What Gamespot Users have to say about Zelda II: The Adventure of Link

  • Rating:8.3

    Its a departure from the LoZ formula, but it still a great game without question.

    Zelda 2: Links Adventure is the sequel to the hit NES game: The Legend of Zelda, although its a sequel to the first Zelda and uses many of the same characters, the gameplay is so much different that not to many people en... Read Full Review

    I'm really suprised by these bad reviews.....

    Personally Zelda 2 turned out as a great classic. Impressive graphics and gameplay for the action rpg gamer, yet it's easy to pick up and play right away. Fighting the knights and lizardmen is still challenging and enjoy... Read Full Review

    I don't understand why not very many like it, it's one of the best Zelda games ever!

    I first played this game on the NES, I didn't get that far, until I got it on Gameboy Advance. I fell in love with the game, because when I had played it on the NES, I didn't know what I was doing. I played it for a whil... Read Full Review

    Easily the worst Zelda game yet.

    When I first played this game, the first word that popped into my mind was "WTF." This game is absolutely horrible. The graphics and sound are both very good, but everything else is disastrous. Link barely has any health... Read Full Review

    Different but not a bad game

    Back in the days of NES, we did not know what was to come with the Legend of Zelda series. We didn't know the Ocarina of Time was going to be considered one of the best games of all time. We didn't know the Link was go... Read Full Review

    The Worst Zelda Game.

    The second Zelda game on the GBA wasn't a good idea. This game sucks! I love Zelda, but this sucks! I mean you could have at least updated it for the GBA! It's a side-scroller, which Mario games are good with, but not Ze... Read Full Review

    Terrible. A disgrace to all Zelda games.

    This is by far the worst Zelda game ever created. I dont know what Nintendo was thinking when they made this game. First off, a side scrolling Zelda just does not make sense. The gameplay and fighting are the worst p... Read Full Review

    Why not just rework this game? Why traumatize a whole new generation into thinking this game is good...

    This game wasn't good 20 years ago, it isn't good now. Oh, it could have been good. Maybe if the controls worked with the action, but no. This is Zelda meets Castlevania… except… wait… no, the Castlevania Classic Series ... Read Full Review
