This game takes the Legend of Zelda formula and breaths some new life into it.The graphics my be a bit dated they are still to notch.Especially for the Wii and Gamecube.What I loved the most about the graphics is the graphical presentation in the Twilight realm.It`s what you would expect from a place that is called the *Twilight* realm.It has a dark,gloomy,and sometimes frightening presentation and atmosphere.The gameplay also rocks.For the Wii version you just swing the remote around to preform a basic slash or thrust it forward to preform a stab.Or you could shift the nunchuck extension from side to side to preform a spin attack.Although the controls sometimes don`t respond right away(especially for the spin attack)it should not bother you that much.But the controls for the weapons are excellent.They respond quite quickly.And they are just plain fun to use.The dungeons are pretty straight forward and the puzzles are not that hard but you will usually find one or two that will stump you for a while.The dungeon bosses are not that hard either which is a shame but that does not mean that they won`t give you any bit of a challenge.The sound is quite good,especially the sound of the twilight creatures voices.It makes them appear a bit more threatening and frightening.The music is also quite enjoyable.Although some of the music is borrowed from the previous Zelda games it`s still fun to listen to,but after a while it does get a bit boring.But what I love about the sound is the sound of the of the weapons as you use them.Weather it the chain rattling of the chain from the ball and chain or the arrow as you release it.This game is very long yet enjoyable every step of the way,while other games lose their appeal after a few hours.You won`t unlock anything new if you play the game over again but then again why would you play a game that`s over 40+ hours long over again.For a game that`s $60 you would be getting you moneys worth and maybe even more.Overall this game deserves the title of The Legend of Zelda in its name,it`s a very long game that will keep you busy for a long time,the graphics are top notch,the gameplay is fun and fresh on both console versions of the game,and the sound is good although it borrows quite a bit from previous Legend of Zelda games.So,now the question is do I recommend it.Of course I recommend it.I recommend it to anybody thats a fan of the Zelda series,who would like a long adventure game,or to anybody who owns a Wii.
