Favorite Zelda games

[Canyarion]

Just to revive the forum a bit:
In what order do you like the Zelda games?

Mine:

9. The Wind Waker
8. The Adventure of Link
7. The Legend of Zelda
6. Links Awakening
5. Oracle of Seasons
4. Oracle of Ages
3. A Link to the Past
2. Ocarina of Time
1. Majora's Mask

I haven't played 4 Swords yet, but I don't think it will be very high in my list.

I really really don't like The Wind Waker. :Puke: Annoying graphics, annoying gameplay, annoying texts that you can't scroll away, boring puzzles... stupid story.

OoT beats MM just because of.... the story with Zelda and Gannon in it. Wait wait no, Majora's Mask is better, because of the dark mood and all the stuff beside the dungeons.

Your list? :)

[Ginkasa]

Top to bottom:

OoT
MM
LttP
WW
LA
OoA
OoS
LoZ
AoL

6. Wind Waker
5. The Legend of Zelda
4. Link's Awakening
3. Ocarina of Time

1. A Link to the Past

[Stonecutter]

A link to the past is 1
OoT 2
LoZ 3

Everything else is good, but those three are tops.

[NYGiant]

Oracle of Ages and Seasons is tied for 1 but the worst game is the original.

[Dyne]

I wouldn't number them.. on a one to ten scale, they're all above ten... :p

Except for Link's Adventure. It wasn't as good as the others. The Oracles are awesome; I still play them. Ocarina of Time was an awesome epic. Majora's Mask was a great psycological thriller. Wind Waker was very artistic. Link's Awakening was a great side-game. LTTP is amazing in every aspect. But.. Link's Adventure was kind of.. off. But still kind of good.

And we can't forget the CD-i Zeldas. Ugh.

Just leave now.

[The Germanator]

Just leave now.

I second that.

[Vampyr]

8) The Adventure of Link
7) Majora's Mask
6) Wind Waker
5) Links Awakening
4) The Legend of Zelda
3) The Legend of Zelda: Oracle of Seasons
2) The Legend of Zelda: Oracle of Ages (better than Seasons. Much better)
1) Ocarina of Time (best. game. ever.)

Im not saying that "The Adventure of Link" wasnt good, because it was. I really liked it, but it was just the worst of the best. I havnt played "A Link to the Past", but I here it was really awesome, and most people claim it to be the best. I will eventually get it for the GBA.

I will point out that it was a hard decision on whether to put "The Legend of Zelda" ahead of Links Awakening or not. I really loved the original. NYgiant is insane. The original rocked so much.

[CrOnO_LiNk]

I second that.

1. Zelda: Ocarina of Time
2. Zelda Bonus Disk (Gamecube)
3. Ocarina of Time Import
4. Ocarina of Time Manual


...Ok, seriously...

1. Ocarina of Time
2. Majora's Mask
3. A Link to the Past
4. Wind Waker
4. Zelda 1
5. Zelda 2
6. Link's Awakening
7. Both Oracles

I really, really love OoT.

[Vampyr]

1. Majora's Mask

MM

2. Majora's Mask

2. Majora's Mask

How in the world is this possible? Majora's Mask is doing awfully well. Why? I do not think that it was that great at all. A mere shadow when compared to most of the other Zelda games.

What?! That was a great game! Especially with Diety Link. HE was bad-fudgin'-ass

[Vampyr]

I dont know. I just thought it was boring and tedious.

[Dark Samurai]

thought i think that there was some tediousness in the game (the whole time thing) i thought it is worth mentioning.

[CrOnO_LiNk]

I dont know. I just thought it was boring and tedious.

I hated the time... The clock pissed me off and almost made me dislike the game, but after beating it, I realized it's a very awesome game. Playing as a Deku, Goron, and a Zora is awesome... Oh yeah, and Diety Link, that's very awesome...

But still, that game was awesome, but the time blows in my opinion.

[Jason1]

I'll just number the one's ive played, and wont include the others. In order.

1. Ocarina of Time--Quite simply, the greatest game ever made, and the crowning achivement of videogames still to this day
2. Link's Awakening--Something about this game just makes me like it...
3. Zelda--The classic. What more is there to say?
4. Wind Waker--Turned out great, even after all the controversy
5. Majora's mask--just didnt care for this near as much as OOT
6. Oracle of Seasons
7. A link to the past.

[The Germanator]

I dont know. I just thought it was boring and tedious.

When I first read about the time feature in previews and such, it really pissed me off, I thought it would ruin the game for me...But the more I played it the cooler the whole idea became. The environment and mood of the game pushed it over Oot for second place for me. But since nothing can beat the best 2D Zelda, unless a new one is made for GBA, Link to the Past reigns supreme for now.

[Ginkasa]

I thought the time thing was neat. I was going through a super "NPCs actually have lives outside of what you do to them!" thing (I was playing a lot of Shenmue and Harvest Moon and the then Japan only Animal Forest really interested me) so that probably added to my enjoyment of Majora's Mask.

And Oni Link is just awesome. They need to add the beam thing back to the Master Sword (take the power down a few notches maybe...).



*shrugs and walks away*

[NYGiant]

Oracle of Ages and Seasons are the best 2D Zelda games and the best zelda games

[Ginkasa]

Why is that? What about the makes them better than any other Zelda game?


*shrugs and walks away*

[Canyarion]

Hm well I gotta say that Oracles had cool puzzles. The story was nice... euh and the combination of the games was awesome :D.
Oh, the trailer was good too. :p

[Vampyr]

I agree that the Oracle games were very good. I loved them quit a bit.

Whats makes them so special is the password system. Also, being able to choose an animal companion made it awesome, and I LOVED collecting all the cool rings.

I thought it was amazing how you could interact with the characters. For example, being able to name that couples kid.

I also believe that it had a VERY interesting story line that suited the Zelda series very well.

[DimHalo]

I ranked the one's I have played. The only reason The Adventure of Link is so low on the list is because I haven't played it in a really long time and I can't remember how it compares. I was also a little kid at the time so I don't know how I can rank it with the others.


8. Majora's Mask
7. The Adventure of Link
6. Oracle of Ages
5. Oracle of Seasons
4. Ocarina of Time
3. Wind Waker
2. The Legend of Zelda
1. A Link to the Past

[Vampyr]

8. Majora's Mask

Booya! Somebody put MM in its place.

:beerchug:

[thatmariolover]

These are the ones I've played. I never have liked the Adventure of Link, and that caused me to not get more than 15 minutes into the game. So this might be a bit harsh.

9. The Adventure of Link
8. Oracle of Ages
7. Oracle of Seasons
6. Majora's Mask
5. The Legend of Zelda
4. Ocarina of Time
3. Wind Waker
2. Link's Awakening
1. A Link to the Past (Four Swords)

[Canyarion]

Hm... very funy how the opinions are so different... You'd expect MM to be next to OoT.. because they look like eachother. :) And some people actually like TWW better than OoT.

One hates Oracles, the other loves them. Same with Link's Awakening. :)

[GiMpY-wAnNaBe]

lol, i never played any of the zelda games for more than 10 minutes.i just never had a chance to get into them. Looks like i might, though

A rare specimen indeed. I didnt know there were still people out there who has never played a Zelda game.

[thatmariolover]

I thought the world had progressed beyond such dark times.

Dear dear Gimpy... Please. For your own salvation.
________________

As for not liking the Oracle games.

I liked them lots. More than most other games. But they were low on my list as far as Zelda games go...

----Zelda games (high=wow)


----Most other games (middle=good)

----Adventure of Link (low=blarg I am dead)

[NYGiant]

I must be the only person that thinks Zelda 2 is better than Zelda 1

[Vampyr]

I must be the only person that thinks Zelda 2 is better than Zelda 1

Yes. Yes you are.

[thatmariolover]

I must be the only person that thinks Zelda 2 is better than Zelda 1

Nah. I've got three friends in my group that likes Zelda 2 better. So you're not alone.

[NYGiant]

I also think Link's Awakening DX is better than A Link to the Past and Ocarina of Time.

[bobcat]

I loved Majora's Mask.

AMazing game. OOT was equally as impressive

[thatmariolover]

I also think Link's Awakening DX is better than A Link to the Past and Ocarina of Time.

See now, I really should have put a tie for those two. I did really enjoy Link's Awakening DX as much as aLttP.

About 5 years ago my kid brother lost my Gameboy Color and Link's Awakening DX at a local fair. So it's been a while since I've played it.

You should have tied him to the tracks of one of the roller coasters.

[thatmariolover]

Haha. Good idea. Morbid, but oddly appropriate.

[Canyarion]

That's funny, 5 years a go I found a brand new GBC with Zelda DX. At a fair. :)
But anyway, I'm really looking forward to the Zelda disc, that will be my chance to finally beat Zelda 1 and 2. :D
Hehe, all Zelda games can be played on the GameCube soon...

Well, almost all of them. Can't forget the ol' CDi games:p

[thatmariolover]

Yeah, and isn't Zelda DX being left out of the collection?

[Ginkasa]

GameBoy Player. You can play LttP, LA (DX), OoA, and OoS using the GBP. Although they're not on a GCN disc, you can still play them using the GCN.



*shrugs and walks away*

[Canyarion]

And that's exactly what I meant. :D

CDi-what? What's Philips? :p

Ok gotta defend Philips here since they're Dutch: they make good televisions. :)
