It surpassed my own, actually.

I expected another good ol' romp through Hyrule with traditional LoZ gameplay, but nothing like this.

The graphics were very well done, art/character design was great, the story was awesome and the characters, all of them, really brought it the whole game world to life. For once, Hyrule felt like an actual thriving and living world with characters that had lives and not just roles, as in previous LoZ games.

But anyway.. yeah, to me.. it ranks up there with the greats of LttP and OoT, as well as among all Cube games and most action/adventure ones, too.

Yes it did. After the different settings and style of Majoras Mask and Wind Waker, I was looking forward to a true blue, "traditional" Zelda game ala Ocarina or Link to the Past. A good ol' romp through Hyrule with a lot of the series' staples there was something I was looking forward to, and Twilight delivered great on that.

It's not as great as I thought it was going to be, it seems like it was a little overhyped. but its still a good game

Agreed. I do think it was overhyped not just as a game but as Nintendo's "savior" game. Still, a fitting farewell for our Cube.

he made a forum? as for TP yeah it did but it was more traditional than i expected, i knew it wouldn't beat link to the past and Oot but i liked it better than wind waker... WW was awesome but too short and easy, tons of fun, but easy, i never died and in TP i died like 3 or 4 times.

When I compare this game to Majora's Mask and OoT I see an ABYSMAL game. The story line was all in cutscenes, so there was no detail when it came to depth. What was the point of the fairy? Why was Midna even created? Personally, I think Zant was cool until I fought the wimpy loser. Link looks like a girl, ganon was cheesy and easy( just like the whole game) The temples were bland, not enough enemies, items were new but barely used, and overall the game just seemed like it was thrown together too fast.

i couldnt agree more. i thought zant was awesome....until i fought him and thats when i lost ALL my respect for him. what was once this awesome, really sinister seeming dude then turns into some weird maniac who acts like a pansy. and then ganondorf was way too easy and the battles with him were so anti-climatic unlike the ones in say OOT or WW. i didnt enjoy the temples either, infact in most cases i was thinking to myself 'oh no not another temple' (although some were good in terms of puzzles) overall i wish the game had come out ALOT earlier because having waited so long for... this... thing... it really dissapoints me.

If you actually read what I said, I was pleased with TP, and did enjoy it. I just thought that it would be better than what I was expecting.

Yeah I was being blunt. My point is there are just a ton of people making threads about how much they disliked the game or how it was a disappoinment or not as good as they expected. I'm just saying this forum needs some new topics to discuss.

Pretty disapointing. To be honest, it wouldn't upset me one bit if this game got a score as low as a 7.0. I can name 15 things that makes the game horrible to me.

It went well beyond my expectations. It took me 90 hours to see everything. Great game.

And if getting hot girls wasn't a rare event for you, you wouldn't be proclaiming it in your signature. Just thought you might want to know how transparent that is.

I found some of the puzzles and bosses to be on the easy side. I was hoping for a faster-paced last boss fight. And a big freaking two-handed sword because I loved it in Ocarina.

    It definately surpased my expectations. The game was just plain fun to play and explore for countless hours. It may have seemed a bit easy here and there, but for sometone who has played Zelda games for years now thats explainable.

    The temples in the game were very well done I thought, bringing in new looks and weapons to master, while not making it frustratingly hard to get the hang of them. Wolf form was probally the only let down for me, I wanted more of it!

Pretty much what I expected except the difficulty which was way to easy (and in turn made the players motivation to side quest dwindle).

Care to go ahead and name those? I haven't played the game yet so I'm interested in seeing the pros/cons of the game.

It went beyond my expectations.  All I thought it would be is just another OoT.  I was extremely surprised.  I have lost some interest in gaming in this past game generation (the ps2, xbox, gcn era), but this game brought back my love of gaming, especially console gaming.  Im serious about that, I felt there was little innovation this past generation.  I'm glad this game was worth the wait.  It's been a while since I've gamed for like 5 hours strait for a week in a very long time.  That's why I love Nintendo: they can kindle or rekindle anybody's love in gaming.  And oh yeah, TP is tied with OoT as my favorite zelda game.

The entire game was one big yawn for me.  I think the 8.9 that GameSpot gave it was extremely generous.

No, it didnt. Sadly, Nintendo brags about how they are an innovative company, but with TP they showed that they arent. This is just an Ocarina of Time with better graphics and bigger world. The gameplay is the same, the story is the same, the fields, the characters everything is the same. I played this game eight years ago if you ask me.

It was much better than I expected, actually I try not to hype games, many people did it with TP and they got disappointed, I think the same thing is going to happen with SSBB when it comes out, people are expecting to much of that game, it may wind up not being that good.
