Reviews around storyline (4.68 of 5)

  • I just love the storyline and the characters,even though Link, Ganondorf and Zelda have been in all of the Zelda games, but this game is the best.
  • The graphics are good for the late 90s and it has a fabulous storyline
  • The dungeons are beautifully designed, the enemies are diverse, the music is excellent, and the storyline, while fairly simplistic, is great
  • Solid storyline, by far the greatest Zelda game of all time

Reviews around control (4.66 of 5)

  • The controls are absolutely perfect and the targeting system works perfectly for most combat situations
  • The graphics are at near perfection (for the time), the story is great, the controls are incredibly easy to master, and it is fun
  • I've seen several negative reviews on here; most of them mention the controls or the puzzles being too hard
  • Extremley easy to learn, but mastering the art of using youre controls in battle is a little more difficult, but fun.
  • This is one of the few 3rd person games I've played with great controls

Reviews around gameplay (4.63 of 5)

  • This has to be the best game ever made, with good graphics (for n64) and very realistic gameplay
  • It severely drags the gameplay, atmosphere and excitement down and immediately drags the game to a screeching halt having to frequently stop and play these songs on the ocarina
  • The whole sword-in-the-stone thing is very cool, gameplay is easy and fluid, and best of all--fun!The enchanting scenery is just wonderful
  • They're still gorgeous (albeit a tad blurry--don't blame the game, blame the Nintendo64!), even next to newer games on newer systems such as the PlayStation2
  • The gameplay is easy to get used to and becomes second nature as you play through the game

Reviews around graphic (4.51 of 5)

  • "wow, I finished this rather difficult game", then you will go find your PS2 so you can rescue yourself from the bad graphics
  • Terrible graphics, especially compared to the PS Triple's, no voice acting, boring puzzles, and above all, it stars a little fruity fairy boy who wears green panties and never hits on any of the babes in this game
  • This has to be the best game ever made, with good graphics (for n64) and very realistic gameplay
  • First off, this game is very good considering it had very good graphics (for an N64) and sound
  • In other words I'd be willing to forgive this particular shortcoming if the game made up for the choppy/uninspiring graphics in other areas
