  • Perfect game

  • this is a great game, Fuck the Legendary frog! he betrayed nintendo, he's no zelda fan to me.

  • 6:56

    Zelda? His name is Link.

  • @KingdomheartsII "Only on Wii will you have 'Zelda' running on progressive scan..." yeah, I'm pretty sure he meant the game.

  • This game is, without a doubt, the best Zelda game ever. I love the dark tone, the graphics, the gameplay, the captivating story... and Midna! Simply put, it's a masterpiece.

  • I'm in Goron Mines in this game, and I have played it before on Gamecube but now I got a Wii so I'm playing it on Wii again. The storyline really gets to me, and it's just amazing. Honestly, hands down, beautiful game.

  • is it ok if I play the game without playing OoT and Majoras Mask?

  • @DanteAngelides of course. the story is completely different from those two. there are small connections, but not any you would really notice.

  • @1death22 thanks man.. going to play tonight then!

  • @DanteAngelides glad to help, but i'm a girl n_n

  • I swear to god, every single time a new Zelda game is reviewed, there's always the line "BEST ZELDA GAME YET!" Let's all except that Ocarina of Time will forever remain the king. It's just perfect. PERIOD.

  • Comment removed

  • i love this game its the best game i ever played i just wish that i had it :(

  • @rogue123987 looks like someone didn't play skyward sword ;)

  • @MrUBtrollin2 I haven't played that :O My sis has. SHe has it on gameboy SP. It's like on gamecube right??

  • @YoungFlutest nope, it's on the wii :P you should probably look it up

  • The postman... he's EVERYWHERE >.<

  • Just finished playing this game because for some reason I couldn't get into it when I bought it back in 2007. But now I am sad because I HAVE NOTHING INTERESTING TO PLAY

  • @Darckcloud73 The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword...that if you haven't played it already

  • The best title is ocarina of time ;)

  • 4:00 - 4:40 That's something BEN must have cooked up if you ask me ;)

  • I personally find Twilight Princess to be much better then Skyward Sword. Much more indepth storyline.

  • @LordVerdo true

  • Thumbs up if you think there should be a Zelda Game with Dark Link as the main culprit. or better yet (even though its like sonic unleashed) that during day; he is regular link and night dark link( just say it happened because someone curses him or something) and every morning regular link returns he is being chased by village people but you cant hurt them.(lets say you dont know what dark link does during the night). What do you think of my ideas. I'm thinking about sending them to the makers.

  • @madawesomeness15 go for it!!

  • This one was definitely my favorite.

  • Iv never compleated a zelda game but iv just got to the temple of time started it yestetday and i just baught a wii just for twilight princess so wats that tell u it doesent take a geek to tell u that this game is epic buy it but only if u can handle a hardcore game this aint snake 2 guys

  • 30 hours with a little bit of side questing first playthrough

  • One of the BEST games ever hands down in my opinion. If you think other that's your opinion, it's not a FACT.

  • I don't care about all the reviews or anybody else's opinion. I think this is one of the best if not the best Zelda game ever. I respect the others and have played them, but I found this to be most fun.

  • @garrvict i totally agree with you.I see complaints how this game is too dark ,but i love it!

  • I figured out why people dump on this game. Wanna know why? Because no reviewer had anything real bad to say about it or dumped on it when it first came out, and everyone loved it immediately.

    You wanna know what every hipster Zelda fan's favorite zelda game is? Majora's mask or Wind Waker. Why? People those sparked controversy and were as loved when they came out.

    I still have yet to hear real legitimate reasoning why this game sucked compared to the others.

  • @zzyzx0788 "Hipster" Zelda fan? Your just mad. Also I think it be just OOT getting loved by the average player, as you see it get compared to every game today, obvious overrating. I found this game to be fucking amazing, but to simmiliar to the play style of OOT. Also there were no colors. It was just dark landscapes as an excuse to make the atmosphere "dark" when really it wasn't that sad of a game. But that's just my opinion if you find TP to be the best than I'm fine with that.

  • This game is awesome, as is ocarina of time and skyward sword. However after 20 years, a link to the past is still king.

  • A few mates and I are starting up a YouTube channel specifically made for gaming. We have HD videos and we will be covering all the latest games of 2012 on PC, Xbox360 and PS3. We aren’t well known yet but that’s why I’m posting this comment, we want more people to know about us and spread the word about our new channel. If you’re interested in our channel please click on the username just below this comment. Please don’t hesitate to comment, rate and subscribe to our videos and channel. Thanks

  • @AboveAndBeyondGames tbh youll get more fans on ps3 or xbox36o vids this is nfb teritory (not to be mean)

  • After playing Skyward Sword, it's kinda awkward playing Twilight Princess. I actually miss the precise motion controls.

  • I'm on the fence with this and SS as my favorite

  • @Kupsacker same here (:

  • I personally prefer Twilight Princess over Skyward Sword... The sense of freedom to ride Epona across the massive Hyrule field can't be beat!!! Plus, the dark look and cinematic story Twilight Princess offers is top notch and EPIC!!!

  • @juanmreynoso yea that is one thing i found too, in most all zeldas the world seems so connected, and twilight princess the world was connected and vast but flying across it on epona was awesome. I find having to warp back into the sky and fly on that damn bird to be a bit annoying. It just seems like the bird isn't fast at all and you can only get to each area one way, by going to the dive points and picking the spot you want to land in. they should have had the epona down on the surface

  • @juanmreynoso Plus the music was more memorable IMHO. But I still think Ocarina beats them all in dungeon design and boss design.

  • jajaj viejos tiempo con ese juego era muy bueno

  • best zelda game...its like ocarina, but on steroids

  • @heroinhero69 @LordVerdo

    Yeah, I'm laughing at both of you right now. TP in no way beats OoT, and SS has the most emotional and in-depth storyline in franchise history.

  • ah man this game looks really fun 

  • skyward sword is great, i liked seeing the guy from dodongo cavern in OOT you see him in the forest area hes like a tourist.

  • OMG I JUST FOUND OUT I followed your guide :x and when the hell does 4:05 - 4:47 happen?

  • @PinkBitchism After you collect all the tears in lanyuru province and restore the light spirit.

  • Beat tis last boss was 2 easy flashed my rod sounds round i know

  • I love this game

  • I feel like this was nothing like any of IGN's earlier reviews...tediously long.

  • @SuperUnderOver Well this video was made 4 years ago.

  • I miss this game...

  • This game is better then skyward sword, it has better reply value and doesn't have you fighting the same boss 3 times.

  • ive just started skyward sword loving it so far just entered the forest temple. never played twilight princess, am considering it. how come the wii version is so cheap the the gamecube version is very wanted?? r they same game??

  • @misterneckbreaker88 They're the same game except the Wii version's been flipped to make Link right handed. The motion controls in TP are extremely basic compared to SS as well. Still an amazing game though.

  • @RapDog62 oh right, im enjoying skyward sword so far , if i can finish it i will try twilight princess too. thanks for reply

  • Still divided on which is better, skyward sword or this. Skyward sword hands down has the best motion control (probably of all time to date) but the graphics are just so, I dunno if I like em or not, there definitely different but they seem like they've been done before in other nintendo games and they are super cartoony. TP has a really cool story and unique graphics, it's like it has a bit more grit and "weight of the world feeling", that desperation was even in oot, it's gone from SS though

  • @TheNLHunting

    The graphics of Skyward Sword are much better then Twilight Princess.

    I think you're getting ''Art style'' and ''Graphics'' mixed up.

    You look at the textures in TP, they really look bad compared to the SS's graphics,

    and yes, SS has a different art style witch was cartoony, but I liked it.

    I liked TP's dark and gritty world, but the art style in SS was also amazing, like a painting coming to life, fact is, I love both art styles ;)

  • @lbplayerify08 graphics, art style, you know what I meant. But it's still a dilemma for me and many others to really choose, was this style of graphics better or not, . One things for sure, skyward sword has the best cinematics by far and the controls are bar none.

  • @TheNLHunting

    You don't have to pick one and decide if it's better or not. ;)

    There both great, and they will both stay in many gamers hearts :D

  • the gamecube version is better link is left handed and hyrule is the right way around. If anyone has noticed the gamecube hyrule map is nearly the same as ocarina of time

  • you damn right!

  • how are you dissapointed with no voice acting!! bitch please,,,,,

  • Almost the BEST video game ever. Fallout 3 & NV are better though. But hands down best nintendo game out there.

  • @chasetheawesome57 fuck fallout lol its not that good imo

  • This is my favorite Zelda game cause of Colin. I'm a dork. I have a crush on a video game charater. XD

  • @mckennabrooksfan He's like 4 years old...

  • TP was meant to have full HD graphics. the only reason why SwS has better graphics. but when WiiU will come out, im sure nintendo will continue making zeldas in the TP style of graphics, more realistic and dark

  • but skyward sward made the easy enimys WAY TO FUCKING HARD especialy since the mootion plus fucks up all the time turrets and spiders are fucking OBNOXIOS

  • skyward sword has better animation this game has great graphics skyward sword is preaty dark too "i will probise not to murder you ill just beat you senceless" i think those are the words

  • Ocarina of Time and Skyward Sword are better.

  • @smith100ist True, but this game is still awesome

  • @Dedalwedal True it is awesome.

  • What the hell!? No voice acting, The Legend of Zelda ocarina of time was one of the greatest games ever, yeah no voice acting and suddenly your complaining no voice acting?

  • got Skyward sword 3 days ago soo should i get this one

  • @InterracialPlayerz definatly :)

  • @222sensfan222 me! But skyward sword and tw I think are equal

  • who else just came from the skyward sword review and wanted to see how twilight princess compared

  • @222Sensfan222 there IS no comparison. TP is better. ;p

  • @222Sensfan222 HAHAHA I DID :D honestly

  • @222Sensfan222 me, i have just finished skyward sword yesterday starting hero mode tonight. its worth a try its pretty cheap too.

  • Link is not meant to talk, he is a blank slate to which the player reflects themselves upon.

    dont give a voice to link, he is the voice of all gamers that play his adventures.

    =)

  • miss this game

  • Thumbs up if u r watching this video in 2012 and u still don't have a girlfriend since the day of the upload

  • What! Did he just complain about the music?!?!?

  • Twilight Princess is dark and evil style of a game with detailed graphics. Skyward Sword is bright and colourful style of a game with an art style of graphics.

  • @scowry Twilight Princess isn't dark and evil at all.....

  • @gorrillaz182 the cinematic clip it showed? the dark and creepy twilight world. The evil tentacle badies?

  • @scowry It wasn't scary too me. Yea it was creepy, but I wouldn't call it dark all because of that one scene. Twilight world is just boring as fuck, not scary.

  • @gorrillaz182 but compare all that to Skyward Sword and it's a totally different style of game.

  • @gorrillaz182 Yeah I kinda agree with you that the twilight wasn't scary, but I fell like I'm the only one who enjoyed fooling around in wolf form in the twilight.

  • @bouchandre I liked being in wolf form, I liked it alot I just don't like it in the Twilight world. Just to me it seems a little dull. I don't hate it, I think it's cool. I'd rather be in the regular world in the wolf form.

  • @gorrillaz182 I guess you're right. it was so much fun scaring that shit out of the people in castle town.

  • @bouchandre Haha that was one of my favorite parts XD, I liked using it for combat too.

  • @scowry Hey man I'll tell you what, you want some creepy stuff? Well do the silent realms in skyward sword, and you'll understand what CREEPY means!!

  • To me. This is the best Zelda game. Skyward Sword is epic and all, but this one just felt more awesome.

  • Why do people always bash on Twilight Princess? People keep telling me it is the worst Zelda and then others tell me it is the best. Which one is true?

  • I feel like the beginning title after beating skyward sword is Lanyaru Desert

  • Do you have to use the motion controls?

  • if this had been released a year earlier on the gamecube, it would have been remembered as a much better game

  • @koopa64z

    Could you please tell why

  • @janfeyen9 think the wii let the game down, delayed its release so it was no longer a GC game. by the time it was released i never got the urge or excitement from exploring the world, hyrule seemed empty. while games like oblivion blew everyones minds with how huge and sand box they were. think nintendo realised there was no way they could compete with that so they focused more on dungeons and puzzles for skyward

  • @koopa64z

    aaah ok I can see your thinking. though I highly believe the Wii version of Twilight Princess, is better then the Gamecube version

  • um dafuq? skyward sword has WAY better graphics than TP. that game is freaking beautiful. its a shame that nintendo's hardware blows, but skyward sword absolutely does the best with what its given.

  • Dick THIS IS FOR GAMECUBE!!!!! nuub

  • they should at least put these on 3DS including the best wind waker ^_^

  • twilight princess > skyward sword.. more engrossing

  • Comment removed

  • screw skyward sword. It lacks so much atmosphere and hardly feels like a zelda game. It seems like Sypro the Dragon. The Zelda 3D Games Go in this order:

    1) Ocarina Of Time/Twilight Princess

    2) Majoras Mask

    3) Wind Waker

    4) Skyward Sword

  • @Mirrorthrone68 i respect your opinion but how is skyward sword anything short of amazing?

  • @BuddyBros I just found it incredibly boring and it lacks tons of depth compared to twilight princess. It isn't a bad game though, just didn't live up to my expectations.

  • @Mirrorthrone68 YES! THAT WAS EXACTLY HOW I FELT! I'm glad someone else said it

  • I really love ALL Zelda games equally because every single one is excellent. I haven't been disappointed by a Zelda game in my whole life.

    The only time I felt unsure about a Zelda game was with Wind Waker, I hated Nintendo because they "ruined" my favorite series with "childish" graphics (I was like 12 and I was sooo stupid), later after renting it for a day I got to Forsaken Fortress and realized how I needed to buy that game no matter what. Now it's the most timeless Zelda I've played IMO.

  • I love twilight princess and its my favorite Zelda title to this day. I got Skyward sword recently and it just doesn't seem to wow me like TP did. Don't get me wrong, SS is a good game, and I haven't beaten it yet so it could get better, but I feel like link had a lot more to live for in TP. I cared about the characters more. He had a lot more connections. In SS it seems like your only real connection is Zelda and maybe fi, but it almost seems to me like fi has no personality. Midna was the best

  • Can't wait to play this on the Wii U.

  • I rather play the GameCube version, don't know why, when I play the wii version it looks like everything is out of place

  • After playing ss I kinda do miss the tp adventure like there was so much more than in ss I mean revisiting places 3 times is like :s annoying in my opinion tp is better than ss

  • Did it really look this shitty? wow.

  • @Theowest considering it was released in 2006 the graphics are decent, not too fancy but still nice for a console.

  • I put my copy in my wii today for the first time in 4 years. Memories

  • when can you ride epona again because i am in the kakiro villge finding the tears when can you ride epona again is it after you safe kakiro villge

  • this is the only zelda game rated T

  • You're disappointed in no voice acting? Hasn't it always been text since the beginning, please..

  • how are you dissapointed with no voice acting yet every game has been using text in the past? just to let u know link is MEANT to be a silent protaganist

  • SS was a little dissapointing. I wish it had more dungeons and i wish it had "secret" bosses. I don't understand why is "secret" bosses aren't in Zelda games. It seems perfect like in Mario RPG, Legend of the Seven Stars.

  • @WhiteEmerald1991 well if you get bored get all 60 imp poes souls!

  • @WhiteEmerald1991 Well, the sections in between dungeons were pretty lengthy, like the Song of the Hero quest. And there were many puzzle solving elements during these parts. I think these made up for the "lack" of dungeons. I pretty much enjoyed the whole game.

  • I think they throw around best zelda ever made too much i mean it's one of the best but oot and a link to the past were probably better. Yeah shure its bigger and stuff but it has a fair number of flaws unlike oot.

  • It didn't ever strike me how dark this game was until I fell in the lava for the first time in the second dungeon. I was kind of expected a warp noise like in OoT or something else along the lines but instead he actually died. I was just shocked and honestly a little freaked out lol.

  • in my opinion the legend of zelda twilight princess has been the best game of the sagas of zelda

  • I still prefer this over Skyward Sword. It's probably just nostalgia, but I want another dark Zelda game :(

  • Whoah, must have this <33

    It looks so cool and amazing D:

  • Trust me, once you play Skyward Sword you'll shove those words about it's graphics back in your whore mouth. It is the best Zelda game ever.

  • aww i miss matt :(

  • 4:33

  • this is second only to ocarina of time

  • Where the fuck is the Link shield in from this game on Skyward Sword? Why do we have a gauge now? Why can't we slice while running? Why couldn't they make dark graphics on Skyward? One thing that really pisses me off is the Fi is so fucking annoying I miss Midna, Midna is way cooler I miss being able to turn into a wolf, I miss the snow temple, the hot chick that like Yetti and snow, I miss real bosses WTF is that gay guy in Skyward Sword that just flips his hair around fuck that guy

  • @jx454es 1.it was a hyrulian shield and hyrule wasn't even discovered yet in this game. 2. why do you need to slice while running.3. skyward sword wasn't a dark game the story wasn't dark. 4. link in TP had the same lainth in hair as SS link so what you talking about. IF YOU FUCKING LOVE TP SOMUCH THAN GO PLAY IT AND LEAVE SS ALONE PLEASE.

  • Comment removed

  • shit man this was the third zelda game i played, the first being wind waker (still my favorite) and the second being OoT for the gamecube (wooh pre-order disk!!!) but man do i regret selling this off to gamestop :(

  • Twilight Princess: better graphics, you can run while slashing, and good story-line, more puzzles.

    Skyward Sword: more in depth story-line, down graded a bit on graphics, more of a plot, and showing Zelda and Links childhood friendship, more guidance in all a better game.

  • 1. Link's Awakening

    2. Twilight Princess

    3. Ocarina of Time

  • 1. Ocarina of Time (my FLIPPING CHILDHOOD xD) for N64 lls

    2. Majora's Mask N64

    3. Wind Waker Gamecube

    4. Twilight Princess Gamecube and Skyward Sword Wii

    5. Link to the Past Super N64

    I'm no a gamer, non at all. but I'm the biggest Legend of Zelda Fan.

  • i used to play twighlight princess ........ butyhenitookaskywardswordtothe­wii!!

  • it will always hold a dear place in my heart

  • Everyone who is bashing on skyward swords graphics just need to realize that graphics don't make the game. I the game is fun and addicting then I don't think it's gonna matter. Like, god damn people still play pong with its negative 9 bit shit graphics

  • @bloodrush499 And I think Skyward Sword has by far the best art style of visuals in the series.

  • @bloodrush499 no one is complaining about the graphics dipshit camel balls

  • @bloodrush499 I don't get how the bash the graphics in skyward sword anyway, they. are. AMAZING!!!

  • @bloodrush499 am i the only one who sees that SS graphics are like obviously better than TP

  • @bloodrush499 the game is not as good as previous ones, thats why it sucks, the graphics being mildly better than wind waker dont help much

  • @bloodrush499 Yeah you are right!

  • @bloodrush499 i dont even think pong is 9 bit its like 1 bit

  • @bloodrush499 yo add on to that ppl still play Final Fantasy 7 ps1 shitty graphics but the game is one of the best final fantasy games ever made u can't judge a game on it's graphics lol

  • 1. Ocarina of Time

    2. Twilight Princess

    3. A Link to the Past

    4. The Wind Waker

    5. Majora's Mask

    6. Skyward Sword

    7. The Legend of Zelda

    8. The Adventure of Link

  • man why does everyone hate this game i love it because it is the first zelda game i completed without a walkthrough

  • My Top 5 Zelda Games

    ------------------------------­--------------

    1)Ocarina of Time (Always, nothing more to say other than perfect)

    2)Twighlight Princess (I loved the dark tone and realistic graphics)

    3)Skyward Sword (Better than I had expected; Loved the relationship between Link and Zelda)

    4)Tie between Majoras Mask and Wind Waker (Love em' both equally, WW is more enjoyable IMO)

    5)A Link To The Past ( A classic in it of its own)

  • @SFLOVER94 just a question. Have you played trough skyward sword? Because in my opinion I would put it number 1, or at least in front of twilight princess

  • @bouchandre Yes I have played it. I don't know why you are telling me this though because my opinion is different than your opinion. It's great to have one. But growing up with OOT as child is almost indescribable, especially being able to play it when you grow older and appreciate it more. So it is perfect to me. Twilight Princess, as the reviewer states, is the "spiritual successor" to OOT, which I could agree with because it did remind me of it, the dark story and realisticness just appealed

  • @bouchandre to me more than SS did. I did enjoy SS though, needless to say it will probably grow on me. Thank you for the question though.

  • this is one of my favorite games of all time

  • this was the best zelda game....until skyward sword came out lol

  • @shr3dder417 Ocarina of Time is the best

  • @shr3dder417 I still find Twilight Princess better.

  • @shr3dder417 this was never the best zelda game

  • @shr3dder417 Have you played ocarina of time!?

  • Well, this and majora's mask is either one of my fav zelda's. SS so far well i havn't completed it yet, so far the story is gaining momentem.

  • this is my second fav zelda behind OOT. i have not played SS YET

  • Comment removed

  • Super Mario 64: Everyone loves it

    Super Mario Sunshine: Everyone complains about it

    Super Mario Galaxy: Everyone loves it

    Ocarina of Time: Everyone loves it

    Wind Waker: Everyone complains about it

    Twilight Princess: Everyone loves it

    Notice anything similar?

  • @scampynoXP "Wind Waker: Everyone complains about it" lolwut?

  • @sonicbje Personally I loved it, and many others do too. But the majority of people deemed it as childish and not as good as other installments in the series.
