  • Just beat Sailboat. Very good game.

  • Because playing them is not enough, we have to bitch about them daily, too. We had a Gameplay forum, but it got replaced by GameFAQs.

<div style='font: 12pt ; text-align: left; '>I just found out that Tetra was Princess Zelda (Well I knew long before thanks to this sort of stuff happening in previous games) and that the Lion King was the King of Hyrule. I have to now visit two Shrines, but currently I'm warping around the world and getting the rest of the extra stuff that I've missed (and from what I gather, I should probably quit soon, this is TAKING FOREVER, there is so much packed into this game).

So far my opinion. The game feels a lot more like Majora's Mask and Link to the Past than it does Ocarina of Time. It's a very well done game, and it has the addictive properties that the Gameboy Zelda games had. Technically, it beats Ocarina of Time on just about every level. However, I think Ocarina of Time had better dungeons overall, but then, I'm not finished Wind Waker yet. Wind Waker certainly is the most polished game I have ever played in my life. I don't want to say I enjoy Ocarina of Time more yet, I still haven't finished the game.

In the dungeons, I have found that the longest I've been stuck for is about a minute, maybe 2 or 3, as opposed to a few hours in Ocarina of Time (I was stuck for at least a half hour in the Shadow Temple, and I just happened to find that key hidden under the dirt by luck. The Water Temple is just one giant puzzle that needs to be solved, it seriously gave me nightmares, I haven't found anything like it the latest game yet, it's a relief and a dissapointment at the same time).

Miyamoto should work on the next Skies of Arcadia game, I think he'd have a lot of good stuff to add to it. If I didn't know better, I'd almost assume he got quite a bit of inspiration from the first game (though people have said, I think even some people here, that those who worked on Skies had inspiration from OoT).</div>
