Yeah, I loved it! Finished it in 2 hours with no guide or help, it really isn't that hard if you explore everywhere and memorise where things are. The only bit I found annoying was the swimming past the whirlpools.plastic_window said:
I found Jabu Jabu's belly and the Shadow Temple much more frustrating.
As for Wind Waker, I think that the game's graphics still look fresh and impressive today. The environmental effects in the lava pit and forest are just gorgeous and each dungeon had its own unique look and feel.
Such a shame you had to spend half the game looking at the same blue, white and red screen and not pressing any buttons for ten minutes.
Am i the only one who thinks Twilight Princess is the best?
Don't get me wrong, OoT is really, really, REALLY good, but Twilight Princess manages to perfect the formula.
For one, OoT's story was basically non-existent. The only plot element was when you traveled through time.
The dungeons in TP were also more varied, with the Goron caves not revolving enterily around fire anymore, the Water temple's system of water levels was actually based on the system involved with rising and lowering waterlevels etc.
Bosses were incredibly, and differed from the bosses with obvious weak spots, with Firus, the boss from the Goron dungeon, standing out the most.
Music(and graphics, obviously), has made a huge step up.
Characters also seemd more developed, and especially the Twilight Realm was presented as a dark and oppresive world.
Items were a bit more varied, also.
The mini-games and secret dungeons were brilliant, though somewhat to concealed, making looking for them a bit too tedious.

I was talking about the blob of water. They just could have worked on that boss a little better. I know what you mean about Bongo Bongo but it wasn't that bad.miracleofsound said:
Link to the past or Twilight Princess are my favourite.Can't decide between them.And Link's Awakening comes in as a close third.Then OoT.
My personal favorite is Majora's Mask. I'm wierd.
So... yes. The N64 one is my favorite, since Majora's Mask did come out on the 64.

i think ocarina is the best game ever made
and i will explain
for me it's the level design. each temple is completely unique, atmospheric, and have some of the best puzzle and dungeon design i have ever seen. especially the water temple
***** i went there

I'm probably going to be ostracized, but... Personally I thought Link's Awakening was the best Zelda title. Characters were interesting and acted human, and unlike most Zelda titles, seemed genuinely grateful when Link did their meaningless tasks for them, and if they had something belonging to the adventurer, they ponyed it up rather than dangle it over his head.
Granted, in the end it all turning out to be a
turns out to be a bit cliche', and kinda takes a lot of the character development and throws it out the window, except for the fact that apparently only the people of Koholint Island seem to be nice to Link, rather than the population of Hyrule whom seem to take him for granted, it's a good bit of character development for Link himself, a person who just wants to be accepted and appreciated for his bits of daring do, rather than being Zelda's bitchboy.
Granted, in the end it all turning out to be a
dream sequence
I'm currently playing through Majora's Mask for the first time and really enjoying it. I'm not sure if it's better than OoT, though. I'll have to replay it first to compare.
As for my favorite, I did love A Link to the Past, but I'm kind of an audio whore, which makes me want to side with OoT.

As someone who missed out on the N64 era of Nintendo (I was a Playstation guy), but grew up on the NES, gameboy, and SNES versions, I think Twilight is the best.
I got a Gamecube disc with OOT and MM on it, and I'm playing my way through OOT now. Having already played TP, I can't shake the feeling that I've been here before, and it was more enjoyable the first time.
That being said, LTTP is pretty freakin' sweet, too.
