Forum:New to the series; (almost) finished AM2R, what next?

I've always wanted to get into the series (until now i've really only read about Metroid, good thing i haven't spoiled TOO many things to myself. Oh well, at least the gameplay still holds up despite all that) but i didn't really have a chance to do so until AM2R was released. I've almost beaten it 100% at the time of writing and have really liked it so far (with some exceptions). I've heard many good things about the Prime games so i think i'll give them a try next. My copy of the Prime Trilogy (got it for quite cheap, thankfully) should arrive some time next week. About Prime Trilogy: 1. What are the motion controls like? I've heard they work just fine for MP3 but i don't know about the first two. Also, i've heard that they're used for something other than aiming as well, something to do with the morphball if i remember correctly 2. Did they fix MP2's difficulty in Trilogy? I remember many saying that the Boost Guardian and Spider Ball Guardian were a HUGE pain in the ass to beat, not to mention the non-stop health drain in the dark aether until you get the light suit FAR later into the game (i know it exists, just not where and when its found so no spoilers or anything), which isn't that big of a problem by itself, rather its when you finally beat a boss only to get killed by the health drain on your way to a savepoint which i've heard happened to some players 3. I've also heard talk about MP3 being considered inferior to MP1 and 2, why (other than it being shorter)? 4. Is Phazon Mines less of a pain in the Trilogy? What about other pain in the ass areas not just in 1 but 2 and 3 as well? 5. How long are the games? some say that MP1 and 2 are made artificially longer by having to hunt for artifacts to open the final area, while MP3 is shorter because you don't need to (i think) '''As a sidenote, are the different questions separated from each other on your screen? Looking at the preview they don't seem to be on my screen which makes reading them a pain and i have no idea why and i can't seem to be able to fix that Ph4z173 (talk) 18:39, October 8, 2016 (UTC)'''
