Says what it says on the tin.
I really have no idea which one I'd take.

I thought Prime 3's grapple-rip motion control was kind of cool and satisfying to use. The stupid "twist your controller to push a button" stuff was annoying but didn't detract enough from the actual game to ruin the experience for me.
The cut scenes, however, and the amount of "help" that you receive really killed the pace of the game. Which was unfortunate because it really had some of the best environments and power-ups in the Prime trilogy.
The amount of difficulty they had to remove from the game just to make it not frustrating is noticeable to a point of laughable. The series was designed around its lockon-strafe combat, and then they put in minimal effort to adapt that to far easier controls (a problem that plagues other famous Wii Ports like RE4 and Pikmin). Almost the entire time I was playing Prime 3 it felt like they were yelling "see, it totally works and is super cool ain't it?!" Like it was going to prove a point and the game came second.
Which, I'd be fine with if it was its own game. But it was not only the mainline game in series, but the finale to a major trilogy which was now saddled with this new gimmick.
