I'm getting a 360 and the cash would be nice.

I only play Mario Kart on it with my girlfriend so it'll be ebnayed or traded against 360 console or accessories.

What's the best way to get as much as possible for it.

In retrospect, it's very easy to rip WW to pieces, because of too few dungeons ... unfinished sections ... boring map / triforce hunting ... too much sailing.

But, when you actually think about it, it rocked the socks.
Muchly.

And, for the record, there is no valid excuse in the world not to be excited about TTP. Not a single one.

Why does that seem to be the general opinion? I thought The Wind Waker was a fantastic adventure. It was a little short (I usually managed to get through it in less than a week) but it was still a lot of fun.

I hadn't played Ocarina prior to playing WW so maybe my expectations were lower than everyone else's, but I still think WW is the best game on the Cube by miles and I don't see it being topped by anything other than The Twilight Princess.

The thing with Windwaker is that it wasn't the game engine that was the problem, it was the adventure itself - it sucked. If you can tell us how using the same game engine will effect level design then we'll let that point stand! :-P

There's nothing wrong with you ignoring Twilight Princess, you've just given bad reasons is all. Just say that you never really liked OOT (if I remember right), you're much more interested in what the 360 has to offer, and you know you'll be able to pick up a cheap Gamecube in the future if the game does turn out to be any good.

That would work if it wasn't using exactly the same game engine. They've just changed the renderer to do normal lighting, not cel-shading.

And TTP is already the best game ever.

heh. But seriously, TW looks nothing like WW. The only similarity is the fighting, and even that's changed.

Well, i forgot, you can hit people from on top of a horse now too.

And the princess turns into a werewolf, but I doubt riding her bareback will be half as interesting as some half-baked porno :D.
