Forums - Nintendo - Metroid Prime 4: Beyond is out now on Switch 1 and 2

Up to the finale; will sit down and finish it tonight.

The game has its issues, but for me they are minor compared to all that it gets right.

Given that the boss fights have been a highlight so far, I am hoping it goes out with a bang for the final one.



Around the Network

I tried the final boss last night. But I quitted because of some bullshit that happens right after you beat him. I refused to comply with the game and that gave me a Game Over, which made me fight the final boss again.

I'll do it for good today. But seriously, I'm very pissed at what the game wanted me (and Samus) to do at the end. I hope that the actual ending doesn't actually commit to that...



Is Prime 4 the new Dark Souls 2?

*DS2 is a good game just not DS or DS3 good.

I kinda think of it more like Bayonetta 3; a very good game that doesn't quite meet the sky high standards of its predecessors because it tries a lot of new things and while most of them work, a few fizzle.

that is a good comparison.  I did like Bayo 3, but a good margin less than Bayo 2 and 1.  Bayo 2 was the best.

Yeah Bayo 2 was my favourite of the bunch as well, for me Bayo 1 was a 9.5/10, Bayo 2 was a 10/10, and Bayo 3 was an 8/10.

For the Primes, I'd give 1 a 10/10, 2 and 3 a 9.5/10, and 4 an 8.5/10.

Kind of funny, I would agree almost perfectly on all rating, except Prime 4, but only because I have not played enough to take a final position.

Ah, I wondered what would happen if I didnt comply. Thank you for the research!
