Out of the Zelda games all ready out Ocarina is the best so far in my opinion. This was one of the first Zelda game I played on. From then on Legend Of Zelda became my favourite gaming series.

to be honest, I've never liked Zelda ever since Ocarina of Time. And Ocarina of time was the only Zelda game I've ever played.

So you've judged the whole series based on one game?

hmmm, you're missing out.

:O

You really, really, *really* need to play:

- Link to the Past
- Link's Awakening (DX if purdy colours are your thing)


I wouldn't bother with the NES games (the first one is amazing, well, to me anyway. I love that game) but don't even bother with Zelda II. That was the biggest piece of crap I've ever played. Then again, I never played the Zelda game on the Phillip's CDI or whatever it was called... that was supposed to be dreadful. Much like the cartoon. :)

"Yeeeeeess Princess", or whatever it was.

I guess you could say I'm judging all the Zelda games just from that one. I've heard that Wind Waker is good, but I also heard (back in the day) that OOT was good.

When I got my NES, a few years back, my mate also gave me all of his games. About 15-20ish, and included was the gold edition of Zelda 2. I wander if there's any point me playing it. The NES is currently in my brothers room and he never got it to work on his telly, but it works fine on mine, if you give it enoough time.

Really, don't touch Zelda II. I have the Gold editions of both (yay me!), and II is so dreadful. I tried giving it another go on the Zelda: Collector's Disk, but then I realised why I never played it through again after longing for the end to come.

Majora's Mask was indeed great. The Fierce Deity's mask makes the final fight so incredibly easy, although I imagine it would be horribly hard without it. But after collecting every one of those masks I think I deserve some sort of reward!

Anyway, if you're having trouble finding all the masks just use gamefaqs or something. It's damned hard to try and remember where they all could be when you haven't played the game for so long.

Oh and the Stone Temple is awesome.

I remember one of the masks was so incredibly hard to get, I think it was the sun mask or something. You had to help the relationship between the girl and some dude that were staying in the Inn in East Clock Town. Then you had to run through a gauntlet-style puzzle before the mask fell into a hole in the floor... and you'd have to do it *all* over again.

It still is good. No, more than good, far more than good.

That certainly was the most long winded one, but also the most fun. That final bit was pretty hard though, especially seeing as the block puzzles weren't immediately obvious and one wrong move sees you relegated back to the beginning.

It was also very sad at the end when you reuinte them, only to rewind time and see them apart again :'{
