The moon hits all Zelda fanatics

For all who were awestruck after completing The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time, they will be completely spellbound when they pop Nintendo's brand-new sequel into their N64 machines. They will enter the world of The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask.

In this stunning addition to the Zelda series, the young hero Link will meet a mischevious Skull Kid, who is under the evil power of Majora's Mask, and leads him into a strange world parallel to Hyrule, known as Termina. But he has entered at a bad time. He learns that in three short says, the moon is going to crash onto Termina, destroying everything in its wake.

Link's quest is then unfolded before him--he must unfog the mystery of Majora's Mask, and somehow stop the moon from falling. Throughout the game, he will collect 20 different masks, each giving him a special power. Some of them even allow him to transform into different creatures. But you'd be surprised at how quickly three days can go by...

The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask is expected to come out October 26, 2000 in the U.S., and a few days later in other countries.

This game is soooo cool. You have three days and nights, to find Majora's Mask and save Termina from being destroyed by the falling moon. In this game, all of the minor characters in Orcarina are better explored and new character's are also introduced. As well as Majora's mask, you have to find 24 other masks.Another cool thing about this game is that Young Link can use some of the weapons that were previosly only available to Adult Link. But the neatest thing of all about Majora's mask is the ability to turn in to different things depending on which mask you are wearing. The Deku mask allows you turn turn in to a Deku , the Zora mask in to a Zora and the Goron in to a Goron etc..One of the questions you might have about this game is whether Link can grow up as in Orcarina. Well, I don't want to spoil it for you but I'll tell you this....The final battle is worth playing the game for.

The Best Game ever

Your mission is to save Termina from impending doom as the moon is about to make an unscheduled stop right on top of you. Forget Ganondorf, your new enemy is now the Skull kid, as using the power of Majoras mask he can now control the moon and if that wasn't enough, he has turned Link into a Deku scrub. This new game is packed with new features as you have to use the power of the masks, which you can obtain from the "Mask shop man" to change into diferent people. In total there are 25 masks for you to find including Goron, Deku, Zora, Great fairy and Bunny mask. Plus unlike the last game theres no where to run from time as it never stops, with only 3 days to save termina. With great mini games as well, including a dog race where you have to pick a dog that you think will win a race around Lon Lon ranch. Be prepared in getting food supplys as you wont be comming out of your room for along time over Christmas. This game will defintly last you along time and well worth the money.

Majora's Mask: A rehash game or an all new adventure?

So far, from what I've seen this game looks simply awesome. The graphics are slightly better than those in Ocarina of Time which had graphics ahead of its time. You start out riding through the Lost Woods on Epona and soon come across two faries that are brother and sister. Uh oh... Seems that they made you stop so the Skull Kid could steal your ocarina of time and your pony, Epona. Well Link, not to be out done, takes off after the Skull Kid into another world that seems strangly familar. Seems this world is almost exactly like Hyrule but everyone seems different and a huge moon is closing in on the world, ready to smash our young hero.Time for the tiny terror Link to gear up and set forth to reclaim his ocarina and pony, as well as to stop the moon from crashing into the world. But the thing is Link only has three days to stop this bizzar fate from happening. Luckily Link still remembers the Song of Time taught to him by Princess Zelda. Across his journey Link will find different swords and masks to help him in his adventure. Some masks allow him to change into other forms while other masks just grant him special powers. Sounds like an awesome game already, right?I just hope Zelda is somewhere in the game and maybe something about Ganon and the Triforce. I loved all the previous Zelda games (A Link to the Past being my fav.) so I have high expectations for this game. If the story is deeper than Ocarina of Time and the music has been updated I see no reason why this game couldn't capture game of the year for any game system. I've preordered my copy. Don't you think this is a treasure you can't afford to miss? This is a MUST BUY in my book.

The new Mojora's Mask will definately be the next best hit! With 24 different masks to collect (you will collect the 24th mask after you collected all the others) and each mask with different special abilities, the possibilities and fun are endless! Time will play a factor in this game, for you are trying to save Clock Town from destruction from an evil moon within 72 hours! You can ride Epon when your a child, too! The final battle in Mojora's Mask is you (with the 24th mask) v.s. Skull Kid, who steals your ocarina and horse in the beginning of your adventure!

Bottom Line: get Mojora's Mask cuz you'll never know what to expect!

Hi, I just play this import game, it's really cool you might even say better than OOT. First off the traditional overworld theme is back to all of thoses complainers. In Talmina everybody has a life of their own instead of just Link in other worlds NPC's (or non playable characters) have AI or Artificial intelligence. There are four different instruments and 24 different mask and you can transform into a dekushrub, a goron, and a zora. However there are only three days before the world ends and the moon crashes so you use your ocarina to travel back in time to day one. there are alot of minigames but I think thew coolest is the goron racing is is a clone EPISODE 1 racing. There is alot of detail. A dog hates dekushrubs, like Zoras, and are scared of gorons. It's really cool when traveling. Instead of just plain old fields they're alot like the tradional Zelda: A link to the past.

Zelda Entertains and Amazes as always!

If you liked Ocarina of Time, then you will LOVE this one. A lot of elements are still there, but there's a completely new challenge this time. Ever see the movie "Groundhog Day" with Bill Murray? Well Majora's Mask is very similar. Link is forced to live out the same 3 days of his life over and over again... because that is all he has to save the world, and keep the moon from crashing into Termina (not Hyrule this time). This is a very unique challenge to RPG's, Adventure games, and Zelda in general. This game is everything you know and love from the Zelda legacy, and much more.

Much of the game is very similar to Ocarina of Time. The items, the people, the weapons, and the overworld all look about the same. You still have an ocarina with which you may play magic songs, each with their own special powers. The control style is exactly the same as OOT, but there are countless tutorials along the way in case you've forgotten or never played. There are only 4 dungeons (or levels, if you want to still call them that) which means there are a LOT of heart pieces scattered across the world just waiting for you to find them - this was always my favorite thing to find, by the way.

But there are some key differences in this game, that make it unique to the Zelda series. First, there is the time element. At the end of three days (or anytime durning the three days) Link must return to Day 1 and starting fresh. This isn't to say you leave behind all you have gained. You keep with you all the special items you find, but everything else returns to the was it was on Day 1. That means dungeons are incomplete, people have never met you, and all your bombs, arrows, and money are gone. This whole concept adds to the challenge, and makes you focus on your individual goals rather than wander aimlessly. The clock is always ticking! Time is an important element. Before you had to worry only about night and day, but now you actually have to schedule your tasks, because there are a number of things you can only do on Day 2, but not Day 1, etc.

Another newer concept is the Masks. If you played OOT, you may remember the Happy Mask Shop. This involved a number of side-quests to find specific masks in the world, and use them to accomplish specific tasks. If you are like me, you didn't concern yourself with it then becasue it had little to do with the story, or completing the game. Well now, the masks essentially ARE the game. Each mask you find gives you a new power, or in some cases a new form (Deku Scrub, Goron Warrior, and Zora). Each mask has its own unique purpose, and its own side quest is involved in finding it. Finding a new mask will greatly increase your abililty to make progress in the story.

So far this game has been just as addictive as its predecessors. The time element is a very unique attribute to this game, and I appreciate it more every time I play. The masks add a lot to the game, because it gives you about 20 more items to find, on top of the weapons, magic items, songs, heart containers, and power-ups you already need. I like this because you always feel like you are making progress. It's hard to play for even half an hour without finding something new, so this game will keep you interested throughout. I estimate that I am half-way through with this game, and I have never felt bored, or tired of it. If you liked any previous Zelda games, then obviously this is the game for you. And if you are new to the Zelda universe, but like role-playing style adventure games, then try this out, and I guraentee you will find yourself buying older systems just to play the other Zelda games. This is a good one!

Zelda is yet another reason for people to abandon the playstation 2. This has got to be the best game in the world. Everyone thought that Ocarina Of Time was good and that no other game could beat it, that was until this beauty came along. Graphically it is superb, the game play is excellant, and the longitivity of the game is imense. I have never seen another game like it and i doubt i ever will. Ocarina of time had a few flaws like it was too easy especialy if you had played the Zelda games on the Nes and Snes as the puzzels were the same, but this one is completely different. CONGRATULATIONS to Nintendo for making a superb follow up and heres hoping that the next zelda game on the new system will be as good if not better than this one.
