What's your favorite beam? I personally like the annihilator for its completely awesome special effects.
If I were to trip, would the result be an explosion or a duck?
Will make plots for food.

Wave is cool too, though.

I never even got to see the Ice, Wave, and Plasma beams. I can't find a store selling Metroid Prime anywhere. :cry:

The Annihilator Beam is a piece of utter and complete crap. I don't see how anyone could like such a poorly-designed beam that is almost utterly useless.

That being said, I enjoy the uber-ness of the Plasma Beam in Metroid Prime. There's nothing more fun than dissintegrating Flying Pirates with it.

The Annihilator might be next to useless in some situations, but in others it rocks. Need to refill ammo on some crates? Use the Annihilator Beam. Want to kill all the Hydlings in the Hydrodynamo Shaft? Use Sonic Boom. Need to take a big chunk out of Emperor Ing or Dark Samus's health? Use Sonic Boom. Can't get shots around Mutated Emperor Ing's gargantuan front leg? Use the Annihilator Beam. Need to enjoy the bestest beam effects ever? Use the Annihilator Beam. Need to completely wreck havoc in multiplayer (like anyone actually plays it)? Let the Annihilator Beam rip. Plus, it looks uber cool. :P
Wow, did I really type all that?

But it doesn't have the best beam effects... only the Sonic Boom looks relatively cool. Otherwise, it just fires a big black orb of stupidness. And you get it terribly late in the game and it eats ammo like crazy. Plus, nearly every enemy is inherently weak to either the Dark or Light beams, so why use a beam that is only average in strength against them? The Annihilator is only useful against the Emperor Ing, but I didn't even use it in that battle.

Better than the black blobs is the giant useless slug of a black hole!!!

Plasma beam for me. It was awesome on the older games, and its still awesome on prime.

When you think of it, plasma beam had to sound pretty awesome when it was first invented. :twisted:

Maybe if I'd actually played Prime 1, I'd like the Plasma Beam more... Meh.

The Annihilator beam is one of my favorites for the special effects and it's saved my ass more than that damn plasma beam. >.<
Hello China? I have something you may want...that's right ALL the tea.
