Metroid Prime 2!

Post by DarkFlameWolf »

This is one awesome game, its also significantly harder than the previous Prime game. It simply assumes you're already a MP1 vet and takes the difficulty of the Phazon Mines and then rolls with it through the rest of the game. The environments are much larger and more expansive, as well as more detailed. As for where I'm at, I'm in Tarvus Bog, being assaulted in the dark version of it by Ing Commandos. Damn those guys are friggin annoying, I shudder at the thought of doing hard mode on this game.....

GC sucks :P but the metroid prime series is awesome. I only have #1 right now, but I've beaten it about a million times :P
I plan on getting the game eventually, maybe after my new computer parts.

I've never really thought much of the Metroid Prime, but it sounds to me like it's a fun game. I'll have to rent it out sometime.

BTW, do any of you have a GameFly account? Is it any good? For those who don't know it's a service where you can rent games off the internet. No late fees, and up to 2 games out at a time.

just heard about an instance death trick for those ing commandos if there is a temp. safe zone nearby. They will only spawn in the safe zone if its inactive. So once they spawn then, shoot a charged light beam energy shot at the zone to activate it, spelling instant death for the ing commando. I haven't tried it yet, but it sounds plausible enough to work.

w00t beat the bog boss :) The next area is pretty cool, very colorful. There's also a robot which can give you a virus, and that's a neat effect.

the boss for that Sanctuary area is quite cool. Wait until you get to it. The final bosses are a pain in the arse though. They outclass Metroid Prime in the first game by far.
