Metroid Prime (again)


Inferna Firesword

471 views

I seem to prefer playing a game than actually beating it, since I've opened a new file for my Metroid Prime Trilogy. At this point, I'm never going to beat the game. Oh well. :P

 

A few quick things:

  • Thardus: Awesome music, but a pain in the butt to destroy
  • Trying to navigate the pitch-black confines of the Space Pirate base is not made any easier by having your little brother nag you
  • War Wasps, Shriekbats, and Sheegoths/Baby Sheegoths are the most annoying enemies on Tallon IV, save for the Chozo Ghosts when you don't have the X-Ray visor

Thardus' music is cool and interesting, but not 'awesome.'

 

Flaaghra's is though.

 

But the best in the game is the first Tallon Overworld theme.

 

The first time I played, the landing on Tallon IV, with that music, invoke such a feeling of mystery and wonder I haven't experienced since.

 

And the best battle music in the game is definitely Hive Mecha.

Hm, I never found Thardus to be that hard, personally. Now, Omega Pirate, on the other hand... *shudders* I kept dying on that boss until I discovered a special way to knock off his armor. Well, okay, I watched a video of someone doing it, but hey, using power bombs to own him was still quite an effective remedy.

Oh, and I'd argue that the Prime series as a whole has some of the best video game music ever. Corruption especially is wonderful, since they amped up the omnious latin chants by a thousand. :P

I'm actually not a big fan of Thardus' music, but whatever.

 

Also, METROIDS did not make that place any easier. I freed them all just so I could kill every last one and not have to be creeped out by them. That screech they make scares the **** out of me.

 

War Wasps are actually not bad in Prime 1. I agree with all of the other choices you made for the position of worst enemy though.

 

But in Prime 2 THEY ARE MY LEAST FAVORITE ENEMIES IN THE FREAKIN' GAME ASDHFKSDJHF. But Grenchlers suck too.

The G.F.S. Valhalla in Corruption is creepier than Glacier One/Research Lab Aether. And so is East Skytown Xenoresearch.

 

Also adult Sheegoths take like 10 seconds to kill with the plasma beam, shriekbats are easy to wipe out before they actually do anything, and war wasps are simple once the hive is gone.

 

I'd say the most annoying is the Ice Pirate (on Hypermode difficulty anyway). Nevermind. It's DEFINITELY Fission Metroids.

 

Grenchlers are those water lizard things? Worst enemy of Echoes.

 

Worst enemy in Corruption is probably... I dunno...
