Favorite "Zelda" Game?

Re: Favorite "Zelda" Game?
Can we have one moviefan thread that doesn't, in some fashion, devolve into a lame argument?
Didn't think so, carry on.

Re: Favorite "Zelda" Game?
Just because you don't get charged with something doesn't mean its legal. Its just something relatively minor that isn't worth the time, money, and effort to actually formally charge a person.
For example, jaywalking is a crime although very few people are ever charged with it because its so minor. Likewise, minor speeding of only a few MPH over the speed limit is still illegal although most police officers won't bother pulling you over for it.
That's why they go after the "big dogs" (i.e. the distributors) rather than the individual downloaders. Sometimes, take the music industry for example, they will go after downloaders though. Its just not that common because its usually not worth the effort.

But this is taking the thread way off topic, so I'm gonna leave it at that.

SNES A Link to the Past hands down, end of poll! Seriously, it was the last good Zelda game. Once they went 3D they went to shit. Actually pretty excited for the new 3DS game.

Re: Favorite "Zelda" Game?
I included a disclaimer with every section of that film, and the company hasn't asked me to remove it.

A disclaimer that you're breaking the law? Good to know!
And P.S. we wouldn't harp on this stuff if you weren't always trying to claim the moral high ground.

You paid for that one specific copy. That doesn't mean you are entitled to other copies for free. That's like going to a grocery and buying one apple and thinking you are entitled to more free apples because you paid for one already.
A disclaimer doesn't stop it from being an illegal act. What would you disclaim anyway? "Hey guys this is an illegally uploaded movie. User beware." Yeah, that won't work.
Also just because the company hasn't asked you to remove it also doesn't mean its not illegal. That's like thinking you are only guilty of something if you get caught. No, you're still guilty. You just weren't caught.

Re: Favorite "Zelda" Game?
Hey guys! I am going to murder someone. Its all okay because I am disclaiming it in advance here.
I don't know which is dumber, moviefan's defense of his illegal uploading/downloading activities or that whole master dog garbage.

Re: Favorite "Zelda" Game?
Is it a sin to call myself a Zelda fan and I've never played Link to the Past. My vote is Ocarina. N64 in general holds a special place in my heart as the first console i could consider mine. Both Ocarina and Mario 64 are still two of the best games I've ever played.

I'm on the opposite end. Link To The Past was the last Zelda game I've played. Well, I played a few minutes of one of them on the Wii, but I wouldn't count that. I haven't owned a Nintendo console since the SNES.

Ocarina of Time but only the "master" quest

I have no idea why it came into my head. But I just started thinking about Zelda II last week. My signature is a little nod to it. Anyways, that game sucks.
A Link to the Past is the best game ever. Not just Zelda. But any game.
It wins against other Zelda games, because it's story is simple, and not so definite. While the later 3D Zelda showed us everything, I had to use my 10 year old mind to imagine what it's like down there on the ground. I would equate it to a movie that isn't insistent on showing everything.
But yea. The way you older people had Star Wars, Star Trek or comics - I had Zelda nerdom and had interest in the stories and everything. It's kind of a big deal to me.

I kind of liked Zelda II. Seems incredibly out of place as a Zelda game though (given how the rest of the series developed), and feels like more of a standard RPG, even having to grind a bit for XP.

Re: Favorite "Zelda" Game?
That's probably because a different team worked on it, compared to Miyamoto's main group that did the first.

You guys have this ridiculous obsession with him. Yes, his religion posts tend to be annoying but half the time you guys bring it up first. He believes in something that you don't. Get over it.

I voted Zelda II as a joke but I actually do like the game, and I'd rather play that version of Link than the games where he looks like a "It's a Small World" puppet.
