Now that I have your attention with a completely irrelevant quote from "The Critic", perhaps you can answer my question about Metroid Prime:

In order to complete the game 100%, must you have all research data, pirate data, chozo lore, and creatures data? Or must you simply have found all the items (missiles, power bombs, energy tanks, etc).

kthx :love: =~_^=

I think all the scanning is considered seperately. For 100% you just need to collect all the power-ups.


Oh... god! Chocolate cockroaches don't crawl! - Great Rumbler - 27th January 2003

I'm pretty sure that DMiller is right.


Oh... god! Chocolate cockroaches don't crawl! - OB1 - 27th January 2003

He's correct. You just need all of the power-ups, missile tanks, and energy tanks.


Oh... god! Chocolate cockroaches don't crawl! - Sacred Jellybean - 27th January 2003

Woo hoo! Okay, thanks guys. :love:


Oh... god! Chocolate cockroaches don't crawl! - Great Rumbler - 27th January 2003

I was going to play MP today, but then I discovered that my brother had the memory card with my saved game on it with him. So no MP for few days...:(


Oh... god! Chocolate cockroaches don't crawl! - OB1 - 27th January 2003

You've already beaten it though, right? Right?


Oh... god! Chocolate cockroaches don't crawl! - Great Rumbler - 27th January 2003

Um...well...you see..yeah I beat it...uh a long time ago yeah...ahem *cough* *clears throat*


Oh... god! Chocolate cockroaches don't crawl! - OB1 - 27th January 2003

Confused You didn't beat it??


Oh... god! Chocolate cockroaches don't crawl! - Great Rumbler - 27th January 2003

*to himself* Hmm...looks like subterfuge isn't going to work here. I know I'll try deception...

*out loud* Look over there, OB1!! It's a giant lobster with horrible nashing teeth ready to devore all those who do not look upon it's wonderous beauty!! *runs away*


Oh... god! Chocolate cockroaches don't crawl! - OB1 - 27th January 2003

*tsk tsk tsk*

You should be ashamed of yourself.


Oh... god! Chocolate cockroaches don't crawl! - Sacred Jellybean - 27th January 2003

Hey, be quiet. I didn't beat it until a couple nights ago... due to not having a lot of time to play, of course. :S *weaves intricate web of lies*


Oh... god! Chocolate cockroaches don't crawl! - big guy - 27th January 2003

i too haven't beaten it, because metroid prime is a bitch of a thing to kill...i got so furious i've been playing warcraft 3 for the past few weeks...but now it's making me so furious that i went back to metroid prime, but want to get 100% before i try to beat it...so i'm just running about.

Oh... god! Chocolate cockroaches don't crawl! - Fittisize - 27th January 2003

I'm about 40% through the game now...but I haven't played it for a couple of days. I've been really tied up with hockey/midterms etc.


Oh... god! Chocolate cockroaches don't crawl! - Dark Jaguar - 27th January 2003

Heh, playing WC3 and MP at the same time. That's what I call gamin'! That's what I did anyway :D.


Oh... god! Chocolate cockroaches don't crawl! - Laser Link - 27th January 2003

I'm still at about 55%. I think I've played about 6 hours in the last 3 weeks. It won't change anytime soon, either.


Oh... god! Chocolate cockroaches don't crawl! - A Black Falcon - 27th January 2003

I played for a few days, then got 4 more new Cube games and played mostly them (most of that Burnout and Baldur's Gate Dark Alliance) until I had to go back here to college where I have no TV... so I stopped very early in the game (at the plant boss you have to point those mirrors at). Good game. I'll finish it someday... summer, maybe. I don't know if I'd say its the best game ever (or game of the year or whatever), but it is very good... and maybe I need to get farther. I don't know. Very good game? Yes... I just wanted to play those other games more. It was very hard and I don't deal with that all that well a lot of the time... I usually go to the FAQ when I get stuck in games. Hard and frusterating usually means I stop playing games for a while... especially when I have good alternatives. The problem of course is now I have no TV.


Oh... god! Chocolate cockroaches don't crawl! - big guy - 28th January 2003

i beat the game at 74% last night...just for laughs. it was hard, but i did it...now i gotta go find the other 26 items. what a royal pain...if the enemies didn't respawn, i wouldn't mind the huge hikes...but i shudder to think of going into the mines...they're such a pain.

thankfully i've got all the chozo lores and pirate data's...so i don't need to scan anymore computer screens...although i'm missing a lot of creatures, but i don't know which ones, since i scan everything i come across. i even got all the ones in the tanks at the beginning. hmmm.


Oh... god! Chocolate cockroaches don't crawl! - OB1 - 28th January 2003

Wow, I'm surprised by how so many of you are having such a tough time with Metroid Prime. I thought the difficulty was just perfect, although perhaps a bit too easy. It only took me two tries to beat the last boss, though my hands were completely soaked from sweat the entire time.

Perhaps Prime just seemed easy compared to the insane difficulty of Metroid Fusion's bosses.


Oh... god! Chocolate cockroaches don't crawl! - Sacred Jellybean - 28th January 2003

I didn't find Metroid Fusion's bosses to be that difficult... sure, for a couple of them, I had my moments where I wanted to throw down the GBA and curse the essence of Ulyoath, but I could always manage to beat them within time. They were definately harder than Super Metroid's bosses, though, I'll say that.


Oh... god! Chocolate cockroaches don't crawl! - Dark Jaguar - 28th January 2003

The Fusion bosses were pretty much M3 difficulty to me, except for one... I think we all know what that one is, the bad dream...

It took a while, but combining acrobatic jumping all over the place and hanging around firing missles as fast as my finger could manage worked.


Oh... god! Chocolate cockroaches don't crawl! - OB1 - 28th January 2003

I guess I'm just more apt towards 3-D games than 2-D ones, since I found Fusion to be about ten times more difficult than Prime. I beat Prime in 15 hours at 75%, and I didn't find it that difficult at all.

Another thing is that there is no way that I could beat some of the tougher Fusion bosses (like Nightmare) without losing a lot of health, but I can now beat any of the Prime bosses without losing more than a bar of health.


Oh... god! Chocolate cockroaches don't crawl! - Dark Jaguar - 28th January 2003

I guess you are just more apt at certain games than others. Of course, that's true with everyone. I myself suck at RTS games, though they rock so much that I still love them.


Oh... god! Chocolate cockroaches don't crawl! - OB1 - 28th January 2003

I've beaten Super Metroid a thousand times, but I had a really tough time with Fusion. So did my other Metroid-loving friends


Oh... god! Chocolate cockroaches don't crawl! - OB1 - 28th January 2003

And the main difference between the Fusion bosses and the Prime bosses are that the Prime bosses are easy to beat once you figured out the formula for beating them, but certain Fusion bosses (like Nightmare) don't have any particular formula for beating them, so they are always difficult to fight.


Oh... god! Chocolate cockroaches don't crawl! - Dark Jaguar - 28th January 2003

I got myself a decent attack plan. I basically would jump really high to get it to go high in it's rotation bit, and then go really low, waiting for it to get low and then I jump over it, so basically I'd do that until it did it's slow hover to the left thing, and once it did that, I'd rush to the ladder and fire about 50 missles into it's face in the period of 5 seconds.


Oh... god! Chocolate cockroaches don't crawl! - OB1 - 28th January 2003

You still lose plenty of health though.


Oh... god! Chocolate cockroaches don't crawl! - Dark Jaguar - 28th January 2003

Not really, I'm not even near death after finding this method.


Oh... god! Chocolate cockroaches don't crawl! - OB1 - 28th January 2003

You still lose health.
