Metroid Prime 3 - Rundas Boss Battle Theme

[Wolfspraxis]

@500daysofderp Like they did with Brawl.

[Tark204]

This song is great but sad. Every time I hear it I see Rundas impaling himself on his own ice spike.

[MarisaxLance]

still second best bounty hunter... hate me, but Samus owns all!

[ImaniGray]

@MarisaxLance Who could hate you! Samus should be first in everyones heart :D

Sylux use to be my second but Rundus easily took that spot

[MarisaxLance]

@ImaniGray damn straight XD

[ChuckingDynamite]

when i die i hope this song plays in my head because it's epic it makes your feal like your weakened than makes you feel like your strong, sometimes it gives me the goosebumps it's so good

[950Plasma]

Yeah I like this music

[TheDynastyWarrior13]

two things:

Best theme in all the Metroid Prime series hands down, and Rundas for Super Smash Bros.!!!!

[Pondsisini]

Most. Epic. Music. On. A. Video. Game. Ever.

[av3nger3]

A toast...here's my Land O Lakes Hot Chocolate. Great character.

[av3nger3]

And that's how you can sum up this song...he lived for the fight.

[TheMorrochben]

you hear this nintendo? we demand rundas be a character in the next smash brothers game! :D

[Jeffophone]

From the very start of the game after the little prologue, I knew I'd have to fight the hunters, so when I was getting orders, I was thinking, "Please oh please let me go to Bryyo last, I want Rundas' fight to be the final hunter battle, the epic conclusion, he deserves no less."

"Samus, you must go to... Bryyo."

"NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO­OOO!"

[Rigbymen]

ugly dead of rundas ):

[LewDawg46]

why does everyone love rundas so much,

because he KICKS ASS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Christophe2315]

@LewDawg46

1- Because he KICKS ASS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

2- Because he is the most likeable character in the Metroid universe, despite his arrogance.

3- Because he has an amazing boss fight.

4- Because his battle theme is the best of the entire series.

5- Because he's cool (pun totally intended).

[av3nger3]

@Christophe2315

I guess the arrogance part is why people like idiots so much in their teens right? Although I do not believe Rundas was very arrogant...the guy lived for the fight.

[FrillzenSangheiliXD]

@LewDawg46 I like Rundas because of his cryokinesis.

[LewDawg46]

@FrillzenSangheiliXD that too

[TheQueenLori319]

I beat him once. Got past him, but barely.

[SuzakuofSpin]

I thought Rumdas was so cool, I was so sad when battling him. Ill try hearing the voices

[SofuckinKool]

Better than most of Mike Oldfield´s themes

[dadude1200]

i just had a thought. perhaps killing Rundas was sort of paying him back. Samus spared him from a life of evil which Rundas didn't want.

[dadude1200]

do you know what makes rundas even awesome-er? he was voiced by the same guy who voiced vegeta!

[Bowser641119]

@dadude1200 AWESOMENESS IS OVER 9000!

[GamerWatcher]

@dadude1200 That's an epic win.

[dadude1200]

this guy was very *puts sunglasses on* cool.

YYEEEAAAHHH

[ineedafkinusername]

I keep hearing Samus' name being whispered in the background, am I just hearing things? I swear to god I hear something

[Persona4fan75]

@ineedafkinusername i hear it

[OPTICGHOST360]

@ineedafkinusername i think its saying samus help me listen closely

[zealot925]

@OPTICGHOST360 Yes you are correct, auttaa is Finnish for "help"

[zealot925]

@ineedafkinusername You're not crazy, the lyrics are "Samus auttaa"

[dadude1200]

@ineedafkinusername no your ok hear it too

[FangSylux]

What I don't understand is that if Rundas regained conscience and then killed himself, or if Dark Samus killed him

[zealot925]

Mm, well i'm doing more research and i have to admit that it might be Sylux's ship, the big question though is what Sylux is doing following Samus? ( IF that is Sylux). Metroid Prime Hunters takes place between Metroid Prime and Metroid Prime 2: Echoes. I only hope that this mystery will be unraveled soon. 

[FangSylux]

@zealot925 Sylux is known to be a resourceful tracker, also he/she/it hates the GF and Samus. So Sylux could be trying to hunt her, afterall, Sylux is a bounty hunter

[FangSylux]

Is it just me or does everyone who makes friends with Samus die? Adam, Rundas, the other hunters, and then there's her parents.

[lemjor10]

@FangSylux The "REMEMBA' ME?" guy is still alive and kicking... Damn shame I can't remember his name.

[FangSylux]

@lemjor10 Is it Anthony Higgs? But yes, I think I know who you're talking about, I haven't actually got Other M yet but I will eventually

[lemjor10]

@FangSylux Yes that is his name Thanks. BTW if there is a GameStop by you, you can pick up a new copy of Other M for $10. The game it's self is good it's the story and over dramatic voice acting that mot people complain about.

[FangSylux]

@lemjor10 Thanks.

[rubyjuly94]

IDK why but in the game, Rundas has a pretty sexy voice for a Phrygisian like him! <3

[RogeSoja]

HOW IT REALLY HAPPENED

Rundas: That was a little too hot for my liking. But, now you owe me one.

(one month later)

Rundas: Calling in that favor. Threesome with your hot evil sister?

Samus: (shoots Rundas in the face)

[hinatakat0x]

Rundas should have been in Super Smash Bros Brawl instead of Sonic... I'll bet his final smash would be awesome...

[linkronny]

@hinatakat0x maybe an iceberg! :D oh wait... that was taken already...

[SamuraiKnight10]

@hinatakat0x It would've probably been like his hyper mode super in Prime 3, where he spins and chucks his ice flail at you, only it's a full screen spinning sorta thing.

[Timenova2]

@hinatakat0x He would certainly be better than the Ice Climbers.

[LargeFG7777]

@hinatakat0x Thank godness I am not the only one who thinks Sonic's Inclusion in SSBB is cheesy as hell

Yeah I wanted Rundas in SSBB.

But today I never care about this game anymore...

[12nightkid]

@hinatakat0x actually i wish him instead of Wario, i want RUNDAS!!!

[12nightkid]

@hinatakat0x or His Specialty

[Furryfox101]

@hinatakat0x

I agree, Rundas should have been in brawl instead of sonic, he is a much more interesting character than sonic will ever be.

[500daysofderp]

@hinatakat0x Maybe one day Nintendo will take the bosses of multiple nintendo games and put them into a super smash game.

[qaudroxis]

Rundus should be the last one of the three to fight that would've mad him even more epic er

[guidou84160]

The best theme in all Metroid Prime

[QuadroPhazon]

best boss with gandrayda in MP3 (but the best of the best is Quadraxis ! :P )

[RayquazaRocks1]

I was so sad when i killed rundas.. it broke my heart. now when i hear this i fell sad and lonely. LONG LIVE RUNDAS!!

[RSxenom]

I made a save before Rundas's battle just so I can listen to it :D

[zealot925]

rundas didn't die. None of the hunters did

[AbsentMustachio]

@zealot925 yea they did....

[zealot925]

@AbsentMustachio

get 100% completion and you'll see Rundas' ship follow Samus' ship at the end.

[zealot925]

@zealot925 and think about it mate, Metroid tends to bring back a lot of "dead" characters most of the time. Mother Brain, Kraid, Ridley. Now, let's use the logic behind Metroid Prime Hunters. If anyone can recall getting 100% in that game, the six other hunters besides Samus were presumed "dead' as Gorea stole their powers. If you got the 100% ending though, you would see that the six hunters came back to life ( suggesting that they remateralized after Gorea's death). See where i'm getting at?

[FangSylux]

@zealot925 I don't think they came back to life, if you scan the datashades, the Alimbic people tell you that once Gorea absorbed someones powers, they would appear lifeless and weak. But other then that, I agree with you. Sylux stands out among the other hunters, its theme music is different to the other hunters, it actually knows of and hates Samus, and also unlike the other hunters, Sylux's species and gender is not specified

[zealot925]

@FangSylux "After the beast absorbs the powers of Samus' rivals, she defeats Gorea using the Alimbic weapon called the "Omega Cannon". As Samus and the other hunters evacuate the exploding Oubliette on their respective ships, three Alimbic spirits appear before Samus, and honor her with a salute." Excerpt in wikipedia, you can go research it if you want :P

[FangSylux]

@zealot925 What are you trying to prove to me? The hunters didn't die, therefore they didn't come back to life.

[FangSylux]

@zealot925 Ok, sorry, I've confused myself now. But we both agree that they didn't die, right?

[zealot925]

@FangSylux yeah

[zealot925]

@FangSylux That the hunters no longer appeared lifeless etc.

[InuYashafanboyee]

@zealot925 There is no official story on who or what's ship that was. Besides, does anyone remember that Rundas's ship thing CRASHED on Bryyo? And that is looks NOTHING like the ship at the end?

[InuYashafanboyee]

@InuYashafanboyee Sorry, I forgot that everyone thinks it's SYLUX's ship, not Rundas'. But still, rundas's ship crashed on Bryyo, you SAW it, it's not the same.

[lemjor10]

@zealot925 We don't know if it's Rundas or Sylux. to be honest I think it looks more like Sylux's ship than Rundas's

[FangSylux]

@lemjor10 I agree

[vommack]

The only bad thing about this song was that it ended...

[Rundas777]

The boss that will never be forgotten: Rundas

The boss that will never be understood: Nightmare

[syver00]

@Rundas777 i disagree on u. i forgot about the rundas fight quicly no offense. i like this guy dont get it twisted, but in the battle that i'll never forget is the quadraxis battle. nd out of all the bounty hunters, i like gandrayda more. imo i think she can easly surpass rundas. nd ghor.

[tsuyogari2]

rundas was even more badass than the silversurfer

[Gamerboy8611]

@tsuyogari2 imagine this the great Ice surfer Rundas and the Silversurfer....imagine them fighting against each other :O

[tsuyogari2]

@Gamerboy8611 LET THE BATTLE BEGIN (or) lets get ready to RUMBLE!!!!

[Gamerboy8611]

@tsuyogari2 DING DING DING!

[Gamerboy8611]

Respond to this video...  ROOOOUNDD OONEEE!

[dividebyzero100]

This is one of my favorite boss themes of all time. It encompasses the badass nature of the fight and Rundas himself, but stil carries an emotional feel to it. Rundas is fighting you against his will, and there's nothing you can do about it. It brings a tear to my eye.

Long live the Hunter of Ice.

[MetroidGamer26]

@dividebyzero100 I haven't played this game ever since i found out you had to fight him...but you sir...have helped me and encouraged me to go play that game and annihilate Dark Samus for what he did to all the hunters...DARK SAMUS SHALL PAY!!!!!!!

[Christophe2315]

@MetroidGamer26 "he"? You do know that Samus is a girl, right?

[MetroidGamer26]

@Christophe2315 I was talking about Dark Samus and actually now that i think about it, nobody really knows what dark samus is...so yeah...

:P

[12nightkid]

@Christophe2315 let him hes a Retard He sucks dumbass cuz he dosent even know about The Metroid Series i bet he hasent even played it cuz hes stupid

[gruntunit2]

I never got to pay him back for saving me from Ridley :'C

[Rebel40000]

@gruntunit2 You could say that Samus defeating him was the ultimate form of payback.

Pretty deep, if you think of it that way.

[mttloebach]

WHY DID WE HAVE TO KILL RUNDAS!

[dividebyzero100]

@mttloebach Gotta love Joshscorcher.



[joemoe175]

why did rundas have to die D:

EVIL DARK SAMUS >:C

[TheEternalOtaku]

Rundas was voiced by Christopher Sabat, now I feel even worse about killing him

[chrisrocks7011]

some parts of this track is sad

[luckymii24]

ima play this in the winter while im digging out the drive way

[zaccarr1]

Rundas is my favorite hunter =D too bad you have to kill him =(

[chrisrocks7011]

thats awsome battle music

[MetaX24]

@chrisrocks7011 no shit.

[Rundas777]

Just read my username. Don't worry, I killed dark Samus for you Rundas.

[TheBfutgreg]

2:15 sounds like the Parasite queen fight

[HeckNoKing82]

if you want know how my bro beat him well its VERY weird he cornered him then kept shooting also it looked like he was dancing.

[72kingboo]

@HeckNoKing82 That happened to me as well.

[Wakewolfe38]

i dont know if ur reading this but ur video is the only reason i got metroid prime 3

[OrangeGingerSpice]

Man.this battle theme is so epic!Its such a shame I dont really remember this boss fight!Its been so long!!forgive me Rundas!!! >_<

[sofaganino]

How could you not cry when Rundas dies? He spent the earlier part of the game fighting alongside you, saving your life, and even backing you up when the other hunters yelled at you.

Rundas, I will miss you ;_;

[mmorrill3369]

I <3 rundas

[syver00]

@sofaganino smh... smh... i wasnt sad when they all died, i felt sorry for them. i felt sorrry for rundas cuz when u beat him he regains himself, but then he dies, killing himself accidently. then i feel sorry for gandrayda because she was reaching out to samus for help, but she couldnt do anything. and ghor, well he just blew up. GANDRAYDA FTW!!!

[TheYesilikepie]

I hear Samus, Help Samus from 1:30

[migcosta17]

What angered me is that he's the FIRST one to be killed...

Let me kill the bitch and the cyborg first! T_T

[mephiles720]

The great Metroid Prime guy himself, Lancun. Did a walkthrough of this and held a moment of SILENCE, for this boss fight. Even Lancun respects Rundas....

*sobs*

[darthjump]

People if you ever have to fight you best friend, remember this theme in your heads...

[xxsomeperson88xx]

This is going on to my favorites

[Rundas777]

I cried when he died

[equipoarta94560]

Poor Rundas, poor poor poor Rundas. So much I loved him. R.I.P Rundas :'(

[equipoarta94560]

What a beautiful music! I want to hear it in high volume!

[BlaisMedia]

I think this was one of the few times that I was emotionally moved by a video game.

[dadude1200]

@LargeFG7777 thats alright, no-one like shadow.

[LargeFG7777]

@dadude1200 No I removed that comment, I do like Shadow too...of course I think Rundas needs love too, but yeah I personally think Shadow is OK too.

It is because of the Fanboys

I HATE FANBOYS

[BionicTDJ]

After 1:30 i can hear rundas sayin samus, woaw that's so deep

[machogrubba14]

@BionicTDJ yes i can hear him too!! oh the pain i feel!

[equipoarta94560]

@machogrubba14 For me that music is the pain I feel for Rundas

[CryoKatana97]

he looks like a cryogenic elite-flood monster

[Gamerboy8611]

my top 5 hunters:

1.Rundas

2.Rundas

3.Rundas

4.Rundas

5.Rundas

R.I.P Rundas :'(

[547conan]

R.I.P rundas waaaaaaaa

[RogueAscension]

RUNDAS' POWER LEVEL IS OVER 9000!!!

[SuperCrysiscore]

@RogueAscension

What 9000??!!

[jarfayeface]

rundas was the best hunter in the universe

[empsan196]

This song is made by aliens.

[PokemonFan430]

Dark Samus disliked 16 times. She´s evil. She loves to dislike. :)

[DEFENDER6100]

what mentally retarded idiot would dislike this?

[marounne]

forward from 1:30 I hear in the background "Samus auta" which is finnish and means "Samus help" ... Spooky, I can't unhear it anymore

[TheMouzze]

@marounne

Dude, you're so right o.O now I hear it too, why oh why did we have to kill him...

[marounne]

@TheMouzze yeah, I had a game over in this battle just because I didn't want to kill him...then I realized I have to :(

[SNITZ0]

@marounne dude nice one but now I cant unhear it dang it

[WralthAndFloritz]

@marounne Rundas must be scandinavian then

[Sporademus465]

@marounne Wow....you from Finland? Coz i am. :)

[marounne]

@Sporademus465 yup ^^ sieltähän minä

[AncientPeelo]

@marounne

Holy shit, so I wasn't the only one.

What has been heard, cannot be unheard.

[HylianInHeart1]

@marounne I hear it always too D: On se jännä!

[Dannell8D]

Its sad that rundas is dead

[ToaBraco161]

thumbs up if you think mp3 should have had a multiplayer mode ( like mp hunters)

so you could play as rundas

[reyrizeil]

this guy took me 19 times to kill him

[Yoshi784]

they should get around to making a metroid metal version of this :3

[ZinMasster2032]

why is rundas so epic?

[Phazon98Nik]

Rundas is the most cool of the Hunters, and his music is as cool as him (Poor Rundas...)

[Runscales]

Rundas is the BEST.

[TheWeedEclipse]

He looks like the epic version of Elites from Halo

[aqwfunnyfail]

i got this song and gandridas theme on my iphone downloaded >:D (I WILL NEVER FORGET RUNDAS

[MasterJeremy814]

Ehhh. Rundas was awesome.

[iPodDude21]

I once slapped a dude for insulting Rundas and his theme.

[QuartrGuy]

I think joshscorcher said it best:

"WHY DID WE HAVE TO KILL RUNDAS!?"

[theshinymetroid]

this fight makes hundreds of fans kill there favourite character, and plays epic music while doing so

[stingchameleon1]

I haven't played Metroid Prime 3 but is Rundas bad or good?

[Yoshi784]

@stingchameleon1 all you gotta know is that hes badass. and that you should really get around to playing the game.

[DEFENDER6100]

@stingchameleon1 at first he was good,but then he got corrupted by dark samus.

[stingchameleon1]

@DEFENDER6100 oh that sucks.

[dadude1200]

@stingchameleon1 he starts out good, but then dark samus corrupts him with a deadly chemical called phazon, so he goes bad

[stingchameleon1]

@dadude1200 Thanks for the info bro. Appreciate it

[colonel24567]

my first time fighting against Rundas was on veterans mode and man was it an epic battle, hes flippin around all over the place throwing ice shards and missiles at me, flying around and I'm jumping all over the place hitting him with everything I got, used hyper mode at least 5 times, he was actually the most challenging boss I faced that entire game.

[GrayWolf210]

Like if you yelled out "THIS IS FOR RUNDAS!!!!" when you used his ice missle at least once

[ShizukaRyuko]

@GrayWolf210 totally......it reminded me of him each time i used it.....then i got mad at dark samus and then started beasting everything in the room out of anger

[Travis23hadouken]

The best theme ever in Metriod Prime 3.

[Jarrecko]

I think this song in particular compared to the other 2 corrupted hunter battles was made so epic not just because Rundas is awesome but, to give the player the impression that things have just gotten bad and they're about to get a LOT worse.

[rebelstrykeX1]

Best song in the game for what I think is the best boss fight.

[mylesve]

THAT theme ROCKS out!

[Cat11111111nnN]

When I played this game I didnt expected that samus would kill her friends

[Sindel1994]

16 Space Pirates hates this Theme.

[theninjamandude]

Rundas was such a badass. he's was powerful, skilled, and just plain awesome, not to mention he saves your ass. plus, he had such a cool attitude towards everyone. and to top it all off, his theme is epic. it's really too bad he died. but in death, he only became more memorable. R.I.P. Rundas.

[arthas1100]

Rundas Nº2 , the Nº1 is Samus jajja

[loverofjesusMKII]

couldnt nintendo have at least honnered him by putting in Brawl

[brothervalencio]

@loverofjesusMKII SSBB was really late in its development cycle when Nintendo put the finishing touches on MP3 (hence why the latest Metroid game referenced in Brawl is MPH), so there was unfortunately never a chance of that happening. However, I still have high hopes for the next Smash Bros game...
