Not really, what would you say was improved other than the two things below :-).
> Helloooo... combat system almost complete overhaul?
I don't find it all that differnt, lock on to something, move around and you can hit it :-S.
> Ocarina of Time's graphics aren't very good...
I don't know how much you know about computer graphics, but playing the remake on the GC makes you see how bad they were :). Low quality pre-rendered backgrounds everywhere :).

Why, I own a Cube, and have valid opinions like everyone else :-D.

I was disagreeing with the fact that it hadn't aged in terms of gameplay, so I don't know what you're getting at.......

Or if he was actually right. But I think he's just fishing for attention anyway.
Helloooo... combat system almost complete overhaul?
Ocarina of Time's graphics aren't very good...
Sorry Bonus you are really in the wrong forum. Go back to the X-box one.

Yeah, that would make sense if Wind Waker was the only game released since OOT. But it's not. So it doesn't.

Ha Ha Ha.
I can't help but laugh at some of these comments :-).
I hope you're not meaning ages in terms of graphics at least.
The only reson it hasn't aged in terms of gameplay is because Nintendo used the same engine for Wind Waker and didn't improve on it at all. They just turned the renderer cel-shadeed and left everything else the same.
I just started playing Ocarin of Time to experience it again in case I was wrong about it the forst time. I'm inside Jabu-Jabu's belly and it's tedious in there. Hopefully things improve soon. I'm very impressed by the size of the dungeon too as some of the rooms are bigger than Jabu-Jabu himself, decent sense of scale there :).
Anyway, if this game has the audacity to get any better I'll be impressed, but it's not even as good as I remembered it being the first time........
FF8 (im the only person
> who prefers it to 7)
Join the club man, I prefer it to VII too :D
You just cannot fault the plot, junction system, characters and world. It's so involving. Although I really adore VII, the plot for some reason didn't absorb me as much. Plus people are way too obsessed with that game, too. They've just ruined it for me.
The game was pretty damn scary (the atmosphere in the playroom was terrifying), and the combat system and level design was very well accomplished.
