[QUOTE="sacredBed"]look, Ocarina of time is not just considered the best game ever because it changed games and was super good for its time. If you truly go back and play the game even now, from start to finish, you'll realize that it not only holds up perfectly, but it still does everything perfect, and everything feels perfect too. If you play Oot right now it does not matter how perfect it was back then, it still is flawless and there's nothing that melds an action adventure better even today.
I've played and beaten the best of the best, including okami god of war, shadow of the colossus, and wind waker and majora mask and twilight princess and loved them all. But I still go back to Oot and know that it had the most memorable places, locations, world, bosses, and characters, and most of all: music. Seriously, I'm not a fanboy or anything, just go listen to the soundtrack while doing homework or something and you can remember and picture yourself playing through that creepy shadow temple and isolated water temple.
The only thing it obviously can't do is technical graphics nowadays, but the artistic design, like the particles flowing around kokiri forest, blood and death filled shadow temple, and epic scale of Ganon's castle over lava plus the lightning thundering final battle more than makes up for that.
It's the best game ever not just because it was revolutionary, but because as a whole, it still does everything better than games that try to replicate the talent of 1998 nintendo in some form. It has lots of value because you can keep going back to the wonderful hyrule world and feel alive and do tons of stuff until you've exhausted everything you want. It's a friking fun game too.
