Redestium Posted September 17, 2003 Share Posted September 17, 2003 I've been replaying it on hard mode recently striving for that elusive 100% (which I now know I can't get since I missed scanning something in the beginning of the game :angry:), and I just had to reiterate how damn cool this game is. The lock ups however were a turn off (only happened once but was very irritating), as were the slow-to-open-doors?. However, once you see past that the game is something truly brilliant and I'd really like to hear everyone's thoughts on what the next one could be about. Personally I'd love to see something after Fusion or something before the original Metroid (Metroid: Genesis perhap:unsure:e:) showing Samus getting her suit and being trained by the Chozo or something to that effect.

AndyD Posted September 17, 2003 Share Posted September 17, 2003 I loved the game but I don't imagine myself ever wanting to go through the game again just to get 100%. Are there any reasons why I should? To be honest, I haven't even finished the game. Zelda came into the picture while I was still finishing up Metriod :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

..... Posted September 18, 2003 Share Posted September 18, 2003 He's right, you don't need the scans (you only need to scan red ones, or creatures for 100% though) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boffa Jones Veteran Posted September 18, 2003 Veteran Share Posted September 18, 2003 Wow is that actually true? I thought the scans were the main factor in your percentage. But aside from that Metroid is one of the best games i have ever played. I mean its just awesome. Especially if you have surround. The first time that I saw the chozo ghosts I had shivers up my spine. And the sound they make especially when they are behind you!!! Or when you are running from them and you hear a fading one as you enter the next room. That game could really pull you in. For the next one i hope that they add a bit of contact with others, but that could very well kill the mood. Other than that it would be cool if there were more of a 'detective' element chasing down a bad guy in multiple planets. EDIT: and of course how coudl i forget ill bet anythign the big 'dinosaur' boss will probably be in it. Kraid i think his name was. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dountoyounow Posted September 18, 2003 Share Posted September 18, 2003 I rented it once but didnt get to play it until a couple hours before it was due back because of a report that came up. I didnt get far but the graphics and gameplay blew me away. I want to try again but i think i will need lots of help ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boffa Jones Veteran Posted September 18, 2003 Veteran Share Posted September 18, 2003 Actually the game isn't overly hard. It isnt a bad thing at all as it isnt easy. But they didnt make it impossible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
..... Posted September 18, 2003 Share Posted September 18, 2003 The percentage is upgrades you've collected, although when you hit 98% there's only one to go, it's a glitch in the game. ***spoilers I suppose*** Kraid isn't in the game ***end "spoilers"*** Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Redestium Posted September 18, 2003 Author Share Posted September 18, 2003 Yeah, I missed the Hive Mecha in the beginning, so I probably won't hit 100 percent this go through. Oh well, just will replay it again in a few months after I finish it on hard mode. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boffa Jones Veteran Posted September 18, 2003 Veteran Share Posted September 18, 2003 Nonono i meant for the next game... i beat it in feb (metroid prime) Unless you are talking about the new one? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
..... Posted September 18, 2003 Share Posted September 18, 2003 Oops, I got mixed up :p Misread your post. I think the next one will be between Prime and Metroid 2 from the looks of things in the trailer, no idea about Kraid, it'd be nice tho. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gary_Player Posted September 18, 2003 Share Posted September 18, 2003 I havent played the any of the new metriods (except on a friends GBA once) but I loved all the old ones...I Have the ones for NES, SNES, and gameboy and I've beaten all of them a few hundred times.

G-Mna16 Posted September 19, 2003 Share Posted September 19, 2003 Hey ppl My frends got Metroid Prime and i was gonna get it but Zelda came out :laugh: and i think that thats alot better than Metroid Prime :happy: . I think that the zelda games hav better story lines than Metroid instead of just blowin stuff up u hav to solve puzzels, there some simalarites like bein able to get different customes and a selection of weapons. :) But I like the old style of fantasy more :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SpeaR Posted September 20, 2003 Share Posted September 20, 2003 I dont have a GC but i've been playing Metroid Fusion on the GBA since a week now, I dont play it continuously but I play it 3 - 4 hrs a day. I guess its the best game made ever :) Metroid owns, I'm gonna buy a GC just for this game :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boffa Jones Veteran Posted September 20, 2003 Veteran Share Posted September 20, 2003 It is worth it Metroid Prime is awesome and you get the original metroid if you have Fusion beat so its like getting a free nintendo game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Boffa Jones Veteran Posted September 21, 2003 Veteran Share Posted September 21, 2003 I rather liked metroid fusion. Like it wasn't better than every other game i have played or anything, but it was good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
