Looking good!


But it could have looked so much better.


:(

[GameMaster]

Nice screens. I like how all the feeling and emotions are expressed through Link's eyes. Can't wait to see some live motion.

[GameKinG]

Well, I havent heard one review of the import very that has stated it looks anything short of amazing.

[Happydude]

stupid cell shading...it screwed the game up so much...but looks nice anyway

How could it have possibly screwed up the game? Miyamoto said this is what was suposed to be, it's not supposed to have all these realistic effects, Zelda is fantasy.

Anyway, those pics are awesome, I will be pre ordering this game soon.

[GameKinG]

If anything, OOT screwed up what people think Zelda is suppose to be.

[Happydude]

i meant it screwed it up visually...eesh...i liked the way it looks in OoT...

[GameKinG]

Thats what I meant. OOT's graphics are the out-of-place ones. Im sure Shiggy would have done cell shadind had he actually thought of it, and had N64 been capable of it. Alas he ruined it for those who dont like it the way it should be.

You believe everything Miyamoto says? So if he told you that you were a monkey, would you act like one?

Are you kidding? MIYAM0T0 IS TEH G0D!!!11

...

Actually, if you look at Zelda, with magic, fairies, etc. Realistic graphics as in like Metroid Prime wouldn't suit it well. But that's just me, I am glad that he went with cel-shading, it fits the atmosphere and style perfectly.

[BlueFire]

I want to play this game so bad. I've been in a Zelda-ish mood lately..

[DeathsHand]

I can see that Zelda is a fantasy-ish thing, and I don't have a problem with cel-shading, but if someone prefers realistic graphics over the cel-shading, then chances are the fact that it's set in a "fantasy world" isn't gonna change anything...

There are plenty of fantasy-ish things with realistic graphics...

mmyep...

[Xantar]

Actually, the more I look at the game, the more I tend to forget that it's cel-shaded. Couldn't really tell you why, but when I look at some of the environments, I'm just thinking, "That's a detailed looking wall!"

I used to care about the way the game looks, but not now. I can't even imagine how it would all look with the Spaceworld 2000 type graphics any more.

[Jason1]

I think it looks amazing. At first I was all pissed like most people, but once they showed more, I found that this truly is Zelda. The way it was ment to be.

[DarkDemonic726]

The game looks great I cant wait till March!

[Mushlafa]

my friend pre-oredered it.. i made him.. but chances are he wont like it.. i really really wanna play this game.. and if i end up not havin the money to get it.. il buy it off my friend :p

[surfin4lifer]

All I can say is that it would have been alot more of an appealing game if it had life like graphics. there are plenty of fantasy games that turn out beyond good and that is just one thing that could help out.

[yes_yes i am]

this looks like an n64 game

[Bad Religion]

all this talk about hating the graphics reminds me of the pre-release naysayers of Metroid Prime, yeah, 3-d is a terrible idea (i wish i knew how to do a sarcastic smilie), anyway i preordered 2 days ago, and can pick up the bonus disk on feb 17th at EB. really can't wait for this WW, i think i'll take a vaca day from work that day! heh heh

I'm betting that you haven't even looked at any of the videos? Because anyone in their right mind would see that the game is visually stunning in every respect. This game has the GameCube pulling effects out of it's arse. Not just that, but this 'processor intensive' game is running at a fluid 60fps... No jerks unlike RL.

I'm sorry, but this game is not only technically or visually stunning, but is artisticly awe inspiring. But that's just my opinion, I guess you can all have your own :D.

There are just elements in this game that would have been totally absent if the graphics were of the SW2000 demo. Then again, those graphics could benefit this game in one way or another. I can't really comment any more until I play and finish the game.

All I know is it's set to be the best experience this generation in gaming, for now :D.

[GameKinG]

And, Im pretty sure DC was the first console that was capable of cel-shading. Despite how it looks, its not exactly a technical plummit.
