Fair enough!

You know what happens? It is just that I don't like fanboys. And some Nintendo fanboys keep on saying that OoT is STILL THE GREATEST GAME EVA! And I just think that it is not the case anymore. It is a very subjective matter. I am myself a great Nintendo admiror, but not a fanboy. So I agree with most of the posters of this thread when we say that OoT is a groundbreaking, great, awesome (you name it) game. Specially if you look at it IN PERSPECTIVE, taking into account the games that existed in those days. But I've read too many times posts about OoT still being at the top of the reviews in gamerankings, without considering that those reviews were made around the time the game was released and in relation with the other games OoT was competing against. But they keepon saying it like the actual games are no match for OoT and that is not true! I think there are plenty of games that already surpassed OoT, having grated that OoT was the father of all of them.

To tell you the truth, I don't know. You know why? Because that game is competing for my gaming time against current generation games I just bought which I actually consider fun. In the meantime, playing OoT for me  is like... work. I do it because it gives me something to post when I come here and doing that is fun. IF ONLY I COULD FIND A DAMM WIRELESS GAMECUBE CONTROLLER! But it's been impossible! So everytime I sit down to play OoT I have to do it when my five years old son is not around running and juping. I don't want an accident with my Wii. That is a factor that I must confess has killed the experience for me a little bit.

Some other thing I hate about playing OoT: the menu system. With Zelda TP it was way simpler. In OoT I got to pause the game a lot to play the ocarina, to choose the items, to check the map, to wear the boots, etc...

 

One question: whenever I am done with the water temple, is the game a down-hill-joyride from there?
