On a scale 1-10 how good do you think you are in any prime game? 10 being the best 1 being the worst.
Thread title:
I am clearly an 11.

Super Secret Area - Dead Ahead!
Without wishing to state the ever-so-obvious, you do realise that you're asking this question on a forum frequented by the world record holders for the Prime games? Almost everybody here will be very well versed in them, and will no doubt have pulled off most of the hardest tricks in the game.
rocks, locks, and invisible blocks
I have done a lot in prime, never done a speedrun of echoes or corruption. once I did an "unrouted" low% run in corruption and got 23%. I've done a 70% items without wave beam in prime, and a 23% speed run (1:54) and a 22% run, now I'm working on a 21% now, but don't think I'll finish it. I've found some helpful glitches in prime like early energy tanks, SWs and wall crawling tricks,
at metroid prime I'd give myself a 9 out of 10
in echoes maybe a 6
in corruption I'd say a 7 :P

oh i discovered a few small things in corruption too ... they might still be on the wiki or something
Heh, now you made me go check the wiki again just because. Yeah, there are a bunch of small speed tricks and your name is attached to some of them. So yeah, even if the main site never gave credit to most people in the Corruption section we still have the wiki!
As for me, all I've really done is falling in the right spot and lucking into finding the Hazard Shield skip in Corruption. I still say that without us trying to figure out how to get over there and others having made attempts themselves I never would've found it on my own.
But as far as how good I am at the games themselves, it's hard to say. I'd probably go with Prime being my best of the trilogy simply because I have more experience with it, and even then I'm still miles away from being as good as a lot of the people around here. Corrruption would probably be next, and then farther back would be Echoes. I never could get the hang of tricks in Echoes for some reason, and Corruption only had so many tricks back when I used to run it. It's mostly SWs now which are out of my league.

Haha whats the best thing you have done in prime 1-3? anyone.
hmm... well, I did a 2:09 speedrun of prime 3, found 16 secret worlds, found a way to skip spider ball, screw attack, three energy cells, ice missiles and hyper ball, and beat the game with 18% on hypermode. so I dunno... miles is obviously better.

Not to mention the first 21%.
my umbrella goes directly to Bankai
hmm here's my ranks.
mp1: 6 (i could probably get sub 1:30 segmented but since i'm such a lazy bum, i'm at 1:47)
mp2: 7 (my PR is tied with the second best player in the world but it uses new strats so it sucks)
mp3: 3 (abuse the hypermode and.... hmmm)
triology: 5 (i found a way to get better ghetto jumps but other people discovered most of the speed tricks with it and i ran mp2 any% in it)
