User Rating: 8.8 | The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker (Limited Edition) GC
This is one of the best looking GC titles availible, but the tedious gameplay hinders the rating i gave it. First off, when i first found out they were making this game cel shaded i was upset. Wouldn't you after they showed you a teaser of a beutifully rendered Link (who was grown) and Gannon Dueling (shown at E3 couple years back). When i saw this cutsy looking kid i was like nooooooo. But the makers of Wind Waker proved me wrong. This game looks amazing. With that said the developer did a good job of making you feel like your playing and updated version of Ocrina of tiime. Gameplay is simular to Ocrina of Time, but i found the game to be to easy on the combat side. I dont' think i died at all fighting regular enemies. Once I found the patern to the bosses they were easy too. I truly do wish they had a harder level availible. The puzzles and platforming were on point. My major complaint of wind waker is the water. Yes the water looks good, and yes they do a good job of making you feel like your really sailing. I felt there was to much sailing going on. I found my self falling asleep sailing from one destination to the next (before i got the teleport). The sailing made the game drawed out, and tedious. Even after i recieved the ability to teleport still, it was stale and boring. If your a zelda fan you can't go wrong with this purchase. Its a fun game with a few problems, but you will definetly get your moneys worth. Just don't expect a major challenge.
