God I hope Nintendo gets the person(or people) that made the soundtrack for this game back for Metroid Prime 4. Every song I've heard so far in this game is an absolute banger.

There's another area in Phendrana Drifts that plays like a futuristic version with a funky bass line of the area's original song and this song sounds like it came straight out of Ratchet: Deadlocked even though Metroid Prime came way before it.

Is this wrong?

A game made in 2004 has better and more consistent movement. Sad!

The Flood / Babe Ruth's last daughter passed away
« on: March 10, 2019, 06:51:09 PM »
She lived to be 102 years old. RIP Baby Ruth
Article

Quote
“The Curse” brought about by Babe Ruth’s departure from the Red Sox became an enduring part of baseball lore, but his oldest daughter would have none of it.

Julia Ruth Stevens said her father “would have been the first to refute it.”

Mrs. Stevens, Ruth’s last surviving child, was 102 when she died in her sleep Saturday in an assisted living facility in Henderson, Nev., her only child, Tom Stevens, told the Globe Saturday.

“She was the last authority on Babe, the man,” he said by phone from his home in Nevada.

While living in Conway, N.H., for many years, she became a Red Sox fan. Speaking to the Globe about “the Curse” in 1999, she predicted that if Boston were to win the World Series, “I don’t think it would ever be mentioned again.”

Nevertheless, she didn’t like to tempt fate. In 1995, Boston finished first in the American League East, only to lose to Cleveland in the Division Series.

“I felt like I ought to get out of town, because I was bringing them bad luck,” she told the Globe a few years later. “You know, being a baseball player’s daughter, it’s hard not to be a little superstitious.”

Her friend, Joe Brill of Quincy, told the Globe that when asked about “the Curse,” she had a ready answer: “Daddy loved baseball. He’d never put a curse on a baseball team.”

Mrs. Stevens, he added, “was thrilled” when the Red Sox won the World Series in 2004, breaking an 86-year drought.

In a statement, the Red Sox said the organization joined “the rest of the baseball world in mourning the death of Julia Ruth Stevens, who with devotion, charm, and grace preserved and illuminated the memory and legacy of her father.”

MW2 didn’t get pulled from the shelves because No Russian was a mission that was crucial to the story’s plot. Having just a cutscene showing what happened wouldn’t have had the same emotion and effect on the player. You didn’t have to shoot anyone in that mission at all and the game literally tells you that there’s disturbing scenes that you can choose to skip. You’re not forced to play through No Russian.

I guess now I have to find the grapple beam and another suit upgrade to continue further. I have no idea where they are but one of them has to be in Phendrana Drifts somewhere and that's where I'm at right now.

I also completely missed a Save Point in Magmoor Caverns that I didn't even see until I was going back to Phendrana Drifts.

God this game is just incredible. I'm loving everything about it so far.

I'm liking the enemy variety. At first I hated fighting the Space Pirates but once I figured them out and acquired more missiles/beam attacks, they were so much fun to fight. Their headquarters in Pendrana Drifts was a tough fight but making it out of there alive felt great.

The boss fights are pretty cool as well. Some of the mini-bosses you fight are rather... interesting and unexpected. I'm looking forward to what I'm going to run into once I go farther into the game.

I acquired the Ice Beam before stopping. I wish I had these days off from work so I can continue playing. I don't want to stop.

One detail about this game that I love is the HUD/visor on Samus and how it really feels like you're inside her helmet as she moves and looks around.

Also I was completely blown away how you could see her eyes and face every time you get hit with something that leaves a bright flash of light. You can even see her blink too sometimes. These details just add to the already immersive atmosphere the game has and whoever thought of this is a genius.

I wonder if this was an inspiration for Bungie to have Chief's visor visible in Halo 3, and that game came out 5 years after this one.

I finally got the remote and nunchuck to work properly after messing with the sensor by putting it in different spots. The spot I have it in now I guess was the sweet spot and it was working completely fine for my 6 hour marathon today.

I'm loving every minute of Metroid Prime so far. I was worried about the game being having a first-person perspective compared to the side scrolling Super Metroid, but my worries were gone once I was finally able to play it properly.

The gameplay feels great and nothing feels clunky. Only time it was clunky was when the remote wasn't working at all but that was for obvious reasons.

For a game made in 2002 the game's graphics still look great and I'm assuming the Wii beefed them up to look better for the Trilogy set.

The music is awesome too and was ecstatic to hear some familiar tracks when traversing through the various areas of Tallon IV. When I heard Ridley's Hideout theme from Super Metroid play when I got to Magmoor for the first time, I knew I was in for some shit. The new music is also great. I was in the Chozo Ruins for a long time and I never got tired of hearing the funky beat that plays throughout this area.

From a 2D-side scroller to an FPS game, this feels like a natural evolution done right. It's still the same Metroid.

I’m spending more time fighting with the Wii remote more than the enemies. I waited nearly 2 months for this shit only for it to completely make the game unenjoyable and unplayable. I feel like I’m playing the game with a damn Guitar Hero guitar.

What the fuck was Nintendo thinking making this only playable with the Wii remote and nunchuck? This would be perfect to play on with the Pro Controller.

The F-Zero soundtrack goes hard, especially those songs from the N64 game.

I always put Devil’s Call In Your Heart when I play the F-Zero stages. It’s fucking intense. I still can’t believe this was in a Nintendo game.

Great game, but the sequel Global Assault was way more fun.
