Metroid Prime 2 for me was like what Majora's Mask was to Ocarina of Time for me. It was similar in many ways but different enough to totally set it apart. I loved it. The atmosphere, the story, the difficulty (I *barely* beat the game on hard - I beat it on a fluke), everything... I thought more than any other Metroid, the feeling of isolation was best captured in Prime 2 due to how dark the atmosphere was (particularly Dark Aether). And the sound design and music was just awesome. I don't like it as much as Prime 1 (my fav game last gen by far), but it's certainly on par with Prime 3.
