Only if you attack first. I checked myself.

Crocomire will literally just stand there and yell at you to leave and never attack you until you attack it. I feel bad that the game forces me to invade its home and murder it in cold blood. It doesn't help that it also has the most gruesome death in the entire game. What were they thinking?

There's no missable items like in Super, and furthermore, the game doesn't lock you in that stealth section like I initially thought, so that's a positive. But, while those secret tunnels between areas in Fusion were not enough to get around the space station, this game just removes that altogether and has even LESS links between areas than Super Metroid, making it the Metroid game with the most isolated areas and that's the biggest chore to traverse. Meh. Metroid really needs a warp between save points function, or dedicated warp points like in the Igavanias.

And finally, some little pet peeves of mine. Not being able to turn off items like in Super Metroid bites this game in the ass: no removable ice beam. Fusion did away with this by making the beam upgrades just that, upgrades, but the ice beam permanently locks you with an additional property that might be awkward to deal with. No new powerups , when even Fusion had one or two. Furthermore, Zero Suit Samus. I hate everything about her. It's been 14 years and I still haven't gotten over her existance. Fuck you, Sakamoto.

Still, outside of this I liked it more than when I was a kid. So yep, Zero Mission is a good game but it feels like a step back for the sake of nostalgia. Fusion is above it in terms of atmosphere, looks, gameplay and originality, and Super Metroid is heavens above both in terms of "exploration". Still, thankfully, it borrows from both of them rather than from the original, and that makes it a good Metroid imo.

But they should have put Crocomire in the finished game, I'm still mad about that too.

What I'm saying is, is in Super, he was trying to get revenge for whatever Samus did to him in the cut scenario in ZM (that made his skin melty:possible first acid bath?), but failed.
