I think the thing that always gets me is how Rundas is the only one of the hunters to never say a word to Samus post-corruption. Ghor and Gandrayda taunt Samus, but Rundas remained silent. Almost like he hadn't fully given into the corruption. Which makes this song and moment all that more heart wrenching
@@groudonor12 Not the point he was making, there was part of him that was still there. Killing a few things in his way even space pirates, which were under Dark Samus command / control.
He was the first encountered and therefore had the least time for the corruption to take hold assuming they were all corrupted at roughly similar times.
@@KoopaTroopa1116 Like @starjunoditto said, if he would be fully corrupted, he wouldnt touched any pirates like Gandrayda and Ghor didnt! ... But he attacked everything! ... It was like he was on a rampage! Attacking everything what got in his sight! ... Thats why Rundas wasnt fully corrupted! Gandrayda killed (disguised as Marine) Pirates as well yes, BUT only to make it more believable, that the Marine S.O.S call were real, to get Samus falling for her bait! ... At the end, everyone can see it how he wants, because its only stated by logic! ... But nothing was confirmed that he wasnt fully corrupted... just his behavior gave us a big hint! Just sayin ^^
He was possessed directly by Dark Samus though, the others were only corrupted by her energy, yet they were fully corrupted, he wasn't. That's why he was able to resist long enough to help Samus. Even then, as Samus won, you saw him regain his senses before Dark Samus impaled him and took his essence.
This is, without doubt, one of the single best themes ever made. It reflects perfectly the mood of the battle. Fierce, yet forced, but above all feelings present is the pain caused by the unavoidable annihilation of a friend. A scene set up by Dark Samus through your own bloodstained hands and a broken mind.
I think we can all agree that he’s one that didn’t have to die so early. We should have had to kill him, period. Yet he will always been remembered as a hero in the end. R.I.P. Rundas
This should have been the final hunter encounter. You see all the people you held close one way or another fall to the corruption. With Gandrayda falling first, and Rundas, your closest friend, falling last. You meet him, and your heart is broken as you face the grim realization that he is already lost. And now you are going to put him down. You have to, or else he will put you down instead. With your final goodbyes to your former comrade, you set out to end this brutal war once and for all. You set off for planet Phaze.
@@trashaimgamer7822 plus, the final cutscene with Gandrayda, you already have your part of the request of "seeing" the 2 fellow bounty hunters fall to the corruption (and suffering in defeat too).
From a progression perspective, a fight that test you in multiple ways makes sense as an endgame boss and having a shapeshifter character is a perfect fit for such a fight. She literally becomes the other two hunters within the boss fight so it makes sense to put them all together only after you've seen each of them before. I agree that there would be more emotional impact to finishing things with Rundas, but mechanically, Gandrayda makes the most sense as the final hunter you face.
Meta E. Most bosses are meant to make you feel weak, and the music helps drive in that point, so I don't think it was wasted, more of, not as well placed as it could be.
I feel you. I was Almost just as heartbroken when this fight came about. Even back in the day, I forced myself to become hard like stone & steel, seeing a friend and comrade crying out for help… I rationalized in my mind and heart: “He cannot control himself. It may not be Clean, but I can end his suffering Quickly. A Mercy Killing…”
Along with Galaxy and Brawl, Corruption was one of the best early games in the Wii. And Bryyo and Elysia are not only my favorite locales in the game, but also among the finest areas I've seen in a video game!
I'm praying that one day we get a 'Prime 4' of sorts for the Wii U. The Prime trilogy is probably my favourite video game trilogy of all time. I enjoyed these games so damn much and they did everything so well. We need Retro back on this franchise!
xNintendan95x We do need retro back in metroid franchise.... But Prime 4 is not coming out. The prime series along with the phazon is dead. They have to come up with a new name....
Gustavo Paz You didn't like the pirate homeworld? I like that place the best out of all of them. But my favorite of all time still has to be the sanctuary fortress.
manofbedrock YT I did like it, actually. I just like the good old totally-not-Tallon-IV and totally-not-Cloud-City planets more because of their scenery, lore and variety of events. =) Pirate Homeworld is a different beast. It reminds me of Phazon Mines from Prime 1 because of its labyrinthic, claustrophobic feel. Oh, and I adore Sanctuary Fortress, too. The whole place is probably the most original setting seen in a Metroid game!
Damn! Why Samus can´t get a nice AND cool Team Mate that DOESN´T DIE!!! I mean! Come ON! Just imagine how frustrating it would be if in your surrounding everyone would die! Everyone that you befriend with or that you cared for . . . = (
Hey! Nintendo! Listen well! Every Character from Nintendo got an awesome Partner! Even Solid Snake! The lone Metal Gear Wolf! He got AWESOME Raiden! So! Where is Samus´s Partner staying? A Partner so awesome and Powerfull that he can He/She/It can keep up with Samus or even Ridley! Or who knows? Perhaps her Partner isn´t strong but Intelligent and Praktical! Like Clank from Ratchet & Clank! Come on! Samus can´t stay alone forever! Everyone knows that if you stay alone for too long you loose your sanity! >.
As long as the game still keeps the isolation vibe and keeps samus silent, For example, the same feeling when you are near a hard boss, but instead of I'm screwed, It's Were Screwed.
i swear the fights samus has with all these bounty hunters, hunters she used to know, some who were her friends, they left me in tears after wards. but then i thought WAIT OH SHIT. samus has to deal with this emotionally herself.
I think he’s saying Samus what’s the matter Samus why are you crying? This makes it extremely heartbreaking. He’s trying to be tough for her despite his agony to spare her more pain
Of all the games i could have had my first be, it was the final in the chronological order, Metroid Fusion. I really didn't understand any of it at the time, i actually thought it was a one off until i saw this game on the shelf of a Gamestop, this was my second, and then i was hooked on the series.
Unless you count the Hunters demo, my first was prime 2....but the Ing scared me so much I never got to the temple till about 6 months ago when I bought the trilogy (after beating Prime of course) The first I beat was Other M. I am not dissing this song, but MY GOD IT'S OVERRATED.
I kinda agree, it is used way too much, and everybody praises it way too much. And i wish beat hardly any of the games, eventually I'm gonna spend a month beating all of them
Ramp Inc. I am actually making countdowns I am (hopefully) going to upload my first soon. it will be top 4 things about Metroid, and after that (wheather the first is a success or not) will be top ten Metroid bosses. my self assigned challenge for both: don't use the Rundas theme.
I'd like to point something out: The Metroid franchise is no stranger to the concept of cloning, and it would be to farfetched to say that the Galactic Federation secretly obtained a sample of the bounty hunter's DNA, and since Metroid Prime 4 is going to come out at some point... Please, Nintendo?
Yeah...I really want these guys to come back at some point. You can't just introduce awesome characters and then have to kill them like that. Its too depressing :(
when i defeated Rundas and dark samus ghost or what ever it was came in and exorbed Rundas after then i had wanted to get reveng on every person who was dark samuses grunts and dark samus
Daniel Varona I had to use it three times to kill him. Plus, I didn't scan him the first time I fought him, so I didn't know I had to grapple his armor.
Daniel Varona I swear I did the same my body can’t use the Hypermode to kill him I listen to this music so long that I can especially the part at 1:00 goosebumps everywhere and also nostalgic this grandfather.
He was my favorite from the start, because he was so bada$$, before I even knew I was going to fight him haha And then I had to kill him Yeah let's just say I didn't play for a while again.
the only thing that keeps this song from being absolutely epic as all get out is that at the end of its loop (Around 2:15)...it turns into a choo choo train. I wish more focus went to the guitar solo
The PSTD freakout would have been more believable if it was mentioned in game or suggested somewhere along the time. The only place where the PSTD is mentioned is in an old Metroid magna that never left Japan. But by Other M it was so out of place, that scene should have been either covered in Zero mission or in a flashback when she was still in Adam's squad. Not after killing the guy four times already all in VERY brutal ways.
I'm not actually sure of this, because I know that at least in Metroid Prime 2, not every thing you can scan counts as %. Only the things that go into the Logbook (that's the name of the scan thing right?) do count. I noticed this when I got an Missile Expansion after a playthrough, got the message that I collected and scanned 100% of the game, and right at the side of said Missile Expasion was something I didn't scan, but it was just "This gate cannot be deactivated by this side" or something like that.
You can scan bosses at different phases for more information, but it won't add to your logbook if you already scanned it. So you can scan Rundas once for his entry, and then again if you need to know what to do next in the fight. Aside from that though, I'm fairly certain all the Hunters' log entries can be found in a data room on Norion in case you miss them in the boss fights. Other bosses might have you out of luck if you miss them in battle though.
I don' t think there is any hate to be given for preferring the Prime Trilogy over Other M. And to me, the cut scenes were bad, but the worst part of Other M was the general "feel". The entire game just felt a little more plastic to me. Anybody know what I'm talking about?
even back to zero mission it would still feels out of place, i mean, yeah she freaked out in the manga, but the point of the battle was so she could overcome her trauma, and she does, also, in the manga she leaves the federation because they were holding her powers back, not becouse of the abuse other m sugests. overall in other m samus was berely an entity, not to say that she was a very weak one in that game.
Going to pull Colress on ya and say I think that title belongs to Emperor Ing Phase 2 I am talking about best, not favorite, my fav is Meta Ridley's theme.
That was more the art style. I think people hate it more because the controls suck like every game that has tried to use motion controls, there were no healing items, and Samus went from a badass destroyer of worlds that makes space pirates, eldritch horrors, and even the corruption itself run in terror at the mere sight of her, into Anakin Skywalker!
I love this song so much. However, I really feel it would have been a lot better if they had omitted the loud blaring noise that drowns out the guitar from 2:15 to 3:00. Such a waste.
Very cool fight and theme, but I just can’t help but be incredibly disappointed with how Rundas and the other hunters are handled. There is not enough groundwork laid for the emotional impact they want. You do not get the impression that Rundas and Samus have some connection beyond a mutual respect from the intro. Definitely would’ve like for the characters to have some more time to stick around and have more consequences on the story instead of being handled so quickly.
I think the thing that always gets me is how Rundas is the only one of the hunters to never say a word to Samus post-corruption. Ghor and Gandrayda taunt Samus, but Rundas remained silent.

"Fuuuuuuuuuuu-"
One word: Phazon
This is, without doubt, one of the single best themes ever made. It reflects perfectly the mood of the battle.

R.I.P. Rundas
Rundas killed him self rather than work for dark Samus
I swear Rundas is everyone's favourite bounty hunter and I understand why
this theme
and FROZONE
+RandomHaloFan117 Where are my super missiles?
+RandomHaloFan117 don't forget he's saved samus twice and talks like a badass.

That would have defeated the whole gimmick the gandrayda fight is based on. And it would have messed up the item unlock order.

Samus: Rundas, please snap out of it!
Rundas: *struggling to regain control* Samus...you may have no choice but to defeat me.
I remember the first time I heard this music... I immediately felt like I was in a legendary battle, with that epic, nostalgic feel!
True bro. Amen to that.
This fight was far too early in the game for how awesome this song is.
The Parasite Queen was the same way from Prime I.
***** Sooooooooo true!!!
And i agree, rundas fight had to be waaaaay further into the game!!
samy29987 I can't help but feel that the song ended up as a wasted opportunity.
Meta E. Most bosses are meant to make you feel weak, and the music helps drive in that point, so I don't think it was wasted, more of, not as well placed as it could be.
Beautiful boss theme. The feels while fighting Rundas. Definitely my favorite fight in the game.
There is actually a possibility that he did it to himself to stop from hurting Samus.
I agree
Justice will prevail and all that stuff. He might have killed himself to uphold that statement
didn't Dark Samus force him to kill himself?
He did off himself.
There is no ground to contest that statememt.
Just like Rins Dad in AoNoExorcist
I always LOVED Rundas and was heartbroken when I saw I had to fight him :(
I feel you. I was Almost just as heartbroken when this fight came about.
Even back in the day, I forced myself to become hard like stone & steel, seeing a friend and comrade crying out for help…
I rationalized in my mind and heart: “He cannot control himself. It may not be Clean, but I can end his suffering Quickly. A Mercy Killing…”
My favorite boss in the trilogy probably due to the awesome boss theme.
P59u00 Yes probably the best Boss Theme ever

"Man, that theme was awesome, and longer than I expected-" 2:15 "-Is that a guitar solo?!"

Completely unrelated but seeing an Arknights profile picture on a metroid video is like, my two favourite things colliding I love it
Still.. is
One of my most favourite Metroid songs
This song perfectly says "I don´t want to kill my best friend but i will".
It's one of my favorites OST of all times, nice to meet me again! =P
thnx 4upload all this
And like Rundas, the 30 minute extensions of Nintendo music have been slain.
So you're telling us that Nintendo was corrupted by Phazon? At least it explains why they decided to delegate development of Prime 4 to Retro.

Best Metroid game ever.
Not even in the top 5 brotha
a great tune for a very sad moment in the trillogy...

TheTrueLizard I agree with you some of the best theme that I ever heard
*Batman emerges*
Hi Freeze ! I'm Batman !

... Whoops, wrong planet.
*Samus shoots Batman*

epic track. epic battle enough said
😈 I’ve been looking forward for a boss fight like this
BEST SONG EVER!!!
Nintendo, so good at giving us epic and sad at the same time.
2:20 I can hear a little bit of the parasite queen theme in there
very nice boss theme!one of my favorites!(even though he was easy...)

i watched this the other day: Speedyman135: TALKIN' ABOUT FREAKIN' RUNDAS!
the best boos theme in all metroid video game
Gonna pull a Colress on ya, I think the best is Emp. Ing phase 2. BEST, not FAVORITE, my fav is Meta Ridley's theme.
Quadraxis?
this is true my friend. plus that does match his corrupted personality better XD
@Megaman6924 Same I say about Ghor. I liked him a lot.
very nice music
hope the next game will be somewhat placed between MP2 and MP3 so rundas is still alive :D
0:45 that electric guitar in the background
RIP BrawlBRSTMs3 X
:(((
Uno de mis favoritos :like:
I feel like the final part of the music is way too long and feels out of place compare to the tragic feel of the rest of the song.
I want this song in Smash
I thought the Trilogy theme sounded familliar. It has aspects of this.
The PSTD freakout would have been more believable if it was mentioned in game or suggested somewhere along the time. The only place where the PSTD is mentioned is in an old Metroid magna that never left Japan. But by Other M it was so out of place, that scene should have been either covered in Zero mission or in a flashback when she was still in Adam's squad.

Did you know? You need to scan Rundas more than once in his battle if you want to get 100% completion on the game.
Well, I didn't...fml
I'm not actually sure of this, because I know that at least in Metroid Prime 2, not every thing you can scan counts as %. Only the things that go into the Logbook (that's the name of the scan thing right?) do count.

You can scan bosses at different phases for more information, but it won't add to your logbook if you already scanned it. So you can scan Rundas once for his entry, and then again if you need to know what to do next in the fight.
Aside from that though, I'm fairly certain all the Hunters' log entries can be found in a data room on Norion in case you miss them in the boss fights. Other bosses might have you out of luck if you miss them in battle though.
Meanwhile the only scan I missed in Prime 1 was Flaaghra's tentacle >(
He's not cool...
He's ice cold!
I LOVE DARK SUMUS
I don' t think there is any hate to be given for preferring the Prime Trilogy over Other M. And to me, the cut scenes were bad, but the worst part of Other M was the general "feel". The entire game just felt a little more plastic to me. Anybody know what I'm talking about?
Like the world wasn't very organic?
i like :D
This theme sound really sad compared to the two others (especially Ghor). I really hate it when I have to beat him.
even back to zero mission it would still feels out of place, i mean, yeah she freaked out in the manga, but the point of the battle was so she could overcome her trauma, and she does, also, in the manga she leaves the federation because they were holding her powers back, not becouse of the abuse other m sugests.
overall in other m samus was berely an entity, not to say that she was a very weak one in that game.
Best boss theme in the trilogy, imo.
Going to pull Colress on ya and say I think that title belongs to Emperor Ing Phase 2
I am talking about best, not favorite, my fav is Meta Ridley's theme.
Yeah, Meta Ridley's theme is pretty sweet. And I completely forgot about the Emperor Ing theme. Both are very good.
What about Quadraxis? Omega Pirate? Even pirasite queen was amazing... So many to chose from.....
Quadraxis is....meh.
Omega Pirate as well, but only by comparison to themes like meta Ridley who overshadows it completely.
I can't believe you said that both quadraxis and omega pirate's themes are meh.... Dude, you drunk?
That was more the art style. I think people hate it more because the controls suck like every game that has tried to use motion controls, there were no healing items, and Samus went from a badass destroyer of worlds that makes space pirates, eldritch horrors, and even the corruption itself run in terror at the mere sight of her, into Anakin Skywalker!
I love this song so much. However, I really feel it would have been a lot better if they had omitted the loud blaring noise that drowns out the guitar from 2:15 to 3:00. Such a waste.
chuck norris is ganna be ur teacher (song plays)
00:19 I got steroids, it is not legal. I got steroids it is so legal.
If Rundas didn't die, we didn't have that song. ;)
Rundas in super smash Bros
Anyone here because of Speedster?
I can’t be the only one who could not care less about killing Rundas
Wrong. It is THE best.
Very cool fight and theme, but I just can’t help but be incredibly disappointed with how Rundas and the other hunters are handled. There is not enough groundwork laid for the emotional impact they want.
You do not get the impression that Rundas and Samus have some connection beyond a mutual respect from the intro.
Definitely would’ve like for the characters to have some more time to stick around and have more consequences on the story instead of being handled so quickly.
Mm, yummy
it reminds me of the quadraxis theme from echos
he didnt notice his ship missing on bryyo :D
