"Ask people which is their favourite Zelda game, and you'll almost always get the same answer. There will always be the odd Wind Waker or Majora's Mask maverick in there, but the overwhelming majority will tell you that it's Ocarina of Time. It doesn't matter whether they're 16 or 35. Ocarina of Time's shadow looms so large over every later Zelda game that they've had to work extremely hard to distinguish themselves; Wind Waker, Phantom Hourglass and Spirit Tracks did it with that cartoonish art style, where Twilight Princess made a slightly less confident foray into novelty with its wolfish Link.

After this year, though, there's a serious chance that answer is going to change. I've spent enough time with The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword now to realise that this may very well be the best Zelda game ever made."

 And proud member of the Mega Mario Movement!

Games don't get unanimous 10's anymore, no matter how amazing they are or better than older games. Hopefully it is that good. I'd like to see another huge game for Wii that isn't Mario.



BOOM!  FACE KICK!

i haven't read it but i have been tempted the last few days. are there any spoilers in it?



    R.I.P Mr Iwata :'(

I don't believe it. I remember reviewers saying that when Twilight Princess was released. What I played was a ridiculously easy game that had one thing going for it. A better story. I'll be buying SS but when each and every Zelda game gets released it's hailed as better by critics. Btw my favorite Zelda is Wind Waker.

Also in no way does my post mean that i'm saying it couldn't be better. I'm just saying I don't believe critics.

I second this question. I've been poking into this thread several times since it was posted, but do not dare to venture further



Monster Hunter: pissing me off since 2010.

IGN said the same thing about Twilight Princess, well their opinion doesn't matter to me anyways since Majora's Mask is my favorite not Ocarina, and next to it is Twilight Saga.



Glad to hear this. I read the article and I love that the puzzles have been reimagined and are largely unpredictable for us Zelda vets, not to mention how cool the characters sound. Plus, I love that Link's dash adds a platforming element (and is surely integral to some of the puzzles).

Whether or not it's the very best Zelda ever remains to be seen, but with all of the acclaim we've been hearing, it's laughable to hear clowns like Morgan Webb yawning over it, lol...
