Admittedly, those crumbling blocks during the escape sequence weren't really fair either :-p Is there a reliable way to escape from this room, without having to resort to savestates? I made it this far 'legit', but unless there's a trick I'm missing this part seems to be nintendo-hard. There's a glass wall I can break with missiles to the left, but the metroid typically catches me before I can make it out of the room. It then proceeds to suck samus dry and kill her. On the way back through Tourian, after defeating the ghost of Mother Brain (seriously, how friggin' awesome was that?), you run into the classic cutscene where the 'super metroid' sucks a sidehopper dry. Question about the section you play through after defeating Mother Brain in Tourian.
