Metroid: Zero Mission

[NES Boy]

I can't wait to get this game. It's a huge remake of the original Metroid.

[Emu]

I've never heard of this. Got any screenshots or anything?

"Based loosely?" (see link in drunkbrigade's post)

I pre-orderd it weeks ago.

It sounds pretty orgasmic.

[Matto]

It looks plain sexy :yum

[ted-core]

is it still gonna be down and to the left to beat it?

[The Unseen]

JUSTINBAILEY :)

this rom was dumped sometime last nite. i only played it for a couple minutes but it does seem really neat. :o i will make time for it.

[Drev]

I got it, and I just beat Kraid, but that's all I'm doing until I buy the game.

Also, I mastered the bomb jumping technique int his one. I've never really got the hang of it before. :(

[Emu]

Lay one, wait a second, lay another one just before the first one explodes, and when you reach the peak of your jump, lay another one. Pretty simple if you practice.

[drunkbrigade]

:/ I can find any sites that host the rom without giving me DownLoad probs....

I'm worried that this one will suck as much as Metroid Fusion.

[mew barios]

after playin this for about an hour, i make the premature conclusion that this game is very good :o it's similar to the original in some ways. but there's more than enough new stuff to surprise an intrigue :o

Don't worry, it won't be anything like Metroid Fusion.

And Fusion didn't suck moron.

[timrpgland]

I thought Fusion was good, it's no Super Metroid but it was cool.

[Drev]

Fusion was good, but the worst Metroid was Metroid 2 since it was a "from point A to point B" layout and you didn't have to backtrack. :/

Actually I think it seems a lot like Fusion. There is an automap and blips on it tell you exactly where to go next, so it seems pretty linear unlike the original. So far I like it though.

Well, what do you expect from it? It is the same Gameboy that produced the GB Final Fantasies...

[soundtest]

I just beat it on Normal difficulty, 4:17, 65%. :/

SPOILER

beating it unlocks the original NES Metroid :eek

[drunkbrigade]

I just played it for a lil bit and from what I've tried so far, its a awesome game. The control is a lil bit stiffer this time around but the graphics and music is improved a hell of a lot. But I really dont wanna get to into it until I beat metroid fusion.... I'm stuck on the damn samus clone boss. >:

[Emu]

You can only hurt the SA-X with a fully charged shot from you gun. So just jump back and forth and blast it like you would with any boss. :(

[drunkbrigade]

I just finished beating Metroid Fusion & Metroid Zero mission. And after playing through both of em' you can really see the similarities between the two.

Even though Zero missions game was really linear it was a short but sweet. They really need to make a side scroller for one of the consoles.

[Drev]

I'm now making this about the times you got on it.

My recent one was:

Diff: Normal
Time: 1:36:03
Items: 54%

I'm gonna tackle the fustrationg 15% or lower challenge

I just finished getting 100%. The ending pic was kinda dissapointing. :(

I might try Hard mode before I start speed runs. Getting 100% in under 2 hours looks like it's gonna be harder than MF, as Chozodia is extremely big. Then again, I still need to get the best ending in MF too...I really should get around to that...

[Drev]

HARD MODE IS THE FUCKING DEVIL! HERE'S WHY:

* You take more damage, and this time it takes very little to get killed.

* Most enemies are replaced by tehir hard to kill versions (Like purple zoomers, silver skrees, etc)

* Energy tanks will only give you 50 energy rather than the usual 100.

[Nerd]

Holy fuck :eek

But I'm still up for it. I'd just have to get the Varia Suit as soon as possible, which isn't as nearly as hard as I though it'd be.
