Do you think the Nintendo devs are watching what SCEA is doing with the new God of War? Would they make changes to compete? Looks like they have.

Can't say anything until I actually see gameplay and details. However, I doubt that it would be more 'epic'. It might be expansive, but I doubt there's anything near the scale of GoWIII in the game.

Right now, I don't even know if Nintendo made Zelda into a first person shooter or an RTS. :P

i guess it depends on what you define as "epic" especially since they are different kinds of games

Back to Gintama I see.

I don't think it will be like that. Then again, we know next to nothing about the game.

Don't think epic is the right word. It will probably be fantastic, but I don't think it'll have the scale and epicness of GOW3. I'm not saying it won't be just as good as if not better than GOW3, but it just won't be as epic

LOL @ Zelda, why do people see The Legend of Zelda as the second coming of Jesus? I dont see wats so good about Zelda, the only Zelda game I've played was the one for the GC and I thought it was pretty lame.

Maybe, if Link decides not to wear a stupid pointy hat and a dress.

Zelda games are ok, but i wouldnt really describe them as "epic." That termis thrown around far too often, it really kills the meaning.

How can you say that when you've only played one Zelda game? Zelda Windwaker was one of the weakest Zeldas, IMO. You should at least try Zelda A link to the past and OoT before making a judgement on the franchise.

Well thats not fair to judge the franchise on those two either since they are miles better than any of the others. OOT and LttP are really good while windwaker and twilight princess were not very good at all. Overall its an average franchise, with a couple games that are waaay above average

yeah and if he had played it the whole way through (if not, why say its lame?) he would probably at least remember the name of the game he played, instead of just saying "the one for the GC". which one? tp? ww? OoT: Master Quest? Four Swords?

scale doesn't determine how epic something is, and if they pulled a majora's mask and gave us something other then fight ganon again and save the princess it will be epic.

Well I guess to fully appreciate Windwaker, you'd have to be a long time Zelda and Nintendo fan (which I am so I do appreciate it :p)

Zelda > GoW for me.

Not saying GoW is bad at all, but there is something about the Legend that never dies :D

For that to happen, it would have to be more epic than Shadow of the Colossus....and nothing is more epic than Shadow of the Colossus.

If Nintendo is taking tips from GoW3 for their next Zelda game then the next Zelda is going to suck ass.

I found that the Morpheel battle in Twilight Princess seemed kind of God of War-ish. But, I don't think there's much points of comparison between the two. For example, Zelda has a heavy focus on exploration and having a protagonist that isn't a whiny psychopath.

I never really saw zelda as an "epic" type of game (aside from the boss battles).. at least not in the way GOW does it.

Why was this topic even made?

Nothing is really Known about the New Zelda. It's like comparing god of war 3 with a ghost. Will they put the polish on Zelda like they did with Mario galaxy or will it be another decent game (twilight Princess) which was a huge rehash. Won't know to We know much more detail.

i hope zelda doesn't compete with god of war. i hope zelda just decides to set the new standard for motion controlled gaming and do for it what OoT did for 3d gaming.

Kratos is a ultra-violent man who kills everything and anything.

Link is a fairy boy who kills dodongoes.

I doubt it.

the game's been developing for this entire gen so far. They can't change the scale now. Plus I'm pretty sure Miyamoto and Eonuma keep zelda as it's own thing. I bet they are looking at topping Twilight Princess and exploring wiimotionplus moreso than equalling GOW
