Stacked Metroid: Other M trailer is loaded with new content

See Samus beat the crap out of aliens, plus how the control scheme works

Ourfirst glimpseexplained the setup with words and images, but we feel this surprisingly packed video helps flesh out the details even better.

In it you see:

- How the first-person missile aiming works

- How the running and FPS modes blend together

- More snippets of Samus engaging in face-busting finishing moves

-Part of a badass cinematic featuring Mother Brain and Samus from the end of Super Metroid. We saw the full thing a month ago, but this bit is the best part, and likely serves to link the two games together.

Other M launches June 27, and you can bet we'll be reviewing the hell out of it. Seriously, reviewing it so hard there's no point for anyone else to bother.
