Like Final Boss, but with a different word there.

And a copy of Mario Strikers Charged. I'm pleased with my ability to get a net monetary gain out of things like this.

I won these by being awesome at Mario Kart DS (and several other games, but mostly MKDS), by the way.

This thread has no particular point, I'm just a horrible braggart.

You're the current guy who's hacking the board despite the fact that it'll be returned to normal in a day or so and no one will even remember the event in about a week, right? You take care of this. I mean you might as well.

Just hit edit thread, check trash thread, and hit submit D:

Edit:

Assuming the same interface as there was when I was staff while also assuming there is no convenient trash thread button yet implemented.

Wii was from token matches; I placed third with thirty tokens. Strikers Charged was from an actual tourney, for UFS, a card game I play.

And the convention center is entirely too large. Everything's so spread out and takes so long to get to just by walking. It's like the other extreme.

This game is awesome and you will discuss it.

I got stuck for the longest time because I didn't read my map.

This happened twice.

I'm on the Valhalla now, though.

Yeah, I beat it last night with little completion 'cause I wasn't trying for that. I'm trying for that now, though, as I run through Hypermode.

I'd give people friend vouchers, but I kinda promised I'd give them all to people I know in real life. To that end, I don't require any from anyone, either.

Guy Perfect's Top 10 List of Things Metroid Prime 3 Does Wrong


#10 - Weapon Upgrades

---

Partly agree, but it's not so bad, really. Maybe not liking one weapon's aethetic feel is a terrible reason to hate this, though.

---

#9 - Friend Vouchers

---

What? No, it requires that you have friends. Anywhere, really. Wtf.

---

#8 - Free-Lock Boss Battles

---

If you're not playing it on free-lock, you're not playing the game as you ought to. There are so many damn advantages to free-lock, and all leaving it off does is make it not control as well.

---

#7 - Linearity

---

Granted.

---

#6 - Loading Screens

---

I never felt that the loading parts were a chore, actually.

---

#5 - Mii Selection

---

You're just complaining for the sake of complaining now.

---

#4 - The PED Suit

---

Eh, personal opinion.

---

#3 - Ever-spawn Triggers

---

Sorry that you suck at the game and can't deal with tension, I guess.

---

#2 - Phazon Metroids

---

Same as above. I mean, seriously, it is not that damn hard to missile them while they're vulnerable. Which is whenever they're charging you.. Which is a lot of the time.

---

#1 - The Conclusion

---

Granted, but there's no way this is #1.

The absolute worst thing about this game is that there is so few songs in the soundtrack section, and that they don't loop. They really dropped the ball there.

I hate stages where you spend more time fighting the stage than you do your enemies...

And Phazon Metroids are real easy once you get the final weapon upgrade. One-hit kills, same as the Hatcher minibosses. Obviously, you haven't played through the game thoroughly enough to know that, which makes me wonder how I'm the one who sucks at it.

---

... They're always easy, though, because it's not hard at all to time a missile to get them. What you have stated has absolutely no relevance to the point at hand. If you had trouble with Phazon Metroids, you weren't very good at the game.

____________________

Once again, there's no logical relation between what I said and what you countered with. You're saying they were annoying to deal with. I'm saying if you didn't just blindly fire at them, they'd quickly charge you, and you could kill them with less wasted time than most late-game enemies, and I'm saying that the fact that you apparently didn't realize this and are being very obstinate about it means that you're not particularly good at this game.

Edit: I'd also like to get off of this subject and back to actually talking about this game, alright?

---

The issue is that you're implying I blindly fired at them. I stopped doing that when I noticed they were dodging my missiles. A charged shot will stun them for a second or two, which gives you time to charge up another shot. I quickly found an effective way to dispatch them. Joy.

The topic at hand is that Phazon Metroids are, to date, the most cumbersome variant of the creature to deal with; I never in any way stated that I found them difficult. If you don't want fights, don't pick fights.

---

The way you phrased it at the start implied you had problems fighting them.

By the way, Fission Metroids.

Just remember, when in hypermode, as long as you don't let yourself hit terminal corruption or get hypermode failure, you're basically invincible. Also, if you just unload into him as soon as you pull off his armor, it does like half his health. In both my playthroughs, I haven't actually seen him go into hyper mode.

____________________
Pay attention. This will be on the test.

Terminal Corruption occurs when your phazon bar stays maxed out for an extended period while you're in a corrupted hypermode. To avoid this, don't let enemies keep hitting you when you have a bar, especially the strong enemies like pirate commandos, and start firing randomly if you get too high. Ideally, you should keep a corruption at about half to three quarters of a bar, so you're not in too much danger but have enough to unload into a threat.

Hypermode failure seems to occur when you're hit too much at one time.

Also, don't spam hypermode too much. If you do, you run the risk of a strong phazon-based attack forcing you into a corrupted hypermode, and if there's a steady stream of fire coming at you and you didn't expect it, that can easily get you terminal corruption, which totally sucks.
