"Yes you heard me right......on todays episode of Masterchef, with me, Lloyd Grossman we have a battle of the giants. A show of the greatest talents this world has for us......the art of making a game! So Shigeru, now we know what your going to be making, why not tell us you ingredients for the recipe."

"Well to make Zelda we need some very, very special ingredients you see. First off we will need a nice big fillet of Buffalo."

"Did you just say Buffalo Shigeru?"

"Why yes I did actually!"

"Please explain this unusual decision if you may"

"Well Lloyd, to make a game really, really special, we all know it has to be original. Whats more original than a buffalo? Nothing, thats what."

*Shigeru laughs at his own joke....meanwhile the audience is silent*

"......anyway. We have the originality now or at least we will once I have chopped this up a bit"

*Shigsy goes over to the chopping board and chops the Buffalo into neat, small peices*

"There we go. Now, I am going to need to cover this in bread crumbs........."

*Lloyd Grossman cuts Shigeru off in mid sentence*

"... cover it in bread crumbs? Really? Strange decision."

"Why would that be then Lloyd?"

"Well you have such a wonderful peice of meat and you go and go all common on us and put breadcrumbs on it. Is there a reason for this?"

"Do you think I would do something as crazy as this without thinking about it Lloyd?"

*More than likely after I saw that Zelda GC demo at Spaceworld Lloyd Grossman thinks to himself*

"Well let me explain. The breadcumb is merely there for decoration, we all love decoration don't we? The breadcrumbs are the graphics. Without good graphics games fail, with them they attract people who are a bit less bothered about the actual game and care more about the graphics."

"Your genius, never ceases to amaze me Shigeru." Lloyd Grossman replies in a shocked manner.

*Shigeru walks over to the oven and sets the timer*

"click,click,click.......click,click,click.........."

...................

".........click,click,click"

"There we go, perfect!" exclaims Shigeru.

"Shigeru?.....don't you think that is a bit long for what your cooking?" Lloyd enquires.

"Of course not. Have you ever heard of a good game being made in a short amount of time?......of course not! This is why I have set ittoo cook for so long. A game needs time, it needs time to be perfected......to be made the way it was intended. I don't cut corners Lloyd, you have got to remember that."

*No wonder all the best games get delayed Lloyd thinks to himself.........everything has to be just right*

*Shigeru walks over to the sink and washes his hands*

"Now that out of the way we move onto the sauce!"

"Yes, yes, marvelous idea, what dish is complete without a sauce I say" Lloyd says while eyeing the clock.

"Now to make this sauce I am going to need very few ingredients....in fact, all I need is water and tomatoe." Shigeru explains.

"Once again I am clueless I am afraid Shigeru, looks like you will have to amazeme once again."

"Well the sauce is the playability, easy to pick up, but not too complicated. Thats how it is best done and this is the reason I have picked only water and tomatoe to make my sauce. Water for simplicity and a dash of tomatoe for something just a little special."

*2 hours later*

"DING!"

"Ah that will be the buffalo" Shigeru says to Lloyd.

*Shigeru opens up the oven and places the steaming Buffalo onto a large plate. He then procedes to drizzle his "special" sauce over the bread crumb coated meat*

"Wonderful!" says Shigeru.

"Well, there you have it folks. Zelda-The legend of the bread crumb covered Buffalo in tomatoe and water sauce!"

Thanks for reading.

I wouldn't be that surprsied if that happened - after all, first he's been doing "a bit of" gardening, then changing the new Zelda to a strange game - proof that being an expert games designer does reach its limits. Whatever that means.

Thanks for reading Sam. Nice to see a comment on the actual post, just to show you had really read it :) GAD isn't something I would ever expect.....its not something I want. I would enjoy it, but I don't want it. Anyways, don't let that put you off GAD judges :-D
