Chaos Project

The North America release was today.

I'm only an hour into it cause I have to share it with my brother. :<_<: Anyway, I think it rocks.

What do you guys think?

Looks good, going to get it for Christmas.

same. sounds like a great game.

I'm buying it tomorrow :).

WANT.

Alright, so apparently SS has a huge impact on the Zelda timeline. Nintentdo claims that this is 'Where it all begins', ergo this is the very first Zelda game. As Link already has its hat, the Minish Cap can no longer be considered the first one. But please don't give any spoilers; I haven't played it yet :P.

I know only that the Skyward Sword will become the Master Sword in the future. Damm, this game makes me want to buy a Wii. ._.

Don't

Yeah, games are hard to pirate on a Wii. :V:

Lol, you should buy a WII :). Otherwise you can't play TLOZ: TP either. Or you can wait for the WII U.

I did play TP. I played the GC version on a GC emulator. :=

If it weren't for that sarcasm smiley... :D

I did hack my WII, I'm not proud of it or anything, it's just that the games suck without paying anyway xD

Agreed; I had/have an R4, but I'm not using it anymore. I only downloaded games I would otherwise not have bought - for example Professor Layton. However, I did buy Layton II... Yeah, I really need to buy that first one someday XD. But oh well.

Anyway, I've bought SS, it's epic :).

On the topic of pirating games, I have found that being able to have any game there is at any time, for free, kind of takes the excitement out of it. Hard to explain, but I think most of you will be able to understand it.

About Skyward sword, gameplay looks nice, but I can't get myself to like the graphics. I loved the cellshading in Wind Waker, but this just doesn't work for me.
I'd love to play it, though, but every tiny bit of money I can spare right now goes towards either music or a plane ticket.

The Graphics do actually really appeal to me.

Off topic again, I'm doubting if I should buy Layton 1 to compensate for the pirated Layton 1 I played...

Anyway, back on topic...

If any of you are worried about the motion controls, they work great. I've had no problem, however they take I while to get used to. I'm still not very far in the game, though. I've been really busy this week with school so far.

Also, I personally like the graphics.

This, I understand.

Also, do you guys take this game serious?
As in a sence that my idea is that it is way too cartoony and childish.
But that's just what I can make from the trailers...

Skyward Sword is definitely not cartoony. The graphics actually resemble Twilight Princess more than Wind Waker. And Wind Waker wasn't really childish, once you got into it. It had a very serious, dark plot hidden behind the bright colors. Skyward Sword is the same way.

I would like to say that all games are childish.  Just because there are guns and blood doesn't mean that a game is any deeper or more mature, it just means that younger people shouldn't play it.

I totally agree. Games don't need excessive violence to be fun to play.

Well I think was winkio means is that games don't deal with exceptionally mature issues in a thoughtful, realistic or mature way. Most video games really don't address hard issues in a complicated way, and before anyone says, "But what about that one time in insert_game_here, where you had to make insert_difficult conundrum_here where you have to make a moral choice and deal with it," chances are the game didn't punish you , it just changed the gameplay. Sure, it's a difficult decision, but goddamn, you gotta complete the game anyways. Mass Effect isn't going to prevent you from completing the game just because you made a certain move and to be honest, I've never played a game that affected me deeply and was actually entertaining to boot. Like the Shawshank Redemption.

whatever, /rant.

I think that games are fun BECAUSE they don't deal with such matters. We already have enough problems in our own lives. Some people play games to shoot other people, others, like me, play them to escape from reality. Diving into a land far above the clouds, slaying mythical creatures with a sacred sword and preventing a villain from grabbing a magical triangle, wow, that just makes me feel all warm inside. But I think all motives have in common that you don't have any serious concerns.

Anyways, back on topic, I've just completed the first temple and it's e-pic! The tricks I learned from walkthroughs in the past are haunting me now, though; I don't want to benefit from those walkthroughs I used in the past.

But perhaps that's just my OCD talking. Yeah, it definitely is.

I think they said that the overworld would feel kind of like a dungeon: not entirely open and having a lot of  puzzles. I think Faron woods fits that category.

After just beating this game, I can say it is the best single player game I have played to date.  It blows everything else out of the water.  I don't care how much people like Skyrim, Skyward Sword is orders of magnitude better.  It is worth it to buy a wii and a motion plus controller just for this game alone.

:O Now I am seriously considering it. Bad thing is that I don't even have a TV to play it on. ._.

Just download a emulator, Blizz.
I'm sure that you'll get over the fact that you only played it on a pc



I'm playing it too as of now (cracked, on a wii)
And I have to say that this is probably the loz with the best storyline
Sometimes the controlls mess with me a bit, even with my brand new motion controllers, but hey, can't do everything perfect can you? :D

I have an emulator, but it runs Wii games only at about half the FPS (I play it on my laptop, 2 cores @ 2.3 GHz). And I have no Wiimote which is obviously part of the game fun as you use it for the sword. :/ I played both Windwaker and Twilight Princess on an emulator (GC versions) and the FPS was just marginally bearable. I am pretty sure it damped down significantly the fun that I was having while playing them. :/

Okay, buy a Wii then ^^
At least it's easily crackable. :p

I want to play it, but I don't wanna pay $40 for the Wii Motion Plus controller on top of the $50 for the game.  >.<

I think you can still buy the Motion plus attachment for normal Wii remotes for $10.

I got the special edition golden wii remote anyway so I didn't have to worry.

I haven't been able to find the attachment >.<

Seriously?
I see them in every single multimedia store here in Belgium

Those bastards (:V:) didn't tell me you had to pre-order the special edition instead of the regular game. Argh!

Anyway, I haven't played it in a while, but I'll probably continue soon :).

The adapter isn't at any of the gamestops, but is at best buys.

The game was on sale for $40 at best buy yesterday, and I had a $40 gift card...
Sooo I didn't feel bad for only paying tax for the game :P

I'm going to papercraft myself a skyward sword.
I'll update you guys when I'm finished   :)
