OK. We all know how Metroid Prime rocks all of our socks, but before we all go and listen to korn and do some fancy drop D playing, why don't we all tell eachother how far we've got in the game, and help eachother out when we're in trouble.

Personally, after only 2 hours of play, I've reached phenandra, with three energy tanks, and 20 missiles.

Well, I couldn't scan that invisible Bombu thingy, so you're probably right. I've snacced 92% of things, so hopefully all shall be scanned :-)

Ah, but you see, the name tells you everything. All the places that weren't reachable before, now are, and if you didn't know about this extra suit, you'd be wondering how to get to these places for ages.

One place that I was wondering how to get for ages was spoiled by you telling everyone. You don't seem to realise, you may find it cool to have a part of the game spoiled for you, but for some people, it won't be so cool.

You didn't even put a spoiler warning, plus you wrote it in capitals, so you'd have to be blind to see. Why can't you just admit that you were wrong to do it?

Yes, but still, why does it spoil the game, I looked upoin it as cool when I heard it, like I said many times before, how do you know what it does? It makes no difference, as WS already said there was another suit, you knew it was coming, so the name tells you nothing.

By the way, just got it there. Yay.

Good.

I don't think you can scan it, it is invisible after all.


I want to complete it with 100% scans this time.

I tried scanning it. Got shot at.

I dodged and tried scanning it again, and after getting shot again, I thought it would be best to whip out my power beam , which despite having all of the other beam weapons, is still the best.

Oh yes.

Well.. 3hours of play.. Erm.. 15missiles.. 2 tanks.. and I'm just entering that firey place after you kill that silly plant thing that comes back to life, lol..

But I kicked it. Hard.

Really enjoying this game, quite stunned at the visuals. I still think the Menu/Backround thing 0wnz everything. Its soo cool.

Morphing is super sweet. The graphics are stunning, the gameplay is gripping, this game is amazing.
