Do you think The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask is the worst game in the series

All these people ignored the save system?

thats one of the reasons it dosent get a full score for me, majoras mask was probably the most interesting zelda, so many great ideas, and some bad ones, its clearly not the worse in the series, but not the best either

[QUOTE="Shinobishyguy"]I didn't mind the sailing. It's the fact that islands were so tiny that pissed me off. A tiny little speck of land in a huge sector of water. Sky-

[QUOTE="Sollet"]Worst Zelda game ever is easiy Zelda 2 on the nes, hands down.Loco_Live

That was the best Zelda game. What, you hate challenge in your games?

Whats with all these zelda threads... isn't there a nintendo or retro forum for these is zelda ___ the best, is zelda ___ the worst threads. Ever since SMG2 got scored these topics have been rampant. Go to the appropriate forum. This has nothing to do with sys wars.

----- But yeah Majoras mask was pretty bad....from what I remember playing of it 11+ years ago.

That would be Zelda II. The true black sheep of the series.

so why couldn't most of the islands be bigger like dragon roost or windfall. Way to much wasted space on that seachart Shinobishyguy

Oh, well that was to piss you off. =P

Majora's Mask took the Zelda series in a good direction. I felt that Twilight Princess was the worst in the series by far. It's not a bad game per se, but it just isn't as good as the other Zelda games.

The mods are allowing the thread. If you don't like it, why are you posting in it? Honestly,I don't see why you can't take your bitterness at SMG2's score somewhere else. Everyone in this thread was having a perfectly good conversation. No need to rain on everyone else's parade.

Can't tell if this is a serious comment or not.

why do people rag on the save system? It works perfectly fine. Slowing down time gives you PLENTY enough to work with beating the temples, and the system is not frustrating at all. smashed_pinata

Nope.. windwaker was the worst for me.

its the best in my opinion which means more to me then yours.
the worst i will say is tp.

I think it is the deepest in the series, and provides a great adventure for those who felt like Ocarina was far too shallow to satisfy them. Overall, Ocarina is the crowd-pleaser, but Majora's Mask is the next step.

You can teleport into towns and save you game if I recall.

There are worse games in the Zelda series, and fortunately, they are now forgotten with the exception of Internet jokes.

No way. Not even close. Zelda II Links awakening, and Phantom Hourglass, and Im not sure which one it was but there was oracle of ages and oracle of seasons.. one was good and one totally sucked, so those 2 game and the oracle game that sucked are tied for worst imo

Nah, I thought Majora's Mask was pretty good. I'd say Zelda II was the worst in the series, and even then, I didn't think the game was all that bad.

Among the 3D console games, I would have to say yeah which really isn't fair seeing as most of the Zelda games are spectacular but Majora's Mask is just a good game when compared to the likes of Ocarina and Wind Waker. I'd rank TP slightly ahead of MM, but both don't hold a candle to the other two.

What's wrong with Phantom Hourglass? I think it's an amazing handheld Zelda. It makes great use of touch screen IMO and they took all the tedium out of the sailing (it was really tedious in WW). Combat is a bit too easy, but overall, I really like it.

It's barely, and I mean barely, a smidgen, below OoT at the top of the franchise.

Only ALTTP is close to it, underneath that.

MM is an absolute masterpiece, no doube about it.

Where is the option for "As good as Ocarina"? I loved it.

Its the best in the series.............. Twlight Princess was easily the worst.
Majoras mask was original and had great ideas and an excellent atmosphere. Twlight Princess felt like a basic copy of what happened in ALTTP and OOT.

Edit: I am only including the console games from the SNES onward when i make this statement.

It was better than the other too actually now that I think about it more, but the dungeon design, the puzzles and well everything could have been much better imo. I enjoyed playing through the japanese version because I basically was translating everything and it added a whole other dimension to the puzzles and the whole game but then I completed it in english and thought it was just way too dry and boring, like it felt like just going through the motions. And while every zelda is really similar in core design thats the first time that I ever felt that

The worst ones are easily the NES games.Willy105

ones?! As in.. plural? :o ....

That still leaves the problem of you having a fourth of your progress through the entire game erased if you die.

**** no. It a awesome Zelda game and blows TP miles away. As for being better than OoT, not really sure. I guess they are just about equal.

I'll admit that the puzzles and dungeon design felt a bit vanilla at times but IMO, extremely cool moments provided by the touch screen sort of made up for that.

Where's my option for: "Ocarina is completely overrated and is the worst in the series and Majora's Mask is the best."
