Holy monkey feces... that site seriously needs to fire some "reviewers." Saying Perfect Dark Zero is greater than Zelda... I feel physically sick.

Oh, and wooo! TP finally got enough reviews to get added to the list on Game Rankings. I see none of the other reviewers agree with Gamespot, either.

I was speaking idiomatically.

It's been out for TWO DAYS. It's a little early to be making that call, alright?

That said, I'm enjoying the dungeon design and pretty much everything about it so far, so it's not like it's not excellent.

But who cares what other people rate it?

Now, let's change the flow of this fucking discussion.

How far are you guys, and what's your favorite dungeon so far? I'm digging the Water Temple right about now. Kick ass. <3

How ya doing, buddy?

I'm totally loving this game. The dungeons are so immersive, and I've actually been completely stumped a few times. I've just started the fourth dungeon, and so far, I think the second dungeon has been the easiest. The forest temple took me a whole hour and a half to finish.

Spoiler:
The scene you see when you restore Lanaryu [I think that's its name... the spirit in Lake Hylia] is amazingly creepy. It's so dark, crazy, and... well, I love it. And it throws you for a loop story-wise, too. The whole shadow thing, and Ilia/Link with the creepy eyes... and all that. Heh.

So, who else thinks Ooccoo is the creepiest thing ever?

Jam it back in, in the dark.

I prefer button pressing to the motion controls.

Especially since Link only does stock animations instead of actually following your movements, thus making the gesture controls utterly pointless. I mean, if you do a horizontal slash to the left, he invariably does a stock animation in which he slashes it to the right... if they were gonna use stock animations anyways there's absolutely no point to having gesture controls.

And yes, I have the game. :eyebrow:

There's nowhere I can't reach.

Does anyone know if the gold disk Zelda: TP discs are temporary with this first shipment, or will they be around for a while? I am curious, as I want to get the gold disk version, but I won't be getting a Wii for a while.

If I had to guess, I'd say it's standard for the game. Normally there's a 'Collector Edition' type tag on the game if that's the case... At least, it was with the N64 games. This one doesn't have anything like that, so I'd say they're all gonna be 'gold'.

I just finished the 1st temple yesterday. It took me like an hour and a half to finish it. I love the gale boomerang. When I first got it I spent some time just going around the room I was in blowing away the leaves off the floor. This game just keeps getting better and better. I also really like Midna; having her/his (I think it's a she) laugh come out of the Wiimote was just one of the little things that is making my Wii experience the best thing ever!:biggrin:

Remember that TP promo track released a while back, with the vocals that made everyone go "OOH, UMM, ERR". Has that got anything to do with the final product?

On the third temple now. The lava in the second one was an utter BITCH. ;_;

Also, is anybody else noticing a LOT of similarities between this game and Ocarina of Time? The music, the dungeons (not the design, but you'll see eventually), and other stuff I can't remember.

Anyway, I fell in love with this game yesterday. The moment it happened was when...

DELICIOUS[/spoil:
I jousted with a moblin on a pig's back on a bridge with no safety rails, while the entrances to the bridge were blocked by bonfires. Such an utterly cool moment. <333


So yeah. LOVE this game now. =D

For god's sake, it's a she! How could you possibly mistake her figure for a male's? Let me help you out, look at this handy color-coded image.

IT'S A SPOILER!:
The ending will set everyone straight on her gender anyway, so in a few months nobody will be calling her a he.

Well, the mere fact of it happening leads to wondering why it happens, and anyone with any deductive skill whatsoever can come up with a few probable reasons. So no, perhaps it's not direct spoiling, but I'd still very much like to avoid indirect spoiling. Futhermore, any time you write a sentence that confirms something and contains the words "the ending," a spoiler alarm should be going off in your head.

It was a cynical response, dealing with the fact that they call her a "she" numerous times throughout the game; and was confirmed to be a she before the game was even released. Still, if I gave anybody a scare I apologize.

Is there not a menu? All ive seen is the item ring.

But no menu like WW? that shows you how many pecies of heart you have, or pecies of triforce.

Yeah, there is. The - button gets you the item ring and + button shows you the collection page, which shows stuff like that, allows you to save, etc.
