Nah, it doesn't. The game really picks up after the Water Temple. Some of the subsequent dungeons will be truly creative when is comes to exceeding Zelda standards. Like I said before, the Arbiter's Grounds is a personal favorite of mine because of the weapon you pick up, and the boss fight following it is fun as ALL hell.

And if you ever played Ocarina of Time, you'll be happy to know that

Spoiler:

I say that you go on and kick this game's ass, because it really does get better from that point on in the Water Temple.

I think the only thing that's ever been confirmed, I think by Aonuma, about the Zelda timeline is that there is, in fact, two different ones.

When Link goes back to relive his childhood at the end of OoT, and ceases to exist in the "Adult" timeline, two different timelines are created. One with Link, and one without Link.

The Wind Waker timeline would be the one without Link, as it's stated at the beginning of the game that the Hero of Time disappears and is never seen again.

I know Zelda timeline stuff is dumb, and talked to death, but I really do love to go through tiny little things about the games in detail to find out where they could possibly fit. It's really fun.

I would have to concur.

The Legend of Zelda: Well I only played this when I was young and I was never able to find the second dungeon. I know, sad, but I was only four or five. That and watching my brother pass it was my only experience with this game.

Zelda II The Adventure of Link: I never actually got to playing this game much since I thought it was really terrible, so I really can't say much for this game. It sucks because I would like to pass it just to know the story.

The Legend of Zelda A Link to the Past: I never played this game, but I plan to in the summer.

The Legend of Zelda Link's Awakening: I never played or owned this game. Damn!

The Legend of Zelda Ocarina of Time: I think this is one of the best Zelda games ever, it is just such an awesome classic. I passed this game in 2007 and in my first play through I managed to complete everything in the game even all the side quest. I don't know which game is better OoT, WW, or TP. There just so damn great. But I know I'll leave a slot open for this game again in the summer.

The Legend of Zelda Majora's Mask: I started this game in 2007 right after TP, and OoT, but I never actually got to finishing it. All I needed was the last dungeon, but before passing it of course I wanted to complete all the side things and wanted to get all the objects too. The thing that got me submitted was that annoying Kafei mission, since then that game has been on hiatus, but It'll be passed later this year.

The Legend of Zelda Oracle of Seasons: I never played or owned this game. Damn!

The Legend of Zelda Oracle of Ages: I never played or owned this game. Damn!

The Legend of Zelda Four Swords: I have this game but I never played it and have one question. Can this game be played on the Gameboy player for the Gamcube?

The Legend of Zelda Wind Waker: I never got to pass this game and the last time I probably played this was in 2006 but I guarantee that this will be passed in the summer. I love the cell shaded style, It gets me kinda mad that it went on to the DS and doesn't look as nice but hopefully the 3DS can handle better graphics to make more cell shaded adventures for Link and keep the more realistic titles on the consoles. I also like how Link's eyes give you clues on where to go and I also like the fighting style and moves and damn I just want to play it again!

The Legend of Zelda Four Swords Adventure: I really loved this game and it was so fun playing with my older brother and sister. It was always funny fighting for treasures and rupees and seeing who was the best at the end. I also liked the Tingle mini games which also made a funny inside joke that stuck with Tingle since then. It was a good adventure with lot's to offer.

The Legend of Zelda The Minish Cap: This game was a very good Gameboy adventure that is a must have for GBA owners along with (Honorable Mention) Metroid Fusion and Zero Mission. I worked on this game for a while because I kept getting stuck from not paying too much attention to what was going on and for not playing it sometimes which got kinda annoying. The Vaati boss fight was the most annoying and hard. I'm surprised I actually beat him. I'm going to have to replay this game over the summer too so I could complete all the side quest.

The Legend of Zelda Twilight Princess: This game is really awesome! It just keeps getting annoying how it makes me think to hard about the connection of OoT and TP. Especially that stalfos guy that teaches Link his moves. He was said to be one of the heroes that put Ganondorf away and he also has Link's sword and shield from Majora's Mask. But this game is so great and has some good boss fights and dungeons. I'm also one of the few people that actually enjoyed the wolf parts of the game.

The Legend of Zelda Phantom Hourglass: This was such a great DS Zelda adventure. I never thought there would be a Zelda game on the DS before. This is one of the few DS games that actually has quality like Super Mario 64 DS. I liked that they brought back a fairy for toon Link. I also like the originality it had. It also had pretty clever puzzles and dungeons.

The Legend of Zelda Spirit Tracks: I do own this game but I haven't played it yet. This will be my first game of the summer. I hope it's going to be one great adventure, and I'm kinda happy they pulled away from the whole water thing.

Yeah me too. But in the beginning of Wind Waker it does state "This is but one of the many Legends". But yeah I understand what you're talking about, It bugs me so much to not know the actual time line or if there even is one at all.

Maybe that's because he's like, dead by that time.

Besides, isn't Wind Waker set a few centuries after OoT? Plus, I always felt that TP was OoT Adult Link's timeline.

I dunno, maybe it's just the Hylians being naive about it.

The legend says he disappears right after Ganon is defeated, not over time. Which fits into what happens in OoT perfectly.

And yes, it is set long after OoT, why does that make a difference? And no, it's commonly believed that TP is child Link's timeline.

*XERO* · 05-28-2010, 02:50 PM

Either way, it still gets confusing to some people.

*Dr. Doom* · 05-28-2010, 03:35 PM

This is all making me want to play a Zelda game very badly. As much as I really should go back and play OoT or WW again, or beat Majora's Mask in the first place, I have a feeling I'd just end up playing Twilight Princess again.

LOL, I feel that way too.

*Samhain* · 05-29-2010, 02:09 PM

Shockingly, I have never gotten to even play a Zelda game. I will be getting a Wii soon, recomendations?

*XERO* · 06-01-2010, 07:39 PM

Hell, I'd play for you if I could, TMB.

Dude you should check out

Metroid Prime Trilogy
The Legend of Zelda Twilight Princess
Super Mario Galaxy
Super Mario Galaxy 2
Super Smash Bros Brawl
New Super Mario bros Wii

These are like must haves for the Wii. But It's your choice you know.

*XERO* · 06-01-2010, 08:15 PM

And if you stock up on Wii points, I say you should start off on Ocarina of Tme.

Zelda II: The Adventure of Link gets so much crap, and of course that had to be the first Zelda game I ever owned.

I was a late bloomer and got an NES Action Set (the one with the Super Mario Bros./Duck Hunt cartridge and the red NES Zapper) in late 1989, and then asked for Zelda II for Christmas, mainly because of the Zelda cartoon in the Super Mario Bros. Super Show. It was a whim decision, really. A lot of people were saying it sucked, but I still enjoyed it. Though the only part that really irked me was fighting Thunderbird in the Great Palace. I was so happy when I finally got rid of him.

I got the first Zelda game in 1991 for my birthday. After that, I got all the other Zelda games in the order which they were released. Of course I didn't bother with the CD-i games, and I'll just pretend they don't exist.

My best Zelda memories would be with Zelda II, since that was the first game in the series I ever owned. Then there was Link's Awakening and Ocarina of Time. All the other games are good too, but those are the three that stand out in my mind.
