What a huge disapppointment. It's so ordinary, so gimmicky, so devoid of skill, so boring and so uninspired.

I'm going to write a proper review of this game but I just had to get that off my chest.

It doesn't deserve to have the word 'Nintendo' on its box. If the Gamecube *is* the beginning of the end for Nintendo hardware then crappy, substandard games like this will be just as responsible as crappy, substandard ad campaigns.

I'll agree that that is just stupid, but it is a class magazine

Personally I like Bob-omb blast but the other two are just as fun...

5/10 in Edge?

That's funking ridiculous. I think they've got probably the worst taste in games out of the most multiformat magazines.

What I was saying one was "I don't like these general things about Wind Waker. And that bit with the branch annoys me as well" but a few people (namely Whitestripes and Tiltawhirl) went into a frenzy, accusing me of claiming the game was crap because of one branch incident.

By the way, did you listen to Dredg?

I thought about voting for you last election, but for some reason didn't. So I did it this time. :)

Neither Zelda or Sunshine were were better than the N64 games, and to be perfectly honest very disappointing, but because Mario Kart: Double Dash!! is better than 64 I can't help but love it. Plus I didn't have the SNES version.
