Legend of Zelda: Twilight Prince Reviews

Twilight overtakes Hyrule, and the legend of Zelda begins anew.
It started on the NES, refined on the SNES, Nearly perfected on the N64, now the perfection is complete on the Gamecube and Wii. But, as the Twilight overtakes Hyrule, and the legend of Zelda begins anew, will Link be able to save Hyrule again? Or will all light give out to twilight forever more? Of coarse I'm talking about The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess, what do you expect to be my first Wii game review. The controles in a Legend of Zelda game is very important, and the Wii controls does not dissapoint. While I can go back to the gamecube controles, I perfer the Wii controls more.The combat remain similer pervious Zelda games. But on the Wii you get motion sensing.You still have Z-targeting, you still have tons of items to colect, you still have great to awesome boss fight, but this time to attack you A) Swing your arms in the air like a lunatic, or B) lightly swing them left and right. Doing link's signiture spin attack is as simple as shaking the Nunchuk left and right. and aiming with the Wiimote takes alittle getting used to (to tell you the truth, I'm still trying to get used to them). The story is alot more epic then past Zeldas. And I like this story better. It starts with this Link as a Farmboy. The day he is to go to Hyrule to deliver a sword, Llia, the love intrest, takes the hores away. When you go to get it back, Monsters ambush you and kidnap you friends. Then you find out about the Twilight, and that your destined to save the World from it. The intresting thing is that your transformed into a wolf. Giving link the ability to dig and highting his sense, but takes away the items. The Sound disign is also top notch. From great orcestral scores. To the four notes Sheep know, as the sound of succes. The Textures in the Graphics do get alittle iffy. But Great lighting, Especaly in the Twilight relm, A beutiful view as far as the eye can see (real. Hyrule field is imince). To summerize this all into 1 sentence is hard, but doable, The legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess: the bad) bad textures, the good)Everything eles

Must Have!!
The Legend of Zelda Twilight Princess is the much anticiapated Zelda title that has been delayed numerous times. Does it live up to the hype, is it better than OOT. Well the answer is yes to all of those questions but if you want to know why then read on. Gameplay-Perfect. The Zelda formula has been used again and it does not disapoint in this area. But now there are wolf bits of the game and while they do not live up to the adventures of the boy in the green tunic they are certainly fun and worthwhile. There is a slight drag when you have the vessel of light but nowhere near as bad as the Triforce hunt in WW. The story has also recieved some polish. There are fantastic characters such as Midna who you do not know much about and most of the time you will be questioning her true intentions. Also Zant is an awsome character who is really zany but his boss battle was dissapointing. And the usual characters such as Zelda and Gannondorf. One thing that may slightly dissapoint is the side quests which hold no relation to the mainstoryline. Graphics-Beutiful! The character design is truly something to behold as well as the sprawling Hyrule field and Gerudo deasert, and as always Lake Hylia does not dissapoint. One thing that did upset me is the art style which has changed from a dark dangerous look to a slightly lighter tone. One thing that they did change for the better was the Twilight Realm which is a gorgeous mix of strong, dark colours.
Sound- This area is quite strange because to it sounds excellent and the Twilight music is really unique. BUT they have taken tunes from OOT and put them into some daft howling areas,which are no wher near as good as Ocarina sections. This is one area that may disspoint.
Value-This is Zelda they are not going to give you a eight hour adventure and say it is worth 40 quid coughGearscough. Instead it took me forty hours to compleate not including sidequests. Definatly worth your cash. Tilt-I love Zelda games so it is biased but I hated WW so I am up for hating some of the games. But to realese a game of this high quality amoungst eight hour adventures with high production values is like a breth of fresh air. This is a classic and if you have a Wii or a GameCube the it would be a crime not to get it. Also the Wii controls further the immersion and I love'em especially aiming which is really accurate.
