that they don't in the very same sentence that I mentioned them, dude.
The simple fact that they're there is just so...jarring.

I haven't checked about this game because I am too lazy, yes, yes.
But I've just read about Adam. So he is supposed to be in this game or something?

It's just a very little theory, but I remember Adam's last name was Malcovich (or something similar). Maybe, yes just maybe, the M is for Malcovich. Sure, it would be lame, but... err... yes.

I suppose I should read about this game, I actually like Metroid. But I didn't like the Metroid Prime series as much as the previous titles (except Hunters, but that's because of the multiplayer thing). Seems this one is more like third person, though.

I should really read about it, yes.

Hunters is the Wands of Gamelon of the Metroid series.

Well I did enjoy the Multiplayer part. Of course, there were glitchers, quitters and alt-spammers, but normal games were fun. And you still can play against Bots. However, the main story wasn't all that great, yes.

I agree that the Varia feature restriction was weird. But, one off thing to disapprove of it all, would be a little bias. Even then though,  Samus arrived with the feature off, if she might've come with the feature on, there's a good change she wouldn't have had that restriction thing. In other words, I believe she was restricted on features that weren't active, as well as more elaborate weapons and explosives. Which to tell you the truth I find it weirder that when she found the diffusion beam there was no discussion about it, and she used it after she found it with no problem.

And it's not just because they tell her not to use anything and she takes it seriously. When she got to the bottle ship, the GF was already there, and she no longer had jurisdiction to be there. Adam, whose basically military, offers her that she can stay under the condition that she follows every command. She stays because she feels that they might be in danger to Adam and his team if she doesn't, which turns out to be the case. Lots of people don't seem to like the authorization thing, which I believe that aside of being a a way to show how Samus acquires her abilities through the game, it's also a nod to how she respects military, and more over, how she tries to restore Adam's trust by following his commands.

And other m for the most part I believe it stands for [spoiler] other mother [/spoiler] or other metroid, but no, they don't explain the name.

As for hunters, the MP was glitchy and the story of it was whack.

Well, the authorization thing kinda ruins the badass "take orders from nobody" mercenary chick image she had until now. It's like Adam is one step away from ordering her to make him a sandwich.

Actually if you read the manga...

And what are you talking about, she's a commissioned bounty hunter, she takes orders on specific assignments for cash. We just never saw that aspect until Fusion, the Primes..

In Metroid, S. Metroid , Prime 1, and in this game,  she's acting on her own on distress signals, which calls upon her galactic savior title rather than her merc/bounty hunter title. The other games have stated that she either was sent  on pay or went on pay. (i.e. orders)

Warning, there's one of those famous game breaking glitches (meaning, you have to start a new save). At the moment it's unexplained why it's happening. I didn't get it, but there's a random number of people getting it.

Without spoilers: you start the game, and you play for a while, and then there's a chance you might get that glitch.
