PSM3 magazine testifies the controversial:
"We can already sense your eyes rolling skyward. And - yes - PSM3 is a Sony-only magazine. But the truth is exactly the opposite.
From its 8-bit beginnings through to modern-day masterpieces such as Majora's Mask, we reckon we've stuck around for every last 'der-der-der-daaah' the Zelda series has had to offer. And so we feel authorised to tell you the words few dare to utter - Okami beats Twilight Princess hands down."
TheGamer Writes "In my experience, The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess’ once-warm reception has chilled somewhat over the years. Praised at launch as a beautiful return to form after the “childish” art style of its direct predecessor, the world eagerly embraced a game that more closely followed Ocarina of Time’s famous structure and plot cues. Perhaps most alluringly of all, the grandeur and sheer scope of this reimagined Hyrule Field wowed millions of us."
The best Legend of Zelda games experiment and tackle new grounds for the industry. These are the essential titles in the series you need to play.
I am a huge Zelda fan and love them all, but for me Ocarina Of Time is the greatest and my second all time favourite game after Final Fantasy VII.
You sir, have good taste in games :)
I also love all of the Zelda games but I adore Windwaker (Specifically the HD version on WiiU) most of all. It is a close run thing with Breath of the Wild though.
Special mention to Cadence of Hyrule too, what an awesome spin off title that was!
Cheers Spuds, yep i love Windwaker too, beautiful artstyle, and i loved sailing and finding all the secrets out there.
Agreed. For me top 3 of all time is.
1. ocarina of time
2. Final fantasy Vll
3. MGS1
Oh gee can't imagine what Number 1 is
....
A Link to the Past, Ocarina of Time and Wind Waker etc is better than Breath of the Wild.
I think it really depends on what you're looking for. If you want a traditional Zelda game then OoT or WW would be better to you. But if you want a Zelda game that really leans into adventure and exploration, and if you want intelligent systems/logic, BotW would be the better game.
I enjoy both. I understand why some people aren't fond of it but for me it was a breath of fresh air that I really needed. I'd become so burnt out on unimaginative games and BotW sort of made me appreciate games again, as weird as that may sound.
Right...so let's pretend ocarina of time didnt have exploration, secret dungeons and other secrets. Complex boss mechanics and exploration rewards. At least a traditional Zelda has dungeons.
What point are you attempting to make? At no point did I say that OoT didn't have any of that. However, the level of exploration and sense of adventure are vastly different between OoT and BotW.
Majora's Mask still holds as my favorite to this day, despite being the black sheep of the series.
I love them all, but Wind Walker, Link to the Past and Minish Cap are my favorites
A new Okami Shiranui Nendoroid has moved closer to the production phase. Max Factory has confirmed a June 2022 launch and opened pre-orders.
Either way I'm happy I'll be able to have Zelda TP and Okami on the same system ^^
there both fantastic! why do we always have to do this > or < stuff. Lets say both are great and masterpieces in their own right and call it a day.
Okami's gameplay is like a far more advanced version of the wolf gameplay on TP...I'd choose Okami over Zelda as well. The only thing Zelda has better is its useful inventory...I didn't find myself using that many items in Okami
Zelda Twilight Princess beats the crap out of Okami.
im not sure why they are being compared...i mean both are some sort of adventure game but they are both great on their own.
" Okami's antagonists are well-defined, but nothing makes sense in TP until halfway through.
"
ok i think this is a little cheap....
i mean you dont have to spoil directly everything because this keeps the story interesting.
you as a player would ask yourself whats going on, meaning it doesnt makes sense to ya.
The more you play the more you will know/learn.
i really dont see how this is a bad thing.
so if i rule that one out
they both are equally good.
Im going to get okami for the Wii, if its being released in the Eu that is, and i sure know the experience would be different from the start so i really do not get why people keep comparing these 2.
i must admit i liked zelda:WW style better though.....dunno why.
