Metroid Prime 2: Echoes Sites Appear 46
b0r1s writes "Gamespot was among the dozens of gaming news sites to point readers to the arrival of the first of Nintendo's apparent marketing sites for Metroid Prime 2 Echoes. Having started the trend with Datadyne prior to the launch of Perfect Dark, Nintendo apparently pokes fun at ilovebees.com with several different fake domains. Also included are links to government contractors sites. It seems like Channel 51 and Orbis Labs will both be updated in the weeks prior to the release of Metroid Prime 2. Channel 51 seems to have new stories every week, and Orbis Labs promises that test videos of the Battle Sphere are coming soon. In addition, there is a name and password login on the Orbis site, which we expect will be leaked--or even "hacked"--later on."

Actually that's two half-truths stuck together. If you get as far as the Attack Ship level on Perfect Agent (the hardest preset difficulty level) and pick up Cassandra's necklace, you find her username and login (which I don't remember offhand). And if you get a ranking of 1: Perfect in the Combat Simulator you get another username/password ("Entropic Decay" and "Zero-Tau" if I remember rightly).
Rare had originally intended to use these passwords for cool online stuff but they never did it, the lazy devil

There is NO confirmed Perfect Dark game coming to the Xbox. We don't even know for sure if Rare retains the rights to the franchise(knowing Nintendo, I doubt it), and the most you'll find is a few screens, a video(from late last year) and mention of it being made for the Gamecube(3 years ago no less).
Sigh.

I think I cursed more on the freaking metroids that push you off the platforms on your way to the final boss, than I ever did on him (whom I killed on my second try).

In general, I like that style of gaming, mainly on RPGs. Nowadays, most japanese RPGs put a save point just before the boss, in every dungeon. And most of these games give the player items that fully recharge the characters, but can only be used at save points, so, the temptation is strong...
I liked more the way that Lunar: SSSC did it. You had a savepoint outside the dungeon, and mayb

When you enter, just run. Stay to the left of the central pillar so the Metroid doesn't pick up on you right away. Jump on the floating platform, then to the ledges along the wall. When you get to the floating platforms, turn during your jumps so when you land, you are already facing the direction of your next jump.
When you cross the central pillar halfway up and get back to another ledge, ignore the missle reloa
