This is a must buy game !!

Postby Taliss » Fri Mar 04, 2005 2:21 am

Just arrived in the UK, what a fantastic game! Looks like I will be waving bye bye to my social life for a few weeks :-O

If you only buy one game this year, this has to be it. There are no excuses, it even runs on a Pentium 3 !

You're a fool if you can say that about any game but Zelda 2005 for GCN, coming to the USA at the end of the year. Not to diss Darwinia or anything... but nothing beats Zelda. Nothing. [edit]On second thought, Metroid is practically on par with Zelda[/edit]

But if, by "game" you were limiting to only PC games... I've no complaint. Unless Myst V is coming out this year.


And as always, that's just my opinion. Please don't flame me.

I am just trying to protect myself. No offense meant, but I don't look good in char-broiled.

Hell yeah. I think may buy a GC JUST to play it! The new trailer looks amazing! Currently playing through Zelda 3: Link to the Past.....it's great!

If Will Wright's Spore comes out this year (Probably not happening, but you never know) and is everything it is said to be, then I'd label that one the "one game to get."

As cool as Darwinia is, nothing'll beat using an infinately customizable editing system to bring a single-celled organism through evolution all the way to galactic civilization.

Darwinia would definantly be in the top 3 though. :D

Spore sounds interesting, but I am worried that it might be trying to do too much, and it will fail from bloat or complexity. It is a really interesting idea, and I am facinated to see how it works. If it does work, it will definitely be on my top ten list of games to get this year. Of course, if I buy more than two or three games in a year, that is a lot, so top ten doesn't mean that much ^_^

I'm more looking forward to Shadow of the Colloseus (the follow up to Ico). Ico was one of the loveliest, best designed games I've ever played.

Darwinia's definately up there, though. Probably 4th, behind Ico 2, Advance Wars DS and Resident Evil 4.

Zelda? I think it could be good, but the wind Waker just got rubbish towards the end.

(I don't think anyone is going to get flamed as much as me....)

I loved it.... Up until I had to find the triforce. Then I lost interest.

That's what happened to me the first time; however upon relplaying, the entire triforce section didn't take much more than an hour or two to find all the charts and then find the triforce bits.

I'll give it another go, then.... Possibly before the new Zelda is released.
