Zelda






This is a screenshot from Zelda: Twilight Princess, due out this Christmas. I CAN'T WAIT. After all, didn't I play Zelda: The Windwaker two or three times straight through? And the new graphic design is so incredibly lush and grown-up. I loved the design of the first game, too, but it was definitely more kid-oriented, as you can see in that second picture below. Still, great stuff and totally addicting. You basically get to be a boy-hero running his own animated feature. Point him at a tree and he'll climb it. Leap into the ocean and he'll swim. Bring out your sword and start hacking: you'll wreak ecological havoc in moments. Plus you get to save the world. What more could you ask for in 90 hours of playing time?
