    Although is can get confusing sometimes this is the best zelda yet without a doubt. The story is well layed out and it is so long you'll find yourself playing it for hours on end. I would highly recommend you buy this game.

    This game is in the top 3 of my best games ever played. The gameplay is amazing, along with the stroyline. It can be mentally chalenging at times but that is one of the reasons why I enjoy it so much.

    Best gane for Wii out there!!!

    There is almost no audio voice, you have to read everything being said and no movie quality graphics in cut scenes (same graphics as in the gameplay) but I am not sure that it's a bad thing, By cutting out all those memory drainers they were able to prolong the game. (And it is very long) The game is just awesome, missions are challenging, thrilling and just fun. This game deserves 10 stars.

    A worthy entry in this legendary franchise

    Posted .
    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    As the Wii's first must-have game, Twilight Princess breaks a lot of new ground for the great Zelda franchise. The story is much more involved and darker than other iterations in the series, something I've always thought that Zelda needed anyway. I'm glad to see Nintendo taking the series in a new, more mature direction story-wise (granted, it's still not on the level of some of your Final Fantasy or Metal Gear games, but it's definitely a start). Couple that with amazing visuals and fantastic, involving dungeons, and you have one of the best Zelda games ever made. For the first time in the series, I forgot that I was just going from point A to point B to get a certain item; the dungeons are that good. However, the motion control seems very tacked on. It's easy to tell that, at its heart, this is just a Gamecube game that they ported over to the Wii. On the flipside of that, though, aiming the bow and arrow is easier than ever. Another complaint is that the game feels somewhat recycled, as many of the areas feel a little too much like Ocarina of Time. I appreciate the nostalgia factor as much as anyone, but it goes just a bit too far in this game. Still, these complaints shouldn't stop you from playing this game; any fan of Zelda or just Nintendo in general should go out and get this.

    The Zelda Legacy Continues...

    Posted .
    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    For any fan of Zelda, this game is AWESOME. The formula works even better on the Wii and the fact that the controller puts you in the action/ character...what can be said? Is this game 'ground breaking'? No, of course not. Other than the controller, this game uses the same tested formula for gaming goodness. But really...how many games out there are breaking new ground? Other than phenomenal graphics (PS3)...the games are using 'tried and true' formulas (Anyone who claims that Heavenly Sword is revolutionary...go back to sleep...It is merely a prettier version of the God of War genre). If you enjoy a game that takes some hand/ eye coordination and brain power...Zelda is for you.

    One of the Best

    Posted .
    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    This game is simply one of the best games out for the Wii. Very good control layout makes use of the Wiimote's technology without making the game hard to control. Hidden moves to unlock are a first to the Zelda series and are implemented well. The only drawback to the game is that wolf form Link gets no upgrades past the few attacks unlocked in the first area of the game. Eventually there's really no reason to be in Wolf form except for puzzles that can only be completed in that form or for a speed boost. The game is simply great and is everything we were expecting from a Zelda game. I definately recommend this game to anyone who owns a Wii.

    Best wii game yet

    Posted .
    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    This is a great game to play and I recommended it to any zelda fan especially if you liked ocarina of time. I liked how most of the dungeons were brain teasers like always and I also liked how they added more enemies to fight in this version. The story line was great but I didn't like how the final boss was only mentioned at the end of the game and not the beggining. I didn't like wolf form though. It was boring and really was annoying to play with wolf form. I also didn't like how they took away lot of the weapons in previous games. Overall this has got to be one of my favorite games and i deffinetly reccomend it!

    I had high hopes for this game, and it definitely did not disappoint me. As a faithful Zelda fan there is a lot I expect to see in a Zelda game and all the key components were there. The wii controls added a whole new dimension to the game that made it a whole new experience that was absolutely amazing. While the graphics don't necessarily match up to anything you might see on the PS3 it most certainly the most beautiful Zelda game to date. As expected being able to use the wiimote to aim your bow and slash your sword is extremely fun and the game play is amazing I highly recommend this game.

    Worth finding a Wii

    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    If you are looking for a reason to buy a Wii (cause all the hype is real) then this is the game that makes you want to buy the system! Great gameplay, great graphics, and an excellent story. If you have played any other Zelda games, or even if you haven't, its a great game to buy. As a long time Zelda player, it gets tedious to keep going through the "training" that all the games include in the beginning. Other than that, a must play, must own game for the Wii. Worth the cost and hassle to find the system alone. Enjoy an unquie storyline and a inonvatie gameplay style with this Wii Classic.

    Best Zelda Yet

    Posted .
    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    Zelda was my original reason for buying the Wii. I pretty much payed $300 dollars to play this one game, and having played at all the way through, I would do it again. I have thoroughly enjoyed playing every Zelda title. Ocarina of Time blew me away on so many levels and this is what I was hoping for in this game. I was not dissapointed. The storyline is deeper than other Zelda games. The graphics are superior in several ways. The motion controls really pull you into the game. All in all, this is the best Zelda game I have played. It is also the best game for the Wii currently.

    Amazeing Game

    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    This is a great game. It takes all of the best parts of the previous Zelda games and mixes them together into one amazing game, but it doesn't stop there, Twilight Princess also adds the great new features that come with the Wii such as being able to aim your arrows by pointing at the screen. Twilight Princess provides hours of fun and challenging game play that almost anyone would enjoy. Although it is a little darker and more evil than previous Zelda games, it is still extremely fun to play and is, without a doubt, one of my favorite Wii games.

    I love this game

    I just broke down and finally got a WIi. I'm a huge XBox 360 gamer and I wanted a system that I could play with the wife. I bought a few games for "us" but I had to get Zelda for myself due to all the great reviews I've read about it. I was not at all disappointed. This game brings out the kid in me and at the same time is one of the best games on any platform I have played in a long while. The controls are flawless and the graphics, although not even comparable to the 360 or PS3, are good enough. After a while of having fun with this game, you won't even be bothered by the graphics anymore. This is a must own for Wii gamers and if you have contemplated buying a Wii, this should be one of your first purchases. You will get addicted to this game.

    Gameplay makes up for Graphics

    Posted .
    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    The gameplay is amazing. You can tell the difference between a game like this and a multi-platform game. This game was made for the wii. During gameplay, you start not to care about the graphics. This is a great game, I still play it. It is sometimes difficult to figure out what to do, but that makes it better when you figure it out. There is one part with a fairy princess in a cave that takes forever to beat. It's optional...after beating it, I don't know if it was worth it. It might have been helpful before I beat the game, though.

    Instant classic & 1 of the best games of all time

    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    This is hands down the reason to buy a Wii (that is if you can get your hands on one). This game is beautiful, the art style really mixes well with the Wii. The controls are great and very easy to get used to. The depth of this game is great there is so much to do and see and the plot is fantastic. If you are a fan of the Zelda series and have not played this game yet you are doing yourself a diservice. If you are not a fan of the series give this one a shot and it will make you a fan.

    The Saga Continues

    I bought this game before I even GOT a Wii, knowing that I would love it. Any LOZ (Legend of Zelda) fan, young or old, will love this addition to the famous series. Gameplay keeps your mind trying to figure out where to go next, and the puzzles that LOZ is known for are found throughout the game. The storyline also provides substantial entertainment, and is rich in Hyrulian history, as well as thematic elements. This is a game that is sure to please anyone familiar with the LOZ style.

    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    The Legend of Zelda series is one of the best around, and with Twilight Princess it only gets better. Now the wii is not one of the stronger systems out there, but you would never know that while playing this game. Great graphics and sound. The controls are easy to handle and make playing this game even better than it was on the game cube. A must have for any zelda or non-zelda fan.

    Greatest Zelda Yet

    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    This is by far the best Zelda yet. The story line is very well written, the game play extensive, and the graphics are amazing. There is so much to do in this game: from many hidden objectives, to mini games that are almost games in themselves, or you can just play the story line! I really enjoyed this game and rate it as one of my top 10 of all time. I had an incredible amount of fun trying to get 100 percent completed and will deffinitly play from the beginning again!

    Alright, This is not Ocarina of Time nor does it try to be. But it's new and just as good. it reminds me of the Aelda game on SNES where you went into the mirror(can't remember the ame of it) and you went into the dark realm. But it's not. It just relates to it in a way. But This game is challenging like the others which is great. It's in depth, and it keeps you hooked on it till the climatic battle between you and (the end boss). Buy it and enjoy it.

    This Game is Addictive making it Worth the Price

    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    This is an awsome game to play. Trust me when I say, it is worth the money. At first it did seem a bit hard. I got stuck a couple of times but I eventually figured those problems out. Overall this is a well rounded game. The only thing I have against it is that there is no Dialogue in the cut-scenes but that's okay because it allows the creators of this game to put more into it that almost make it seem endless. So far I have put in 90+ hours into this game. I can only say that I will be sad once I reach the end of this game.
