Advantages Zelda- Back To It's Best! Great Graphics, Gameplay + storyline!

Disadvantages That you don't really get to settle down + bosses a little too easy.

It's here, Zelda finally returns to their old type of games, with Twilight Princess! This was the first game I bought with the wii, and it proved a good move, after completing it this morning I decided to spread the word here, with descriptions of graphics, gameplay, tips etc.

*WHY WII?
Zelda Twilight Princess is available on both Wii and Gamecube, however is there really much difference? Well there is some, as you move the nunchuck from side to side to do a ''spin attack,'' you swing the controller around to use your sword normally. Also, the nunchuck enables you to use your shield in attack, though most of your play involves pressing A, B, directions or Z, it makes the experience more active and involves the user more.

*CONTROLS

Well, when I first started playing Zelda, I found it to be a little unusual as I was used to playstation controllers, but after about an hour of playing you will find yourself getting the jist of it and enjoying yourself. They have adapted it from the days of Ocarina of Time, with easier to use controls, especially when changing weapons or suits. Naturally, as the game involves motion sensing, it is pretty simple to use, although the nunchuck analog stick can occasionally be difficult to use.

*SET UP
You start out in a village called ''Ordon Village'' where you work honestly and humbly, occasionally helping to herd some goats and completing chores for the local folk. The graphics here are a real class apart from Ocarina of Time, with no lags as you travel around. After only completing a couple of chores, you are introduced to evil, as some ''Twilight creatures'' smash into Ordon and take Link's friend Ilia and some local children. Surprise, surprise it's your job to eventually save them and much more. The locations you will visit are vast, with some you may remember from ''Ocarina of Time,'' such as a redeveloped ''Temple of Time,'' a stunning ''Hyrule Castle,'' etc. However, while playing older games, I noted boredom with constantly having to run around for long lengths of time, you can warp around locations with your wolf, helped along by the ''Twilight Princess'' Midna, a handy aide, looking to restore order in her Twilight Realm. With sword and shield in hand, you embark on a fierce adventure to conquer evil, in the form of twilight creatures, and bosses, with a final battle against the seemingly recurrent boss, Ganondorf. With a total of 9 temples you won't find yourself completing this quickly, though you won't get bored either as it consistently ups in gear as you progress.

*GAMEPLAY
The gameplay really is the thing that has always stood out for me, when it came to Zelda games, this was no different. The complex puzzles boggle the mind, but when you actually work out what to do, you feel proud, otherwise if you find yourself stuck you can always search on Google, for 'Zelda Twilight Princess Faq' to see hints and tips. This game would take most around 50-60 hours in total to complete and there is always more to do than just fighting the bosses, you also have to collect heart pieces, find poes & gather weapons along with mini-games such as fishing, balloon game etc.
