Some new info on Cube Europe, basically:

+ The game is said to be 2 - 3 times *larger* than OOT.
+ Link will grow up as the game progresses
+ The starting town acts as an introduction where you wear normal clothes and have to round up cows on your horse within a time limit.

And some new screenshots. [URL]http://www.cube-europe.com/news.php?nid=7650[/URL].

Nintendo, a release date of tomorrow please.

Aye, perhaps. That massive landscape does look pretty sweet - but do you really want to spent 10 minutes riding from one place to the next?

Don't know in what way exactly '3 times larger" means though.

It might just mean the amount of memory the whole game takes up, in which case, 3 times as much as OoT would be pretty rubbish.

So we want a huuuuge Kokiri Forest and a huuuuge Lake are, but dead close?

Excellent. Epona would run out of carrots far too quickly otherwise.

The sword bloke in WW had a good beard.

In the videos you see a huge army of big creatures + war machines coming over a hill, looks like they've gone for a bigger 'OMG Hyrule is being attacked' type thing.


I hope it's something like that, and while the two armies are clashing Link works behind the scenes to tip the battle in their favour by powering up stuff with magical items..

In the LOTR there's a huge army of big creatures + war machines coming and it's a 'OMG Middle Earth is being attacked' type thing.


And while the two armies are clashing Frodo and gang work behind the scenes to tip the battle in their favour by un-powering the nasty man with the aid of magical items..

?

Huge is good especially if you have a fast horse to use to get around. If it's properly filled, and not just lots of useless empty space between places, then it'll be great.

There will be warp songs anyway.

What's the instrument this time?

Yeah, but you still have to explore, don't you? Exploring a fat lot of nothing would be balls, even if there's Poes to hunt and stuff.
