IT COMETH

Allow me to revise my list of EPIC VIDEO GAME COMMERCIALS. Okay... done. It's almost here. The biggest, baddest, game of the year is almost here! Okay, I know Skyrim was just released (haven't gotten to play it, looks AWESOME!) and Modern Wellfare 3, but this game... this game is The Legend of Zelda. This game is the beginning of THE GREATEST VIDEO GAME SERIES OF ALL TIME. Did you not just watch that commerical? Do you not undersrtand the pure scope of this game?! Oh. I'm sorry. I didn't mean to go on a whole rage-fest right then, its just... I don't know if this game has as much hype as it should. At least, it doesn't in my neck of the woods. That is, where pubescent teens stay up all night playing C.O.D. Other than the fact that this is a new Zelda game, there's a lot of exciting aspects. Let's take a brief look. Okay, so there's the all new Wii MotionPlus controls for swordplay. Unlike previous games where you simply press B till the enemy dies, you must swing the Master Sword in various ways to defeat various enemies. Also, there's the sheer scope of this game. 50-100 hours of gameplay at the least can go into this puppy, making it the biggest Zelda game EVER. Also, new elements such as a more RPG style weapon purchasing system and a fres new take on weapon interface add more excitement. But this is all technical. Let's get to the juicy bits. STORYLINETIME! We all know Nintendo has denied there being one, single Zelda timeline. But did you not just watch the commercial (if you haven't caught the las two hints it means you need to WATCH THE COMMERCIAL)? "This is where it all begins." THIS IS THE FIRST GAME IN THE ZELDA SERIES (storyline wise). So that means, even if you know NOTHING about Zelda, you can enjoy this game to the fullest. Well, you can do that in any other Zelda game, but this one's probably on top. Also, the storyline of this game is VERY different from any Zelda to date. First of all, no Ganon. There's that blatant flamer Ghirahim instead (just looking at him makes me want to cut him in half). Also, Link's a knight in training, which is pretty cool. He and Zelda are childhood friends, which is also slightly different. I could go on... but you get the point. SKYWARD SWORD IS RELEASED ONE WEEK FROM NOW so be expecting a review quite soon. Thanks for your time!
