What Is So Great About Zelda ?

[Angel Heart]

I loved the cel-shaded look of windwaker. I thought the game was brilliant as well, my third favourite game, behind ff9 and tomb raider II.

you are proably to young to enjoy an outdated game like zelda. and if you can play older games without thinking about only the graphics then you proably just don't like the games.

I didn't like OOT or Windwaker.

My favorite is Zelda 2. It is by far the best IMO. Followed by zelda 3, and zelda 1 started it all.

as for what the big deal is about them. Zelda 1 was the first game to use the save your game function, it was the largest scaled game of its time, had the first musical composer design the music, and without that game the NES would have never out sold the Sega Master system.

Zelda 2 was the first game to have both the over world veiw and side scrolling. It was Huge is scale, and it's graphics for the time were top notch. This game also gives link magic and the ability to level up his sword, Magic, and heart. and you fight your shadow the hardest fight in Zelda history.

Zelda 3 was a rebirth of zelda 1. No complants about this game except it wasn't long enough.

If you still don't understaind whats the big deal about zelda thats fine, just know that it is a big deal even if you don't understand it. Just like whats the big deal about E=mc2 you man not understaind it but that doesn't mean its not a big deal.

Damn I talk to much.

Good call on the save game function. I was going to say that. Passwords reek...

The Zelda games are just fun to play. That's why they're so great!Some people like it, some people don't, it's the same for every game.

As a side-note, the Water Temple was one of the easiest in my opinion! You had to think a lot though ;_; I remember sitting down for about 20 minutes trying to figure out one stupid puzzle. Still, I preferred doing that than having to do the Shadow Temple. *shudders*

So, what did everybody find in Zelda that I didnt

Never played OoT, but there must be a FREAKIN' REASON why the named it "Game of the Century" in Gamespot, and was the first videogame EVER to recieve a PERFECT 10 in all magazines. But hey, I haven't played it, and if the made the "Underworld 2", the proofs that the world may be wrong.
Yeah.
Of course.
