Also, I love how in MM everyone had personalities and lives-something TP lacked big time. Hyrule felt so empty in that game-a shame as it's gameplay and plot was sooooo great.

face humping re-deads. Nuff said.

They scared the living daylights outta me after going to the Royal Family Tomb in OoT.

They remind me of headcrabs.

Wings of Fire 10-30-2011 11:49 AM

Redeads are pretty tame compared to those fucking peahats.

Fuck.

StrangerEastwood 10-30-2011 11:50 AM

Especially in WW...I HATE THAT STUPID FUCKING CANNON!!!!...ahem.

Crashpunk 10-30-2011 11:55 AM

Y'know what I hate? The forest temple in OoT, It took me forever to figure out you have to shoot the Poes in the picture frames.

Wings of Fire 10-30-2011 11:56 AM

The ones in WW weren't that bad. It was just as baby Link in Hyrule Field, more specifically after just getting out of Deku Forest there was on slightly to the southeast that looked like a house. You get anywhere near it and it starts flying with spikes, making a weird WOOM WOOM sound and then smaller ones come out of it. By that point you don't have the boomerang so you can't actually hit it.

And the worst part?

It looks like some kind of Lovecraftian monstrosity. Seriously.

At least the rape zombies are visually recognizable.

StrangerEastwood 10-30-2011 12:04 PM

I can see that having a lovecraft esque cult, lol

Wings of Fire 10-30-2011 12:07 PM

The poorly textured body looks like eyes oh god

StrangerEastwood 10-30-2011 12:17 PM

this is almost as bad as the haunted cartridge.

enchilado 10-30-2011 01:29 PM

It has four giant tongues protruding from the top of its head. Nasty.

StrangerEastwood 10-30-2011 03:56 PM

Peahat wants your family. Digested.

I love Zelda, I have all the games except the handheld ones. I'm playing Link to the Past atm; I think it's the best Zelda game artistically because it contributed so much like: the Master Sword, Zelda's Lullaby, light and dark world gameplay, etc.

But they're all good as hell

StrangerEastwood 10-31-2011 09:52 AM

Especially as OoT is kinda a retread of aLttP, Just a damned amazing retread.

Hazel-Rah 10-31-2011 09:54 AM

Aren't all Nintendo games just retreads of previous titles? :P Amazing retreads (usually)

Crashpunk 10-31-2011 10:00 AM

They follow a similar pattern only with twists. Its not a bad thing, I actually like it.

StrangerEastwood 10-31-2011 10:02 AM

Yes, except perhaps MM's real time world and...huh. Cant think of another example right now. lol And that's why mario bores the hell outta me now. As Shigeru Miyamoto put it, "The nintendo of today would not have hired me."

Crashpunk 11-04-2011 09:43 AM

I've been playing through the original Zelda on the NES. I love this game to death although it is suprising challenging even now. If you know the right routes and secrets it is easliy the shortest Zelda game.

Crashpunk 11-17-2011 01:42 AM

Well tommorow is the launch of Skyward Sword, I'm so freaking exsited.
Anyone pre-orded it or getting the limited edtion one with the golden Wiimote plus and soundtrack?

jumper 11-17-2011 10:39 AM

Not pre-ordered. Planning on getting it for Christmas, because playing Zelda on Christmas day brings back good memories.

StrangerEastwood 11-17-2011 10:42 AM

Ah, same here...majora's Mask...

tommorow, exsited, pre-orded, edtion

HHNNNGGGH. :p

My friend got the game today and he has sent me four text messages within two hours all about how great Skyward Sword is. This is the first Zelda game that has got my interest. If I'd have a Wii, I'd get this.

Ridg3 11-17-2011 12:24 PM

Pre-ordered Skyward Sword also, the limited edition one at that. This is going to be my proper introduction into the Zelda games.

I don't think not getting passed the second dungeon in Links Awakening counts as an introduction.

Jordan 11-18-2011 08:37 AM

Played Skyward Sword for the first time today! I'm really enjoying it so far, and the sword mechanics are fun. :D Only thing that's annoying me about it at the moment is the emphasis on moving the Wii remote for certain sections, I've always hated having to keep it still in one place, it kills my arm. Other than that all is great, it's far more Zelda-y than Twilight Princess.

Crashpunk 11-18-2011 03:09 PM

My mate got it today and he is going to play it all weekend.

I won't see him.

Jordan 12-23-2011 04:27 AM

I find it so chilling that there is a split where Link actually fails in OoT.

Does this make it a little easier to understand, Chris? The only branch I can't get my head around at the moment is the one where Link fails.

Crashpunk 12-24-2011 02:12 PM

No. Not at all :tard:

Dynamithix 12-24-2011 02:20 PM

Wait what? Have they never revealed the official timeline of the games? That's strange.
