Metroid Prime 2: Echoes
 

Anyone else going through this game right now? It's pretty awesome. The Light and Dark worlds totally have a Zelda: Link to the Past Feel to them, as do some of the puzzles. (Atleast to me)

I cleaned out the first one (Ridley was a pain in the ass) some months ago. The DS kinda ran my cash out, so I'll have to Christmas this one, but Nintendo sent me the demo disc, and daaaamn. This one looks to kill all. Dark Samus is intimidating. She's like the ultimate super boss. This should be a blast.

How are the cenima scenes compared to the first one?

ALL The Graphics are Enhanced. The game just over all looks better.

I've read some reviews where the dark world was criticized as "awkward". What about that?

I haven't experienced any akwardness in the Dark World yet. Basically, the two worlds are the same, but if you go to one area in the dark world some exits/doors/paths won't be there, but there are usually ways to get to the same room from other paths. (Which is very metroid like)

I like the idea of the dark world being a forbidding hell hole in contrast to the organic light world.

The fact that the cube can hold both worlds in the RAM & both look great is quite a deat.

I wanna play this game so bad. Apparently there's a speed run for this game already. I really want to watch it, but then I'll spoil the whole game. I can't wait for Christmas...

How long is the speed run of MP2? I remember the MP world record one being about 90 minutes. :o

I saw a Metroid Prime 100% item collection speed run of 1 hour and 27 minutes. It was simply amazing.

This one is a Hard 22% item collection speed run of 3 hours and 37 minutes. The game is either longer, or they're still figuring out the glitches to exploit.

I just finished Metroid Prime not a month ago with 100% and got MP2 yesterday for X-Mas. I haven't played it yet, save for the multiplayer. I'll certainly post my thoughts as soon as I have some.

Im picking it up with X-mas money. I've been waiting to play it for ages.

I got Metroid Prime 2 for Christmas. I just got to the dark world. It's a pretty weird place. The game is totally sweet, though.

Just got it for Christmas. Now I gotta go play it to death. Excuse me......

I've taken a few breaks while playing it (Just due to lack of time to sit down and play for 5 hours or more at a time :( ) But the game is still amazing to me.

The Grapple Gaurdian almost kicked my ass 'till I realized what I was doing wrong :lol:

Well, Ai, you have MP2, and I have a DS. I think that's... well no, that's not really fair. But it's close.

I need to buy this game, but I've got WAY too many things that my money has to go to. My breaks are 'bout to go out >_>.

Oh, don't worry. I'm still going to end my life at some point, unless I get a DS within the month. I have a plan I'm going to present to my mom soon that may snatch me one.

I've never really had the chance to complete the first MP but I've had Echoes for quite some time now...I'm about 75% done with it. It's an awesome game. The dark world is a real pain to traverse, but it does give the gamer a good challenge. The graphics are spectacular as well. I've really enjoyed the game so far...no complaints here.

I'm not even to the Dark World yet. 4% :embarass:

Lack of free time is to blame there. The game kicks the first one's ass, and that's saying something since the first one is like the best game this generation (til next Summer *cough* Zelda *cough*) to me.

I made a big mistake today and accidently skipped over getting the light beam and tried to get the dark suit. I went up to the door to open up the arena with the two dark temple keys, and realized I only had one. I thought, "...what the hell?" So I had to go back and at some point, I was gaining back health while I was going to the bathroom, and I came back to see the game over screen. I guess there was something in the room that got me. I didn't save for a while, so I was quite angry. I'm an idiot. Oh well. I'm not sure how far I am, probably over 15%.

i have played the game and i guess i just didnt like it. i guess i must be the only one but oh well. i am gonna sell it back tommorrow i think. i=one of the things i didnt like was the lack of dual analog sticks. so looking around is really anoying compared to other first person shooters. prince of persia rocks though
