I haven't played anything other than Puzzle Quest for more than thirty minutes. I ... I have a problem
Tuesday, Feb 27, 2007
They're ports. Nothing more. Seriously, XBLA has most of their games have graphical upgrades that don't make their games look like crap. Can you imagine Ocarina with anti-aliasing and light bloom *cough* Twilight Princess *cough.* If they somehow get Goldeneye on the VC and it doesn't have some form of online play, I will be severely letdown. And I don't even like Goldeneye.
I can understand for a game like Super Mario Bros. you don't need to change a thing. But Mario 64? you could have at least put in the wallslide from the DS version (although I got the timing of wall jumps perfected in 1998, so it doesn't matter to me). And $5 bucks for Urban Champion?!?!?!?! Are you kidding me?
As of right now, I have the Zelda Collector's edition Gamecube Disc, which contains Zelda, Zelda 2, Ocarina, and Majora's Mask. I have Wind Waker. I have Twilight Princess. I downloaded A Link to the Past. I have the Ocarina Gamecube disc with the special version of Ocarina. I have my N64 carts for Ocarina and for Majora's Mask. I even have Link's Awakening DX. The only Zelda games I don't have is Ages, Seasons, Minish Cap, and the awful CDI games. I don't need to pay $10 more for another copy of a game I can play with my eyes closed. Especially when I can still play it on the Wii.
I love (sardonic) how when you put in a Gamecube disc into the Wii, you can't access the Wii menu. It's almost like they just popped in a Gamecube CPU or something and called it a day.
Let me end with this: Ocarina of Time was perfect in 1998. So far above and beyond anything before it. 10/10 with confidence. Now, the Zelda franchise has gotten bigger, but the game holds up incredibly well over time. Plenty of sidequests to keep you busy for a long time. The music is still some of the best ever put into a video game. The only music that comes to mind as better now is God of War. Maybe Katamari Damacy. However, there are some gripes against it. The obligitory "Hey, Listen" reference, the battle whelps get repetitive, and, most egregious, the cutscenes are not skipable. That just seems dated. Even Metal Gear Solid (1998 ) let you skip cutscenes.
If you don't have a cart or disc with this game on it, by all means, download it. It is a wonderful adventure that holds up extremely well. However, Nintendo have re-released this game to death already (almost as bad as Super Mario Bros.). Plus, many people, like myself, who have played it to death already.

Some people just don't have opinions. Like bundle85.
bundle85 must really love MovieTome and agree with every review we've ever written! What other reason could bundle85 possibly have for not rating a single film?
