Brand new trailer, opening sequence and a few short videos have hit the net. Just made every day until the 19th that much harder to endure.

The impressions for the final game are coming in and "the gist of it is, it kicks *** in every way possible. The controls don't hinder the gameplay at all, and as expected, the game itself is an impossible masterpiece of gaming."

Yeah, it just HAD TO COME OUT IN THE MIDDLE OF NANOWRIMO!

I won't be able to really sit down and enjoy it until december.

Must finish FF12 before Wii comes out.

The graphics remind me of Final Fantasy... and that's a good thing.

yeessssssssssssssssssssssssss yes yes yes yes yes yes yes yes yes yes yes

Wow, the opening cutscene looks like Shadow of the Colossus but boringer and with worse graphics.

In the trailer, the only thing that really looked interesting was a couple of the boss fights, and the raft bit. The raft bit looks amazing.

I really like how the game freezes every time you hit something with a sword.

Funny Vinny should say that -- it reminded me of Shadow of the Colossus as well. I don't get where Vinny sees boring and uglier though.

I consider myself a Zelda fan. I continue to remain skeptical about the final product of this game.

You know you'll be playing it launch day.

I'm not getting a wii until after christmas.

God I need this game.

I was going to say the same thing, but wasn't because it'd turn the thread into a flame war because no one would admit all the 5 sided shapes and repeating textures and empty surfaces.

It looked like they're really borrowing from the final fantasy franchise for their graphics which IS NOT a bad thing.

However, the game looks all platformy and mario-ish. I still think the wolf parts with the stupid shrew on your back are banjo kazooie-esque, and will suck. The magic looked like the only interesting factor of the wolf.

I'm being harsh, and I'm certain I'll like the game. I'm just pointing out some of the things that send off a warning light to me. Furthermore, I want my more-adult-like LotR-esq link game that they showed me a year and a half ago.

Also: Doesn't it look like link is about to talk? If link talks, I'll kill nintendo.

I think I'll put my faith in the people who've played the game and say it rocks rather than from what jedikirby says who's never played it. Sorry kirb.

So I was bored and ripped the music from the trailer for your listening pleasure or whatever. I had to record from Stereo Mix... couldn't import it into Audacity or GoldWave directly. I suppose I could've used mplayer to get it into WAV format but too late for that now. Plus I'm lazy.

Making the game colorful only adds to the contrast when you encounter an evil area.

Shigeru Miyamoto has said that he never wants Link to talk. He also said that, should it ever be necessary, he will be providing the voice acting. That also means it's never going to happen because Nintendo would never let Shiggy destroy their second-most-valuable character ever.

The reason Link looks like he's talking is because Nintendo wanted to make his face much more expressive than it was in previous games. His mouth opens when he grunts and such.

If you watch the shorter videos you see that there is no voice acting.

Good. Whew.

And I'm not telling you to take my word for it. I'm just expressing my worries for the game.

Then by rights, the Shadow of the Colossus intro looks like the Ocarina of Time one. >.>;; Since this opening is a rather blatant homage to the OoT one.

Anyone else prefer Mario? (Link is awesome, though. I'm eager to play this game.)

Super Mario Galaxy looks like Mario's gone off the deep end.

It looks like fun though... but I think I will end up <3ing Zelda more.
