personally I have for a long time thought that legend of zelda is one of the greatest game series of all time and i cant understand why so many people are against it. If I'm imagining things please tell me.

You're imagining things. Every gamer I've met has played at least 1 Legend of Zelda game and liked it, at least. And even so, does it matter? Opinions DO exist, and they DO differ.

I still love it, I just want some variety! And to NOT have Gannon has the big-bad. Majora's Mask was a great example and an excellent direction for the series, but they went right back to the old ways. Darker stories, different items, and different baddies. The repetitiveness is getting annoying.

I still love the series though.

My only complaint with Zelda now is that it's too easy.
The originals were such a challenge (maybe because i was younger but who knows) and Twilight Princess just felt dumbed down.

don't concern yourself with fads and trends. Theres nothing wrong with the legend of zelda in general, and its certainly not worth getting yourself tied up in a knot over one of the more profitable franchises in history. There will be many more of them.

I'm convinced all the anti halo people go home and write erotic fanfics about the holographic halo chick. Imagining such things will help deal with people such as them.

I had a great time with Zelda. I just hope to see no more of the cell-shaded Wind Waker style of animation.

It is because that you play Ocarina and the rest are down hill (much like Mario 64).
Weather or not you agree with that statement, it is the opinion that most people have.
Also it is EXTREMELY formulaic. Link doesn't talk, disastrous event happens, Zelda captured/incapacitated, Link is THE ONLY ONE WHO CAN SAVE THE WORLD!!!!111!!!eleventytwelve!1, you get new weapons/gadgets that are used to get past a certain dungeon and not before you get said item, fight the various incarnation of Ganondorf, save world.

It's probably because of the wii. Once noncasual gamers realized nintendo was not trying to get their money, they realized the wii was not worth having. So to make themselves feel better, they bash LoZ so they don't feel bad about missing it. I for one love my wii. It drove me to PC gaming.

Cause it's now on the wii, the wii is only for casual players soccer moms, therefor everything on it must be shunned and hated.
(wii owner and zelda fan btw)

It's over done. Even tLotR would get old if they made 13 movies. It's good, but they need to move on. Nintendo in general needs to think of some newer concepts.

You are lucky I detected sarcasm mid sentence. I would have to light you on fire and put it out with kerosine. But yeah, people DO get that illusion, which is quite sad. They are missing out on great Zelda games that are on the Wii.

It's only in recent years has Zelda gone sour. twlight princess promised a great deal, yet only barely delivered. Couple that with the recent cel shaded DS one and it's not looking good. Oot was the high point of the series, majoras mask was considered good, but didn't beat it's forefather and it went downhill with windwaker. Still, it's a fine series, and one that has avoided some of the worst rehashing that Nintendo is famous for.

Quick question though, where the hell is the new one?

I love Zelda. Then they made phantom hourglass and the coming ( shudders ) spirit tracks.

I just hope the zelda wii team keeps doing good
