The Legend of Zelda Wind Waker

They did what to what?!?!?

Although I bet I was the only one that liked going around getting the pieces

I didn't mind getting the pieces either, and I found Tingle Island to be pretty funny, albeit incredibly disturbing.
I'm torn about getting this just now or waiting until Christmas (yes, I said the C word) due to my funds at the moment. It does look great although I'm a bit concerned about the amount of bloom that's in the game. The last time I seen that much bloom was in Casino.

Well they say they've "streamlined" it or something like that, although good to see others who enjoyed the Triforce hunt.

Getting the pieces wasn't so bad, it was getting the money to pay Tingle that bothered me. Probably the worst few hours of gaming I've ever had.

Nope. That was Journey.

I was going to say I'd rather replay Journey than grind for rupees again, but then I thought I might be milking how awful Journey is  

The Picto-Box now has a selfie mode, spawning this brilliant parody Twitter account.

Another one here who enjoyed the Triforce piece hunt, though that might be because one of my good friends - who I rarely see now - was directing me around the seas.

I just wanna get all the heart pieces this time. I really did have trouble finding them last time, because of the islandy-nature of the... islands...

I know you can get the chart showing where / how many there are across the ocean (surely we don't need to spoiler this) but the trouble is, by the time I get it, I can't remember where the bloody hell the ones I have got came from.

This might be the best idea ever. And in fact, the best new feature of this game.

I'd like to play this game again, if only to make it to the end credits this time round.

After spending time with the camera in GTA I'm definitely looking forward to that, every game should have a selfie mode. I set myself the target of completing all of the statues this time round so hopefully the Picto-Box will allow for a lot more photos.

It has a higher photograph capacity this time round, according to the ONM review.

Just picked it up XD

The man in the shop threw in a t shirt as well, which was nice.

Mine is being stashed in a hiding place until my birthday. Just 10 days. I tell myself this but I still have plenty to do so I'm good until then.

I'll be picking it up tomorrow and staring at it all day while at work

Have it.


First impressions: If you're familiar with the original, you'll beconstantly aware that the new version looks better, all the time. Not just for the first 30 seconds (like switching the 3D on your 3DS). Loving it.

Got yesterday only played up to forsaken forts but does look gorgeous.

Brilliant game. This time round, I will definitely complete it.

Started this tonight when I got home and I can't shake the underwhelming feeling of it, Could be I've only got as far as leaving the island but still this is my favorite Zelda game..
A link between worlds is the game I should be feeling this about (well I still do)

This is the best looking game ever. I can't believe I never really played it back in the day.

So... erm... Just saw the Wind Waker advertised in the middle of the X Factor on ITV. That's prime-time.

Raising the major question, what were you doing watching The X Factor?

....It wasn't my choice. (At times like this, I really appreciate the benefits of off-TV play!)

I managed to download mine yesterday morning and I can safely say the £50 was well worth it!
I loved WW the first time round, and this one feels so fresh and modern despite it being a decade old. Graphically, it looks amazing on the gamepad, and the animation is still spot on too.

Oh, and the Forsaken Fortress still scares the shit out of me. I think it's all the sniffing the Moblins do, and the way the music stops when they think they might have seen you. Nerve wrecking stuff!

When you bump into one in your barrell, it makes this noise and really vibrates the controller. I didn't actually get caught but I did jump about a foot. Twice.
