This has all the fun a Zelda game should offer! A lenghtly and gripping story, a sweet variation of weapons, and more...
Now, the story has sort of changed, with you starting as Link in his PJs, and his little sister waking him up to celebrate his birthday. he eventually gets the ordinary duds and his trusty sword,(No, not the Master Sword!)and later after that, evil strikes, and a big massive bird kidnaps Link's sister! Will he rescue her? That's the question which starts you off on your big journey!
As most Zelda games have a magical instrument in them, this game has it's own, called "The Wind Waker". It can control the wind and many other things you encounter. I have completed the game twice, and there are LOTS of musical manipulated obstacles and objects.
The map in this game is HUUGE! It's that big that you need a trusty boat to travel from island to island. Of course you need to play through a level or two to get anywhere near sailing, but once that's over, you're free to travel the world in any order, looking for treasure, people to talk to, or to just simply enjoy the view! But beware, there are many hazards which you can come across while venturing the great seas...
Now, to conclude my talk, let me say that this is definetly in my top 3 Zelda games, and is most likely in yours if you give it a try. Oh, and if you absolutely SUCK at sneaking missions, then you might need help from someone who is good at them, as there is an early level in the game which has spoiled many peoples' fun!
