Has anyone ever...

[ZebraRampage]

Has anyone ever completely beaten Wind Waker? When I say complete, I mean all heart pieces, gotten all the treasure, completely explored the whole area, gone on all the pirate platforms..everything. I doubt there is a maximum amount of Skull Necklaces, Joy Pendants, and Knights Crests. Well maybe there are, because even if the enemies that you kill to get those items, come back, they probably won't give you those items a second time, such as the Pirates with the joy pendants. I started playing this game again because I accidentally erased my first game right after beating it. I should have made a copy of it, because after I beat the game, it asked me if I wanted to start over with a few new features such as the new clothes on link. I put it over my first game because I thought it would just add the clothes, but not completely start over. I was pretty upset. At the moment though I'm at the Earth Temple, and I have three triforce charts at the moment. I glad that I'm almost finished because I really only played this game to fight Ganon. I am upset that I only got to do it once. That battle was so great. I believe I beat him with a quarter of a heart left on my first try. I guess I'll try to get as much stuff as I can. So has anyone gotten everything?

[KillerGremlin]

I had enough trouble sitting through the game and beating it, let alone collecting all the stuff. That game wasn't very captivating for me.....so yeah.

But if I ever play it again, I'll go for 100%.

[Jason1]

Naw, im usually not compelled enough to go for 100% in most games, even the great ones.

[thatmariolover]

Yeah, I've completed 100% of every Zelda game thus far. But I mean, I do that over the span of a couple of months.

[Canyarion]

I beated OoT on 100%.... but TWW was just too boring and not rewarding enough.

"For all your work, you will get............. a chart! "

Link: "Argh not a stupid cart again! "


Did they really expect us to go search for the treasure after every chart? I just saved them all up and got the treasure when I was around. So I never knew who gave me a heart piece and who gave me some crappy rupees.

[Dyne]

While it was a great game, I didn't get 100%. I didn't even get the Nintendo Gallery. And.. in Zelda games I usually get everything but the pieces of heart.

Oh wait, I did complete Majora's Mask--but that was because I got an NP Player's Guide. You just HAD to do sidequests in that game, because the normal game was so short.

[Dark Samurai]

I got everything, but I sold the game as soon as I did.

[Typhoid]

If i had it, i would try for 100%, but i dont, so i cant.

I usually strive to get 100% in the games i have that have the option, such as FFX-2...

The whole cell-shaded thing stopped me from purchasing it.That and the lack of Gamecube.

*Curses the fact he has 92% in FFX-2 and doesnt know what the hell to do*

[Crono]

I've had WW since Christmas and I still haven't beat it. FFXI took control of my gaming time since January.

[KillerGremlin]

After being blown away by Ocarina Of Time, and the equally captivating Majora’s Mask, I felt a tad bit cheated when I played and finished Wind Waker. Sure, Wind Waker looks really really good. In fact, Wind Waker was one hell of a good looking game with fluid animations and details left and right. But its graphics didn’t cover up the fact that it was basically Ocarina Of Time, with fewer temples and more exploring.

Now, I’ll admit, Majora’s Mask was no Ocarina Of Time either, but it had interesting side quests, and you could accomplish a lot by exploring. And I personally got pulled into the world of Majora’s Mask. I thought the way the game played out was one of a kind, and even though it focused more on side quests then temples, that was okay.

Wind Waker isn’t a bad game. But it takes a long time to beat. That seems to be one of the major issues for me. I have yet to beat Metroid Prime, despite it being one of the best games I have ever played. I got it over Christmas, played the hell out of it, and got thrust back into school. You need at least an hour of time to get situated and do some exploring in Metroid Prime, which is what kept me from beating it. Now, the problem is I got pretty far in Metroid Prime, and I’ll have to spend a lot of time gaining lost ground (because I refuse to pick up where I left off several months ago. As a gamer, that feels like a forbidden taboo).

I beat Wind Waker in a week or two, mostly because I had a lot of free time on my hands to play through it, and because I was so motivated from all the energy I had before its release. I had that bad boy preordered way before it came out. I do plan to go back and get 100% completion in Wind Waker one day, but it may take a while.

I just hope that the new Zelda game does something innovative. I don’t mind the Zelda formula, but some new twists in the gameplay would be nifty.

[Jason1]

You definatley need to start over with Metroid Prime. BEST GAME ON GAMECUBE. Hands down.

[Canyarion]

Hm it's in the top5 games. And yeah, starting it over again is what you should do.
I haven't played it again after I beat it, I have no time. But the first time through it was superb.

Ehm, yeah, what Jason said.

[KillerGremlin]

I probably will. I got pretty far into it, and it was an awesome game. But what can I say....I need more time.

[bobcat]

beat it, but didn't get everything :/

[Storm Eagle]

I didn't get everything the first time I finished it, but I tried to do that afterwards, and succeeded.

I miss the good old days, where finishing these games meant finding EVERYTHING. With Nintendo brand games since the SNES days, it's like they have these games where there are a whole lot of items to find, yet you can finish the game so quickly without bothering to find all those items. I wonder if there are games on X-Box or Playstation are like that.
