lolwut? First off the Prime Series is the series that changed who Samus Aran is. Originally she was a bounty hunter that worked alone in order to revenge up the Chozo, her foster family.

The suit's functionality is no worse than Prime 2's dark/light world system in corniness. Except that you find out why Metroids even exist, how the Power suit is like an extension of Samus, and that the "good guys" have been lying and manipulating Samus.

Honestly having an organic suit makes just as much sense as her going into morph ball mode.

She didn't do anything out of character. She destroyed the Metroids which is the best call.
Primes had an underlying theme/point which is actually VERY VERY DEEP. You learn MUCH MUCH MUCH more about the CHOZO. What they did(created skytown and more). How they lived(the new way of life on tallon 5). Who they helped/taught/created(luminoth/sky town robot people). What they learned(thier future and the future of samus attempting to save them). What they left behind(for samus and for any other civilization). What they said(lore and personal messages to samus). And in prime 3, you MIGHT have learned where they are now hiding. THIS is KEY to the series. THEY are the reason why she IS who she IS. They play the BIGGEST role(yet the most unnoticed) in the series. So primes just add to story but do not destroy nor change who samus is. She is STILL on her mission to destroy all pirates.


as for fusion..........

The organic suit isnt about making sense(cause alot of metroid stuff dont make sense) Its about WHO SHE IS. The CHOZO gave her the power suit, so to take it away and replace it with an organic blue goop is a DRASTIC move from the series. Its like taking away LINK's sword/shield and giving him a paint ball gun. Its just plain stupid and destroys the very CORE of who link is.

maybe im the type that doesnt like super super unrealistic changes in a series

Uhh the base of the Fusion suit IS the power suit. Dude seriously please at least know what you are discussing before trying to discuss it. Why do you think they couldn't remove the suit?

OH RIGHT CHOZO TECHNOLOGY.

God**** its no different than getting the Light suit or any other suit mod, except in this one they reduced her back to the power suit (and even further) trying to save her life.

how come pieces of it were removed? it its isnt just about the suit. i mentioned before than she now has the weakness of the metroids(ice) because she was injected with thier DNA(or blood)......thats ********



im not saying you are wrong or right im just saying this all takes samus off her path, in my opinion.





i just looked it up


"The organic components of Samus's Power Suit had become so integrated with her system that it could not be removed while she was unconscious. Large portions of her suit had to be surgically removed, dramatically altering its appearance. However, the X in Samus's central nervous system were too embedded to be removed safely, and Samus was a chance of survival of less than one percent. "


unless i am reading this wrong(combine the fact i only played parts of fusion) did they take away the blue goop and leave the power suit or is the power suit gone?

But it also plays into the series mythology. She spent much of her career DESTROYING Metroids, and in the end, it's their DNA that saves her. Just like with the infant Metroid in Super Metroid. Saved by the very thing she tried to destroy. Her destiny is linked to Metroids, and the Chozo were thought to have created the Metroids. Everything comes fulls circle.

How come pieces of it were removed? She was going to DIE from the X that were eating her and her suit. The Chozo had made locks to her suit to prevent it from coming off when Samus was like, unconcious and the like. The only canon reason metroids were invented (by the Chozo) was to kill the X parasite and keep them in check. Guess who also made the power suit? Oh right, the Chozo.

So the scientists were having to surgically remove parts of the suit that seemed bonded to her body a la THE CHOZO TECHNOLOGY.

Nothing changed. You're talking about a plot device being ******** that is the same vein as LOL SUPERGOOP PHAZON. And she gets over being weak to ice with a suit upgrade. Humans are weak to ice as is.

And how the **** does that change anything about the series?

Edit: Also you just called Samus "Metroid." Discussion over you lose.

Double Edit: Supposedly the same Metroid saves her twice, Dave. Like some sort of guardian angel, lol.

i slipped. i still catch myself calling link by the name zelda. i dont know why. i guess it was from when i was little

PS: metroid is the chozo term for "ULTIMATE WARRIOR" so that can b used to relate to samus but i dont wanna go that technical about it.

I was actually thinking about getting into the metriod series. But for some reason, I think i'll only like the prime series and the other M. Even though I'm a HUGE megaman/rockman fan.

A Metroid as a guardian angel. That would be funny.

LOL I thought it was okay but I agree at it being the worst game of the series that Nintendo produced. CD-I games are obviously excluded.

WW had incredible style and art but it was boring and tedious more than exciting and magical. Which is was still a good game... just not a great one.

Jerm. Regular MM series >>>>>>> X Series.

You know it to be true.
Hmm, I do agree with that. But I wont say the X series is bad. I liked it. And I like it for starting giving the series a huge plot. (The originals to X to the zero series, to the ZX series. ) Not talking about the branches like exe and legends. I liked those games too. Well, legends was passable imo

Megaman 1-9

Megaman X series

Megaman Battle Network 1-3 (after that they sucked ***)

All of those games were the best MM games. Actually when they added Axel the X series sucked a lot =/

IF you don't like wind waker you can do die in a fire or something..that game was incredible.

Zelda series:

Oot(for nostalgic purposes)
WW/MM tied
ALttP

Then everything else.

Personally sybawave, exe 3 WASS my favorite. But after I played 6, It instantly became my favorite. They gave us what we wanted for one last exe game. I'm really good at exe 4 and 5.. sadly those are the two most hated ones.I like the battle chips and stuff for exe 5 though. I had some pretty beastly folders =] Exe 3 was when I first started building good decks, so I wasnt that great at it.

Windwaker had epic battles, sexy style, decent story, good enough difficulty, EPIC dungeons. Some of the best items. It had everything. if it had a story like TP.. it would have been easily my favorite. Thats why I tie it with Majoras Mask.

The only thing I sort of hated about WW was the sailing parts. Yeah, it's something new and exciting, but it's so tedious to get around until you start teleporting.

I thought MM was okay, but a bit rushed. Like I loved the theme and the masks. I loved the concept of the time and a changing world. Interesting bosses, interesting temple design.

But the overworld design was crap crap crap and a few sidequests meant just waiting for the time to pass, even with speeding time up. Plus the great bay temple was terribad, and I felt underwhelmed by four main temples.

The rest is gold though.

Yeah MMBN2 was voted the best Story and Music.

MMBN3 had the best battle system

MMBN1....got us to start xD

MMBN4 failed completely...Red Sun was too broken and then the story sucked too much. No good combos.

MMBN5 =/ I only likedthe story line because Colonel was a Navi...he was the sexiest MM character to ever exist.

MMBN6....didn't play but I heard had a legit battle system compared to the previous 2. Not as good as MMBN3 though
