Topic: New Zelda Skyward Sword review

GamePro German - 93% (!!!)

Cons -

  • Aliasing, low detailed textures
  • Sample instead of voices (regarding voice acting)
  • No overworld map

 

Pros -

  • Epic Story
  • A lot of innovation
  • User friendly menu
  • Superb control
  • Huge content
  • Zelda flair

 

For reference, this are other scores from the same magazine:

  • Zelda TWW 93%
  • Zelda TP 95%
  • UC3 94%
  • Metroid Prime 92%

 If anyone wants to to discuss about the spoiler tag point at the review, please use spoiler tags.

The cons aren't really that bad. We know what the Wii is graphically. Voices have never been apart of Zelda (CD-i games don't count). The third con is mystery, except for AoL they have always been a part of Zelda so I wonder why it was removed.

93%?

100, 98, 93, 90.

95% metascore seems most likely...

So according to GamePro German this game is about as good as NBA 2K12 which also received the same score in the same issue? =3

Skyward Sword gets the cover of the magazine, even when it isn't the highest score B^)

"Fresh ideas, fabulous graphics and a lot of fun!

The best Wii game of all time?"

It contains a 10 page review with major spoliers. I suppose about the final boss and heavy at story.

BTW, 3D Land gets a 92%.



Proud to be the first cool Nintendo fan ever

Number ONE Zelda fan in the Universe

DKCTF didn't move consoles

Prediction: No Zelda HD for Wii U, quietly moved to the succesor

Predictions for Nintendo NX and Mobile

If NBA has voice acting, then NBA 2k12 > Zelda.

The sky is the overworld map. Saying it isn't is like saying TWW's ocean isn't an overworld either...

I think they mean The Surface (Hyrule).

Remember it's HD as well and probably comes with some on disc dlc that you need to pay for to unlock. So that undoubtedly made the reviewers think that it's on the same level as Zelda. XD

These crazy reviewers...

...are graphics and DLC REALLY that important? And if its the best Wii game ever, why not score it as so?

I know the review is most important, but the score seems wrong (as are the negatives. Issues not thrown up by anyone else...)

They're coming. Settle down :P

Expect to see them in...the next week or so.

Updated the OP and the thread with the new review, and changed the layout slightly...

...will likely change the layout completely and make it more uniform when more reviews come in (i.e. in order of score).

One thing- any better sources for the GamePro Germany score than the one we've got?
