This is certainly a beautiful retrospective book that takes me all the way back to the original game for the GameCube in 2002 and does indeed have high-quality stitched binding and a nice canvas cloth-style hardcover, a very solidly built book. The illustrations are nice and clean and the colors are lovely, and the pages are on a nice art paper that is a bit more matte, so there isn't a lot of annoying glare when you're trying to read the pages under a bright light. The concept art covered in the book is expansive and thorough, covering all three games in the original trilogy, as well as "Metroid Prime Remastered". It doesn't feel skimpy and low-effort. Overall, everything a Metroid fan might be waiting for, and a wonderful prelude to Metroid Prime 4 (as of the time of this writing, due to come out December 4th here in the US). If there were any critiques, it would be that the gray used on some of the names of creatures/characters is a bit hard to see because they blend too well with the backgrounds. It would've helped, design-wise, if they'd used a black or white outline on the letters for that reason. One more thing of note I'd like to add is that Piggyback went the extra mile with protecting the book for shipping by putting it inside a stiff mailer; it's always nice to see companies give a bit of a fig so that customers are happy with what they receive. Nicely done, Piggyback! ... show more

    • Perfect for the Metroid Prime Fan
Format: Hardcover
Very high quality art book showcasing a lot of the art in all three games from Retro. As I turned through the pages, it made me remember of the adventures I had with the games when I played them long ago. Makes one appreciate the games even more. Truly gives Metroid fans great quality art with some added commentary into the insight of some of the characters, landscape and design process. A great collector's item for the series. Prepares you for the art that will eventually come out of Metroid Prime 4's game when it is released. ... show more

This is one finely crafted book...everything from the foil-embossed cover to the high-quality imagery throughout, this book screams class! It's absolutely a must-own for Metroid fans of all ages. This really isn't just an art book, it's more like a show piece. Just so excited to have it in my collection! No complaints at all. Very highly recommended! ... show more
