    I think this game would have been better on Wii U, because I don’t think people pick up a handheld console for eSports, but as a free-to-play game, this is one of the better that the console enjoys.

    Metroid Prime: Blast Ball is not only a marketing operation, It's a funny Rocket League-like with a solid gameplay and a good multiplayer.

    We'd recommend you pick up Blast Ball in its free incarnation (which is permanent in Europe but not North America) as it's an entertaining mini-game that offers up some mindless fun, but it's not necessarily the best advert for Federation Force.

    The graphics are solid, great quality, audio is also up to mark.
    Its a simple game with a simple objective score a goal.
    The only negative i must say this game suffers from is how they decide a tie, as sometimes the tie breaker section of the game still doesn't help a team achieve a victory.
    Putting that aside the game is Free and offers loads of Fun. I highly recommend checking it out.    … Expand
