E3: Skyward Sword Sucks?

Wow, um, my first impressions of The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword for the Nintendo Wii are not very encouraging...

Also, here's a link to the gameplay footage of the part of the game I'm talking about: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jzatNtinHsE

@DEATHSTEALER117 i think he was talking about flying in general

and if the bird race pissed him off,that little test to do the attack move for the loftwing would probably give him a stroke

Look it is really easy. First of there is one race in the WHOLE game. Second those boosts suck I agree but you can just bird dive to the statue and. third if you can't learn you don't have to point it at the screen there's a problem. So if it took you the ENTIRE demo to do that then really you just suck at skyward sword seperately. Me I got them both within 2 minutes... FIRST TRY! So just think like your really flying and dive for it clearly a no duh moment.

I caught that bird four times. In 7 minutes.

[DEATHSTEALER117]

lol!!! There is only 1 bird race in the whole game!

[zeldagamer1243]

there is more stuff besides bird racing,you mostly fly to go to the dungeons,dah!

@psychodrumplayer14 Cool yeah the sprint is a major plus and weapons upgrades. You are right that if they change it to much it wont be Zelda anymore my fave series is Final Fantasy and that has gone downhill since 10 do to the changes in some things. I would have to say the desert is my fave stage and the under water level they where really amazing. In the end the game is not for me but its good that Zelda fans like it.

@SUNNYRAINWIND Ah ok. For me the game is just amazing I quickly adapted to the motion controls, I like how you can actually sprint in this game and upgrade your weapons. Yeah it does look pixilated like you said but it doesn't bother me at all, the art style is just amazing. All the zelda games are the same one way or another but if they were to change it dramatically it would just suck completely. I just started getting back into the zelda franchise after getting rid of my xbox so we'll see.

@psychodrumplayer14 Well I was exited at first but I guess I got bored of the motion controls and the art style after a bit. There is allot of good things about it like the music and the world it self has a great design but everything looks so bad and pixilated and its kinda like playing the zelda we all have played already. They told us it was to be something new and fresh but it feels the same. For core Zelda gamers its a good thing but for eh ..players like me feels ..eh. loved LTP in the 90s

@SUNNYRAINWIND Why didn't you like it?

[psychodrumplayer14]

Sorry but you just sucked at the game. The bird is easy to control and the game is great!
