If you want a true Zelda experience, break out the N64 and/or GameCube and have at it.

User Rating: 7.5 | The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword WII
High Points: Excellent graphics, good weapon selecton, a huge world to explore, lots of tasks to keep you busy.

Low Points: Controls are kinda sloppy, feels more like a Final Fantasy game than a Zelda game, Save Points? WTF?, kind of a letdown for Zelda fans


It's hard to count all the games in the Zelda series. We have had so many games that it's hard to keep track. Now we have The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword, the game rumored to take place before Ocarina of Time in the Zelda timeline. Skyward Sword is not a bad game by any means, but it isn't perfect. It mostly feels like a Final Fantasy game because there are so many side tasks, and it's unnecessary save points. The story is very solid, and still typical Zelda, and the plot leaves you guessing until the end. This game is kind of pointlessly difficult because of it's controls. The controls are a little sloppy and aren't what I expected them to be. Skyward Sword is a decent game, but if you want a true Zelda experience, break out the N64 and GameCube and have at it.
