I HATE WIND WAKER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! [Posted on 2008-07-26] Worst zelda game ever (apart from the CDI games)! Its sssssooooo kiddie and childish,and it embarrases me to play it because it makes me feel like im 5! The new graphics are very boring and bland. If you want a proper Zelda game, GET TWILIGHT PRINCESS!!!!! That game is so much better than **** like this!
WOW!!!!:) [Posted on 2008-07-27] wind waker is 1 of the BEST games I have ever played!!!!!!! the grapix,music,action! i for one am a Zelda fan this was actually my first Zelda game i ever played, and i still play it today it never gets old!! the only word to describe this game is...WOW!!!!
Play the game first before jumping to conclusions [Posted on 2008-08-03] Wind Waker. Yeah, ok so it's cel-shaded. So what? The game makes it work
for itself and besides, it has tons upon tons of things to find and do. You could literally spend hours just sailing around finding secrets. The music-centred gameplay is also a fantastic idea! All in all, it's very fun and a very unique game.
For the Zelda purists reading this review, let me just say that I was once a purist, just like you (well, still am). I pissed and moaned about the cartoony look as well, but I just sat down and played it; 6 hours later I was deep into the game, loving everything about it. Think of this game as a lollipop laced with heroin, or some other equally addictive substance. That is, it may be brightly colored and childish on the outside, but take one lick and you're hooked for life!
First off, the seafaring system is a wonderful idea; however, when it usually takes 10-20 mins to get from point A to point B in the Great Sea, and you have to do that very often (before you get the warp tunes), it can suck the fun right out of the game. There are a lot of really annoying areas that also tend to suck the fun out of it. Aside from that, the gameplay is very smooth, the graphics and sound are phenomenal, and there a lot of very innovative ideas implemented in Wind Waker.
Worth the wait [Posted on 2008-08-07] We spent a long time looking for a new copy of this older game and finally found it on Amazon. It has been great fun and worth our efforts to find it. It was shipped quickly and arrived in perfect condition.
Best game on Gamecube [Posted on 2008-09-25] This is my favorite game on the Gamecube. I still go back and play it from time to time. Highly reccomended.
