, but this is what peak vidya looks like
>>377484330
The game is fucking amazing except for the backtracking in the end and the missable scans.
>>377484330
the bosses were good.
the world itself was one of those pallet swap worlds and clearly unfinished.
its an alright game if you want more metroid prime but i wouldn't call it a good game.
maybe I should revisit it and actually finish it.
>>377485343
This is now an art thread!
>>377485904
If prime 4 gets announced I will buy a switch that night
>>377484330
nigga i agree,
but thats peak console vidya, which is pleb
its funny how the masses take console shit so seriously.
the real star player has always been pc, even to this day
unrivaled library
>>377485948
>>377485976
enough fps.
hate this shit.
>>377486020
>>377486032
Couldn't we have both? I mean the 2D stuff is great but I like the FPS ones too
>>377486076
>>377485996
PC library isn't good for fighting games, racers, platformers, and some action games
>>377486138
>>377486107
I agree, a good 2D game is long overdue and the formula isn't getting stale since we dont get many quality metroidvania games.
The prime games have been alright and portrayed the series resonably well, but they cant hold the whole franchise.
>>377484330
fucking LOVED this game
LIGHT SUIT IS THE SHIT
>>377486294
>>377486341
remember to turn on detective vision and press the L button all the way down to scan every fucking box on the wall in every single room otherwise the thing you need to use to go to the next room will not work.
every time you want to lock on to an enemy press the L button down all the way again.
what is the microswitch under the Z button doing again? oh nothing it just brings up the map why do you ask do you have some function that would be better served by this handy button with half a millimeter of throw distance instead of fighting a fucking war with a spring every 10 goddamn seconds over at its current button well too fucking bad you can not rebind the buttons in this game because it was made by brilliant scientists that know better than you they are so brilliant they did not sit down and play their own game for a half an hour straight to figure out what a terrible blunder they made.
fuck you.
fuck you.
yes you. fuck right off.
my left index finger hurts now.
>>377486437
no seriously every person in this thread I hope you have a shitty day.
>>377486502

Come on you can't tell the art guy to go fuck himself?

too late, my day is over and it was pretty great

Sanctuary Fortress is undeniably one of the greatest levels in video game history.

I feel so sorry for metroid fans
>I hope this year they announce a new metroid
I feel like listening to a battered housewive.
Why the fuck would any Metroid fan still have any hope left?
This year in august it will be a fucking decade since the last new Metroid game that wasn't an insult.
Just gonna post my favorite pair of screenshots from Prime 2.

While I'm at it, I forgot I stitched this. I'm way overdue for a replay of Echoes, it's been years.

Speaking of which

>Perfect.
>>377488382
I bet you like Prime 3 faggot.
>>377487776
I've never made it through Prime 2. Every time I try I burn out right before the bog and I feel bad.
>>377488535
I want to take Chaika from behind.
>>377488283
Might as well post this classic too.
>>377484330
>peak vidya
Not with that fucking Spiderball boss. I beat the original GC version and not the Wii easymode babby port, so don't even call me casual. That thing can suck my fucking cock.
While I'm posting screenshots, does anyone else remember this thread?
>>377484330
Prime 1 was better.
>>377485343
That feel after playing through the game twice, and ending up with 99.9% twice..
>>377489497
No, what the fuck is this? Looks hilarious.
>>377489497

>>377485586
It's an excellent game by any standard.
>>377484330
>peak vidya
But thats not mgs2
>>377492263
MGS2 was conceptually very interesting but Kojima can't write for shit and the gameplay was trash
Is Retro Studios the only western developer that can make proper boss fights?
>>377486476
This desu
These games are poorly thought out trash
The controls really take the biscuit though
>first person game played with a handheld controller
no one is questioning that prime was some really great development, a nearly flawless progression in a series that people loved, that did almost everything right
but this 'handheld controllers are a real way to play first person games' has gone way too fucking far, they are a concession to brainless normies who actually pay for shit, just like 3rd person games are a concession to the weaknesses of these same controllers, which are always going to be children's toys
OP I think you are right and a fine gentleman for thinking that.
>>377492358
Which fact of this scenario is worse?
>that the eye watched him poop
>That he has no missiles to open the door
>>377487361
Classic
>>377492286
[see above rant about control system by different anon]
As true or as untrue as that may be, these metroid games control layouts were designed by a retarded 3 year old with paulsy.
Not to mention wtf is going on with samus in the metroid prime games.
Which of the two is the better game?
I think we already know, and history will be the judge.
>>377492321
Rocksteady is pretty good too
Blizzard also gets it right quite often, but RPG bosses are obviously easier to design
>>377492785
Dunno man, Arkham Knight had pretty shit bosses.
MP1 and MP2 were masterpieces to me. But something about MP3 is just not clicking with me. I can't quite put my finger on it.
>>377492986
The world isn't connected
>>377492969
Arkham City and ArkhamOrigins (not made by Rocksteady tho)had great bosses.
>>377492986
waggle
>>377492986
Weird because it is my favorite of the 3.
You actually get to explore planets and use the ship so it is the best samus simulator
Only problem is that you explore multiple planets instead of just one that is connected and the beginning drags a lot.
>>377492986
The intro is way too long.
The worlds aren't interconnected so exploration isn't exciting.
Waggle gimmicks.
Lame powerups. The Nova Beam was rad but the ship powerups were crap and a waste.
>>377485904
>Samus' Balls
???
>>377492147
It still blows my mind that fans haven't run with this idea and made a full on Space Pirates fangame.
>>377484330
MP1 > MP2 >>>> MP3
>>377494864
>wasting effort to make a fan game

If I wanted to get sued there are so many crimes that take less effort.
>>377495236
You're focusing on AM2R which poked its head above the parapet too much when stuff like Psycho Waluigi have existed for years.
Studying abroad and consoles are back home.
Really miss playing MP2.
How do you guys usually play it on Dolphin?
I read something that AM2R got an unofficial update in the last few days? Anyone hear about this?
>>377487110
Why did people think this looked bad?
>>377484330
This trilogy is so good...
I remember when the first game came out, it was a a blast. I was not a huge fan of the limited ammo in the second, but overall I ended up liking the game even more than MP1. MP3 was weird, it felt more linear for some reason, but after my second run I actually liked it much more. I guess it was just a bit different than the first 2.
