Yeah, buddy!!!

I remember back in 97-98, all I ever thought about was the release of The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time. I knew everything there was to know about that game before it was released, and I was completely obsessed. Very, very dorkish, I admit, but I remembered playing the NES original Zeldas with my dad when I was a wee boy, and it was almost nostalgic for me.

Now, I feel 14 again with these new Zelda screens...

I finished Ocarina of Time within 4 hours of purchasing it.

Thats not possible. The game takes longer than four hours to finish, even you never make one misstep.

I'm telling you I finished this game in around 4-5 hours. i don't remember the exact time because it was years ago. Broght it home and went right through it. It was too easy IMO. The only part that stomped me for a few minutes is the part where you controlled how the water raised and lowered ....

Believe me I finished it in 4-5 hours.

Again, its not possible.

The fastest OoT speed run (going through the game as fast as possible, not doing anything that doesn't complete the game) takes a tad over six hours. Check out kazaa if you want to see video of it.

I agree... the game has something like an hour of CGI in it! That leaves about 3-4 hours to beat the game. Seeing as it takes a little over a minute to cross Hylian field on Epona, 3-4 hrs. would be a perfect run, not going anywhere unnecessary, and not doing anything for the pure fun of it.

I played it again about 8 months ago, and I put about 12-14 hours in it. It was my 5th run-through.



BTW, Majora's Mask was awesome, too.

Well regardless of time I finished it the first day I bought the game and did so without losing one life. LikeI am going to remember the exact time I finished it in back in the 90s ....

I preordered it through the mail to get that gold cover version so you can tell I was looking forward to it. It's not the first game I have bought and finished in the same day. I also finished Star Fox 64 the first time I played it. I still have not finished Zelda 2 though so go figure. (The NES one!)

I can't get anywhere in any of the GTA games. After ten minutes I'm running from the law.

I can buy finishing it in the first day, as tough as it is. I thought Star Fox 64 was a joke after beating it in like an hour, but that was on easy levels, and I still had no idea how much stuff could be done with that game. I beat it the first day, and played it for months after.

On a side note, I've never owned either PS system, mainly because I HATE the controller. It's WAY too small for my hands. Feels like I'm massaging it with my fingers.

That's why I love the original Xbox controller...

Majora's Mask rocks...ALOT!!!
I almost like it better than OoT...but its not as large. (less dungeons)
but the whole '3 days' is cool...Ground hog day zelda style.
What absolutely ROCks in that game is if you find ALL of the masks...and get the last one "ONI LINK"
He looks like an older evil link with blue costume, white eyes, tatoos and a HUGE double bladed crisscross sword

Back to DS VS PSP, does nobody undersatnd the graphics are the same, remember the 2 bit grapghics watch for the pattern, 2-bit, 4, 8, 16-bit NES, 32-bit SNES, 64 bit N46 and ps1, 128 bit gcn, xbox and ps2.


they only double.
handhelds are no exception, gba was 32, ds and psp are 64. But of course with new technology graphics look higher quality then 6 years go.

And besides that DS is better, touch screen, voice recodnition, wifi, dual Screen, and biult in chat service.

Oh! and in a few month you'll be able to bye a router for the Ds and go online with people all over the world, connect wireless to router also.

I stand by PSP as I did in this old thread.
480x272-psp=cleaner looking
256x192 X'2-DS=Pixely looking

Game selection as of today looks better on PSP.
