Post your thoughts on Zelda games, old and new.

Beautifully made and absolutely enthralling games. I don't think I've played any long-running series yet that can match the consistent quality and grandeur of Zelda. Ingenious puzzles and dungeons, sprawling landscapes with multiple places to explore and all sorts of secrets to find.

Even though I've loved almost all Zelda games, I think the greatest one is Majora's Mask on N64. I was just so refreshing. The premise of living the three same days over and over again was ingenious, and I loved how certain things could only be done on certain days. The ability to use the masks in so many different ways was ingenious, and even though there were only 4 temples, they were brilliantly designed (and there were so many things to do in the overworld that the lack of dungeons didn't hurt it much). The entire art direction was great too, it just seemed.......darker than most Zelda games.

Good grief! I really don't see what people find in those games. I have not really found them all that appealing.

I just bought Zelda: A Link To The Past for GBA SP... Haven't even opened it yet. :/

Zelda games are not the games you buy to be like, "HOLY POOP!!! THIS GAME FRICKIN' ROCKS!!!! LINK RULES THE WORLD!!!!"

I bought it because it was a fun game to play on a boring day with nothing else to do.

I like Zelda too, although I still have to say that Breath of Fire and Final Fantasy are my real favorites. Zelda is probably around 3rd and 4th on my list of favorite series.

Some of the most boring pointless games ever made. Perhaps the only games more boring are the final fantasy games, but then again there's probably some other jap game more boring.

A Link to the Past is my favorite of the series. There's just something about Zelda that works a bit better in 2D. Not to say that I don't love the N64 Zeldas and the Wind Waker, but the SNES one is the best. Have fun!! Oh, and I can't believe all the negative Zelda posts here....the game is certainly not nonstop action- it's not meant to be. But it's far from boring.

like fire emblem and ffs better but zelda was fun although i didnt like the second one for nintendo 64 i liked ocarina of time the best

William Nunn · Jan 18, 2004

Well, if your cup of tea is more along the lines of constant action and destruction, then yeah, Zelda definitely isn't for you. But no other series I know of offers such vivid worlds to explore and such cerebral puzzles. There is just something satisfying about hearing that classic Zelda chime when you've solved a tricky dungeon puzzle.

Oh, and Zelda has the greatest boss battles..........EVER. King Dodongo in Ocarina of Time? Classic!

I loved Zelda: Ocarina of Time. That was a verycool game. I played the sequel to it, and wasnt so impressed, but then I didnt have too much of a chance to get into it. So I dont think that was a really good indication of how good it was. But yes im quite happy with my experiences of the Zelda series of games.

Tiga Ronso · Jan 18, 2004

If I had to pick my favorite, it would have to be either the Ocarina of Time or Link to the Past. I was dissappointed in the last 2 Zeldas. They were far too easy and short. I liked Wind Waker, but Majora's Mask was, in my opinion, the low point of the series. I hated having to go back and get items back everytime I had to go back in time. It only took me 5 days to beat it and that was including 2 days in which I only played about an hour. I got everything and didn't even need the strategy guide.

I would have to say that or Ocarina of Time. I must say those two have to be two of the best games ever made.

My fav Zelda game is Ocarina of Time. It is very chslllenging and not that easy. i dont lik Wind Waker because I cant stand the graphics...2 cartoony

Kestrel · Jan 22, 2004

Hey, I must say that Ocarina of Time was the best game on N64. Im really glad they got it for Gamecube too. It is one of the best free roam games i have ever played, and all the hidden stuff and puzzles and everything is awesome. It has a good storyline, and considering it was made for N64, really good graphics. It has hours of gameplay, and is always fun to play again. Windwaker seems fun, but they should have stuck to the old graphics. Besides that, it has a huge map and is just as fun as Ocarina of Time and Majoras mask.
