    Excellent game with great graphics and control, the different skills you learn are great and help imensely at some points of the game, for example, the "Mortal Draw" is great for removing the Darknuts' armour while the "Back Slice" is good for when the armour is off. If you are just starting with this series, you will probably enjoy yourself very much.

If you are just starting with this series, you will probably enjoy yourself very much. If you are a Legend of Zelda veteran, you will instantly see the resemblances to Ocarina of Time, But thse ill be more in the story than the graphics. Those are much better than any other 3D Zelda game out there. The action gets greater and greater to an eventual climax...and then the credits begin. This is a game that will surely go far and Zelda fans are sure love it.… Expand

    There is not a single word to describe the latest Zelda. The game is simply a masterpiece. It truly transcends each game in the entire series and stands as the greatest video game of all time.

I guess drinking all that water can do that to you though. I was really excited at the end when Gannon actually DIED. Before we have only seen him turn to stone or vanish. (He turns to stone in Wind Waker. In Ocarina of Time you never see a body. I suppose he runs off and trys to get his strength back. Which after happening he trys to take over hyrule only for it to be flooded and then him imprisoned untill later) It was really amazing to see that when the water leveled out that they actually tried to have him executed. The entire game was simply amazing. I can't stop trembling with excitement for the next installment and an even deadlier foe!… Expand

    Does Twilight Princess have flaws? Well, yes. The graphics are artistically stunning, but there are some issues with the texturing in some areas. The sound is getting a bit old-sounding - there's no reason Nintendo couldn't have recorded a orchestral soundtrack. Plus, Zelda could certainly use some voice acting by now (sans Link, of course.)

    Twilight Princess easily nailed the game of the year. Thats not really the question. The question I really had to ask myself was whether it was the greatest game of all time or not. After alot of soul searching I concluded that Yes, it is by far the greatest game of all time.

    Pros: Better battling than Wind Waker. At least 3x larger world than OoT and less wasted space than WW. Dungeons are much more sophisticated and in depth. Tonics look much better. Love the clawshots. Wolf transformation was cool too. Cons: Miss the Ocarina, Kiroki, ice/fire/light arrows, bombchues, and maybe the Goron Sword/some two handed sword.

Took me 83 hours playing over 14 months, and I enjoyed every minute of it - well, apart from the occassional obligatory ultra-hard boss fights. The best story and characterisations yet in a Zelda game, and lots to see and do and collect and smash. Probably a bit easier than previous Zelda games, but that meant I didn't end up throwing my pad across the room in rage, or scratching my balding head in confusion as to what the hell I was supposed to be doing next. Games are meant to be challenging I know, but fun is more important! The sound and graphics are gorgeous with often mind-bending effects and enormous landscapes, plus highly effective depth-of-field, antialiasing and multitexturing the like I've not seen in a 'cube game before. It's amazing what they manage to squeeze into one mini-DVD disk and out of the console's modest little hardware package, but then the 'cube was always underrated IMHO. As soon as I'd finished the game (shedding a tear at the cutscenes during the credits of course) I wanted to play it all over again... but I might just invest in a Wii so I can appreciate it all the more in glorious widescreen, and have fun fishing with the Wiimote.… Expand

    Twilight Princess is a hallmark in game design, Hyrule is huge, and the people appear to carry out everyday activities, and it looks stunning. She controls are spot on, as they flow nicely with great precision, and the story is decisively darker, and the game benefits greatly from it. Twilight Princess is the best game since Ocarina of Time.

The cutscenes and the music are both absolutley terrific. Several times i found myself having goosebumps due to the sheer brilliance of certain cutscenes. This is the only game that has got to me so intently. Not even other Zelda games can match up to it. The wolf sections and the concept of Twilight are two things that i especially enjoyed alot. On top of all this, it's also got the best graphics and enemy/character design of any game in the series. The main reason for why none of the other Zelda games can match up to TP in my opinion is the lack of story focus. In OoT for example you get a handful of words and then you set out to several temples. Wind Waker had the same problem, cutscenes were too few. The only Zelda game that can somewhat compare to TP would be Majora's Mask.… Expand

I loved the bosses, they were too easy(HATED THAT PART), but they were si freaking fun to fight. I made copies of profiles so that when I wanted to, I could fight them again. They game never seems to bore me. I hope to see more successful Zelda games like this in the future. Great job Nintendo.… Expand

    This is an awesome game, it has some of the strongest dungeons and bosses in the series. Midna is a character you actually care about and the story is great. The game-play is probably the best there has been and the music is as fantastic as always. I recommend this game to anyone who a Game-cube or a Wii.

    It has some flaws that are Zelda-typical mostly, like the overworld in between settlements being a little too empty for its size or that it's too easy - although you can counter the latter by not collecting heart containers from bosses (you can collect them later, they're staying in the boss room forever) or the "3 heart challenge".

    Other than that it's a great Zelda title. The story and storytelling is just as the soundtrack epic, the art style is one of the most enjoyable in this series and the characters are really likeable, too. Especially Midna and her uncommon personality. The dungeons are of high quality and one of them (desert one) is one of my favourites all time. Without making a spoiler, the highlights are the item you get there and the boss fight.

    I wish that there'll be a remake one day correcting the existing flaws like being way too easy and adding more life to the vast overworld. Also improving the graphic to HD. It would truly make this game one of the best Zelda experiences ever.    … Expand

And you can even ride giant boars in some places! It has likely the most breathtaking landscapes and sceneries. One of the largest and most immersive worlds in the series, filled with plenty of secrets. It literally has the best items as well as the easiest & quickest way to equip them. It has many of the best minigames. Most of all it has some of the best characters and Midna is UNDENIABLY the best companion to Link out of all the Zelda games. Best of all you get to turn into a wolf for a long list of reasons and uses that I won't go into. I could go on and on about what I love about this game. This game will truly stand the test of time. And let it be noted that whatever nitpicky problems anyone has with this game, they can expect them to be fixed in the remake.

Some of the bosses in this game are so unbelievably easy. However, this doesn't bug me, since unlike any other Zelda game, these battles were epic and amazing. Sure, they were easy, but I still remembered every single one of them. (Except for the first boss. I don't even remember what it's name was.) Next, the graphics. I love this game, but I enjoyed Wind Waker's graphics a lot more. Twilight Princess tries to look realistic, but some characters look like they either came from a certain anime, or they look like they came from a cartoon. Alright, now let's discuss the positives. First, the overworld. This is my favorite Hyrule field in the series. The music that plays in the background while you're in this field is amazing. Also, the dungeon design is arguably the best in the series, as some of the puzzles can really stump you. Even the first dungeon is amazing! The soundtrack can either be atmospheric or adventurous. Despite criticizing the graphics earlier, I really liked them and I think it's very good for the Gamecube. And the story, it's arguably the best story in any Zelda game I've ever played.

    This game despite being a game that I love a lot has a lot of things that disappoints me:

    Firstly, there's something I dislike about this game particularly and that thing being furry link wolf. It is ruining the gameplay.

    The wolf cannot: Buy items, use items and talk to civilians.

    Midna that imp sounds like a retarded teenager hate mongering **** Imagine Hillary Clinton, that's who Midna is. She only thinks for herself and nobody else. The two unique things that make her "likable" is the pity you have for her after getting rekt by a psycho called Zant and the spicy hot girl nearby the end of the game. I honestly prefered navi, it was trying to be helpful.

    Zant is as likable as Ghirahim, psychotic as **** to the point of being a character good for the trash. Making psychotic characters as villain won't make them good villain dear Nintendo.

    In the other hand, Zant has an excellent backstory, better than Zelda's despite being the centre of attention in the franchise (Note that even Impa has a more interesting backstory than Zelda so it's not that big of an exploit).

    Well, that's pretty much it with the problems. It has in the other hand too many pros to get anything else besides 10/10 notably more items than the previous Zeldas.    … Expand

Learning the different sword techniques is also awesome-the swordplay in this game is the best in any Zelda game to date. Gameplay is great, and the soundtrack is even good. A lot of people hated the wolf sections but they only make up a small fraction of the game, and are honestly pretty fun in my opinion. Midna is also the best companion in a Zelda game - she has a deep back story and isn’t annoying af like Navi in OOT. If there was one gripe with this game the only thing I could think of is the whole twilight story that covers Hyrule during the first part of the game-just seemed kinda vague and not very “scary” like it is supposed to be. If you’re a fan of a decently long Zelda game with top notch dungeons, great gameplay, and a ton of replay value, pick this game up immediately, you won’t be disappointed!… Expand

    I am a 27 year old man that teared up many times throughout this game, Link's journey is dark, hopeless at times but the spirit of The Hero is ever strong here and I enjoyed every second. Midna was a delight and extremely useful, the way you not only use her for fast travel but traversal is truly incredible work and design.

Midna was a delight and extremely useful, the way you not only use her for fast travel but traversal is truly incredible work and design. The combat is deep, the optional movesets you get can turn you into an unstoppable force against even the toughest of creatures and warriors. Faron, Lanayru, and Eldin are truly impressive works of art and you can absolutely get lost in this world if you wanted to. Every tool you get small or large has a purpose and are used in a very memorable way when it comes to the dungeon bosses. The dungeons are the best I've seen, every single one of them has the perfect amount of design and detail, none of them feel poorly made or a needless chore to get through. All in all I cannot say enough about this game but PLEASE play it if you have not, I can't believe I waited this long to do so! Twilight Princess is a 10/10 masterpiece!… Expand

    In my opinion, the best Zelda experience, perfectioning the Ocarina of Time formula.
    Beautiful dark art style, nice soundtrack and a great narrative. Probably with the most challenging puzzles of the saga. The combat system gets more enjoyable as you progress through the story.
    Simply one of the best videogames of history, will leave you marked.

    How can I describe this game, it is extremely beautiful, with the protagonist (Link) giving his life for his friends an act of bravery, its design, its music, it is simply beautiful.

    It is not the best zelda game (in my opinion it is the second behind majora's mask) but it is very underrated, the reviews for this are very mixed and a lot of people dislike this game. It is probably bc of people wanting a good zelda game for the gamecube, bc after MM and OOT the hype for a new zelda game in this powerful for the time console was huge and then windwaker got released whichIt is not the best zelda game (in my opinion it is the second behind majora's mask) but it is very underrated, the reviews for this are very mixed and a lot of people dislike this game.

    The most cinematic Zelda game there has ever been. Combat is fun and there is so many items to choose from. The story and journey was a masterclass of design. The dungeons are up there with the very best in the series- Arbiters ground and Snowpeak ruins are certainly up there. The final boss fight at the end is the best final boss fight I have ever played - essentially a 4 phase bossThe most cinematic Zelda game there has ever been.

The dungeons are up there with the very best in the series- Arbiters ground and Snowpeak ruins are certainly up there. The final boss fight at the end is the best final boss fight I have ever played - essentially a 4 phase boss fight. The open world is also great and vast but can feel somewhat empty at times. Also although this does make the game feel more epic the start of the game can be quite slow and the killing shadow bugs part of the game can also be annoying. Also there is a vast enemy variety to fight against. Overall a masterpiece of a game.… Expand

    Es un muy buen juego qué te transmite una obscuridad y creo que es el juego más oscuro de la saga mucho más que majora's mask y tiene partes muy buenas como el templo del tiempo.

    Es una maravilla, historia sombría pero inmersiva.
    Una obra maestra que ha envejecido excelentemente

    It's still the most cinematic, engrossing Zelda we've ever played, and as such, deserves nothing but the absolute highest recommendation. Flaws are present, sure, but we'll burn our entire library of games before we say Twilight Princess is anything but incredible.

    But the moment the opening symphony plays until the concluding credits, all fear and doubt quickly vanishes like the cool whispering of an autumn's breeze. Though not flawless, Nintendo have once again demonstrated masterful craftsmanship, challenging design and imaginative artistry.

    This game is more or less the latest version of a realm that has been long established and already seen. Yes, the story is darker, longer, and more character driven than anything before it. Yes, the dungeons and sidequests are remarkably well crafted. That doesn't mean that both seasoned Zelda fans and newcomers alike will enjoy the lacking difficulty and the other small problems that plague the game.
