As a game, I would give it a 9/10. It did so much right. SO MUCH RiGHT.
Pros: I can't even begin to name them all. Here are a few-
-Absorbing story and characterization
-Incredible gameplay (despite a few motion control spazz outs--not an issue, btw)
-Great music
-Heart warming and moving
Flaws:
-very easy
-bosses didn't have the impact of Twilight Princess
-missing some Zelda staples like boomerangs and lighting torch puzzles
-not enough locations
-too much padding to make the game longer
Like I said, as a game, I'd give it a 9/10. But, on a simply emotional level, I gotta give it a 10/10. This game touched me in a way that I haven't been touched since Metal Gear Solid 3. When those final credits started rolling, I was smiling from ear to ear--but a couple of tears rolled down my cheek. After a slow start, this game became something truly special. The gamer in me and the critic in me have reached a compromise. Now, they are going to have sex with each other. Meanwhile, I'll leave you with my final score.
9.5/10
