The Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening review
CONTAINS: The best Zelda soundtrack since Link 182.

The Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening review
I always thought that nerds on the Internet who wine “it’s all about the gameplay!” when their favorite game gets ripped on for some stupid gimmick or whatever were idiots. Obviously gameplay is the most important aspect of any game, but I…

The Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening DX review
Link explores a new world that is suspiciously similar to the one he usually roams. I'm not complaining.

The Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening DX review
I can't think of a more renowned franchise in video games than The Legend of Zelda. From its classic 8-bit days to its colorful, fluid 3-D adventures of today, Zelda has always presented a world of wonder to gamers. With its perfect…

The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask 3D review
It's the weird experiments like this that make the most lasting impression.

The Legend of Zelda: The Minish Cap review
If you know me well – and, let’s face it, you probably don’t – then you may have picked up that The Legend of Zelda is my favorite videogame franchise of all time, and that, as far as I'm concerned, few other games can even come close to…

The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time review
Isn't it ironic how the "Greatest video game ever made" was supposed to put Nintendo back on top, but instead led them to their inevitable downfall? Despite becoming the most commercially successful Zelda game to date with more than 7…

The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time review
As Nintendo careens toward a purgatorial stasis, a descent fueled by its irrationality as well as its irrelevance, it's impossible to not lament its better days. For the same company who now relies on portable non-games to keep breath in…

The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time / Master Quest review
Every Zelda fan that preordered the Wind Walker was treated to a bonus disk that was sure to excite each and every one of them. The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time Master Quest is a rehash of the N64 classic that touched gamers…

The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time 3D review
Some older games don't age well. This is not one of those games.

The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time 3D review
When I started playing the actual game, though, my perspective changed almost immediately. Link’s prophetic nightmare, the shivering elven boy on the straw mattress, the dying monarch of the forest summoning a fairy and the awkward bump…

The Legend of Zelda: Oracle of Seasons review
Take Dodongo, for example. To defeat this chap, you first have to use the tried and true strategy of feeding him bombs. Then, after he's stunned by the explosion, using the power bracelet, you must pick him up and toss him onto a bed of…

The Legend of Zelda: Phantom Hourglass review
When Nintendo tries something new with the Zelda series, it usually pays off. Moving to three dimensions in Ocarina of Time resulted in what many consider to be the best Zelda game of all time, and experimenting with an ultra-cute…

The Legend of Zelda: Phantom Hourglass review
Things starts how they always start in the Zelda multiverse, with the kidnapping of that dappy bint of a princess whose only point of existence is to be spirited away by dark forces at the start of every new adventure. In a new development…

The Legend of Zelda: Phantom Hourglass review
My professional obligations completed, I forgot about Hourglass. It's easily done because, as I alluded to earlier, it's crap. But now, bollocks to it, I'm going to tell you why.

The Legend of Zelda: Phantom Hourglass review
At its best, Phantom Hourglass is pure fun. The innovative touch controls provide a fresh take on the standard Zelda fare, and that alone was enough to revitalise my dwindling interest in the series.

You Nintendo bastards. You think you can take over the world with your touch screens and your motion-sensitive remotes? This battle against the conventions of gaming has raged on for years, and now look what you’ve done. You’ve dragged…
