Dark Pirate Commando have a lifebar the size of Mars? One charged dark beam shot and a missile kills them. Also I can't understand how one calls the areas in Prime 2 generic/bland while he praises the areas of the first game (which are the definition of bland: ice, lava, ruins, mines). The Sanctuary Fortress is one of the most beautiful areas I've ever seen in a game.
Prime 3 is probably the best in the series, but even on Veteran mode it's the easiest of the 3. Hyper mode is very difficult though, especially the final boss fight with Dark Samus. I didn't feel the motion controls were overdone at all like in Skyward Sword. The lasso in particular was very gratifying to pull off.
