Lots of different opinions. Shows how much depth the franchise has.

I am going with Link to the Past. I have far too many warm memories of that game, even more so than OoT (though this was also an excellent game).

What's with all this praise A Link To The Past is getting, i would have guessed it had such a depth that it would put most games to shame or something. I thought it was a simple top down action-adventure game with a standard simple story. How's the story? How's the gameplay? I never played this also (god damn!), but i'm not gonna miss out on it if its worth it.

Wha-, wha-. wha-, WHAT? You haven't played A Link to the Past? Dude, get down to it, get down to it NOW. It's only like the greatest game ever created, second to none. Seriously, track down a copy of this game and play it. Preferably the GBA version, that one was far and away the best one.

I enjoyed Wind Waker the most, Twilight Princess the least. I dont understand how people like TP so much, it was lacking in so may areas.

It probably has the best dungeons in the entire series.

Anyways, Phantom Hourglass is the best Zelda

Majora's Mask, the story was more darker and fleshed out. The villian was new and had more of a character than just being pure evil, the use of the masks was fun and interesting, and the world was new and fun to explore.

[QUOTE="charizard1605"][QUOTE="locopatho"] 2D Zelda fo life ;)AmayaPapaya

True, dat. I think the only 3D Zelda that I have legitimately had fun with (as in had fun fun with- mostly, with 3D Zelda games, its more about being in awe of their epicness and all) is The Wind Waker. Otherwise, 2D Zeldas have always been more fun.

If your looking for just fun in your Zelda games, Ninty said that SS is going to focus less on story and dungeons, and more on "fun."

Wow. This would definitely suck, please tell me Nintendo didnt say that.

My own choice would be Link's Awakening on GameBoy, but lacking that option, I gotta go with A Link to the Past. Someone tell Nintendo to recreate that one with graphics like those found in Lara Croft and the Guardian of Light(XBLA/PSN).

Objectively, I think it comes down to a three way brawl between A Link to the Past, Ocarina of Time, and Majora's Mask.

Personally, I'd give it to Ocarina. Playing Ocarina for the first time was experiencing something truly exceptional. Very few games have made me feel that way.

The dungeons were possibly the best in the series. However, I never really enjoy the dungeons in Zelda games. TP didnt really do anything else as good as the previous games.

Edit: Also, I really enjoyed PH, much more than ST.

Really tough call between Wind Waker and OoT, but I liked Wind Wakers art style more, so that.

That good? .. No way, do not tempt me, i already spent enough getting MGS1, 2 and 3; Zelda OoT & MM, a N64 console and a few more for my PS1. I got enough to play for a couple of months, maybe i'll get it i find some cheap used one.

Yes indeed, it is that good. Every single Zelda game since A Link to the Past (except Majora's Mask) has been nothing more or less than a 3D remake/reimagining of ALttP. The sheer atmosphere and the incredible soundtrack, the scope of the game and the versatility of its gameplay... damn, there really is no better game. I whole heartedly suggest you track down a copy of the GBA version, this game needs to be played to be believed.

Yay! I see ALTTP has received more votes. That one is the best one and the one that actually defined the series. The following Zeldas are just basically 3D representations of what ALTTP introduced.
