I am on sector 4 right now in fusion, spent quite a while playing this morning as well as some harmony of dissonance which I need to catch up on. i really like fusion a lot, a lot less frustrating but I think more fun because of it. dont get me wrong super metroid is awesome but sometimes I just got stuck for TOO long.

There's more, of course you'll have to backtrack and re-visit all the different sectors with new gear, find new areas in them, etc.

That's my favorite part about Metroid.. I love backtracking. There's no better feeling than when you realize you can suddenly get in that door. Fuck, Fusion is just as good as Prime. I'm having the time of my life.. I've been sleeping on the couch and haven't changed my t-shirt or undies in 3 days.

It's a done deal, signed sealed and delivered as of two hours ago. I beat the game at about 80%, so I'm going to shoot for 100 before I really proclaim victory. Best game I've ever played.

I played this game for 9 hours straight on Sunday... my save is 17 hours in all, with more to come as I get every item.
I think I'll need an FAQ for this. :-/

I've finished prime with %95, and it's so very good. The bossess (especially the last one) seemed to be alot more challenging than windwaker (and that's on easy!)
I have high expectations for the sequel, ..bring it on!!!

I haven't had a chance to unlock the original NES title but I have used the Suit from Fusion in Prime.
(It's pretty slim looking with no huge sholderpads) As for missing out on stuff I'm pretty sure that it would make no difference apart from what you look like in the 3rd person shots.

Prime is pretty cool, but it pales in comparison to the one and only Super Metroid ('troid III) for SNES. Now that game is a masterpiece, in ever sense of the word. I have beaten that game 4 times... 3 on the actual console and once on the rom, and most games I don't ever play again after beating once.

I guess fusion must be pretty tight too, but i dont like extended play on handheld games.. never cared for the ergonomics (or lack thereof) involved. I want Gamecube, with the GBA adapter for it, so i could play it on my bigscreen... now that would be awesome.

I recently did the second connection bonus and now play the original NES version! woohoo,
it feels alot harder than the others without a map, also it's quite a shame that they couldn't tweak the engine a little so there would be no slowdown...

a crazy and sad fact for the metroid prime fans:
Autechre was commissioned to do a full soundtrack for it, did it, finished it, it was accepted by Nintendo and then at the last minute someone higher up the chain of command heard it and said no, Xed it and replaced it with regular cheeze nintendo music. Sad huh? That might have made me buy Game Cube. Not much chance of that now since I just got a PS2.

great game, yeah. definitely one of the best i ever played... the music, the gameplay, the environment, going back in previous "levels" to complet it (so simple but great idea), everything...
(i understand you guys being totally fanatic about it ^^)
i'm a bit taking my time, i'm in the Phazon Mine now... it's starting to get hard (i was so hoping for a save point when i got to level 2 of Phazon Mine, but i got killed before i found any)... =)
something i like too is that you can guess that Samus is a woman in this version, you can actually see her eyes, hear her voice when hit etc. - and even the shape of the armor suit isn't gorilla-like...
i tried Super Metroid on snes too on emulator but i don't like it that much really. besides i'm ashamed, i'm stuck at the very beginning... *' _ '*

yes, metroid prime is one of the best games on gamecube. i was really skeptical about it when i first heard the news that, one, it was going to be an FPS, and two, it was being developed by an Austin development house who had only made one game before - then i played the demo and was blown away. the way they translated this action/platformer to FPS was seamless. most of the boss battles are great too! that, and being able to scan things adds a whole new level to the game - there's a story there too, you just have to find it.
i've heard metroid prime 2 is already in the pipeline.
one thing that pissed me off while playing prime was i was going for all the log book scans, and i missed all but ONE - the Ice Shriekbat, which only appears up until you beat the Sheegoth, then you never see it again. I was SO pissed!

Well, Metroid Prime 2 is officially called Metroid Prime 2: Echoes... I'm hoping for just Metroid: Echoes. It sounds tacky the other way.
Looks good. Not much better than Prime... I think that pushed the Gamecube to the limits, basically, gorgeous game. Prime 2 has something called The Ing, which there's controversy over. It may be a new alien race, like the Space Pirates, or it may be a group of armored soldiers with their own agenda. There's a screenshot of a silver played guy that looks KIND of like Samus, shooting out of a spaceship.
Screenshot- my only gripe here are the colored icons on the bottom of the screen... UGLY. I think they'll change it back to the smooth Prime interface, though.

Silver PLATED, I meant to say. And here he is. Looks like me might be one of those guys from the intro in Metroid Fusion that were accompanying Samus. I'm a fucking geek.

I'm gonna force myself to play Metroid Prime sometime. I mean I bought the game with really high expectations... took it home, put it in the gamecube immediately and started playing... but I couldn't get into it at all :-/
I really feel like I'm missing out, everyone keeps saying it's one of the best gamecube-games ever.... and I played it for 2 hours, got bored and haven't touched it eversince.
On the other hand I adore Metroid Fusion & Zero Mission. Already they have entered my list of best Nintendo-games ever. Both absolutely brilliant. Plus I recently replayed Super Metroid... and that one was awesome too. So I feel like I'm ready for Prime now. Still being in a metroid-state of mind a little bit. Yeah. I'm just gonna start from the beginning again and force myself to like it this time :-p
