  • i enjoyed it more just for the fact that i did really want to rescue zelda, for once i cared for her.

  • Princess Zelda and Master Karnage, best friends for life.

  • I thought this game had really good graphics for a wii game, i did only play it for 5min at the store though... sold my wii a long time ago.

  • Just saying: Theres no fucking way in hell this would be considered "N64" graphics, not even CONKER'S BAD FUR DAY can touch these graphics

    Maybe JUST MAYBE you could pull this off on a Gamecube (MAYBE)

    But N64 has not a single amount of "shit" on this game's graphics--much less any other game...

  • I think it was a bit too much to say this is like n64 graphics... if you compare this to OOT, the visuals blow it away...

  • I think it looks awesome, and it does remind me of Majora's Mask a little.

  • Por que insultan los graficos de Skyward Sword Son hermosos

  • IMO the best Zelda so far.

    I actually cared if the characters would be allright.

    my top Zeldas would be.

    1. Skyward Sword

    2. Wind Waker

    3. Oracle Series

    4. Link to the past

    5. Majora's Mask

  • Karnage. Lol.

  • I wouldn't exactly call this a "classic" game.

  • @Forthelemon Who has said that this is?

  • @TheNuclearHammer Well, "classic game room" is in the title.

  • @Forthelemon It says "Classic Reviews. Modern Reviews." at 0:13.

  • Cosmic carnage

  • LINK why did you jump off Skyloft? Mommy said no!

  • WHAT!!?? This doesn't even look like it could run on a PS2!

  • Skyward Sword and Ocarina of Time look like they have the same graphics to you? All I can say is, when's the last time you've played or seen a N64 game?

  • When Zelda pushed Link over the edge like that when I was playing I yelled "MURDUR!!"

  • Skyward sword was a chore to me. I only played it because I'm an avid zelda fan, but the game itself was pretty boring. The lack of caves, and the easiness was annoying in my opinion. I really hope Nintendo does a better job on the next zelda.

  • i would say the thing that sucked about this game is the dull combat

  • @spacod4 Did you finish the game?!

  • The biggest problem with this review, although I respect your opinion, is that these visuals in no way resemble visuals that could be achieved on the dreamcast or the N64. The graphics are some of the best on the wii.

  • Anyone who thinks a dreamcast or N64 could generate these graphics is a fucking moron. Maybe the gamecube could do this, but there is no way in hell any other nintendo system could.

  • (cont.) actually dear to you, you've been childhood friends. There's a bit of romance actually involved in this game, Surprise! Doesn't actually happen (sadface emoticon) however this is fine.  The game's story reminds me of old school Zelda, and it does truely feel like an RPG and not a Linear dungeon-based hack and slash. In my opinion, this is currently the best Zelda on the market, including Ocarina of Time. Never had an emotion connection to that game, but I do to this one. And I'm 15

  • Here's my thoughts on the game. I wasn't visually impressed while still on Skyloft, but after reaching the surface, the art-design was brilliant. Seriously every area looked amazing. The combat is as easy as pie, however does not take away from the difficulty of the game. The items obtained are...well, not all are useful very much (Ex the whip). The story though...that's something for the books. First time in a while Zelda actually made me feel. Lot of emotion in this one, for Zelda is...

  • i think the graphics are amazing for this game they perfect them so they can be bright like wind waker or moody like twilight princess and the game is beautiful

  • These graphics wouldn't have been possible on PS2, Dreamcast or on even weaker consoles.

  • This game is so fucking amazing.

  • oh come on the graphics aren't that bad,not amazing,but not bad.

  • The graphic thing wasn't funny....

  • More Pixels ≠ Better Graphics.

  • Haters will always hate. Best graphics for a zelda game yet.

  • over hyped what a bunch of crap because of that attention whore skyrim engulfing all the hype I knew nothing about the game

  • jjaajajjajajajaja

    

  • I don't know what this guy was talking about, the music in this game is just poor. None of it compares to the soundtrack of past zelda games. The flying theme ecpecially gets old after ahwile. The graphics, while being a decent attempt at mixng the visual styles of wind waker and twighlight princess, simply don't compare to either game. The difficulty isn't too hard, at least compared to the rest of the series, the dungeons are boring, the open world of skyloft is actually really lacking. 5/10.

  • @clonetrooper250 lol this games was not hard

  • My review:

    Dungeons: Some of them, like the Sandship, were lacking in toughness. They were all enjoyable, though.

    Bosses: Every boss battle was fun. Some were also annoying, too, though. It took me two hours to defeat Koloktos taking no damage because he wouldn't do his fist-slam attack so I could damage him. Not a well-designed battle.

    Graphics: I like them. It's like a combination of Wind Waker and Twilight Princess.

    Overall rating: 9.5/10

  • @XxRyan41xX the attacks koloktos uses depends on how close you are to him...

  • @XxRyan41xX I defeated him no damage the first time and that was probably the best Zelda boss ever, Maybe you just aren't good at it

  • Comment removed

  • @MrFaronheit I beat him on my first try without taking any damage, too. It took me a bit, but it's not my fault he wouldn't attack.

  • @XxRyan41xX The lack of caves was also disappointing in my opinion. The caves were my favorite thing.

  • @XxRyan41xX I have watched every review on youtube and you just copied what they said for the most part... I'm not raging at your comment but I'm just going to give you some quick advice. For koloktos, go up very close to it with your sword (not whip) out and it will 90% of the time slam its arms in it's first phase. I thought it was a very fun boss. normally taking about 4-5 mins to complete.

  • @combatarmsman1 I didn't copy anything. This was the first review I watched of this game, so I didn't know what everyone else was saying. Maybe I just have the same opinion as them? And I know what I was doing wrong before. I was too far away from him during the battle.

  • you must have the worst tv ever

  • I'm current playing this game at this moment after my brother lend me this game from on of his friends.

  • these graphics are clearly not the best on the wii. sheesh, they weren't bad, but let's not be so blinded by our fanboydom that we can't acknowledge basic facts.

    anyway, this was a great game. it's not among my very favorites in the series (mainly because the series is so amazing) but it was still more than a worthy entry that i loved from start to finish. i like this review because it gives the game the praise it deserves without going over the top.

  • THESE GRAPHICS ARE CRAP!!

  • Nintendo 64 graphics? Come on, that's a bit harsh.

  • Why did you name your char. Karnage ? XD

  • "you think maybe you'd like to, you know, fly around the clouds together?" ^-^ it's nice that the relationship between zelda and link is getting more depth in this game

  • the graphics looks beautiful in this game, and the cell shading matches the anime style that modern zelda mimics

  • My problem is less the visuals (which actually look pretty good, given it's on the Wii), but the animations. Outside of cutscenes, it's just plain ugly, and much of the character design and, in fact, animation, seems ripped bodily from the N64 Zelda games. People move like jerky puppets, and Link is no exception to this either.

  • ive noticed people saying a lot of things like "limited capabilities"....limited how? considering nintendo isnt matching specs of other consoles and the graphics for THIS game are arguably the best (so far) on the Wii, id say the nintendo Wii is doing exactly what it is supposed to do. so how is it limited by doing what is was made to do... "but is not hi def" its not supposed to be, fucking retard.

  • @ChristBurner I don't think you understand what limitations are.

  • @IrateGamingZealot ...hence the question, "how is it limited?"....obviously there is an ideal difference of what "limitations" means. care to lend a hand and share some information? or would you rather continue making pointless statements?

  • @ChristBurner The Wii hardware is less powerful, less capable and therefore limited in comparison to the two competing consoles, hence "limitations".

    This isn't rocket science.

  • This is the best game on the Wii! This is like Mario 64 for the Nintendo 64, except it was made at the end of the console's life, not at the beginning and didn't come with the console. =(

  • This is the most funniest review ive ever seen

  • "Late Sega Dreamcast game"

    WHAT?!?!?!? These aren't graphics of the last gen!

  • @StupidWizardFilms they are if you play almost everyconsole like him and me

  • @StupidWizardFilms isn't dreamcast last, last gen?

  • @Vergilthenew Early last gen.

  • @StupidWizardFilms -- @StupidWizardFilms -- The graphics ARE last gen. It's 480p native. There's only so much you can achieve when you're lacking nearly half the pixels of the average current gen game, as was the case with the last gen. I'm pretty sure this could be ported to every console from the last gen perfectly, including the Dreamcast.

  • @GreatestCommentsEver Your comment is one of the best. You're comment is annoying

  • @StupidWizardFilms uh yes there are the wii is last gen. the original xbox is more capable than the wii.

  • @cgamyes No it isn't. It's more powerful just barely.

  • @StupidWizardFilms which is sad. It cant even do 720p and 1080i like the box could do(and that came out in 2001 the wii is from 2006) , still havent seen a racing game on wii that can graphically top forza or PGR2. looks like theyll do the same with the wii U, compete with last gen consoles the wii does.

  • @cgamyes HDMI Cables make Wii Goldeneye look like an early 360 game. Wii U is graphically ahead of Sony and Microsoft

  • @StupidWizardFilms The wii u wont be able to keep up graphically with the next xbox and playstation. def cant keep up up with pc for that matter which use 36gigs of ram 6core processores and quad sli and crossfire.

  • @cgamyes Why should I believe a person that cannot correctly spell 'games'?

  • @StupidWizardFilms whats so unbelievable about what I'm saying?

  • @cgamyes Your Words Are As Confusing As The Fifth Element

  • @cgamyes No, it's not. The Wii is actually twice as capable as the original Xbox.

  • @HashRash87 lol good one!

  • @cgamyes fuck you.

  • @HashRash87 butthurt 

  • @cgamyes with good reason

  • i now own both ocarina of time on the 3ds and skyward sword on the wii.

    yippppie

  • jajajajajajajaja

    

  • It doesn't deviate from the classic Zelda formula? The visuals look like it could have been done on the N64? Both are factually wrong. I think CGR is great, but the Wii hate is tired.

  • I personally thought this was the best Zelda game so far...Even beating Ocarina of Time, but barely. Most of the game I consider tied with it. The story, though a bit different, still delivered. The dungeons where fun. Loftwings (though can be repetitive to many people) remained fun for me just like the long journeys on horseback. The new combat system and sound is what sealed the deal for me. The songs are awesome and fighting actually makes me think a little...Not too much though.

  • I thought Ocarina of Time was amazing, BUT THIS BLEW MY MIND!!!!

  • @thevideogamenerd100 the hell??? ocarina of time is the best zelda game

  • Dreamcast?!? Really?!?

  • not only does link look EPIC! but im getting this game TOMMAROW!

  • Mark's reviews are usually pretty accurate to the way I feel about games, but I feel like what he said about the graphics and visual style in this game were way off :/

  • they aren't n64 graphics! get your eyes checked!

  • I think the game relies a little too much on the motion controls, you can never really pull off the sword techniques that you're trying to do, especially when you're in a big crowd of monsters. locking on is kind of a pain too, instead of tapping the z button and staying locked on like in previous games, you have to press and hold it down to stay locked on. It's still a good game, but I think ocarina of time is still better in my opinion.

  • @Hydroxoid I personally thought the combat controls were awesome. I rarely had problems, and when I did, I just re-calibrated the controller and it was fixed. The controls I would say I had a problem was the Loftwing. It's not too bad, but when you have to constantly rise and fall to gain speed, being precise can sometimes be a pain and DON'T EVEN GET ME STARTED ON SKYDIVING! Still overall, I thought this game BARELY beat Ocarina of Time. At least, in my opinion.

  • I can't imagne naming Link anything other than Link... o.o

  • For everyone who is replying to my comment, i said stay out of lanayru first because if you revive the thunder dragon and the talk to that goron right outside the entrance to there, a glitch happens that doesn't allow you to make any more progress.

  • Comment removed

  • I really love this game alot, but I feel that the game is missing something. NO I AM NOT TALKING ABOUT THE GRAPHICS NOR THE CONTROLS!!! I love both the graphics and the motion controls. BUT I don't really feel that sense of wonder and adventure I did on alot of the older games. Maybe I am just a spoiled idiot, but I can't help what I feel.

  • @MrAlexanderHoff i agree the whole was much more linear and the worlds wore much more smaler.

  • How exactly do these visuals look dated? Aesthetically, its much better than most games on HD consoles.

  • Fuck the Wii. Everyone knows Nintendo is teh best

  • @MrMoneyclips wii is nintendo

  • its a great game but it was a bit linear. not much side quests. also there weren't much of new items & the gust blower was super lame

  • Graphics? The Wii is not HD so make your mind up. You want a new Zelda game or HD graphics?

  • Sigh, Karnage :)

  • (reads description)

    dated visuals? the graphics are the best and most unique on Wii! Even IGN agrees. The wii has limited capabilites anyway.

  • @TheBadBuffalo My thoughts exactly. N64? Haha SS looks like a water painting come to life.

  • @TheBadBuffalo it says the wii visuals are dated

  • @TheBadBuffalo totttttttttttally agree

  • @TheBadBuffalo excuses dont change anything. The visuals are dated.

  • @evanextreme they're not excuses. they're solid, obvious reasons. Mark needs to get his eyes checked.

  • @TheBadBuffalo nope. IGN can suck a nut

  • @Schizophrenia222 are you Nintendo biased? Just look at the graphics; it looks like a beautiful water-colored painting that's alive

  • @TheBadBuffalo I think Okami has the most unique graphics on the Wii and some of the best too.

  • @PCGamingFive0 that's true okami is a great game

  • @TheBadBuffalo thts the problem. the wii shouldnt have such limited graphics

  • 2:58 assassins creed, legend of zelda style

  • skyward sword = 8.5/10

  • @8BitBlue you did a typo, it's more like 85/10

  • @8BitBlue you did a typo, it's more like 85/10

  • This isn't a review.

    He just tells you evreything in the game.

  • @Aristeo509 Oh, so you mean it's the definition of the word review?

  • Okay first of all I accidentally flagged this so my bad. To the point, I REALLY WANT TO PLAY THIS. I HAVE THE GAME AND MOTION PLUS BUT MY Wii WONT WORK! I know have to buy a new $150 Wii.

  • @hubbabubbas2 trust me, SO WORTH A NEW WII

  • microsoft is cool

  • I saw my friend playing this game - I bought it. Now, I'm saving up for a 55" LCD screen so my first experience with it will be epic!

  • Y U NO LOCK ON UR ENNEMIES?

  • quote ' THE PROBLEM IS IT LOOKS LIKE IT COULD BE ON THE N64 '

    STOP talking PISH Mark you twat

  • @TheLaughingGnomes I like the style of the graphics, and Im sure that Mark too, what I think is that Mark is trying to say that it would look a lot better on HD, hope to get it somehow someday but not now

  • this or mw3?

  • @BaseballGuitar12 This, easily. mw3 is just mw2. Just like all other cod games. :P

  • its great but I have to play it on a shitty tv so the quality looks like gamecube :(

  • i see no flaws just that when i played the game that some of the charecters look kinda odd

  • Have any of you listened to the skyward sword soundtrack disc? Its incredibly epic! :)

  • I love The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword :) . This game is such a masterpiece :)

  • zelda looks ugly here. my only complaint.

  • Got the game for Christmas, haven't played it yet cause I had to go to sleep, can't wait till tomorrow

  • Chances are I wont be picking this one up, I've never played a Zelda game, and I don't own a Motionplus. Stellar review, GOTY material, and I haven't even played.

  • @TheVodkaification The money you would spend to play it would be worth it.

  • @TheVodkaification you HAVE to play this man! Deciding not to get it is the worst decision of you life man, GET IT

  • OUR HERO KARNAGE (or Link)

  • ONLY 3 DAYS LEFT!

  • After playing Skyrim on my PC on Ultra-High settings, I just can't get into this game. Its too cartoonish and cutesy. : (

  • @rahungry Ya but all i can say is I used to play skyrim but then i took skyward sword in my face..

  • @oldskooler71 What does that mean? You like talking swords in your face?

  • @rahungry I believe he's refering to that "took an arrow to the knee" thing...

  • @Glentina428 "arrow in the knee thing? what's that??????

  • @rahungry It's a line that's said in The Elder Scrolls Skyrim game, which I never played. It gets real annoying when people constantly say that lol

  • @Glentina428 I use to think it was annoying but then I took an arrow to the knee

  • @Tristen95gi lol Hmmmmhmmmm. What is that suppose to mean anyway???

  • @Glentina428 Really are you sure??

  • @rahungry i used to be sure....but then i took an arrow to the knee

  • I haven't played Skyrim but Skyward Sword, I'm gonna say, hands down, game of the year.

  • @13quintarius stop being a liar,it won trolls/spammers choice cuz the voters were random internet trolls,not g4 viewers(the g4 viewers were voting for skyrim,but trolls started spamming about the deathmatch on random sites & thats how the weeaboo game won the"viewers choice",not goty ,by cheating,cuz realisticly it didn't stood a chance,so don't spread lies)& the goty in g4 was skyrim,by the way.

  • ign said its better than OOT...how is that possible

  • @allefakcor because fortunately not everyone have the ideology of: ­''Can't touch the classic!'' Go play it. it IS better. Like for example, what I love the most about it over oot, is the controls. They're so intuitive and awesome, but oot's are so awkward and tough to master.

  • already playing through hero mode, I'm at the ancient cistern

  • The graphics are amazing .. definetly the best looking zelda game

  • HEY GUYS while learning the song of hero, DO NOT SET FOOT IN LANAYRU until you complete Faron Woods and Eldin Volcano. If you do go to Lanayru first and talk to the Goron outside of where you learn the Thunder Dragons part, he ruins your game by not allowing you to progress. Thumbs up so everyone can know what to do.

  • @carldude99 Nintendo made a Wii channel that fixes your save file, so it doesn't matter now. =p

  • @carldude99 Incorrect, i did the lanayru song part second after Faron Woods, worked out perfectly fine.

  • @carldude99 I did Lanayru first and I beat the game. is it just you?

  • @carldude99 I compreted faron woods and then I did the lanaryu part, but I wasn't stuck

  • @carldude99 Lucky for us nintendo made downloadable channel that fixes the glitch

  • skyward bored, AMIRYTE L0L

  • Skyward Sword on the N64? You're a funny man.
