Got me copy of issue 77 through the post today...yes, the one with the review of Zelda: The Wind Waker in it!
So, for those of you who don't want to find out what it got yet, close this window now!
It got...
96%
Haven't had a chance to read the review just yet, but from the glimpses I've had, the NGC lads have got plenty of criticisms for it! The main one seems to be that it's only 40+ hours long due to the fact that Ninty have dragged it out a bit with all this sailing back and forth. :/
Still, I'll let you lot see for yourself.
Oh yeah, and is it just me, or does that score for 'Behead the Undead' for TS2 seem a bit low? Mine's over double that!

Just because NGC didn't rate it as 100% perfect (96% is still very good - that's what Mario 64 got!) that doesn't make it poor.
And it's hardly a remake...

What the hell do you want? The moon on a stick? Every console will have updates of existing games plus new original games. Pikmin anyone? Animal Crossing?
The monkey ball ones are in there as well.
Fastest time on frozen highway
1:28:36 (pretty pathetic, my best is about 1min 26)
Monkey target
8970 (considering this is ten rounds, this is a phenomenal score)
Fastest time on adv floor 2
This table is really screwed up, im not sure what they have done here.
1st-50.94
2nd-51.12
3rd-54.85
4th-58.56
5th-60.04 (wtf?)
My Behead the undead score is over 170,000
