Peter jackson must be pissed

Jonbo298 · 03-10-2005, 03:00 PM

LMAO, it does look way too LotR'ish

But at least its shaping up to be the Zelda game people have been waiting for (looks wise) since OoT

I just love that it seems you get your boomerang from a disgruntled baboon.

Still wish it was celshaded though. The trailer is nice and all but don't see the fun yet.

And still no title. Bummer.

EDIT: Just watched a higher quality version of the trailer. Kind of disappointing. Better than that Shadow the Hedgehog game though.

Just watched it finally, Link and a Goron fighting each other? hmmmmm

It may look like LOTR but a lot of it is based on Norse mythology and Viking mythology.

From LOTR we have the fire guardian, it a lot of cases called Ifrit.
The big tree Ents are a huge figure in norse mythology.

Its no surprise to me if Zelda is based on Norse mythology too.

and your wrong about it being best graphics this generation......

I'd still have to say Gran Turismo 4 by far.... still has the best graphics I've ever seen........ ESPECIALLY on the PS2... (VUP's anyone?)

Awesome.

No real words to describe it.

Seth · 03-10-2005, 07:39 PM

Looks pretty sweet.

I never did finish WW. I got too bored sailing around.

but yeah, I'll probably end up buying this.

The Germanator · 03-10-2005, 08:12 PM

Yes! Just watched it, and it got me pumped as all get-out. Can't wait to be playing this game, whenever that may be.

Well IMO some parts of the game are animated quite well, like when Link was going to dive in the water, you can see him open his mouth can take in air.......... and the facial expression when the spider was chasing him was nice, however the side stepping animation needs some work.

It also looks like the combat has improved a bit......Link can now downward stab an enemy like in SC2 and he can also use his shield to hit an enemy or atleast push em back
( That can be seen when the trailer hits 1:08 or 1:10 when he's fighting the strafos (sp), hey maybe he was being taught that move when he was fighting with the Rock guy )

Also, Link can ride boars, I wonder if he can hit riders off of their boars and then ride them?

Or maybe he can jump on the boars with the riders still on them and then throw them off and take control.

I do admit it's taking me a while to get adjusted to the look and the over all feel of the game but it looks like it's gonna be great.

I wonder what's new gameplay wise in terms of puzzles and stuff.

O and if that music is in game music then I'll be very happy.

Wow. What a great way to end the day. Wasnt expecting this at all. It's looking pretty amazing.
