For the past few weeks, I've been considering buying Wind Waker. I have the money (Or will shortly) and I'm still debating with myself weather to get it or not.

It seems like it would play like the N64 games (two of my favorites in the series), and from what I've herd, also has a good story line, and generaly good enough for me to buy.

But I've also herd some bad things about it, like how you sail for half the damn game, how it's boring, and how the cel-shaded graphics ruin the experince all together.

So I ask you: Is it good or what? Should I shell out the $50 now or what till it gets marked down to $20? Or should I avoid it all together?

Get it. It's good. Not perfect, but there are no games that are perfect. It's fun, you'll see.

Wind Waker is a fun game. Short but still good.



I'm finally starting the OoT Master Quest.

It sucks and I'm kicking myself for buying it.

I don't care what any of you fags say. It sucks.

Then again Nerd you'll probably love it because you're a fucking idiot.

I hated it. I rented it for a week, and while I loved the cell-shading in any game, wind waker got boring fast. All the dungeons are tedious, the sailing is annoying, and the only fun boss fight was the one in the dragon's roost. I did not like this game at all.

Since when did Rongi become Mr badass?

It's short and easy but if you like Zelda gameplay it's enjoyable.

Its an awesome game but you can proably beat it in a rental so save your cash and just rent it.

Awesome game, some parts are dull, but there are secrets.

I think there is a Secret Zora level somewhere, just can't find it.

Yes, I know the Bird people evolved out of the Zora, but on the main island, you can talk to one of them old sailors and he tells you about a fish shadow who you feed food to is not really a fish, but a fish man who takes you underwater and blah blah blah.

I think that's just a sailor's story. There's a shitload of myth around the fishguys, I think that's just one of the tall tales.

I may, however, be wrong.

It was OK. I didn't beat it, and I haven't had the interest to beat it since last April.

Just rent it.

Thanks for the info guys. I would rent it, but my local Blockbuster has shit for GC games and I wouldn't be surprised if they didn't have it. If they don't, then I'll probably wait untill it get's marked down. $50 is a lot of money that could go towards other things...

I myself would pay it. However, do as you please. If you want a good title to while away the hours with ASIDE from WW, then might I suggest Soul Calibur 2 unless you already have it. The GC version is the best, and you can still play a game with Link in it.

that game is worth the 50 dollars.
and the fish men are only the fish people that will fill out your sea chart.

some guy was talking about fish men in this game that can take you to a secret area. not true. they are only the fish that will fill out your chart about an island and tell you crap about it.

Why would the GC version of SC2 be the best? :/ Because it has a horribly unbalanced character that no other version has, and worse graphics than the X-Box?

I personally think that Link is a better character than Spawn or Heiachi(sp?). I have played all three versions, and I like the GC version the best. However, that is my own perosnal opinion. You people can think what you like.

Link can hurl anyone out of the ring at a whim.
