Congradulations bezerker you win the PH41L 4w4|2|}.

You managed to some how erase your save and you blame it on the game


you know Smashchu, I was about to yell at you for being an idiot and tell everyone else to quit bitching because the guy can be dissapointed with the game if he wants to... but then I clicked the link. That's funny. Well played Smashchu

 


 

Oh god...! My dear god!... This is just TOO FUNNY!... I already didn't believe the guy with his: 'I sat on it and it went through 5 menu's before deleted my savefile stuff' but now... He just made himself more credible XD... That guy: Is one funny guy!...: JUST LOOK AT THE FREAKIN LINK GUYS! ^ Given by Smashchu! Btw: Smashchu: Props for you! This one is hilarious!... I'll never bother about the posts the threadstarter makes... EVER AGAIN!

The only thing that's sad is that it's just a Gamecube game pawned off onto the Wii. This trend needs to end, and it looks like they finally may put some effort into "actual" Wii games. Sorry guys but I am still not impressed(by the games, the system is cool, but it HAS NOT been capitalized on yet)... We'll see.



Hyperbole aside, I can understand where this guy is coming from. I've played through and beaten pretty much every Zelda game, I'm still working my way through the Hard Mode for the original NES game.

I will tell you right now, the only game I enjoyed more than Twilight Princess was Majora's Mask. The storyline is incredible, the controls are fantastic, the mood and puzzles are great.
However, the replay value for Twilight Princess is terrible. What it really needed was some sliding AI so you could go back through with tougher enemies. The only enemy in the entire game that gave me any trouble at all was the Knight, and as soon as I figured out the pattern he became just as easy as everything else.
Along with this, the explore-everywhere-even-if-it-means-getting-in-way-over-your-head aspect that made the original NES game so much fun was totally gone from Twilight Princess. There was never any reason to go back to an area you had already explored and you could never get to a place before the story called for you getting there.
The linearity of the game wasn't an issue the first time I played it cause the story was simply that totally awesome. I beat the game in a week.
the second time through I began to realize that there just wasn't much room to play around with things, and it got very boring very quickly.

It's a good game, excellent story, certainly not an utter failure and complete disappointment, but yes, I can understand the tedium of having to play through a second time.

My Prediction: Wii will be achieve 48% market share by the end of 2008, and will achieve 50% by the end of june of 09. Prediction Failed.

what about a Zelda RPG? you know, hit points and all...different swords, shields, armor to buy? there could be hyrule and the lands surrounding it. towns, villages, actual NPC's that are relevant to the game!!!!

or would that topic just do nothing but infuriate the flamers on here...saying "we don't want our precious Zelda series turned into some Final Fantasy "never ending" crap!?)

Basically.  Zelda 2 is the game you just described, only minus different equipment.  It had HP, MP, and experience points.  Its a stellar game.

Its also the most hated game of the series.  It was my favorite until TP.  TP is now my favorite, as I was very disappointed with OoT and TP does everything OoT tried to do, only better.



Witty signature here...

Wii: 14 million by January  I sold myself short

360: 13 million by January I sold microsoft short, but not as bad as Nintendo.

PS3: 6 million by January. If it approaches 8 mil i'll eat crow  Mnn Crow is yummy.

With these results, I've determined that I suck at long term predictions, and will not long term predict anything ever again. Thus spaketh Crono.

agreed. awesome game to play through once, but incredibly easy once you figure out the puzzles. the enemies are almost a joke after you play through it once.

Heh, it's only the most hated if you're only talking about NINTENDO games.

but what about WAND OF GAMELON?

Suddenly Zelda 2 becomes a whole lot more attractive.

i like TP, more than OOT.
The story is quite good. Control is good. Graphics okie. Dungeons are awesome and the world is huge. I spent 60+ hours to finish the game but i haven't really finish everything

The only complain is the bosses are too easy to defeat



I love Zelda Twightlight Princess NOT because I didn't accidentally erase my game. I love it because IMO, I think the story is nice, the gameplay interaction is definitely an experience I enjoy, and graphics is acceptable.



Currently loving my Wii x2, Xbox 360 Pro & Xbox 360 Arcade, and Final Fantasy 7 Advent Children Limited "Cloud Black" 160GB PS3

GAMEFLY & GOOZEX FTW

Isnt there a rumor about the next Zelda being futuristic?

I heard this too, but I think its just a forum rumor that spread through the internets.  Its based from Shiggi saying the next zelda game would be a complete departure from the standard zelda fare.

Personally, I think it would be damn cool to have a futuristic Sci-fi Zelda, traversing the galaxy collecting the peices of the triforce.  Having the master sword be this bitchin sword of light.  This totally epic game with epic music.

yeah, I'd buy that game in a heartbeat.

I believe that rumor was started as a April fools joke. So a 1% probability IMHO
Right now for me it's
1. OOT
2. TP
3. Link to the past
4. Zelda

But that's all i've played to completion so I dont know jack really.

All i wanted to say is I would LOVE a spinoff game that uses the spinner as the main mode of transportation. Definitely my fav part of the game.
