You know, I've been wanting to replay the whole series for a while now. That would have been an amazing 4, which is tied with Lost Legacy as my favorite. It's been almost ten years since I played it... might be time.

I just got double jump in Metroid Prime 4 after hours of linear funneling through a jungle and a bunch of Matrix factory towers.

Usually double jump is exciting in Prime. Now I can go to all those places I couldn't reach! Only here that never happened.

Shut up, says Prime 4. They're psychic.

Metroid Prime 4 is the Star Trek Into Darkness of Metroid games.

No see hipsters do it as a choice, not because their belt buckle fell apart and they refuse to buy a belt until they find the perfect belt.

... shit.

It's fucked up that I can literally hear it in my head.

This is a good PSA for anyone playing Metroid Prime 4 and feeling a little disappointed by it: you can fire up your 3DS and try a legitimately horrible Metroid if you want to!

Because I refuse modernity at every level, I'm waiting for a cartridge to arrive a couple of days from now. I'm basking in the warm glow of everyone having this revelatory moment.

I named my fists Sonic and Knuckles because they have lock on technology.

And DeviantArt search results for them are profoundly disturbing.

Consumers generally do not care about what a former Square Enix exec whose most recent project was a Silent Hill adventure that was abandoned for being wildly unpopular thinks.

Have we considered that Metroid Prime 4 might be a Gremlins 2 situation? Like maybe the near-decade development team went towards making a glorious parody of the very idea of needing more Metroid Prime? MAYBE THERE'S A BRAINY METROID.

I also badly want to play Other M 2.

The answer to @restart.run's question of who you'd bring to Friendsgiving?

It's Ignis. You know it's Ignis. Everyone knows it's Ignis.

I'm glad it took 8 years for the dev team making Metroid Prime 4 to decide that, hey, maybe the shitty friends approach in Metroid Prime 3 was a good idea after all!
