>Limited beam ammo
This was one of the best changes they made to the game. There was zero reason to use anything but the newest beam in Prime 1, specially once you got to the Plasma beam. Stuff like the color coded pirates felt really forced because you could just be running around with one beam, then switch to whatever they were weak to, then once you were done you go back to what you were using before.
Prime 2 makes the dark/light beams equally stronger than the power beam, and then the annihilator beam by far the strongest of them all, but you have resource management to deal with so you can't spam anything but the weakest beam thoughtlessly. Combined with the dark/light worlds and enemies (with the dark enemies being stronger but the dark beam having the OP freeze effect) it makes for a perfectly balanced set of weapons: everything is useful and you'll be using all of them.
