Let's play - Link: The Faces of Evil 01

[Foreverguga1]

I love this game so much. The music in all these lairs is so epic

[ZephirLP]

omg schlechtestes "zelda" ever -.-

[XxtheboredonexX]

I recently played this game thinking that it can't possibly be as bad as people say. I stopped playing after Link's first sentence in "help".

[anomalocarlos]

What's the difference between "Start Game" and "New Game"?

[Ralphiriusgr8]

I really expected the intro sequence to get all Youtube Poop'd.

[MeganSandwich]

THIS is why link doesn't talk......

[sonicmike1995]

Link...Link talks?...BLASPHEMY

[AIRSHIPunderFIRE]

NOOOOOOOOOOO!



[EternalEnvied]

YOUR VOICE IS AWESOME!

[TheChucknoxus]

what the fuck is this :O

[actionalways]

link, it's ruPEES

[Mp5Drummer]

DID HE FUCKING SAY RUBIES!?

[HalfBlindGamer]

@Mp5Drummer It's sad, but true!

[Ebnetboy]

is this the oldest zelda ever?

[HalfBlindGamer]

@Ebnetboy No... there were four or five before it (not exactly sure if the GameBoy version came before or after) made by Nintendo. This has pretty much nothing to do with the development of the 'real' Zelda games.

[Sonicrush007]

@Ebnetboy The Legend Of Zelda is the oldest game. Link: Faces Of Evil is nintendo's secret. They don't want anyone having it or playing it even though it was at stores.

[bulletformydemon666]

THE DUCK WALK? WHY IS THAT EVEN THERE!

[FUALLPPL]

open your magic pouch while crouching? i wanna see that

[dilps]

Good god. I never should have found this video.

[ZEROpercent9]

1:57

Cool Huh!?

not really no

[crazy1111111111]

Oh so THIS is where all those youtube poop videos come from...

[MayerEO]

Aww. Link sounds so naive :)

[Byrnified]

.....AND that is why link doesn't have voice acting

[TheEndOfAllDays]

This is reason number 1 why the CD-i games don't count.

[mysticdarkrai135]

mah boi

[romusz]

Why do people who make these things constantly have to run their mouth while playing...I think I can figure out whats going on based on the video itself without you having to tell me whats happening at the same time.

[HalfBlindGamer]

@romusz Because those people enjoy doing it that way and do not make video's to cater towards your specific needs.

I appreciate your opinion and thank you for sharing it. This is my way of doing it. If you enjoy it, great, if you don't, also great. There's plenty of other content out there to choose from.

[Dethklok602]

@romusz Because It is a "LETS PLAY" dumb shit. Lets play means it has commentary. You want it without commentary than look for a "Walkthrough"

[romusz]

@Dethklok602 theres a difference between "commenting" and "run your mouth every second throughout the entire video", dumbshit. :)

[Miektastic]

I'd rather watch this with your commentary than without it (Let's Plays > Walkthroughs, any time), but you have to make sure to not talk during cutscenes or when the in-game characters are speaking.

[HalfBlindGamer]

@Miektastic Thanks for the feedback and I'll be sure to watch out for that in the future :)

[23amendoza]

You can make me do the duck-walk! Cool, huh? Huh? If you say no, you must die!

[EccentricBriChu]

YOU CAN MAKE ME DO THE DUCK WALK :D COOL HUH!??!

[apc5224]

Haha Old man with crabs

[link117shadow]

ET game for atari is almost as good as this (now you know how much this sucks)

[Haqpyfeet]

This game is much better coded than MW3

[DaemonXE]

''Indeed, let's go find Zelda and start this game.'' You brave, brave man.

[heidern246]

Ma Boy!

[FrogJam95128]

HOLY SHIT Link scared me when you opened help!

[SytherTriton4]

I hated the game at 0:54 :/

[bluenova123]

Sad part is most youtube poops make this better.

[BigDream64]

How are you recording this???

The cd-i is sooooo freaking old!

[micahfischer]

It's pronounced RUPEES link RUPEES!

[dotal212]

o and WTF does knowing a monster having to do with getting a free sword from a old man who looks like a pedophile o3o

[superdekulink]

@dotal212 LOL xDDD

[dotal212]

@superdekulink dont buy it  e_e the frendly fire really failz e_e

[dotal212]

wait aminute arent they called rupies o3o o and his smart sword f**ing suckz i bought it from him and the frendly fire fails it KILLED ME PETZ

[Bam5000000]

Does his smart sword have 4G?

[waterfieldV]

My god this makes Zelda II the: adventure of Link look like Zelda:Twilight Princess.

[pillshere52]

this must be the must infamous game ever made

[Octopoison]

mah boi

[LegendaryxEyes]

This game's a joke.

[Luigi84289]

The best Zelda game of ALL TIME.

[drperson12]

are you aware that this game had been made into many youtube poops?

[HalfBlindGamer]

@drperson12 Hah, it was hard to get around them for a good while, they were all over the place ;) The cutscenes are poop worthy for sure though.

[Gibbagobba]

For goodness sakes, the voices are unbearable...

[Fexes420]

oh noooo

[HetaliaFullmetal101]

Link's wierdness made me LOL

[trinix777]

This game seems epic, all the youtube poops made it even better, I have to play this shitty game someday for teh lulz of it.

[njdevils17]

When I'm crouched, you can make me do the duck walk! Cool, huh?!

Best line in a video game ever.

[MrCorpseGrinder88]

I don't want to be mean, but you know your voice is annoying when you put down a let's play twice with one without commentary.

ALSO, the hell is wrong with link's bangs at 0:55?

[ethanandrewgray]

These CD games are stupid for 5 reasons

1:everyone looks gay

2:link is a retard

3:U play as ZELDA in wand of gamelon.I have nothing against Zelda but she is annoying in these games

4:the gameplay sucks

5:the lines are cheesy

[OldSkoolStudio]

@ethanandrewgray 1 and 2 makes no sense but ok

[0anonym01]

5:43

so ugly. Looks more like a screamer

[DylanTheVillyn]

I almost disliked the video because the game is a pile of shit...thank god you were playing it and not me :)

[jessdawg57]

4:18 troll face



[OKKWAMOS]

Squad-alah! We're off! This game is just wrong in every way.

[bibaloko]

am I wrong or this link looks GAY

[NiroSShadow]

This has to be the worst game ever made

The scenes are so cheesy , it makes me sick and the king is fucking retarded. I hope he WILL DIE.

PS: I know its just a game but this game just ask's to be trolled.

[MisterAleksandr]

"YOU CAN MAKE ME DO THE DUCK WALK! COOL HUH!?" "No. Not really link."

[72Yugimaster]

If only Link can defeat Ganon, EXPLAIN WAND OF GAMELON

[M4nkie]

the ropes are looking like shit.. ^^

[xXGhilliedxSamuraiXx]

How did you not die of AIDs while playing this?

[mariodude8989211]

SQUADALA

[sirnaq535]

ok if yu check your comments look SHUT UP

[childcarealert1]

I remember video game nerd

[minecraftmalazer123]

Flash? He's a repast

[theGREATkingKENA]

A smart sword that makes people talk...?

...the FBI should get some, they will have a easier time getting friendly people to tell them all they need to know, and if they aint friendly, (criminals) the sword will kill them when it hits them. =)

[salman668]

I have it downloaded but i dont know how to open it can you tell me

[HalfBlindGamer]

@salman668 If it's a disc image file (.iso, .bin, .img ect) you can burn it to disc with any burning software that supports that. CD-i players can read CD-R fine, as there is no copy protection. If you have no CD-i player, you'll need to use an emulator. I have never tried one of the CD-i emu's though, so I'm not really sure what they accept and how to set them up.

[NonstopRam]

The Magic Carpet was so disgrunted, he went to Disney.

[DrewGamerFX]

RUPEES, not RUBIES.

[HeroDjango]

@DrewGamerFX Every time they say 'Rubies' I can't help but constainly mutter: "Rupees? Ru-ru-rub-RUBIES?!"

[SilverbladeVI]

AHAHAHHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAAHHA

OH MAN THIS IS ENTERTAINING AND ALSO FUNNY.

I gotta play this Zelda since I'm a true Zelda fan.

[lameirahotmailcom]

I Gonna fucking PUKE!

[AdorableWolfTengu]

I liked the music at least.

I might look for a way to play these.

[joseakadaman]

hah! you make this funny

[flamesdemon19]

What happened to your voice?

[HalfBlindGamer]

@flamesdemon19 These are old and crappy video's, it's a shame they are the most watched too hah. I should really redo these games sometime.

[NeoFurri]

so all these youtubre poop videos from that game are cutscenes of 1 minut long....

[spinhook888]

Cracked out Link: "...and I CROUCH! COOL, huh?" 8D

HalfBlindGamer: "Not really Link" :[

[Loechai00]

Oh, the legendary Faeces of Evil.

Seriously, the ropes look like poop ( 2:55 ).

No wonder this and Wand of Gamelon are great material for YouTubePoops.

[christianaso90]

Damn, link is talking....epic fail....

[LostIndividuality]

"I'm no pro, so you'll be seeing a lot of deaths"

Dude, not even pros can play this game.

[joaovictor1994]

Did Link just say rubies? Its RUPEES!!

[thespaceboon101]

@goukeban if you think those games are bad try "big rigs: over the road racing"

[MrZangetsu468]

'Start Game' and 'New Game' ...wtf....What I also dont get is the team from Zelda II: AOL must have liked these games : /

[Radomid]

They failed so hard with this game, they couldn't even spell "Rupee's" right

[nintendovspcuniverse]

i dont think they should talk. its not a true zelda if it has talking. who agrees

[Kamurotetsu]

If I played this when I was 6, I could've become a serial killer If I survived after playing more than 3 minutes.

[NikoLiberty1000]

the cutscenes make up most of this game!

[kelleroid795]

5:43

Biggest crap I've ever caught hehe!

[TheDiego908]

link looks so gay in these games...

[oeyvindk1]

Good grief!

[reian41]

great i'll grab my stuff 

[TheGoldenWolfGirl]

GOD THIS IS SO SAD TO WATCH

[Goukeban]

Link: The Faces of Evil (1993), Zelda: The Wand of Gamelon (1993) e Zelda's Adventure (1995): three of the worst game ever produced! This is what happen whem you let Nintendo out of a zelda game. Shit blowing around, in everywhere, falling in innocent minds. Thank you, Philips!

[HalfBlindGamer]

@Goukeban Not that I'd dissagree with you that these are horrible Zelda games, but you do know that Nintendo was free to jump in and help our right? They approved the games. Philips may have had the rights to the characters but they still needed approval before they could release the games. Sure Philips did a piss poor job, but Nintendo isn't all innocent either.

[UjjijjU]

@HalfBlindGamer why would nintendo help? (they didn't) it was a contract they didn't even want to have anything to do with and pulled out of it before the 4 games were released. they were using the rights to the characters as bait to get out of the agreement, the only thing the looked into was the appearance of them, not the shitty game play or voice acting, lol.

[HalfBlindGamer]

@UjjijjU To protect the consistency in quality of THEIR property? Nintendo could have helped out a bit more and give some input to protect their property. They wouldn't HAVE to, but it would have been nice. Instead they approved it to just get rid of it and many Zelda fans were very disappointed by these games. Fans tend to buy all games in a series, regardless of format. What I don't get is why you'd approve something if it's no good. Nintendo thought the characters looked good like this?

[UjjijjU]

@HalfBlindGamer you can't hold nintendo responsible for 3rd party content. They aren't going to put money into something where there isn't going to be profit. It's all nice to think that nintendo gives a shit about your feelings as a fan.. but of course they don't. I wonder how many fans even bought the game.

[HalfBlindGamer]

@UjjijjU I agree that it's more wishful thinking and I can't blame Nintendo for nothing spending anything on it. The whole deal was just weird. There were some people who got the system, just because there were Zelda and Mario games on there funnily enough. Most were probably lured into buying the games in search for a good game on the system when already owning it though. They remain nice novelties in Nintendo's history at least.

[stevenatmeadow]

@HalfBlindGamer I watched this let's play 2 years ago, you made me laugh alot.

[ArturoDabdoub]

@HalfBlindGamer then the same should be said about every creative, company, and such who has allowed others to make movies based in their games, stories, etc.

i dont agree: if you want to make something your way, dont allow people who doesnt understand your concept to toy with it... and you wouldnt, but if you are someone who only cares about money, like an executive, producer, etc. then you will allow anyone, even if the autor of the idea doesnt agrees, and you are dumb.

[flamesdemon19]

@HalfBlindGamer Nintendo never gave the right.They had an agreement,a contract with philps but soon,Nintendo jumped out but the contract was still valid so Philips could use the nintendo trademark characters and so they instantly did.Too instantly maybe.Btw,Zelda's adventure ain't that bad...

[HalfBlindGamer]

@flamesdemon19 Part of that contract included the right for Philips to use a number of Nintendo characters. Philips also showed the project to Nintendo for approval, but apparently Nintendo only cared about the looks of the characters (how that passed their test is beyond me).

Personally I can't stand the drape presentation and constant loading times in ZA. Even though gameplay is more true to a Zelda game, I just don't enjoy playing it at all.

[flamesdemon19]

@HalfBlindGamer Actually,no.They didn't need any approval from Nintendo.If they did,these games wouldn't be out or they would be more like Nintendo would have made them.But no,they had every right that for a certain amount of time they could develop and publish any game featuring the Nintendo trademark characters the contract included.The reason Nintendo cancelled it was the limitations of the CD-i.They knew any game would fail but Asia and America are a bit far to see each other's games huh?

[HalfBlindGamer]

@flamesdemon19 It's hard to know for sure what went on exactly, as most facts were never officially revealed. From interviews however, it is to be believed that they still send Nintendo the design documents and artwork sketches for approval and it was noted that Nintendo was mostly concerned about the looks of Zelda and Link.

So it wouldn't be too hard to send it to Nintendo. Nintendo of America is also a lot closer by, then again, in business there are no borders ;)

[Excalibur5k]

@Goukeban but they were my favorite :'(

[DudemanofAwesome]

This is painful to even watch. Good God, the worst part is "Goronu". They took the name of the Gorons from THIS GAME. And the first appearance of Impa was in one of the other CD-I abortions. Fuck.

[breloom657]

you can use this sword to make people talk!

[Sasuke006]

i wonder if this game was made as a joke lol

[TheGoldenWolfGirl]

@Sasuke006

I really, REALLY hope so.

[Akuru777]

i gotta admit, 2 characters who can seriously be remade into the new zelda games is Gwonam and Morshu. lol those two would be seriously cool,

[TheWilderking77]

Two words that describe this game: EPIC FAIL

[familyguythebest]

how can you take the cutscenes seriously?? :D

or even without laughing :P

[HalfBlindGamer]

@familyguythebest It takes years of practice to not laugh!

[MustyMarkus1]

@HalfBlindGamer I feel bad for you that you had to play this game

[andrevus2]

my only problem is that i can barely hear your voice the cutscenes are so loud

[SlayerZaraki]

The voice acting... is so bad.

[Lomns]

This is just bad.

[stephane279]

......Link looks like Mido O.O (not talking about the cut scenes.)

[AplG7Rocks]

Link is annoying in this game! He's better as a silent hero than a talkative idiot. Shitty game and shitty animation. Sigh.

[EatAnOctorok]

Gohmas don't take as many hits in the N64's "Ocarina of Time"...

[baahhhFATALITY11]

MAH BOI!!!

[KINFIN123]

Oh my god, it's a very npoorly animated osama bin ladin

[SonicTheJackrabbit]

Yeah the Nintendo CD-i games are pretty horrible. The only good thing about them is they started the Youtube Poop fad along with the classic AOSTH series and that god awful Super Mario World cartoon.

[Ainaryu]

MAH BOI

[OldSkoolStudio]

YOU CAN MAKE ME DO THE DUCKWALK!

you i see why people feel they need to make ytp of

this game, but still, the cd-i games were my childhood,

and I had a golden childhood =]

[mctroll89]

'..... and i do the duck walk!'

you really disagree with the opinion that this game is fucking terrible?

[HalfBlindGamer]

@mctroll89 Best watch my review on these to get my full opinion on them, but in short. Compared to Effacer and Dark Castle for the systems, these are gems. Compared to most games on other systems, they're quite bad.

[mctroll89]

@HalfBlindGamer well, that's a very good point. but what i judge these games against is what it tries to pass itself of as, a zelda game. compared to the other zelda games, this game is god awful

[HalfBlindGamer]

@mctroll89 I can't argue with that, since that's a very true observation.

[GojiraAVGNFanSSJ4]

@HalfBlindGamer well in your opinion which is better, Faces of Evil or Wand of Gamelon, I only want to Buy one CDI Zelda Game

[HalfBlindGamer]

@GojiraAVGNFanSSJ4 I'd say the Faces of Evil feels a bit more complete and flows better, I think (but I'm not sure) that was the first game they workedo n that that the Wand of Gamelon was more rushed later on. One major drawback that Faces of Evil is that it's padded out with collecting fire-/snowballs though.

But in all honesty, they don't differ that much. I'd say, just get whichever you can find for the least amount of money ;)

[GojiraAVGNFanSSJ4]

@HalfBlindGamer thanks

[sabers714]

@HalfBlindGamer you said there were 3 zelda cd-i games whats the third one

[HalfBlindGamer]

@sabers714 Zelda's Adventure, It came out later and is a overhead game, much like the original Zelda and A Link to the Past. In it you play as Zelda (Link is only making a slight cameo in the ending in fact). The game goes for a realistic look, which doesn't look that great really and there are loading times for every screen transition, which is really irritating. There's also barely any music. All in all, it's pretty horrid!

[leauxbert]

I bet Jeffrey Rath (the guy who voiced Link in this game) is ashamed he was in this game.

[SaraQuita05]

Lol. Hilarious! Thanks for doing a Let's Play on one of the worst not-related to Zelda games! XD

[Hydroxoid]

What? Let's go find zelda? Wasn't zelda back at the castle?

[pyrosphere91]

Using a sword to make people talk? This is illegal you know.

[Skoringo]

Im gonna make this on RPG Maker when I get it to make the game somewhat better lol

[Gorlokk666]

Hey dude, im sure you get this alot, but can you at least just send me a link to the CD-I Emulator? please dude, they are so hard to find!...

PS i subbed...

[HalfBlindGamer]

@Gorlokk666 I'm sorry, I can't help you with the emulator, since I don't use it. I've never tried it, this was recorded on a actual CD-i with the original games.

Thanks for the sub though, much appreciated!

[Gorlokk666]

@HalfBlindGamer All right thanks anyway

[Gorlokk666]

@HalfBlindGamer Where did you get the CD-i?

[HalfBlindGamer]

@Gorlokk666 I got it all the way back in 1994, although nowadays they are dirt cheap over here. They are oftend sold for just 5 euros or so.

[Gorlokk666]

@HalfBlindGamer wow thats cheap! dude ill buy one off you!

[HalfBlindGamer]

@Gorlokk666 I'd love to help you out, however shipping to the US is pricy (CD-i's are pretty heavy). Also, keep in mind that these are PAL systems, so your TV needs to support it. Luckily enough most models can run on 110 volts though.

[Gorlokk666]

@HalfBlindGamer hmm all this is true.

i guess we would have to look into it a bit more.

Maybe you can give me some sort of range for the shipping price?

[HalfBlindGamer]

@Gorlokk666 It would be 31,20 or 41,30 depending on the total weight staying below or above 10kg. Those are prices in euro's. In dollars it's slightly more.

[Gorlokk666]

@HalfBlindGamer ouch

But i doubt it would end up more then $300 like on eBay

well we'll have to see. But it still a better deal for me xD

[Gorlokk666]

@HalfBlindGamer what about this game? is it any cheaper around where you live?

I finally won an auction for a cdi yesterday with all the cords and the good controller and like 10 games one of them wand of gamelon,

[HalfBlindGamer]

@Gorlokk666 Wand of Gamelon and Faces of Evil are both common games and sell for about as much as Hotel Mario here. Usually they change owners for around €15 to €20, but you often see them in stacks too since they are really common. Demand just makes them slightly higher priced and fools who actually buy them for a high price. The problem here though, is that you might end up with a non English version, as there were also Dutch, French and German versions made.

[Gorlokk666]

@HalfBlindGamer HMMMMM

yes. Well thank you. know i need to make sure i dont buy s french one or something xD. well owell. that is cheaper then here

[leauxbert]

Pause at 3:51

The most famous still of YTP.

[SuperLlama53]

duck walk... makes me hear "AFLAC"

[Blackrev0lt]

Dude ur accent is rlly anoyng.

U a german?

[Tenkagethewise]

Wow....Link is a loser in these games...this is 3 kicks to the balls from CD-i....seriously....

[Eener101]

The map screen art actually isn't that bad, as are some of the backdrops.

[communistrecords]

Who would want to capture koridie, seems like a crap hole to me.

[niah146]

omg LOL WHERE IS A GUN!?!!?! ill watch the rest of this lets play because i want reasons to make fun of legend of zelda games

[HelloFade2]

Let's play link the faces of evil........um let's not

[4ss4ssin00]

wow. This game is just made of suck. I'm glad it's in Zelda's Apocrypha.

[HalfBlindGamer]

@17solstice You're correct, they just messed that up in these games, pretty stupid error and something to piss off a lot of Zelda fans. Or maybe they didn't get the rights to use the term rupees lol.

[TKGB2006]

@HalfBlindGamer Rupees is an actually currency in a country I can't remember. I doubt it's under copyright protection.

[reviewmaster007]

lampoil, rope? BOMBS!? You wanit? its yours myfriend, as long if you have enough rubees!

[runescapemaster518]

Wow I almost fell asleep
