I'll try that.
Well you don't need to be perfect.

For the most part, they'll say it was good, but not the best.. and you'll get the prize anyhow

It was pretty predictable honestly. I didn't do a great job, but they gave me the prize. I like prizes.

I guess me and Angrist must be retarded then. I found it to be one of the most frustrating things I have ever experienced in a zelda game. Probably took me at least 45 minutes to finally get it.

I second that. I still think I'm doing something wrong.

What can we say, some of us are musically gifted!

Anyhow, wrote up my brief thoughts on the game

Maybe some people are just rhythmically challenged?

I play a little bit of guitar and rythm is one of the things I do best. That can't be the problem.
I'll have to try it again after I beat the game... I think if I'd try it now, I'd hate it so much I wouldn't touch the game for months.

Well I finished the game just now. Easily the greatest final boss battle in Zelda History, at least from a gameplay standpoint. It was actually challenging.

I have hardly touched the game since that music mini-game. I tried to get into it again last weekend, but I just had too much to worry about irl.

I'll finish it next week.

Anybody see this? Its apparently the official timeline of the Zelda series. Its not how I would have placed them. Anybody interested in it?

Pfffff this is making it SO weird. I'd rather they hadn't tried to make sense of it at all.

Anyway, still playing SS from time to time. I got the first of the Dragon's songs.

Yea, who really cares what the timeline is?

You know there is NO WAY the designers were thinking this back when they were making most of these games. I can guarantee you they put 0 thought into where this or that game fit into a timeline that does not exist. I guess for some reason Nintendo decided they had enough pressure on them to release a timeline, so they came up with this garbage that really makes no sense anyways.

I think they've always known where each game would take place in relation to one or two games, but never took into account the ramifications it would on additional games. Ex: they pretty clearly knew they wanted TP to take some time after OoT, but didn't think about how that would affect OoT's pre-existing connections with TWW and ALttP.

I'm still playing the game, had five days in a row that I could not play the game thanks to the neighbor's son being an obnoxious little five years old that wants to take the controller out of your hands to play a game when he sees you playing videogames and me having to turn off the console for two days with no gaming. If I can't game on my house... nobody will. Those are my rules. XD And then having lots of work, which is good since I have to save up.

I haven't seen Yahtzee's review to keep myself spoiler free and will wait until I finish the game. So far I'm loving this thing.
