I got it for my Wii 8)... it's awesome, you should get it. Unlike the originals, (ex. Majora's Mask or Ocarina of Time) it's much easier like the windwaker... you should get it :D

I only find the bosses and enemies easy, but the puzzles can take time.

The puzzles and other parts of the temples have perfect difficulty, but the bosses are to easy... Maybe some more temples would have been nice too... Otherwise, best game ever!

All Zelda bosses are easy IMO... Except for Gyorg (MM, water Temple boss) :lol: I had some trouble with that guy... He's fishy. :P

And the OOT fire Temple boss (forgot name, volga or something???) took me a while too.
The rest of them is easy. The enemy I LOVED fighting was Igos du Ikana and his henchman in MM. They were my favorite. Putting on the captains hat and confusing the king, and marching his guards behind me with the Bremen mask :lol:
They were pretty difficult to kill too.

w00t! 1111th post!

I got Zelda for GC... And it's awesome! The only thing I can imagine is much better on the Wii is when you need to aim fast with the bow and such weapons... But I don't know, I have to try it at someone's Wii, only problem is, I don't know anyone who have a Wii and all stores I've been to have no Wii to test...

Search for Twilight Princess on Wikipedia. I just went from one link to another while filling myself up with general Zelda info :D. As for the timeline, as of yet there isn't one, but this might be of use to you. This video and the ones before it are really interesting. I recommend that everybody should see these.

What the?!?! What is it with my computer/internet connection? I don't want to double post... The second time in a few day I've done that by accident... And I can't delete my posts....


Back-On-Topic:
That timeline theory is really good... Only problem is that they have'nt got TP in there...

Thanks for the link Rekubot, some real intresting stuff there. The theory is good I like the split timeline theory. I hope in the next Zelda game Zelda from Hyrule "B" comes to Link in Hyrule "A" and he has to use the ocarina to travel between both Hyrules to save both.

But to stay on topic, I got to the Zant battle, coolest fight I've ever seen, sadly much to easy, Zant is pretty much my favorite character in the Zelda serieis now.

*Spoilers*


I was actually very disappointed with Zant. One minute he's a creepy, eerie guy who you totally fear and then he becomes some stupid clown! It totally broke the tension and although it was funny, I thought that it was rather disappointing. I'm also annoyed about the fact that you fight him in the Snowpeak ruins; Zant isn't even supposed to know that it's an important room! He has no idea where the mirror shards went to.

*Also Spoilers*

I like the fact that throughout the whole game he's the big creepy intiminating force, then when you finally see him he's just some crazy baffoon with magic powers. It really helped illustrate the point of how much Ganondorf was controlling him and how he was just a puppet, as well as also being funny :lol:. I agree with the Snowpeak ruin thing, he had no idea where the mirror shard was there or else he would have sent more defenses there. Even though Zant was disappointing for a little while I still like him for being that cool looking eerie/ clown really crazy person. (Who fights like a wuss with his swords. :lol: ) But I can see how your disappointed with him, but you have to admit it was a real unpredicatable twist. Nintendo probable did it to show what a puppet he was.

*SPOILERS!*

Zant was cooler earlier in the game, the shadowy figure who seems almighty and the leader of the evil guys. But then in the end he's just some crazy easy guy to defeat (but very fun to fight indeed). I think he gone a little bit too clowny when having that swordsduel, but I love fighting against other enemies with swords so I get a real duel-feeling.
Ganondorf, he was the toughest boss in the game and the most fun one too. What a feeling when he just came to Hyrule Field and I had to fight all by myself in a swordsfight against him! I love those kind of fights....

Wow, that was a very interesting theory on the time line of the games, in the video. I may play every one of those games in the "chronological" order they posted them in. I haven't beaten LoZ: TP yet but i just beat Zant today. It was an interesting fight especially with him becoming a clown like character. He looked like something from Kingdom Hearts. But you have to admit his sound effect was cool. (The screech thing :) ) Twilight Princess ( TP ) is definitely after OoT, and i'll probably end up beating the game by the middle of this week. (Depends on how much homework i get in the first week of school).

*Spoilers*

I also loved the duel sword fight at the end. They could have made the horseback battle more intense though. The boss fights at the end where the best, the boss at the sky temple was also a cool fight I thought. Breaking the armor off that giant dragon. :P What are you guys' favorite boss fight? Also on that topic was anyone amazed how detailed the boss in the Temple of Time was. (Well I have a fear of spiders, so it sort of was creepy.)

Has anyone gone through the Cave of Ordeals? I really liked that "you aginist everyone" feeling, but the rooms with just all the bats and rats where pointless, I always got swarmed by them and ended up losing hearts... The last room was a fun challenge though.

*Possible Spoilers*

I think I got to the last room in the Cave of Ordeals. It was three of those big guys with sword, shield and thick armor. I panicked in the room where it was just two of them and well, those guys ain't fun when there's more than one. (that's rhyming :lol: )

I had two fairies, one bottle of blue potion and one bottle of fairy tear (if that's what it's called) and they all got wasted before that final room I reached.. Those guys in armor are tough. I hate those rooms with ice-bats, so annoying to just get freezed and the rooms with those "screaming" skeletons was annoying too..

Yep, that's the last room. I completed the cave of ordeals yesterday for the first time and lost two fairies :roll:. What's even more frightening is the prospect of doing it again; the cave becomes even harder and in the room with two darknuts, there are now three, and in the room with three darknuts... there are four! I seriously suggest you have fairies and both bottles of fairy tears, as well as full hearts, all items, full rupees and magic armor if you want to stand a chance.

Here's a few tips for killing enemies. For stalfos, use the ball and chain for an instant kill. You could also use bomb arrows but that's a waste if you want to defeat other enemies later. For re-deads, become wolf link and jump attack the redead. Keep tapping 'A' to bite out his health and then repeat the process again. Assuming you do it quickly, the re-dead won't even have time to screech. For armored lizalfos, just use a bomb arrow on one, wait for the others to go and investigate and when they're all crowded together, use one more bomb arrow to completely obliterate the pack :D. It felt good to do that. In the rooms with ice enemies, I just wore magic armor, but it seriously drained my rupees. For those ice skeleton things with spears, just use bomb arrows. It takes two bomb arrows to kill one ice skeleton, but you tend to get absolutely cained otherwise; even with magic armor.

Where can I get fairy tears? Except for that bottle from the "golden guy" (is'nt he called something like, Jovani?)
