2: How can you destroy Hyrule? It's just not right.
3: Ganondorf, in stone, at the bottom of the sea... not dead enough for me I'm afraid.
4: What happened to Ganon?
5: Do you think the next Zelda will be a similar spin off game to Majora's Mask? who knows what adventures Tetra and Link will get up to.
6: Don't you think Tetra should stick with Zelda's dress... far nicer.
7: Where the hell was the excellent party style finale with the credits rolling past scenes of jubilation, imagine a street party in Windfall with maggie dancing with her mobolin to be, Lenzo snapping shots of the photograph fanatic, the gossipers gossiping in the corner, that german guy repeating Sploosh and Kaboom, The legendary fish man saying "kay", Frado and Laruto looking over the town from a distance, the pirates acting like prats, Tingle and co. acting like prats... etc... etc... that is how a zelda game should end. Music was nice mind.
8: Would you let an 8 year old leave home for an unknown adventure out to see...
9: Will we ever see hyrule again?
I tell you it just isn't right.
Finished it, it rocks, needs that undersea Hyrule valley/castle/castles on the mountain sides/towns in the bottom of the valley/villages on the sides, in the gorges, filled with waterfalls, lakes, rivers...leading into a big river, leading into the sea, where you can sail again.........
WW rules. Next one with my reccomendations, shall kick proverbial butt.
you all say that having a massive party at the end would have made it too much like OOt or MM but the game had so much in common with them any way. When yo ufought the the phantom gannons i nthe rooms leaidng up to the boss, they were identicle to ganon in OOT!
The two most annoying things about the game were definately the windwaker which made link look so camp and links pathetic little dance after he defeated a boss! That did my head in! Hes the hero of wind and tiem and he looks like a 4 year old todler dancing along to the seasame street ABC song!

I found some areas poorer than Ocarina of Time... it felt more incomplete but it had a far superior battle system, the sea parts in the end I loved and I hope they do it again although a little cleverer and it was far better scripted than before. I disagree I found it overall a better game than Ocarina of Time, not in terms of an epic adventure but in terms of pure adrenaline filled fun.

Everything moved... everything felt alive to me... becautiful stylaised work with the black and white scenes.

Name one third party game that comes close to Metroid, Zelda or Sunshine?

Nah she looks too much like a boy... but if you're into that sorta thing.
How would it BE The Legend of Zelda without it?!
What you seem to be forgetting is that each new Zelda adventure doesn't neccesarily come directly-after the other...
So, while "Zelda GC 2" may come after `The Wind WakerŽ in terms of its release; chronologically, this game could even be set hundreds of years before `Ocarina of TimeŽ, when Hyrule still existed.
Who says the `Legend of the Hero of TimeŽ won't be the last???
But it HAS to have toon-rendered visuals!
And the many Animal Crossing-style side-quests and extra stuff to do.
I don't think we saw all the celebrations on Windfall Island, Outset and the others plainly because very-few people other than those actually "envolved" in the adventure actually knew about the trouble that was emerging.
Very-few of them even had the abillity to set-out to sea and leave their isolated, little island... How were they to know about Ganondorf in anything other than "The Legend"??
I'm confident it will be just-as-great-as The Wind Waker, if not even better. I just hope they can somehow make this next one last a little longer in the main-adventure, even if it remains a bit on the easy side.
They cut too-many corners in the first one, leaving out too many dungeons and challenges in far-too-many places.
