Prime was really, the only great Metroid Prime game out there. Echoes sucked and Corruption was average.

Even so the whole trilogy shared flaws with the enemy a.i. the pirates would just run around then stand still then shoot, sometimes they would go all suicidal and run towards you to shoot you in the face risking their own already low life points.

The fetchquest were pretty lame as well but i started to dig the hints the second time around.

I liked the motion controls in Corruption and the silly bit of story but the cheap boss battles and the tacked on Phazon enemies kinda blew it.

Echoes is just a huge and boring flaw.

Enemy AI is actually pretty good for sixth gen games, with the only real exception being in Prime that certain Pirate groups won't aggro if you're shooting Pirates that don't belong to their specific "group."

Not sure what the "cheap boss battles," "tacked on Phazon enemies," or the flaws with Echoes are. Care to elaborate?

I don't agree with the enemy A.I. being good but that's just me.

I didnt like the boring areas, the navigation which between the worlds, the beam ammo< like really? good thing they came back to their senses in Prime 3. Pretty much everything (except Dark Samus) sucked about this game, really.

Well, i should have said the uncreative use of same enemies just on hyper drugs, like were they really any more menacing? They did more damage and forced you into hypermode but that only made it more annyoing as they were still easy to kill and i could easily get out of hyper mode by just mashing the A button. And the boss battles? well they were kinda easy but that just me.
