Anyone else excited for the GC version? It comes out, well at least where I live, on Tuesday. I'm stoked. The Sky City looks really cool.

[Shiruba]

Yeah i'm looking foward to the gamecube version.
I think its released 15/12/06. In UK.
Eaither way, i'm kinda curious to play this.

[OniKira]

Yea, it looks amazing. I've been watching trailers for the last few hours.

[Gravy-Train‽]

Wii version for the win.

[Gaming Goddess]

I might be getting the cube version, but I might not.
Maybe I should get a job...

GG, may I suggest prostitution? (LMAO just kiddin.)

I still prefer the old fashioned LTTP type Legend of Zeldas...

[Gaming Goddess]

GG, may I suggest prostitution? (LMAO just kiddin.)

I actually have kinda considered that.

"How the hell could I afford a PS3?!"

"...Yeah, that's true..."

Well, I picked up the GC version today, and have been playing for a little while. I just got to the part where Link is forced into the Twilight realm and becomes a wolf.

And, wow, let me say that I can already see this game winning several "Game of the Year" awards. The sheer scope of this game is astonishing. The story, I can already tell, is developing into a somewhat darker tone than previous games. I'm not that far, so I can't really tell you too much more, nor do I want to spoil anything for you.

But I would pick the GC version over Wii version anyday. I've tried the Wii version at a friends house, and while the control scheme is intuitive, the game was originally designed for the GC, and controls feel best on GC.

The only small issue I have the game is a visual one. Some of the textures seem a little rushed, and the graphics can occassionaly feel dated. The environments are enthralling and beautiful in scope and presence, but some things are not as graphically enhanced as others.

Still...I LOVE THIS GAME. I'm having difficulty balancing it and FFXII tho, lol

Wii version for the win.

i second that

[DJ ÑÎÑJÅ]

I do not like the Wii. I just like the old fashioned LoZ.

And, wow, let me say that I can already see this game winning several "Game of the Year" awards.lol

Over Gears of War?

[OniKira]

Yep. Definetely over Gears of War. I think contenders for Game of the Year this year will be Legend of Zelda:Twilight Princess, Gears of War, Final Fantasy XII, Resistance:Fall of Man, Kingdom Hearts II...and a few others I cannot think of.

Zelda has long been called the ultimate videogame franchise, considered the best by many, and rightly so. And TP really does deliver that feeling of greatness and awesomeness.
