    I am late to the review party, but the game is a can't miss opportunity

    Enough has been said about the game! I just came to say +1 to how you need to play it, even if it is not your kind of game. If you have an open mindset you will surely enjoy it! For me it has the best open world experien... Read Full Review

    Great pre Ganon. Not so great post ganon

    One of the main things I wanted to see from this game was what happened after ganon was defeated. When I defeated ganon it was on my first try which was WAY TOO easy, thunderblight ganon was way harder, I watched the end... Read Full Review

    What I think of Breath of The Wild

    Breath of the Wild is a very good game, with many cinematic cutscenes telling the player about what happened in the past. You can explore across Hyrule and perform many glitches found by glitch hunters. Everyday, people ... Read Full Review

    Nintendo raises the bar.

    Any gamer that's been on the internet knows that it took four long, daunting, arduous years for Nintendo to release this much-anticipated and much-ballyhooed "The Legend of Zelda" title after properly announcing it. We f... Read Full Review

    It set the bar high

    I must admit it took me quite a while to start liking it, there some things that can/need to be fixed, but the idea goes for a very interesting way in the future, I can't believe how open world can be and physics accura... Read Full Review
