"New Zelda Trailer analysis"

I recently got an email newsletter from IGN.com that had an interesting article about the new Zelda trailer, and what they found when they looked at it up close. I can remember the main points about what it revealed but if someone can find a link to the page that would be better.

The main points are that the game could involve Time Travel, animal morphing and or animal manipulation, and a much darker atmosphere due to constant Skeletons and ghosts appearing in the new trailer.

Also, that definately looks like the moon from MM.


Probably just an easter egg though.

LOTR is what I wanted Zelda to become.

Massive armies clashing, you're in the middle.

When I watched the trailer, all I thought was "This is how a LOTR game should have been made".

And I don't care if it's a blatant rip-off.

IT'll rock.

Hmm... could be weather control, like season contol in Oracle of Seasons.

Hmmm indeed.

Why not have time travel again? They only had 2 instances of time travel and they didn't go into it in great detail, firstly OoT with the young link and the old link, and secondly with the 3 day time limit theme from Majoras Mask. What if they had a more broader version of time travel like going into the past or the future much further than say 7 years, and this time bring the same link into the past instead of being a younger self.

The same job Barney was fired from!

I don't think they'd do time traval again, to be honest.
But weather changes is always good.

Unless it's just your standard water-level-rising puzzle.

Well with the Time Travel theory there was a picture of Link swimming in the middle of a pond with a huge 2 split tree in the background, and another picture with the same tree in the background but with no water at all and he's walking by the base of the tree with an enemy nearby. Either that is time travel or it's weather control.

I think he's got work later this century.
When the pensions crisis becomes too much, they're just going to hire him to lob the elderly into France.
