yeah, those last three bosses in Corruption are insane on hard. i played Normal first, which was like 10 times too easy, so then i went to Hypermode, and that took me like a month to beat. i think i died to normal enemies more often than any boss other than Dark Samus and the Aurora Units

MP2: Boost guardian, still a headache. Quadraxis, f*ck you. worst boss is Emperor Ing tho. Dark Samus 4 when the charge beam starts being uncooprative

MP: Omega Pirate's the worst, but no one's really all that hard. maybe Metroid Prime's first form on hard, but still.

Oh man, Quadraxis was awesome when I went through on Hard mode.

I finished him with about 10 energy left, and then I had to scramble to pick up the health he dropped before the atmosphere killed me. I was sure I was going to die, but I got an energy unit with about 3 or 4 energy left.

Lol! You know that part where your about to open the sky light for your ship at the last leviathan seed? That's so funny when Samus gets the smack down. lol.

I thought Quadraxis was fun. My biggest beef with him was how bloody long it took to beat him. Makes sense though, since he's a giant robot that you're dismantling.

My brother was watching me play:
Him: "Alright, Phase 3!"
Me: "OH COME ON."

I keep getting wtfpwnt by Metroid Prime's first form on Cube's Hard mode. xD

I've every energy tank, and I've seen vids of people doing it with just 4. :(

Keep moving. You can shoot its projectiles. Roll under it when it rushes, but don't use the middle groove; it drags its tail. I like to wait for its wave form and blast it with the Wave Buster. Super missiles are good, too. Ice sucks; it's too slow. I haven't played in a while, but that's what I can remember.

Power and Wave forms are easy. Ice is harder, but he's fuxing lethal in Plasma mode. Nothing hurts worse than Prime's lava-beam. xD

I understand how to roll through the correct grooves and destroy his homing glob-thingies, for I've beaten the game countless times on normal. I just need to dodge better, I guess.

I suck-- I really do I'm not going to lie. It's hard for me to believe I beat MP3, Hunters, and Zero Mission. xD
However... I still need to finish all my other Metroid games.....
Anyway here is a short list of my 'suck' Prime bosses. Enjoy.

MP1: I had a hard time beating Flaagara. It's like every time I shot a huge mirror up, he would come over and hit it down. I forget how long the battle was... but gosh darn it, Flaagara drove me nuts. >,<

MP2:
Satch wrote:I still haven't beat the game and I've had it since it came out. I'm on the Sanctuary Fortress now, trying to beat whatever guardian the pillbug is.

'What she said'--- I'm suck at the same place as Snatch. Also the Boost Guardian should rot in Hell--it took me 8 tries to beat him. I counted. EVILLLLLL! :evil:

MP3:
This game wasn't that as bad as I thought it would be. For almost every boss I beat it without having to restart again. The main boss I did think was a pain in the neck was That ball boss Mormartar or something. I hated him. I remember moving my Wii out into the living room and hooking it up to the big screen after a party and my Dad watched as I tried and tried again to beat him. I hit every ball/orb but the one on his back. So this was the cycle I was in--Firing. Dying. Firing. Dying. ect. This guy was hard mainly beacuse I think he can regain those orbs back, and if you don't destroy all of them during a certain length of time then you have to start over. Well--long story short I beat him. And during the battle my Dad kept rooting for me and gave me advice. I think it was one of the best gaming experiences. I was happy when I finally shot down the very last orb on his back and killed him. :3

Dark Samus I found to be really easy for some reason. I beat her no prob. at the end. No-deaths just straight on through. I'm pretty impressed with myself. -However out of all of the Primes-MP2 is really the hardest as far as bosses.

Ice isn't that bad. Just hit him with an Ice Spreader. A few more hits with ice beam with make short work of the ice form, and he won't be able to attack the whole time.

My biggest mistake with Flaagra on my first few attempts was that I would try to get behind each mirror to shoot it, thinking I had to shoot them from the back. But no, you just have to shoot them, from anywhere. Now I pretty much stay put, while dodging his attacks; he's a lot easier without all the running around.

I was actually disappointed a little bit with the Dark AU at the end of Corruption. The pattern was pretty easy to figure. I think that is the only Metroid final boss I've beaten on my first attempt ... so far.

Metroid Prime and Emperor Ing gave me a lot of trouble at first. I kept getting spun around and losing my orientation. I've gotten better with them, though.

Omega Pirate still gives me trouble. He's a bastard in a hand basket, if ya know what I mean. <3 Just recently beat him on HyperMode; had to use the powerbomb.

Flaahgra is easy if you play strategically and defensively.

Its attacks are fairly easy to dodge, and the mirrors are quickly flipped by rapid-firing missiles. Be sure to stun him to prevent him from undoing your mirrior work, and you'll kick Flaahgra back out of the Animal Kingdom in no time. :)

Just like to point out, Flaahgra is a she.... I think....
