i thought the gameplay itself however, was pretty good, i enjoyed the movement and the shooting, etc. i couldn't get past the unmemorable warbly techno music (aside from the intro), the open environments, its need to explain the crap out of everything, and that lame rock boss thing. i just sighed and turned the gamecube off.įortune_p_dawg: i wanted to love prime so bad. i did give it a fair shake though, i didn't quit till the rock boss in the snow area. to me it was like the 50-cent of the metroid games for the 50-cent era.ĭead space got much closer to the vibe i wanted in metoid prime. maybe it's because i was 11 when i played super metroid and 19 when i played prime? prime was just a different beast i guess. when i think metroid i think dark isolation in slimy, barely-charted alien caverns & ruins, crawling with membranous, mucousy wildlife. i also recall going down the vertical chasm of the brisntar red soil area, an organic looking vein of crimson pulse in the background with no explaination besides what one's imagination can conjur, the end of this cavern feeding you directly into the maw of a giant Kraid. When i think of metroid i recall stumbling upon draygon's layer amidst the ichor glazed walls of zebes' dark, wet meridian abyss.
