[Gamespy - Wii] Zelda Twilight Princess - OUTSTANDING

[bluR]

CINCO DE CINCO

http://wii.gamespy.com/wii/legend-of.../745573p1.html

We all know that the game started out life as a GameCube project, and this much is still evident in the final Wii product. While it might not have the graphical grunt behind it offered by the likes of the Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3, there's no doubt in my mind that Nintendo has once again crafted a video game that will be remembered for years to come. Link's back and his adventure on the new shiny Wii hardware is nothing short of an instant classic.

I can easily see the playtime rising to the 60-hour mark if you try to accomplish everything that the game has to offer -- and trust me, you'll want to. Given the epic size of the game, it's important to note that there's very little redundancy.

I'm happy to report that the Wii Remote and the Nunchuk do an incredibly admirable job of making the game a lot of fun to play. In fact, I'd go as far as to say that this is a preferable method of controlling the game than a regular joypad. Movement, exploration and combat are highly accurate and if you fail or die, it's not the system's fault, but rather your own.

In the end, there's no way that The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess disappoints. It's an excellent addition (and homage to Ocarina) to the franchise, and you'll have an enormous amount of fun playing it from start to finish. Get over the fact that the Wii's hardware is simply not as powerful as the other next-gen machines and get into the fact that Twilight Princess is one of the best games you'll play this year.

It's ultimately fantastic.

mas.. ZELDA EH ZELDA!
aheiuaeuia

se for analizar grafico por grafico dae fica "injusto" (em termos neh? eh next-gen e tinha gente q esperava mto mais do wii)
mas paciencia ele nao eh um xbox-360 =/

a versao cubica sai em dezembro..
dia 02 ou 12.. algo assim..

[Ronca_Lapor]

hehehe

eu vim acompanhando o wii-brasil.com que esta sempre mostrando videos e tal

realmente o jogo esta muito foda

Zelda: OoT eh realmente foda, mal posso esperar para jogar no virtual console

mas paciencia ele nao eh um xbox-360 =/

se zelda pertencesse a M$, o x360 ia para o espaco em vendas


ateh joguei um pouquinho de Kameo: elements of power da M$ para x360(acho que eh esse o nome heauhEU) eh legalzinho, mais nada comparado a Zelda

[Onichi]

O dia que Zelda, MGS e Final Fantasy forem exclusividade de um só VG, com certeza os outros não vão vender nem 1% do que venderiam ;p Independente das pessoas gostarem de um ou de outro, a quantidade de fãs que vai atrás de um VG só por causa desses 3 títulos é IMENSA. Acho díficil essa exclusividade acontecer em breve, mas ainda acho possível.

Eu, por exemplo, sempre vou atrás de consoles da Sony por causa de Final Fantasy. O fato de jogar os outros, gostar e começar a pagar pau pro psx/ps2 é consequencia de ter comprado pelos FFs ;P

E, repito, danem-se os gráficos. Ocarina of Time ainda é o melhor e eu ainda jogo ocasionalmente depois de ~8 anos.

btw pessoal, sabem onde tem video ou fotos de hands-on? Com spoilers mesmo, fotos de boss e cia. Eu vi um cara falando que já tem foto do rosto do Ganon na net e etc.

[bluR]

sim..
tem foto do ganon se eu nao me engano mesmo..
mas nao to lembrando onde..

e po..
o melhor zelda eh o "a link to the past"
ott vem depois desse heheh
fala serio.. alttp eh o mais phodastico hahah

[Onichi]

Os dois são excelentes... Meu problema com o Lttp é que na época que eu joguei eu não entendi porcaria nenhuma e detestei ;p só depois de jogar o OoT (e compreender) é que eu fui jogar esse. Realmente, jogão, mas não me marcou tanto =p

E eu quero ver o Ganon omg

[Ronca_Lapor]

odeio FF

lutas por turno sux

10 de 10! OMG!

You see, nearly everything about this game is downright perfect. It is undoubtedly the greatest Zelda game to date… in fact, it completely eclipses most other Zelda games. However, visually—at least in terms of textures—it is indeed a GameCube game. An extremely pretty GameCube game, yes, but it still seems less next-gen and more like the epitome of GameCube achievements. The problem is that the rest of the game is so superbly executed—so masterfully designed—that it totally overshadows nearly any slight concern regarding visual prowess.

The entire experience is just thoroughly Zelda from start to finish, and it’s the best Zelda you’ll have ever played to date.

Apart from the obvious advantage with respect to aiming, however, the Wii controller also just feels more comfortable in your hands. Even after playing for ten to twelve hours straight, I hardly experienced any fatigue (apart from the mental variety) and I never knew a hint of the carpal tunnel or soreness that is common when playing for such extended sessions with a normal controller. The entire control scheme just works, and it feels more natural than you probably expect.

But what good is an adventure game with great control if it doesn’t have a riveting storyline supplementing the action? Thankfully, Twilight Princess also has the most involving (and unpredictable) Zelda storyline to date. Part of this can be attributed to the fact that so many more major gameplay sequences take place outside of the game’s dungeons this time around

The dungeons are also overflowing with elements of prodigious design. I can confidently say that, all else held constant, Twilight’s dungeons are my favorite of the series. The level of design expertise and the sheer sense of creativity that pervades their environments is simply unparalleled in all of gaming. Massive, multistoried rooms mingle with cramped, interconnected passageways in such a way as to both bewilder and astonish the player.

If you think you’ve seen Zelda, this game will redefine your expectation.

The balancing is excellent, and the experience is among the most imaginative in all of modern videogames.

And then there are the bosses. Twilight Princess includes some of the most intense and inventive boss fights in franchise—and occasionally, gaming—history. Some of the battles are so uniquely climactic that they are actually reminiscent of something out of Shadow of the Colossus.

In terms of difficulty, Twilight Princess is harder than Ocarina of Time and quite a bit more challenging than The Wind Waker. More than anything, however, the battles are simply more interesting because they are more unique and unpredictable.

essa eu nao entendi..
eu achei o windwalker MTO mas MTO facil.. (alem de meio chato )
terminei sem um item e com apenas uma fileira de coracao e menos da metade da outra fileira.. haha

During your adventure, you’ll trek through all sorts of vast environments, from deserts, to forests, to snowy mountain peaks. The various environments all play host to a wide variety of their own unique creatures—and combined, they make up the largest and most diverse assortment of enemies in any Zelda game

By now, it should be obvious that Nintendo hasn’t skimped on content here. This is undoubtedly the most robust and dynamic Zelda to date, and yet remarkably it never seems as though you’re playing through “filler” content. Everywhere you go, creativity abounds, new characters come into play, and new secrets and forms of gameplay await. It’s a world filled with imagination and wonder, and it always feels like Zelda.

It isn’t just the characters, though, that give this game its emotional strength… Twilight Princess is hands-down the most dramatic and cinematic Zelda game to date. Of course, there’s still no voice acting, and Link is still never seen uttering a word, but the cut scenes and situational material convey a much darker, more profound Zelda than we’re used to. If you’re an ardent follower of the series, you’ll find yourself shocked and impressed by the intensity and creativity of the story and how it is portrayed.

The game is also loaded with polish. The sound effects and audio are accurate right down to the slish-slosh or clink-clank of footsteps in the snow or on metal grating.

Music fanatics will also appreciate the compositional quality of Twilight Princess’ soundtrack—it’s easily the best of the series (I know you’re beginning to hear that phrase repeated a lot, and there’s a reason for that). The various tunes are memorable and appropriate to their context; the music really helps to make the game. There are plenty of returning themes, as well—probably more than you expect, in fact—and most of them have been cleverly incorporated into newer tunes that are generally even better than their originals on every level.

apesar de ainda ser MIDI ahieaiuhui

The other, and probably more prominent, point of contention is the graphical presentation. Let’s get this straight: there is no denying that Twilight Princess looks like a GameCube game at heart. While the environments are indeed huge and pop-in is entirely non-existent, they’re still decorated by frequently blurry textures and absolutely zero pixel shading effects or anything else that can be used to disguise lacking detail. There’s also no denying that if you’ve got a nice television, even with the considerably more attractive progressive scan picture quality, you will notice these glaring imperfections. In other words, technologically, Twilight Princess’ visuals aren’t even on the same level as its Xbox 360 adventure game in-law, The Elder Scrolls: Oblivion.

o esperado.. hehehe

But there’s good news to all of this. Sure, Twilight Princess looks dated on the textural front. But thankfully, it’s at the top of the list when it comes to art style. Few games approach the sheer beauty of some of Twilight Princess’ more elaborate environments.

The animation is great, as well. The various characters and enemies (and Link, too, of course) move with a fluidity and naturalness that gives them a true sense of life. Hyrule Castle Town is literally bustling with activity (even though you can’t interact with most of the passersby), quite unlike any town scene we have witnessed so far in the Zelda universe. There are even some very pretty graphical effects: light from the flames in your lantern flickers throughout the corridors around you, ice bears the reflection of objects above it, and the water effects are gorgeous. In spite of its technical deficiencies, it’s undeniable that Twilight Princess is a game built with meticulous attention to detail and excellent artistic direction.

The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess is among the longest traditional adventure games ever created. The game will easily last most players 60 to 70 hours for the main quest alone; count in side quests and the collection of all Heart Pieces, Poe Souls, and Golden Insects, and you’ve got a game that could conceivably approach 100 hours in length. Keep in mind that, in contrast to the typical approach to game lengths, these numbers are all very accurate. Unless you’re a Zelda master or you skip all optional content, there’s just no way you’ll be completing this game in anything under 60 hours your first time through.

I haven’t been this addicted to a game in a long time. True, I’ve had to dedicate nearly every waking hour (and even some that wouldn’t normally be considered “waking”) over the past six days to playing this game in preparation for this review, but I probably would have been similarly glued to the Nintendo Wii even if I didn’t have a career obligation to meet. Twilight Princess’ gameplay is so scrupulously tweaked, the experience so carefully balanced, that nearly everything about the game is a joy to behold. While it does start off a bit slow, once you get into the thick of things (around a few hours in), you won’t want to put the controller down. I wish you luck if you purchase this game and you have a job, a family, and some form of responsibility over the next week or so following your purchase. Do the responsible thing: quit your job, put your family on hold, and throw out all your responsibilities so that you can experience the next magnificent chapter in The Legend of Zelda universe (that was meant to be a joke… sort of).

some people are concerned primarily about its contentious graphical presentation; the sometimes-blurry textures. Do they hurt the overall appearance of the game? Yes. Perhaps the most important question, however, is whether they hurt the game enough to place it below the status of other “ten out of ten” legendary games. Here, the answer is a resounding “no.” The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess is one of the greatest videogames ever created. It isn’t perfect—no game can make that claim—however, Twilight Princess is head and shoulders above nearly every other game I have ever played. It’s indubitably better than Ocarina of Time. It blows away The Wind Waker. And it has a sense of personality and careful balance that instill the player with a serious drive to complete it—something that many other very long adventure games, such as Oblivion, lack.
This is the first game that I have ever awarded a 10 in my six years as a reviewer, and for good reason. The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess is one of the defining videogames of our time. It is unquestionably one of the finest games ever released, and it is one that any gamer should experience regardless of the circumstance.

Pareceu um pouco parcial, mas não mentirosa (a review) ;P

E, bem, tá aí. No mínimo, tá no mesmo nível do MIGHTY Ocarina. Só falta um Water Temple nele

IGN REVIEW
http://wii.ign.com/articles/746/746691p1.html

9.5 de 10 OMG

bom
o review da ign tem bastante coisa igual ao do gamerz-edge
entao nao vo ficar quotando se nao vai ficar mto repetitivo..

vo por algumas coisinhas a respeito do controle..
pra realmente nao se ter duvidas e tal...

Our arms weren't aching after more than 50 hours of play time. We weren't out of breath. In contrast, we found ourselves much more immersed in the experience of combat, as simulating a sword swipe is simply more engaging and therein more satisfying than pressing a button.

Furthermore, the advantages of the Wii remote become blindingly clear when Link uses projectile weapons. Whether the hero is armed with the Gale Boomerang, the Slingshot, the Hookshot or a great new staff whose power we won't spoil, targeting with the pointer is so far and away better than using an analog stick that the latter feels archaic and broken by comparison. The Wii remote opens up a level of speed and accuracy never before experienced in a Zelda title and you will within a matter of hours be able to ride Epona through Hyrule Field while delivering fatal bow-and-arrow headshots to ground-based and airborne foes. To the point: this new method of control obliterates the former one and there is no going back.

Twilight Princess is a GameCube port and therefore not wholly indicative of what we can expect visually from truly ground-up Wii titles.

ainda existe um poco de força dentro daquela caixinha estilosa..
mas nem tanto haha

Then again, this was originally a GCN title and that truth is visible, too. Some of the textures, particularly those skinning the admittedly immense Hyrule Field, are blurry and even ugly. Nintendo also has an unfortunate tendency to frame cinematics with blurry structures and other objects in the background, which detracts from the presentation. Beyond the low-resolution make-up of some characters and locations, though, we honestly don't have too many complaints, which is quite the feat given that we're self-proclaimed graphics junkies.

Twilight Princess is must-see, must-play and must-own entry into the series that proves over and over again why Nintendo is the best developer in the world.

The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess is, in my opinion, the greatest Zelda game ever created and one of the best launch titles in the history of launch titles [...] It is also one of the finest games I have ever played. The experience is made better and not worse on Wii. The Wii remote and nunchuk add accuracy and speed to exploration and combat for a heightened sense of immersion.

bom..
acho q tah mais doq claro..
essa zelda..
eh..
apenas..
ÉPICO!
PHODASTICO!
INCRIVEL!

EU QUEROOOOO!

GAMESPOT REVIEW

8.8 de 10 - GREAT \o/

once you get over the rush of excitement from a big, new Zelda game having finally arrived, it's hard not to feel a tinge of disappointment--there's a very noticeable lack of evolution here, which makes aspects of the game seem more dated than classic. Even so, there isn't much out there that compares to Twilight Princess, except for the Zelda games that have come before it.

uma aproximacao bem diferente dos outros reviews..

But normally you can just keep on shaking the Wii Remote like a maniac and come out on top against most enemies. There's no finesse to the way the Wii Remote is used, and at times you'll wish that you could just hit a button to swing the sword instead of dealing with all the motion-sensing nonsense. This is especially true in the rare cases that require you to time your sword swings properly, as well as once you start learning a few extra moves, like the shield bash, which is done by shoving the Nunchuk controller forward. Most of the time, performing this move resulted in a spin attack. The combat controls using the Wii Remote may feel somewhat different from past games, but it doesn't draw you into the experience any more than using a standard controller would, and at worst, it's imprecise.

ai ai ai nintendo! ou sera.. ai ai ai gamespot?
soh vai saber quando vc mesmo testar

The Wii was designed with relatively modest graphical capabilities, at least from a technical perspective. So if you spend a lot of time trying to pick apart the visuals of Twilight Princess, you'd notice plenty of low-res textures and jagged edges. But that would be missing the point. Twilight Princess is an excellent-looking game due to some terrific art design. Much has already been said about the art style reverting back to a more mature or realistic look after Wind Waker took the series in a decidedly cartoonlike direction. While there's nothing terribly "mature" about this T-rated game, it looks absolutely great from an artistic perspective. The world itself offers the sort of variety you'd naturally expect from a fantasy game, with everything from lakes to deserts to dungeons, but it's when you start seeing the twilight realm that the game really takes off, visually.

Objectively speaking, it's still a little disappointing that the series hasn't evolved much at all with this latest installment. You'll almost certainly enjoy the game for its terrific puzzles, colorful characters, and compelling story, but at some point the feeling of nostalgia crosses the line and holds this game back from being as unbelievably good as some of its predecessors. So as impressive of a game as it is, Twilight Princess seems like it could have been so much more with a few presentational updates and more effective and interesting uses of the Wii's unique control scheme. But even without those things, Twilight Princess is a great game that stays extremely true to the Zelda franchise's past. That's excellent news for fans of the series, who'll find in Twilight Princess a true-blue Zelda game with updated visuals, some new twists, plenty of challenging puzzles, and a faithful dedication to the series' roots.
