Yeah, but the overall quality of the magazine has skyrocketed compared to a few years ago.

Yeah, I can agree with you on that, assuming you mean that they no longer have cover articles on The Jungle Book for GBC, but I still can't get over the awkwardness of a magazine that's tossing around the word "badass" on one page and giving Pokemon Battle Revolution a 9.0 on the next.

I mean it definitely isn't as badly-written as when it was first revamped the latest time, and also they have interesting articles and features now.

Oh, I'm seriously compellled to play through Corruption a third time.

I have not stated it here, but since mid-September, I played through the entire Metroid Prime series after completing Corruption the first time. It took me about a week and a half to complete Prime, a bit less than a week to complete Hunters, another week and a half to complete Echoes, and another week and a half to complete Corruption.

I might kick it into high gear and choose a harder difficulty this time, though...

I beat it a third time to get 100%.

Oh! And I like how the scan articles sound more official, like they did in MP1. The scans in Metroid Prime 2, as I remarked once, looks like some sort of 15-year-old Metroid geek wrote them.

Um I got 100% the first time I completed it. ._.

I sent LD a picture of the stats to prove it.

Don't give me that "um." I wasn't interested in getting every single scan the first time through.

(the second time, of course, I managed to miss a one-time scan)

Vidgmchtr · « **Reply #37 on:** October 14, 2007, 08:42:51 PM »

Well I meant 100% in terms of pickups. I know I didn't get every scan, because the Shriekbats are 90% more surprising than they were in the previous titles.

I liked how they added that whole part that added missed pickups on the map, though. I definitely feel they did not ruin the game by adding that in.

Oh, you should have said that the first time!

Yeah, the marks on the maps made maps much more useful.

I've scanned everything I could and I still have about six missing.... Argh
