Five months ago, I borrowed Zelda: Skyward Sword from my fiance's best friend. I eagerly began playing it but lost interest shortly after. I'm embarrassed to admit this, as I've been a huge Zelda fan since I was a kid, but I haven't even found Link's giant bird yet. This is due to the fact that first, I'm too lazy to replace the batteries in my Wii remote, and second, I'm annoyed that I have to collect chickens and chat with the Skyloft teachers and students to figure out my next move.
Thinking back, I remembered why I had beaten Ocarina of Time and Twilight Princess with such ease. I used a strategy guide almost every step of the way. I don't think that using a guide hindered my experience at all. Without it, I probably would've been stuck in Jabu Jabu's belly for an eon. Agree or disagree?
On the subject of Zelda, what is it about Ocarina of Time that is just so epic? I always come back to it when comparing the more recent games. They pale in comparison in my opinion. Maybe it was because I was 12 years old at the time and jazzed that I could learn to play songs on an ocarina that changed day to night (that was my favorite one tune.) Or maybe it was the fact that it took 7 straight days of 24 hours gaming to complete, which to any 12 year old seems like a lifetime. It could also be, from a girls point of view, that Link finally had an excessive amount of accessories (weapons I suppose you men call them) and outfit changes (heat protecting and water protecting), that I found exciting Or that we made friends with the adorable Goron's with their fancy dancing. Does anyone out there agree with this thought on Ocarina of Time?
Thought So!

I loved Ocarina of Time! I have fond memories of snacking on pizza-flavored Pringles & playing the mini games in the bazaar :)
