You go through all 4 areas in order, and then you go through them, again, in order, and then you go battle “No weapon can hurt me”. You can go other ways, but you can’t really do anything when you get there.
I could discuss why Hunters sucked until I’m blue in the face, but that doesn’t change why MP3 looks like it is going to suck.

There is no order to the latter stages.
And I really don’t understand what you’re trying to alude to about “no weapon can hurt me” there. Are you trying to say Hunters sucked because it had a final boss with the same quirk as every other Prime final boss?

No, I just like to joke about Gorea’s scans.
(Considering every weapon Samus had could hurt him.)

Haha, I never thought of that.
Perhaps that was just a side-effect of absorbing the other Hunters or something, though.

MP3…Suck? The dickens you say! Anyways, on topic, I wonder if MP3 will be non-linear like the other two Primes. Sure, in two, you had U-Mos telling you where to go, but you could still go just about anywhere…

Prime 2 was meant to be semi-linear, but it’s been victim to TONS of sequence breaking.
Really? o_O
Anyway, it’s WAY too early to judge MP3 at this point. If anything, we can count on this:
Great graphics and music
Great control scheme
Great atmosphere
Interesting expansions on the storyline and universe
Awsome puzzles/gameplay elements that have been integrated into bosses
The reviewers will love it and it will sell like crazy
The only things I’m worried about are these:
Too many cutscenes
Not enough atmosphere
Too many new characters
Lame bounty hunters
Hopefully Retro will impress. I think it’ll be better than Prime 2, but I doubt it will be as Metroid-y as Prime 1.

Retro has spent a lot more time (plus the exclusion of multiplayer) on this one, so I doubt it will be worse than Echoes.
But it isn’t too early to know that it won’t be as good as Prime.
(I wanted to cry when I saw that Andross look-alike tell samus to get to her ship ;_
hear hear
As far as I’m concerned Echoes was good and mine want corruption multiplayer over wi-fi. Echoes multiplayer was admittedly lacking however but still. . .
WANT CORRUPTION!!!
I know that, as a game, it will be great. But I’m a little unsure of how well Retro will handle the Hunter integration.
Nintendo just confirmed that MP3 is going out in 2007.
…
Yay.
There is an ‘Edit’ button you know >_>
Now the question is when in 2007.
gets tired of waiting
The edit button looks at me in creepy ways. I would not dare click it.
And yes… I’m tired of just waiting around with zero fucking info. I WANT VIDS DAMMIT.

You’re crazy, they already showed ENOUGH footage. (And enough for me to hate Retro at that)
i was seeing some MP3 Previews in IGN, and found one where they are saying that MP3 would be a Launch Title, well, i think they are joking XD.
and in game spot i think is Q3 2007, but i can be wrong, i will check later…
It was originally going to be a launch title but was delayed quite a bit (almost a year) afterwards, since that didn’t give Retro NEARLY enough time.

Yea true, but i read in Nintendo power Wii edition…
The controls are better.
Which to me is good.

…you can’t delay a game a year to improve the controls…
Well, yeah, I’m sure that’s not all their doing. I heard the graphics are getting revamped too.
