 Amazon lied July 6, 2008
0 out of 2 found this review helpful
When you first search for this product it says the price has been reduced to 45 but when I went to checkout the price was back up to 50. Seems like shady business practices to me. Also how about some sort of accessible customer support so that I could have informed amazon without having to badmouth them. ridiculous

I ACTUALLY BOUGHT THIS GAME FOR MY BOYFRIEND. I THINK HE LIKES IT BECAUSE WHEN I COME HOME FROM WORK HE'S PLAYING IT EVERY SINGLE DAY.. AND I HAVE TO PRY HIS FINGERS OFF OF THE CONTROLS JUST TO GET HIM TO STOP PLAYING IT.
One of the best June 30, 2008
After just finishing this game I must say it was one of the most fun I have played in a while. I have been a fan of the Zelda series since the very first one. The overall mechanics to the game are very similar to Orcarina of Time, but with much better graphics, bigger levels, and more items. The best part about the game is the outstanding level design. They are challenging, but not so much that you loose your mind. The story is OK, but how many times can you keep creating the same game? I think this game falls short compared to orcarina of time. That to me was the best Zelda game to date. But this one certainly doesn't disappoint! This will be one of the greatest Wii games ever made.

I've heard a lot about this game and how great it is from my classmates. But...I found it kinda boring. At first it was exciting. Running around with a sword, shield, cool monsters, and fun puzzles that required logic. But after the first temple, it got very repetitive. The same old monsters showed up over and over (these goblin like things), the temples were obnoxious because they took lots of running back and forth and they weren't easy. Yeah, I like a challenge. But the temples were plain stupid. For example,I spent too much time trying to figure out how to kill these fungal like plants until I realized that I had to throw bombs at them. After all this, I found the fighting system to be annoying. While swinging the wii remote is fun and all, it sometimes doesn't register with your wii and you end up making mistakes because you're not coordinating right. Also, it should be a little more realistic. Although reality would make the game too difficult, I found many things stupid. An example is your jump attack. When Link does a jump attack he jumps into the air and hangs around there for five seconds. Lastly, the music can melt your ear drums. While the music is helpful in the beginning and adds a lot to the gameplay it repeats over and over like a broken record player. Midna's giggles are very annoying and they sound more like someone's having sex than someone letting out a gasp of surprise...
Do yourself a favor. Don't buy this game and don't waste hours trying to figure out how to move a block of stone.
Satisfaction.... FINALLY! *spoilers* June 15, 2008

I've had my Wii for about a month now and I've played three games previously but none measure up to Twilight Princess. This game is addicting although it is slightly different from the two other Zelda games I've played which are Majora's Mask and Ocarina of Time. It does have a few things I don't like which are:
Now you cannot call Epona wherever you happen to be, you have to look for Whistle Grass. This wouldn't be so bad if Hyrule Field wasn't so massive compared to its size in OoT.
Now when you catch a fairy in a bottle you don't keep it until you use it, you keep it until you exit whatever temple/area you are in & it only refills eight hearts instead of all them as in OoT. Not that you even need them, at least not for the bosses because they are too f*n easy to kill which is the third thing I don't like. If you die you're not paying attention to what you are doing and getting too close too many times.
One other thing that kinda gets me annoyed is that they have locations from OoT but they're not in the same place as they were before. Like the Temple of Time. Now access to it is from the Sacred Grove which is similar to the Lost Woods in that it has Skull Kids and you must follow the music, as well as the Skull Kids lantern light to find the right path. The Skull Kid now attacks you and you fight him twice. The first time is as a wolf which makes it a bit of a challenge but it's still not too awfully difficult. The second time is a lot easier as you are back in human form and shoot him with arrows.
Lastly, Midna takes Navi's place as far as informing you about the next task you need to do but she doesn't give you hints about how to kill certain enemies. I'm one who likes to know what the enemy I'm confronted with is called which Midna doesn't tell you.
But even with all these things I like the game. Midna is a bit annoying because of her attitude but I still don't hate her. There are a lot of new enemies as well as some old ones. You still must hunt down special items such as the Fused Shadows and Mirror Shards. There are also Golden Insects which I'm not sure what you get as a reward for but I think it's a bigger wallet. But I haven't gotten them and still have managed to make significant progress in the game. I have all the Fused Shadows and am working toward the final Mirror Shard but like I said, they were easy as 123 to obtain.
I still don't understand why they changed the location in which Link supposedly grew up but oh well. I still consider the $50 I paid for this game money well spent which I can't say for Spyro.
