Did I mention it looks stunning, you can ride a horse and a giant boar, you can fight while riding, you can turn into a wolf, it looks scary, big enemies and a weird sinister looking gremlin thing? And hot Zelda.
Feel free to continue.
Well ... if you think about, it was only a matter of time before the effects of Hyrulian in-breeding were noticed.
That kind of styling could work in WW when everything was a bit cartoony, but with the more realistic graphics it just looks scary.
Admittedly, there are a few games which aren't so fun...the Oracle games on the GBC are two of them, but I trust Nintendo aren't going to muck this one up. It looks brilliant and I'm sure it will play well too.

I was dissapointed, expecting another Link's Awakening.
I remember riding around on some blue bear.. that's about it. Haven't played in years.

72 hours is no joke, so you probably won't be finishing this game as soon as you think
