Skyward Sword is the best since Ocarina of Time

Incredible storytelling, first in the timeline, a real Zelda in danger and a goddess warrior were some of the points that makes Skyward Sword one of the best in the series. In fact, it's the best one since the mythic Ocarina of Time.

Flooded by puzzles in and outside from the traditional dungeons, Skyward Sword defys the conventional puzzles that games like The Wind Waker and Twilight Princess had and feels like a dumbed version from their predecessors.

Despite Majora's Mask almost perfection, Skyward Sword adds a new interesting chapter to the story, unlike the mentioned Majora's Mask which was more like a spin-off.

Controls. Perfect. Use of Motion Plus was justified every time you had to balance on a rope or slash your sword. Graphically it was one of the best on the Wii and artistically a perfect mix from past entries.

A good villian like Ghirahim, a cruel Impa and epic boss fights make this game the best since Ocarina of Time.

I thought it was the worst Zelda since Wind Waker.



Bet between Slimbeast and Arius Dion about Wii sales 2009:


If the Wii sells less than 20 million in 2009 (as defined by VGC sales between week ending 3d Jan 2009 to week ending 4th Jan 2010) Slimebeast wins and get to control Arius Dion's sig for 1 month.

My favorite moment in any Zelda game

You thought wrong.

Re-release with standard gamepad support and I might agree. Of course doing that would actually enable me to play it.

Yes, I loathe the motion controls, and that sucks big time since I am a long time Zelda fan. This is the only Zelda title I have yet to complete and it is entirely due to the control scheme.

 

 

Oh yeah, terrible poll is terrible. What is the point of a poll if your choice is only "yes"? Obviously not everyone is going to agree with your opinion.



iPhone = Great gaming device. Don't agree? Who cares, because you're wrong.

Currently playing:

Final Fantasy VI (iOS), Final Fantasy: Record Keeper (iOS) & Dragon Quest V (iOS)

I don't think so. I thought Majora's Mask, Minish Cap, Twilight Princess, Skyward Sword, Wind Waker HD, and A Link Between Worlds were all better than Ocarina of Time.

Just playing it now for the first time. Three dungeons in at the moment. I don't see why it gets all the hate it does.

Silly me, for thinking that sailing in a largely barren ocean and swimming chasing tad tones wasn't my idea of an entertaining Zelda game.
