ZELDA AOL HAS THE BEST MUSIC IN THE SERIES.
I've only played 3 of them but I'll rank them.1. Ocarina of Time2. A Link To The Past3. Majora's MaskI should pick up Wind Waker so I can play it on Wii when it comes out. I've put off buying a cube for months now because it's not worth it. I'll spend $150 more so I can play all the cube games plus Wii games.
Ocarina of Time. Hands down. I was kind of late on playing this though. I started playing it for the first time exactly one year ago. Man, everyday after school, I'd come home and play it for a few hours (Im only 16). I finished it, and man, it wsa the greatest game ever.
This was fun to watch and I can't wait to see them cover the rest of the series.Of the Zelda titles I've played, I'll rank them thusly:6. Majora's Mask5. Ocarina of Time4. Zelda II: The Adventure Of Link3. A Link To The Past2. The Wind Waker1. The Legend of ZeldaI ranked OoT & MM last since I played them as "you have to play this" type of games and I didn't finish either. 1-4 are the only ones I truly explored on my own and enjoyed fully. I can see OoT & MM being quite good, but after playing Wind Waker and then seeing what is coming with Twilight Princess, they just didn't seem as cool as they'd been made out to be. Maybe it was the graphics of the N64 holding me back, I dunno.
OK, so, no GBA Zelda titles at all on any list?Did the GBA Zelda installments really suck that bad??
I enjoyed Oracles of Seasons/Ages and Link's Awakening, but I really couldn't get into Minish Cap at all. In fact, I hated it. I never got around to finishing that one or the Original NES Zelda. I've beaten all the others though, and would have to say that Ocarina of Time and Majora's Mask are tied on my 1st place spot.
Looking back on the series I was thinking that I had the most fun playing through Windwaker out of all of them, but Ocarina is the only one I've ever gone back to play through again, so maybe that's saying something.
zelda is my favorite video game franchise by a hylian mile. I started with Zelda II and that one will always have a special place in my heart, even though I have yet to beat it. Of the Zeldas I played, I'd rank:1) The Legend of Zelda (2 quests!!! this game taught us what 'epic' means)2) Oot (beat it with every item. then beat it with only 3 hearts and no deaths and no heart dublin magic. yeah its easy, but im braggin anyways. maybe i should try to beat it with 3 hearts, no deaths, and no bottles?!?)3) Zelda II (so tough and so amazing)4) A Link to the Past (only played on my comp though)5) Link's awakening oh, and since no one else has said it: Well EXCUUUUUUSE ME, Princess!:-D
Is it even possible to play it with only 3 hearts for the entire game? Don't you get a full heart when you beat a boss of the temples? Or am I just thinking of A Link To The Past?
