[i]I guess I'm quite lucky in that I have a good number of male cousins my age or younger and so are interested in gaming! [/i]

I played it through with my girlfriends. My best mate and I had been playing Zelda since we were little kiddies, but Four Swords was the first experience of the series for the other two people in our party - and they had a fantastic time with it.

Grrrrrr, fed up with people slating Minish Cap. It's fucking fantastic and one of my favourite Zeldas ever (although addmittedly I haven't played them all yet). I'm sure I haven't defeated Vaati yet either.......now wheres my gba......

Minish cap : too hard/too long
Wind waker : too easy/too short

TP : Just right

Although I'd have prefered TP to have WW style graphics. And more "town exploration" ala WW/OT, And not take so long to "get going"

So TP is brilliant, but by no means perfect (but what game is?)

Maybe i was in a drunk addled stooper when i played it.

But its the only zelda i've ever gotten REALLY stuck on and had to resort to using a faq :-)

Maybe because it was handheld game i just didnt bother so much? Dunno.

Oh, and I've played most of the zelda series (inc 4 swords), but never the 2nd one.

My favourite is drawn between OOT and the snes one. BUT TP might be up there (not finished it yet.. think i'm about to do the last boss 40 hours in)

Wow, I never knew Majora's Mask was so popular. I remember buying it for Christmas years ago and just having a blast playing it even abandoning my family at the dinner table to have another crack at the swamp level. While at first it was a little clunky and confusing as soon as you got used to everything it offered up some of the richest gameplay the series had. I still have fond memories of Snowhead Mountain, the mad beaver race, the Gerudo fortress and the mad vertical climb to Stone Head temple. I've just given my Gamecube and The Wind Waker to my cousin to give to her 4 year old for Xmas and all this talk is really making me miss it. Hopefully when the Wii system gets going they'll have Majora's Mask to download and maybe it'll have a graphical rehaul like Master Quest got (making it less blocky and foggy). I tried to replay MM recently and couldn't get past the graininess....

bollocks to Nintendo. i cannot believe they're releasing the GC Zelda a week after the Wii Zelda. ok, it's only an extra week on top of a two year wait, but it still pisses me off.

I was enjoying the article until I got to "Despite this human aspect, Majora's Mask is a lonely game. Link is disorientated..."

Disorientated is not a word. I do believe you're looking for "disoriented". I would expect anyone writing for a respectable website would have a decent grasp of the English language. It's almost as bad as the people who say "For all intensive purposes"...
