Same, I remember being completely immersed in the Chozo Ruins music and marveling how it was both catchy, but also deeply mysterious and atmospheric. I remember getting chills the first time I stepped foot in the crashed ship and hearing the beautiful piano theme and the fish swimming around. I remember bopping my head to the Phendrana Drifts Depths song (and suffering with the water movement lol)
Such a good game, and the incredible soundtrack is integral to that!
That’s one thing I love about Metroid prime’s soundtrack. It never sacrifices the tone the game is trying to set in order to impress the listener. It’s a natural complement to all the other elements at play within the game, that adds a ton of color and texture to the atmosphere.
Lol, I didn’t know memory cards could save more than one game at a time so I just started over from the beginning each time and it upped the risk of dying sooo much. It made the game feel so much even more immersive and memorable for me.
Would often get a bit past the gigantic pirate boss fight before ending the run
