Nova Beam, I guess... I didn't really care for the beams in the Prime games. What we need is something like the Hyper Beam from Super, because rainbow color = power and the Hyper Beam's power is sexy. Or a charge shot Hyper Beam that shoots like Mother Brain's
The power beam was the same as usual, but I liked how there was some blue in the shots this time around. Probably not phazon related though.
The plasma was awesome, rapid firing it kinda looks like a stream of fire, the charge shot looks like a sun or something, and I love the sound of releasing a charged shot. The charging sound needed a rumble sound or something similar. The high pitched whine doesn't sit right with me, especially after mp1.
Nova.... is ok. My fave color is red, and I hate green.
The hyper beam is awesome. A charged shot kills almost anything. It sounds great too. if you charge it just a little, the shot kinda sounds like its spraying out of the cannon, but if you fully charge it, it really blasts out.

It actually isn't that powerful. In fact a charged shot of Plasma is more powerful. Hyper just has the advantage of being "charged" at the moment of firing which means more shots. That is why I think Hyper beam in the Prime games is more realistic since it actually is more powerful. Although the rainbow effect in Super is better.
i'd say hyper beam, the charge effect is great. the power beam without super missile isn't the power beam anymore. the nova beam is green. the mp3 plasma beam is totally different from mp's and has a powerful charging sound. I pick hyper and plasma :D
Nova is just wave and light together. and then plasma is the original only in the ice and dark's place. then hyper/phazon is the original but you use it when you want to(which i think is really stupid). then there's power.
My Ranks: MP3 Nova- Just feels cool. I just love how the charge shot has that force thing coming through it like it's a meteor or something. Also the penetrating thing's pretty cool too. Hyper- not much too say, it just feels cool, especially with the charge (however, i rarely use it) Power: The second i started playing, I was in pure awe of the new power beam. Instead of shooting just yellow balls of energy, you fired alternatively blue and yellow shots. I always thought the power charge beam look kinda chhesy in MP1&2, but it just looked awesome in this game. Plasma- it's cool, but i dont like it as much as the others. at first, i thought it was cool that you could fire rapidly, but the slower MP1 version is cooler. Also, I hated how when you fired a charge beam Samus made the sound like she was getting hurt.
My Ranks: Series Nova Hyper (MP3) Plasma (MP) Light Annihilator- it was cool, but it was useless Power (MP3) Wave Ice Plasma (MP3) Dark- I never really used it except for portals, doors, and Tallon Metroids. Power (MP 1 & 2)

Which sound? I'm afraid where isn't something like that...
