No, I think its just to get extras, like art galleries and a sound test. I think the ending just depends on clear speed and clear percentage (which is just the % of in-game items you found).

I really like how the game actually has events with NPCs and tells a story. It really gives the game a more epic feel to it. I was upset at first to see these 3 other hunters going around with me, and I wasn't welcoming them at all. Rundas was very rude, and he kept interfering with what I was doing, acting like he was somehow better than me. He kind of reminded me of Zero from MegamanX in this regard. It seems that Nintendo realized I would feel this way about the other Hunters though, because you get to kill them all, and that put me totally at ease.
I really appreciated the fuel puzzles in Bryyo. It looks like Nintendo has gotten really creative with forming new puzzle dynamics for the Prime series to keep it from getting stale. I heard that you get to weld things with the plasma beam, and I think that could hold a lot of potential.
I'm not going to buy a Wii though. I simply do not want to pay money for a console, and then pay separately for a game. That's $300 to play one game. I should just pay $50 for one game. If I could pay $50 for the game, put it in my computer, and have the controller connect to my computer, that is totally what I would do. I refuse to buy a console though. It is totally unnecessary when I have another device that has the computing abilities to run the game. It's called redundancy and inefficiency.
The ending only depends on item collection. You can take 100 hours and still get the best ending if you collect 100% items.
???? What system do you *not* do this? You did pay for your PC afterall, and believe me you'll be paying for it again once the graphics card, memory, disk space, sound card, OS, speakers, etc etc go obsolete in a few years. Consoles are almost cheaper in the long run :P
Or I suppose you can buy TV plug-in Atari games :P
Well, I already bought the PC, and I already know that I'm going to buy future upgrades for it regardless. The computer does many things, and the console just does a single thing. Thus, the PC trumps the console.
You can dress it up however you want, but when it comes to the bottom line, if things were my way as opposed to how they are now, I'd be $250 richer.
Well, its official, getting that gold credit by evading Ridley with not a single point of damage in the morph ball tube is near impossible. Its insanely hard. Any tips?
GAH, I knew it, Getting past Ridley unscathed is only a friend voucher, not a gold credit. Guides are wrong again!
Anyhoo, its taken all the way to Hypermode for me to fully realize the full potential of 'Hypermode'
It only uses one tank as its 'energy bar' you have to work with. Any leftover energy is given back to you in the form of life units for that tank that was utilized.
While you're in hypermode, you are INVINCIBLE. ABSOLUTELY! No shit.
And going into corrupt mode is actually a very good blessing. Because it refills your phazon meter to near full. (don't let it go too full or you'll die instantly) But regardless of how many times you near empty your phazon guage only to let it fill up again. It still uses ONLY THAT ONE ENERGY TANK!
Let that sink in. The corruption is a GOOD thing. (sort of) It makes you near invincible and an unlimited supply of the best ammo in the game. Unfortunately, the 25 second 'safety-thing' kicks in and boots you out of hyper mode after too long. So that sucks, but you can get RIGHT back into the corruption. On the bright side, if you were corrupted and the 25 seconds are almost up, let the corruption fill your meter to 'near full' but not 'instant death' full and once it kicks out out of hypermode, its as if you hardly used any life units at all!
This makes me look at fighting bosses in a whole new light! Mogenar is going to be trampled baby! Who else is using this lovely new technique of battling?
Got quite a few friend vouchers I can pass around for those interested.
Ummm...yeah, of course :tongue:
I've only exploited the corruption some on veteran mode, but I can see how it would really come in handy in hyper mode. Your other weapons just suck, basically. Without a big damage dealing shot from a super missle, it just takes far too long to kill enemies without using hyper mode. Even shooting 5 seeker missles at one enemy doesn't really phase them it seems.
btw, DWF, which difficulty were you playing when you got the Ridley friend voucher? I missed my chance to get it in normal and veteran difficulty, and I'm worried hyper mode will just be too hard - but that's my only chance unless I want to play the game through again after that.
I found that even in normal mode, the blaster was like a pea shooter until you got the final beam upgrade... corrupt hypermode is the only way to go (though I figured the health I came away with was due to the pickups I got off of dead bodies, not regen via phazon meter... oh well, same effect in the end).
Its the same difficulty in hypermode for the ridley ball tube, just more damage if you get hurt.
Anyone get the yellow credit for safely escorting all 12 demolition men to the gate? I am able to make it to the last room without any of them dying, but once the Commander Pirate (the guy in red with a pointy head) summons the Elite Pirates (which can go invisible), I lose one or two of them.
The Elite Pirates are usually easy at this point because when you use the X-Ray visor and Nova beam, you can one-hit KO them, but when I tried to do that I just get a lot of static interference and can't see a thing. I tried to kill them by going Hyper, but it's not fast enough.
Any tips?
