Overall this game was great but it has flaws...(spoiler warning)

The graphics are not one of them. Glad i got that out of the way. They work for the game and actually help in the gameplay showing you the direction of the wind , links moving eyes etc. Fighting is as good as ever ad i especially liked the 1 on 1 with ganon at the end. Dungeons are ingeneous as ever and the wind waker is the perfect substitute to the ocarina of time. I epecially loved the concept of redicovering a long destroyed hyrule and finding the reincarnations of zelda and the sages. The storyline is the same old zelda formula yet it doesnt feel stale because of the setting. There is plenty of exploration to be done and there are plenty of side quests. i even managed to like the one stealth sequence in the game when i usually hate stealth sequences in a non stealth game.They even threw in a sort of co-op with the gba tingle thingy. think the robot in jetforce gemini with a monthly fee.
The being said here is what i dont like. Until you get the cyclone teleportation thing the sailing is just barely tolarable epecially if you need to sail to some spot in the opposite side of the world.and holy crap finding each of the individual triforce peices was just plain tedious looking for the charts was fun at first but then you have to sail all over the damn world for the actuall peices themselves. they should have screwed the charts and put the peices in the chests where you would have found the charts. but anyway sailing takes to long and the wind sometimes gets in your way. the only solution i could think of is to alow you to use the cyclone from the begining and have it able to go to any previously explored space.
that said great overall game. play something on the gb instead of using tingle for the sailing.
