The ''the 20000 year old Gamecube graphics hold up to this day'' opinion is getting a bit long in the tooth for me now guys, sorry. It's starting to get extremely predictable, like those ''1st!!'' comments that hit a trend but now have died down because sensible people grew tired of them. I mean , yes the GC was great for it's time but the graphics _do not_ hold up well *today* ppl: they lack fine detail. What _does_ 'hold up' though, is *that Epic opening.* It's Great that Beyond's opening follows in a similar vein of intensity.

Imo, the most likely explanation would be this: Metroid prime is indeed the leviathan after it became adult. Remember the chozos basically use the word "metroid" for "warrior" or "weapon" so for them "metroid prime" would mean "the ultimate weapon". Also, in the game, in both versions its more than clear than the metroid prime is the origin of the corruption, so he is the phazon source (what means he has somehow the hability to produce this substance). With all this, we can conclude by thinking the adult form of the leviathan, has the hability to produce phazon (what has sense since his mission would be to convert the target planet into a clone of phaaze), and to asimilate anything used against him to defend himself (thats why on the normal vital cicle of phaaze, the planet would send adult leviathans instead of larvas, so they wouldnt need a guardian to be safe as it happened on prime 3, where its said that dark samus altered the natural cicle of phaaze and made it produce seeds really fast). So, after we came to this, the thing would be: 1st: Phaaze sends an adult leviathan to Tallon IV 2nd: Tallonian Chozos predict the impact with their improved senses 3rd: The seed impacts and the chozos try to stop the corruption 4th The chozos discover the metroid prime, who asimilates their technologies. Since they cant defeat it, they decide to seal the zone with a barrier 5th The barrier cant contain all phazon so it starts to filtrate tru the barrier and the corruption starts again (but slowed) 6th: The chozos predict someday the ultimate warrior from their species (Samus) will come and defeat the creature. 7th: The phazon keeps corrupting the planet for 50 years, mutating a lot of creatures, and corrupting the chozo's consciences, until the pirates come 8th: Pirates discovers the phazon, and they start experimenting with it. since they see it can be usefull, they start to mine it, until they reach the barrier (they cant pass tru it, but somehow they detect the presence of a creature inside the seed). 9th: Samus arrives to Tallon IV after the events of orpheon, she was searching for ridley but she discovered what happened there by her technology. (theorically the chozo ghosts were there to just show her the path but they were corrupted :c) 10th: Samus gets the keys to remove the seal, but the pirates also knew about this so when she was about to open a space in the barrier to go to the inside, ridley appears to defeat samus, obviously samus wins, and procceds to enter to the seed. 11th: Samus finds the metroid prime, who basically has the same weapons as she has, except because of her armor, so the metroid prime is weaker in terms of defense, samus breaks his exo-skeleton so the metroid prime loses all his asimilated habilities. 12th: Since samus suit was corrupted with a phazon virus, she could chanelling the phazon from the metroid prime to the own creature, what overloaded it and eventually made it explode (in this last part, the metroid prime tried to emulate the fision metroids by pretending to split himself, but he couldnt and after some attempts he became that phazon form we see before the explosion, then he tries to asimilate the armor of samus to protect himself,and thats the conclusion of the game and the birth of dark samus). Since the metroid prime lost his inner hability to produce phazon by turning himself into dark samus, he basically ned to find more phazon to feed himself, what brought him to the pirates laboratories and eventually to aether (this took about 6 months and in that time the pirates named dark samus as "the dark hunter". After this it happens what you see in prime 2 :3

The way I figure it the Cradle blocks the spread of Phazon to a degree but it's not wholly impenetrable. The Pirate research teams that brought metroids to Tallon experimented with Phazon exposure and probably just forgot to put one back in its cage if not intentionally leaving it out. So they could conduct research on Phazon but the greater bulk of it was still locked away, and as long as the barrier is up they can't harvest any of it from the impact crater, having to wait for it to leach through naturally which 1) would take for-fucking-ever and 2) seriously dilute the material's potency. In the meantime they let the metroid dick around on the Phazon deposits, periodically checking in on it, sticking guns and shit on it, etc.

Unfortunatly at 13:09 because they had way less of a big bright saturation in the way, you can see the bone spire thing just break and vanish when the Essence of Metroid Prime appears. There's a few other bits here and there where you can tell the exxcessive light was there to mask a change in geometry or models, but removed the changes are stark and unanimated.

I still think the original lore story was superior and resulted in the least amount of subsequent plot holes. I always tend to just handwave the original plot hole as just that; they do happen sometimes. In this case I think it was forgivable. The original lore script was overall better written and kept more mystery, for example like how it never refered to Samus directly by name and simply called her "The Fledgling".

I grew up on Metroid Prime on the Game Cube when it first came out. I do hold some slight envy to those getting to play the game for the first time now. Seeing how everything aged as a whole, still knocks many modern games of this particular genre out of the park. I didn't get to play games like Halo til much later in my formative years, but I'd argue with kids at school how Metroid Prime was my Halo. Even stating that the smallest details made a world of difference; examples, the rain effects on the arm cannon and visor, the freedom of travel, no loading screens, and the reflection of Samus' face on the visor when an explosion hits nearby. I showed this game to my brother in law last year on the Game Cube (because I won't get rid of the original), and those little details blew his mind, and he wondered how he never knew a game with as much detail as Prime has existed.
