I love that, just like Gandrayda herself being able to mimic other lifeforms, her battle music has little musical cameos from past games, such as the Chykka Adult battle and Phazon Mines.
Phazon mines SUCKS! I hate that place! Anything with space pirates sucks and that’s pretty much all Phazon mines is. The space pirates place in phendrana drifts sucks. The space pirates place in Tallon Overworld sucks. And the beginning space frigate sucks!
You gotta admit the trooper thing was genius. In the Metroid Prime games, Samus is almost always completely alone, with no one to trust but herself. She can't talk to anyone, have anyone to rely on while she's constantly risking death... in Corruption, they give you a section where you finally get to meet some friendly faces, talk to them... And then see them die one by one. Worse, even: they FORCE YOU TO KILL THEM. And even this one GF trooper you thought you managed to save, turned out to be another friend... you couldn't save. I personally think it's genius. The silence that engulfs the overwhelming majority of the time you'll spend playing Metroid Prime is only broken in those brief moments to make you feel even MORE alone.
Slave2thedrago Yeah. I realized it while playing the first Metroid Prime when I met the Chozo ghosts. They could've been the only friendly face on Tallon IV amongst the debris of their fallen civilization and the incredibly depressing log entries detailing their downfall. But nope, they've gone crazy and Samus must fight them too. Like, seriously... poor Samus...
Slave2thedrago It was for me too. And honestly, I could see her at first trying to fit in with the FG marines, but seriously, Adam's decision making was so terribly bad and he was acting so stupidly petty that at a certain point, Samus would've had to tell him to fuck off and start acting on her own.
Yea, you'd think you'd get numb to the isolation but when you interact with others briefly only for it to end tragically, the loneliness hits you all over again.
Antonio SCENDRATE GATTICO what makes this more genuine is when you beat tje game, samus rests at sanctuary, takes off her helmet, and reflects on the hunters, good times and bad, a moment of silence and look of remorse for her fallen comrades. and yes, even you Gandrayda
Man, in the end, when she reaches out to Samus in the form of Samus, it made me so sad, like she held so much respect and even looked up to Samus. I felt like she showed her that Samus was really a bounty hunter she wanted to be more like, but also was saying with that transformation, "Don't give up. Don't die." It was almost as sad as when Rundas dies. TT^TT
+guiltyblade I hated fighting all the hunters man. Being possessed and force to fight their ally/friend. I can imagine what they were thinking when they couldn't control themselves fighting Samus.
In the case of Gandrayda, it was her jealousy for wanting to be like Samus that got her as one of the GF logs mentions that Gandrayda sees Samus as her idol and rival, one that she hopes to surpass. For the case of Ghor, the GF logs state that he was a surviving scientist with a kind and curious heart,however when he merges with electronics (most notably his battle armour) he displays an aggressive side, thus he was "consumed with rage" so to speak. Rundas is a cold and collected hunter plain and simple, using his ability to manipulate ice to hunt and collect trophies of his kills, he succumbed to the hunter's instinct brought on by the phazon corruption.
+Laurence Hecquet He probably did it because of death before dishonour kind of thought process or to offer Samus a parting gift. (got the idea from seeing a little cutscene of Ryu encontering a wolf who died in front of him)
You learn something new with each Bounty Hunter you fight. With Rundas, you learn that if they were missing for this long, then they were most likely Corrupted. With Ghor, you learn that they still retain their sentience And with Gandrayda, you learn that they still retain their pre-Corruption memories
Considering she can transform into anything she has defeated before, I wouldn't be surprised if that gave her skinny body genetic superiority over most things, including her HP...
Cristobal Leyton See the thing is. They can't, the rate of failure is slim to impossible. It's part if the Metroid Prime series, the director is the same and the formula is so basic
I can definitely imagine it being about the rivalry between Sylux and Samus, since Sylux appeared at the end of Metroid Prime Federation Force as a cliffhanger. Also, Prime 4 will never be like Other M. The producer of Other M worked on the upcoming Metroid 2D Title Metroid: Samus Returns. He said himself, that he won't be making another Other M styled Metroid. After the remake of Metroid 2, being Metroid: Samus Returns, he said he wants to approach something new in the Metroid series, so likely a Metroid 5. Regarding Metroid Prime 4, it has a completely different development course than the 2D Metroid, in which the Other M producer was involved in. The development of Metroid Prime 4 is overseen by the original producer of the Prime series, Kensuke Tanabe.
+LightOff ikr holy shit, she has soooo much health too, and using hypermode kills you more than she does because of this, but it was still a really fun fight :)
+LightOff Honestly, this game in hyper mode is harder than 2 echoes on game cube in hard mode, you have to abuse the fk out of hyper mode in order to kill the bosses, and at the same time you're losing your own health, and these bosses don't drop a lot of energy unlike Quadraxis.
If I remember right if you scan her when she transform into samus, it said: She shape-shifted into Samus, She vulnerable to any attack! Wicked burn on Samus lmao. But so true.
This is a great theme & almost a musical farewell to other pieces of music from throughout the series. You've got the Echoes Menu Theme which comes in at 0:17, the chorus that comes in at 0:36 seems to reflect the general tone of most boss battles, the whistling at 0:52 enforces the eeriness of the series, the 'nattering' at 1:05 seems very familiar to the Adult Chykka Battle from Echoes, occasional metal hits from Phazon Mines & the 'distorted hit' from Mini-Boss battles. Best boss theme!
Just had this thought on the other video and thought I'd post it here: What if Gandrayda's theme has all these different sound effects and motifs from other Prime 1 & 2 songs in it because she's a shapeshifter and even her theme music copies it's form from others?
MajorazMasta Not bait. I didn't know somebody did implement it. I thought it was an original idea which I wanted to be implemented with a sample of the Gandrayda theme.
Very clever how they're alluding to the Adult Chykka battle music in this one. It's got the same tempo and drum rhythms, and it's in the same key. Nice bit of continuity there!
On my first time fighting Gandrayda, she knocked me down to 2 units of health, and then I stepped in the acid rain for a brief moment and was left hanging by a single unit of health. I was stressed out, but beating her felt SO satisfying! I wasn't even paying attention to her health bar anymore, I just kept locking on with seeker missiles and jumping around like a flea.
This music is very unique because it doesn't sound like a boss music. Never have i heard such music like this in a boss battle. The intro being very calm all the way to the middle of the song and then it gets a bit deep. Very nice.
Phazon enhanced her worst traits past a corrupted state: her rivalry turned into hatred, she uses every trick in her book to hurt Samus, including using past friends and even turning to herself in the end as she dies, even the last moments of her life. This same enhancement of the other hunters worst traits also happens to them. Phazon is that evil. Yet Samus prevails due to her strong will from the teachings of the Chozo. However, she still is hurt to see everyone die around her. It touches heavily on survivors guilt and what it means to be a hero. Despite the other bounty hunters being rivals of Samus, she still cared about them, and didnt forget them. She hates what phazon did, but it has all been done... she has to move on... she has to be the Metroid aka "ultimate warrior".
In the elevator and on the rooftop in the rain? It reminds me of the second Dark Samus fight in Echoes. That parallel is further played up by Gandrayda being Dark Samus' thrall.
i have played metroid prime 3 all the way trough .. though i didn't understand english so well.. it took me about 4 years and was a pain in the ass but still .. its the best game i have ever played :D last year i was going to buy the trilogy but didn't have the money and when i had it the trilogy was nowhere to be found :cc when i was 10 i allways had wanted to play metroid prime 1 and 2 but never got the chance now i would like to have my childhood back ..... :'c
Hey ! Does anyone have the european version of metroid prime trilogy ? cause i would really like to buy it. if someone does and would be able to sell it i would happily buy it for about 70-80 euros of what ever your current is. i have been searchin for it about for an year :c !!! message me pls !
dude the story of my life. there are so many games i never finished when i was younger because i didn't understand english D: terrible things lemme tell ya x__x
Congrats! speaking of which, I had Metroid Prime 1 when I was a kid and I never got past the first part. I literally never found an enemy to kill ._. stupid english >
This is one of the bosses where I DON'T use hypermode on, except when she transforms, as it is pointless when she is acrobatically attacking you in a circle.
actually in the hypermode difficulty, its best to do the entire fight without hypermode up until near the end when she does get quicker, I ended up not being able to do the fight otherwise. The health pickups you get from the ranged attacks she does dont help at all either.
(badass) Actions speaks louder than (monotone) words. Through the different games, we see Samus demonstrate her enormous courage and will by accomplishing frightening, titanic tasks. In Other M, she doesn't do anything except talk and her contribution to the plot by the end is almost null. I personally cannot associate the Samus of Other M with the Samus from the previous game.
What makes this fight so much more deep is the fact that Samus was closer to Gandrayda moreso than the other hunters. She and Gandrayda were good friends forced enemies by the one in which Samus herself unintentionally created. This fight was always a pleasure to go through
To me this was one of the toughest battles in the game and gotta admit, the tougher boss battles are the best because tough challenges are wat keep me on the edge of my seat fighting with all I got.
Inagine if, after all these boss fights, Rundas, Ghor, and Gandrayda were only thought to have been killed, but just critically injured. Then, by the time you fight Dark Samus on Phaaze, they're fully recovered and jump in to help you fight. And to settle the score. That ending would be so hype.
Fun thing I noticed when Gandrayda transforms into Samus during the fight; her running animation is copied from Samus's running animation in Metroid Prime 2's multiplayer.
obviously just a spinoff, but i would love to see a metroid fighting game. I mean there is already a variety of characters and some bosses to pick from: you got all the prime 3 bountry hunters, dark samus, elite pirates, im sure i could make a better list if i thought about it hard enough but i think it would be fun to play as some of these characters we never get to play as
raptorjesus101 A fighting game? what are you talking about? Prime series are just made in 3D rather than the traditional 2D platformer. The core formula stays the same: Exploration, finding items, upgrading weapons, fighting bosses and the story itself. Other M butchered all of that and big time. Remember how the iconic Varia Suit in Other M was just a redish aura called "varia feature"? the same with the gravity suit? Other M sucks. The only positive about that metroid is zero suit Samus model.
Orochimaru sama you are misunderstanding me. I want there to be a spin off metroid game that is played like a traditional 3D fighting game (like the naruto enter the storm games) featuring metroid characters. I was not even referring to other m nor the prime games. And just my opinion but i dont see how other m is inconsistent with the prime games. I dont think they interfere with each other but i havent played in a while but from what i remember the game was fun gameplay wise.
Gandrayda was the hardest and best battle. She was my favorite of the three new bounty hunters from the very beginning of MP3: Corruption. I especially love the line, "You know, you should never trust strangers Sammy. This is gonna be fun!".
I've never played the GC versions of 1 and 2, but from what I've played of MP1 of the Trilogy version, the Wii controls are so much more efficient. And being able to move around her arm cannon as you move around the Wii remote is pretty cool.
The closest I ever got to dying in this game EVER was on Mogenar, got down to 45 energy before killing him. This boss, while pretty damn easy, was irritating with the invisibility, BUT also the funnest boss in the game.
Mogenar on hypermode was a bitch. Same with the last boss. Had an equally hard time with Ridley on prime hypermode until I realized the ice beam was OP. And Emperor ing on dark echoes hypermode was just a slough to get through the final form after draining my ammo within the first five seconds.
For Emperor Ing I only used beams for the tentacles and the Phase 3. For the eye i used Super Missiles, so I could have Annihilator ammo for Dark Samus. For Meta Ridley in Prime, i used the Boost Ball and then camped him with the Wavebuster. The only bosses that still give me trouble in the entire series are Thardus and the Omega Pirate, Thar for his storm phase and irritating weakpoints, and Omega for glitchy absorbtion, minions, and weakpoints that don't always work. As for Hypermode on Prime 3, I'm going to do that after beating it on the dreaded GameCube Prime 2.
Gabe Freed Use the Ice Spreader for the omega pirate; it takes about 25% of his health bar away each hit. Also, just completely ignore the minions, he will kill them with the shockwave move very quickly. For Thardus, just use Wave beam charges during the storm phase. They don't do as much damage, but they don't miss the weak spots.
samy29987 Ha, Quadraxis on hypermode is all patterns. Now the last fight in corruption on HM is hard as balls. Assuming you had a manageable amount of corruption after dark samus, it was just a hell slog fighting 313.
Best death scene in the game. It's like she thoguht "If I'm going to die, I'm going to make sure Samus is scarred in the process. I'll make her watch herself die."
Yo same. I actually replayed Prime 3 all again to see that fight AGAIN, and I fought Gandrayda for the second time. I wanted to see how her Samus mimic worked and how it was, and I also got SA-X vibes from it.
I loved that twist with the federation trooper, but the battle caught me off guard with very little health and I died 2 times to her, she is so fast and agile and its hard to attack her. Despite that she has a great track, and I liked how the reused part of Chykka's theme
during the Acid Rain part, I thought "this will be my favorite battle on the game" then, she used the boost ball, and I remembered the Boost Guardian... And I hate this battle
a prequel is produced after the game which is further in the timeline. For example, borderlands 2 and Borderlands the Pre-sequel. 2 came first but the pre-sequel was produced after 2 but is set before 2. MP3 is set and produced after MP2. Therefore MP2 is not a prequel.
@kolleamm What I love about this fight is that you always have to be moving. Unlike the two other boss fights where you move a little, Gandrayda makes you move. The rain pouring down and the song goes perfect for a final fight with a corrupted friend.
The thing i love the most about this battle its the satisfaction when you beat her.. And the ending cutcsene That cutcsene fleshed out samus as a character Perfectly and with no voice whatsoever.. that scene its my response to "Samus has no personality before other M" bla bla
If I could have the abilities of any of the hunters, I would have Gandrayda's. It saddened me that they all had to die - they were all such epic characters and awesome fighters. Awesome game. =D
Ya, I do agree with you (DarkRaven), they made MP3 a bit more commercial than before with the dialogue and not-so-lonely feeling. But it had it's upsides too, like getting to use the ship.
I love this game and the music in it PWNS!!! Gandrayda's and Rundas's theme I don't know about Ghor it just keeps repeating but he was a fun boss I wish all three of them didn't die especially Rundas :(
Well, if you want to be technical, it's not really a remix, just a reference/re-used motif. I love how Metroid Prime music throws these references in everywhere. Also, it contains a rather blatant reference to part of Amorbis's theme from MP2. Another fun one: Ever notice the that the Emperor Ing battle 1 from Prime 2 uses the same drumbeat as Thardus from Prime 1?
no i never noticed that but now that i think about it you're right,also the escape from dark aether song has the lighter version of the drum beat of the quadraxis boss.
u are my freind, i kinda figured that it would be her considering that she was corupted with the rest of them and they said tio be on the look out for her and i luv this music
Yeah. It's kinda like thinking "Man I REALLY DON'T want to do this but sadly I have no choice." Then you have a sad look in your eye as you say, "Goodbye, old friend."
I love that, just like Gandrayda herself being able to mimic other lifeforms, her battle music has little musical cameos from past games, such as the Chykka Adult battle and Phazon Mines.
Bruh I never realised this
I LOVE YOUR CHANNEL
Phazon mines, woooooow don't even see that coming
One part sounds a bit like Zants theme when you're in the volcano from twilight princess too.

Worse, even: they FORCE YOU TO KILL THEM. And even this one GF trooper you thought you managed to save, turned out to be another friend... you couldn't save.
I personally think it's genius. The silence that engulfs the overwhelming majority of the time you'll spend playing Metroid Prime is only broken in those brief moments to make you feel even MORE alone.
Slave2thedrago
Yeah. I realized it while playing the first Metroid Prime when I met the Chozo ghosts. They could've been the only friendly face on Tallon IV amongst the debris of their fallen civilization and the incredibly depressing log entries detailing their downfall.
But nope, they've gone crazy and Samus must fight them too.
Like, seriously... poor Samus...
Exactly.
Slave2thedrago
It was for me too.
And honestly, I could see her at first trying to fit in with the FG marines, but seriously, Adam's decision making was so terribly bad and he was acting so stupidly petty that at a certain point, Samus would've had to tell him to fuck off and start acting on her own.
Yea, you'd think you'd get numb to the isolation but when you interact with others briefly only for it to end tragically, the loneliness hits you all over again.
Antonio SCENDRATE GATTICO what makes this more genuine is when you beat tje game, samus rests at sanctuary, takes off her helmet, and reflects on the hunters, good times and bad, a moment of silence and look of remorse for her fallen comrades. and yes, even you Gandrayda

Samus: “After all this time?” “Always,” said Gandrayda.
I saw that trooper and thought 'There's no way he could've gotten this far unaided."
...Well, there wasn't!
You learn something new with each Bounty Hunter you fight.
With Rundas, you learn that if they were missing for this long, then they were most likely Corrupted.

Makes me wonder who's more agile and athletic, Samus in her Zero Suit or Gandrayda? Gandrayda can pull off some crazy moves.
This is one of the bosses where I DON'T use hypermode on, except when she transforms, as it is pointless when she is acrobatically attacking you in a circle.
actually in the hypermode difficulty, its best to do the entire fight without hypermode up until near the end when she does get quicker, I ended up not being able to do the fight otherwise. The health pickups you get from the ranged attacks she does dont help at all either.
Yeah. Unless I'm using it to tank an attack.
(badass) Actions speaks louder than (monotone) words. Through the different games, we see Samus demonstrate her enormous courage and will by accomplishing frightening, titanic tasks. In Other M, she doesn't do anything except talk and her contribution to the plot by the end is almost null. I personally cannot associate the Samus of Other M with the Samus from the previous game.
i do not know of such a horrid wii game you speak of that crapped all over our dear Samus, it may one of the games that should never be named
What makes this fight so much more deep is the fact that Samus was closer to Gandrayda moreso than the other hunters. She and Gandrayda were good friends forced enemies by the one in which Samus herself unintentionally created. This fight was always a pleasure to go through
I hated this boss for how long it was until I saw a speedrun and they landed 3 screw attacks -_-
Are you serious? 0_0 I could really use that to my advantage!
witch the screw attack you can defeat her around 40 seconds if done right
pkleee Insert screw attack echo h.. *Screw Attack*
Never mind
To me this was one of the toughest battles in the game and gotta admit, the tougher boss battles are the best because tough challenges are wat keep me on the edge of my seat fighting with all I got.
Inagine if, after all these boss fights, Rundas, Ghor, and Gandrayda were only thought to have been killed, but just critically injured.
Then, by the time you fight Dark Samus on Phaaze, they're fully recovered and jump in to help you fight. And to settle the score. That ending would be so hype.
*disintegrates*
Tis’ but a flesh wound!
I mean, Rundas literally committed su!cide at the end of his fight with Samus (possibly unintentionally but still)
Fun thing I noticed when Gandrayda transforms into Samus during the fight; her running animation is copied from Samus's running animation in Metroid Prime 2's multiplayer.
obviously just a spinoff, but i would love to see a metroid fighting game. I mean there is already a variety of characters and some bosses to pick from: you got all the prime 3 bountry hunters, dark samus, elite pirates, im sure i could make a better list if i thought about it hard enough but i think it would be fun to play as some of these characters we never get to play as

no it would be a spinoff because it is a fighting game, which is not the same genre as normal metroid games.
raptorjesus101 A fighting game? what are you talking about? Prime series are just made in 3D rather than the traditional 2D platformer. The core formula stays the same: Exploration, finding items, upgrading weapons, fighting bosses and the story itself. Other M butchered all of that and big time.
Remember how the iconic Varia Suit in Other M was just a redish aura called "varia feature"? the same with the gravity suit? Other M sucks. The only positive about that metroid is zero suit Samus model.
Orochimaru sama
you are misunderstanding me. I want there to be a spin off metroid game that is played like a traditional 3D fighting game (like the naruto enter the storm games) featuring metroid characters. I was not even referring to other m nor the prime games. And just my opinion but i dont see how other m is inconsistent with the prime games. I dont think they interfere with each other but i havent played in a while but from what i remember the game was fun gameplay wise.
"You know, you should never trust strangers Sammy."
*"This is gonna be fun."*
I guess she was facing some
CORRUPTION. I'll leave
Never felt so immersed in the moment. favorite boss.
Gandrayda was the hardest and best battle. She was my favorite of the three new bounty hunters from the very beginning of MP3: Corruption. I especially love the line,
"You know, you should never trust strangers Sammy. This is gonna be fun!".
I've never played the GC versions of 1 and 2, but from what I've played of MP1 of the Trilogy version, the Wii controls are so much more efficient. And being able to move around her arm cannon as you move around the Wii remote is pretty cool.
The closest I ever got to dying in this game EVER was on Mogenar, got down to 45 energy before killing him. This boss, while pretty damn easy, was irritating with the invisibility, BUT also the funnest boss in the game.
Mogenar on hypermode was a bitch. Same with the last boss.
Had an equally hard time with Ridley on prime hypermode until I realized the ice beam was OP.
And Emperor ing on dark echoes hypermode was just a slough to get through the final form after draining my ammo within the first five seconds.
For Emperor Ing I only used beams for the tentacles and the Phase 3. For the eye i used Super Missiles, so I could have Annihilator ammo for Dark Samus. For Meta Ridley in Prime, i used the Boost Ball and then camped him with the Wavebuster. The only bosses that still give me trouble in the entire series are Thardus and the Omega Pirate, Thar for his storm phase and irritating weakpoints, and Omega for glitchy absorbtion, minions, and weakpoints that don't always work. As for Hypermode on Prime 3, I'm going to do that after beating it on the dreaded GameCube Prime 2.
Also, could you tell that this theme was a Chykka remix?
Gabe Freed Use the Ice Spreader for the omega pirate; it takes about 25% of his health bar away each hit. Also, just completely ignore the minions, he will kill them with the shockwave move very quickly. For Thardus, just use Wave beam charges during the storm phase. They don't do as much damage, but they don't miss the weak spots.
samy29987 Ha, Quadraxis on hypermode is all patterns. Now the last fight in corruption on HM is hard as balls. Assuming you had a manageable amount of corruption after dark samus, it was just a hell slog fighting 313.
one of the best game songs ever
Am I the only one who was immediately suspicious of the trooper and thought he was genrdrayda from the beginning?
The second I saw the "Federation Trooper" pointed "his" gun at me before the battle, I knew it was on.
gandrayda was such a badass fight....she takes forever to kill on harder levels
God I hope Prime IVs soundtrack is this good
Like Dread, it’s not being composed by Kenji Yamamoto. So also like Dread, the soundtrack won’t be as good unfortunately.
Best death scene in the game. It's like she thoguht "If I'm going to die, I'm going to make sure Samus is scarred in the process. I'll make her watch herself die."
I got flashbacks of SA-X when Gandrayda transformed into Samus in her Varia suit. That gave me chills.
Yo same. I actually replayed Prime 3 all again to see that fight AGAIN, and I fought Gandrayda for the second time. I wanted to see how her Samus mimic worked and how it was, and I also got SA-X vibes from it.
I loved that twist with the federation trooper, but the battle caught me off guard with very little health and I died 2 times to her, she is so fast and agile and its hard to attack her. Despite that she has a great track, and I liked how the reused part of Chykka's theme
during the Acid Rain part, I thought "this will be my favorite battle on the game"
then, she used the boost ball, and I remembered the Boost Guardian... And I hate this battle
0:52 Mariah Carey be like
this theme gives me the chills
ITS SUCH A SHAME TO SEE RUNDAS GANDRAYDA AND GHOR BE KILLED BY DARK SAMUS I LOVE THIS GAME THO ITS NOT AS GOOD AS ITS PREQUEL PRIME 2 ECHOES
Man, you do not know what a prequel is. And speaking in caps doesn't emphasise your point.
Arcanis i do know what a prequel is
a prequel is produced after the game which is further in the timeline. For example, borderlands 2 and Borderlands the Pre-sequel. 2 came first but the pre-sequel was produced after 2 but is set before 2. MP3 is set and produced after MP2. Therefore MP2 is not a prequel.
thats a pre sequel. a prequel is set before certain events
but was created after
*backflipping intensifies*
that order when it was released its like this
zero mission
prime 1
prime hunters
prime 2
prime 3
metriod 11 return of samus
super metriod
fusion
coolest fight setting ever, with the rain pouring down,, and the rusty looking water glowing in the bak ,amazing
should have been in smash 4...
The music or gandrayda?
I wouldn't mind both of them tbh
Hans Christian Johnsen Sakurai doesn't want characters to transform mid-fight anymore, so vote for me instead
i did lol, metroid definitely needs more representative CHARACTERS and not just assist trophies...
I wish more people voted Rundas for Smash. We need more ice based characters and Metroid representatives. He has so much fighting potential.
@kolleamm What I love about this fight is that you always have to be moving.
Unlike the two other boss fights where you move a little, Gandrayda makes you move. The rain pouring down and the song goes perfect for a final fight with a corrupted friend.
Yeah, since when do the Pirates take prisoners? XD
Gandraydas agility and her skill to disguise in everyone make she to a hard boss at the dificulty Hypermode.The music is the right for this fight.
Why is this not in Smash yet?
favorite song and battle of the game.
PLEASE ADD THIS THEME TO PRIME 4 I DONT CARE IF ITS A REMIX of a Rmx BUT FUCKING ADD IT
I haven't even played Metroid Prime 3, only good old Metroid and Super Metroid, and even I think this music is brilliant ^_^
you are NOT walking away from this Gandrayda
I kept fighting this boss over and over just to hear this boss music I love it.
I absolutely love this game. Only thing I hated was BLOODY MOGENAR.
and good song choice for this battle too!
The thing i love the most about this battle its the satisfaction when you beat her.. And the ending cutcsene That cutcsene fleshed out samus as a character Perfectly and with no voice whatsoever.. that scene its my response to "Samus has no personality before other M" bla bla
If I could have the abilities of any of the hunters, I would have Gandrayda's.
It saddened me that they all had to die - they were all such epic characters and awesome fighters.
Awesome game. =D
GIRL FIGHT LOL
Toon Ganon 😂😂😂
I can play this song on the drums. It's so much fun.
Awesome song. Thanks for posting!
Why isn’t this in smash smh
I love this music^^.
Gandrayda is the most cool Boss in Metroid Prime 3.
Ya, I do agree with you (DarkRaven), they made MP3 a bit more commercial than before with the dialogue and not-so-lonely feeling. But it had it's upsides too, like getting to use the ship.
The beat is just so beautiful.
I love this game and the music in it PWNS!!! Gandrayda's and Rundas's theme I don't know about Ghor it just keeps repeating but he was a fun boss I wish all three of them didn't die especially Rundas :(
The bass line that comes in around 0:49 sends chills down my spine. Easily one of the best compositions in the game.
Yeahhh. Rundas is awesome :D
Well, if you want to be technical, it's not really a remix, just a reference/re-used motif. I love how Metroid Prime music throws these references in everywhere.
Also, it contains a rather blatant reference to part of Amorbis's theme from MP2.
Another fun one: Ever notice the that the Emperor Ing battle 1 from Prime 2 uses the same drumbeat as Thardus from Prime 1?
my favourite battle in this prime part! the music is just awesome
This has to be my favorite boss theme and my favorite boss battle ever.
This is my favorite boss, so much fun =D
no i never noticed that but now that i think about it you're right,also the escape from dark aether song has the lighter version of the drum beat of the quadraxis boss.
This goes well with all of Gandrayda's dang flipping D:
This boss and her gymnastic moves realy ticked me off
u are my freind, i kinda figured that it would be her considering that she was corupted with the rest of them and they said tio be on the look out for her and i luv this music
@123PokemonFan agreed, some of the other battles were good, but this was the BEST!
and i absolutely LOVE this music, epic. i will always love metroid games, their the best
This battle was very epic... one of the best music of MP3
I love it
its Ghor ship
1) same color
2) flys from the skies of Elysia where you fought him
3) makes perfect sense- the hunters are still alive
Rundas' theme is the best Metroid theme so far.
i love this song it fits her
Yeah. It's kinda like thinking "Man I REALLY DON'T want to do this but sadly I have no choice." Then you have a sad look in your eye as you say, "Goodbye, old friend."
i didn't really care for the other two corrupt hunters, but Gandrayda made me wish it was possible to play the game through as corrrupted samus...
That's a pretty valid term.
I'm a huge Zelda fan, but one of my friends introduced me to Super Metroid and now the Metroid series is a close second.
such an amazing song. Genius!
