Selling off my rare Official Nintendo Famitsu Legend Of Zelda The Windwaker Zelda box, containing a book, cd and two figures, all straight from Japan earlier in the year.Not available at all in the UK and I never saw any in the importers like Another World, Kingcat, etc when it came out.

99p no reserve on 7 day listing. Remember to remove the space after the "?" to make the URL work, say here if you have problems making it work.

I think your argument about lack of places is a bit crap, top be honest. :)

I agree, I would of liked larger islands, but OOT did feel at times like areas strung together by almost 'corridor' like appendages. Not exaclty real. WW had a far more open and realistic (if you can call it that) feel.

Plus, the bit in Hyrule Castle, when all the monsters come to life, is better than anything in OOT, perhaps barr Ganons rising.

Both are wonderful games.

And the sailing is great. Perhaps thats because I sail myself.

Hmmm.

I thought the sailing was excellent at first; really magical and stuff. Then, just when you started to get a little bored of it, you learned the teleport song which made everything a breeze.

Stunning.

I agree with what everyones saying about OOT, the fact that it was mostly land and there were proper villages and towns etc like other Zelda games made it really great and although WW didn't seem as good in comparison but then again it never was going to. I mean being the follow up to the greatest game you've ever likely to play it's no easy feat.

Still WW should have had a huge land based part, like under the water where Hyrule was, that would have ruled.

I did actually like the sailing bit, I just found the dungeongs rather uninspiring and repetitive.

Sailing was fun at first .. then too tiresome.
You should have been able to get a motor - much more exciting.

When you saw outside Hyrule castle for the 1st time it just ruled. The view was stunning - they should have set the game just down there.
Maybe next time, huh?

And the black and white bit in Hyrule was jaw-dropping. You just KNEW that everything was gonna come back to life - scared me shiteless.
Although when they did it was way too easy.

Ganondorf was way two easy- so i thought that it was going to take me onto some really difficult battle in the Overworld with like all the sages helping you and stuff- but all i got was some crappy cut-scene at the end. The rest of the game made up for it though. PS Is it worth starting the second quest - is anything diferent?

sailing was great at first, then fun, ok, average and then just damn right anoying! i hated the fact that if you sailed against the wind you went at like 2 miles an hour.

the matter about the islands, though there were some big ones like windfall and outset there were many more little ones with nothing really on there. Plus having to sail to each one was a pain in the a$$.
OOT gave you a feeling you were in a proper land, Majora's mask did the same, but i found WW searching each island one by one to be more a task to complete rather than something fun to do.

the only good zelda'ish' part was underwater hyrule castle when the pirate lass got told she was zelda. Apart from that i felt the game lacked the 'magic' the other zelda games had.

And that.

I haven't played them yet!
