Yeah. So play this before you try any of the PS2 games or even MGS4. Also, it's amazing how far MGS:PO is from being the best portable MGS ever.

Ocarina of Time DESERVES to be trumped by some other game, as its not evn the best Zelda game. Both Majora's Mask and Twilight Princess rape it.

No, not really.

The sense of fun and immersion I've had with BioShock has not been felt, ironically, since Ocarina of Time. Since that game's release, I've become much more jaded as a gamer and a person, so for BioShock to really push Ocarina of Time off that nostalgic pedestal I've placed it on for so long is quite a feat. I really am in love with BioShock.

Do you think BioShock will be referred as a classic as much as OOT?

Signs point to NOPE, game wont even be half the classic System Shock 2 was, and I havent even played that!

No it doesn't.

you give the game to some one that hasn't played ether, and I bet they choose TP as the better game. I still like OOT more but TP is better.

Who will be the first site to give the game a douchey review and sour the critical heaven that BIOSHOCK currently resides in?

gamespot gave a 9.0.

personally I think halo 3 has a chance of beating it.

Honestly, I doubt that... while Halo 3 will undoubtedly be a great game, it's still Halo... Bioshock has the whole freshness and new IP factor going for it. And LttP, LA, and the Oracles games rape OOT.

The only bad thing about OoT now is its graphics. Other than that, it's still by far and away the best 3D Zelda. Not to mention it deserves its place up there for bringing Zelda into the 3D world almost flawlessly.

brawndolicious · « **Reply #14 on:** August 21, 2007, 03:41:15 PM »

windwaker had a lot better level design.

I think halo has a chance to do better because it's doing things a lot of things no next-gen game has done but most other sequels like zelda are about the same scale and don't do radical changes.

I heard a rumor that there is a real live conspiracy afoot to stop Bioshock from topping the list.

The overworld is pretty shitty in OoT. It was shitty when the game came out and its still shitty today. OoT is not the best 3d Zelda.

Oh yeah, forgot to mention it needed a bigger overworld.

Still, all things considered, the dungeons, pacing, music and sidequests (the last 3 being things that every Zelda after MM fails at terribly), it's head and shoulders above everything else.

oot had awful, chirpy, lo-fi and poorly instrumented music. wtf, dude!

hyrule field's problem was its complete lack of features, not its size.

if i could re-review it today, i'd probably give oot an 8/10 or less.

Yeah I'm with drinky, the size was fine. There just wasn't shit going on and shit to look for. At least Twilight Princess tried to do something with the overworld.

OoT is a complete unplayable piece of shit, I struggled thorugh it for a few hours as I was told it was really really good but... ugh what a fucking repulsive, boring game. Does absolutley nothing right. (Although the part where you play the Ocarina to the Goron King was pretty funny)

One would assume that might have had something to do with the technical constraints of the system.
