They managed to absoutley ruin a game. This game is so terrible because of its graphics. Thats not the only thing either. The gameplay stinks too. I am judging this game after playing it and wow it makes you think how people can make such bad games. Link looks like a pre-schooler who found a sword and decided to journey. Im confused why games like these are made.
Amazinly disappointing.

The sailing is boring and terrible, the Wind Waker baton aspect is just not at all interesting and just really annoying. Gameplay wise, not a noticable step above Ocarina of Time, which is just pathetic. Poorly designed, over-hyped, and just mediocre.
This is NOT Legend of Zelda quality

Do you remember how awesome the Ocraina of Time was? If you were hoping this game would be another great continuation of this story, you will probably be very disapointed. Instead of the great elf-like Link in the Ocraina of Time, his head now precicely mimics the demensions of a balloon. And while they claim that Link is 12 years old in this game, he looks more like 6. I don't think that The Legend of Zelda was ever supposed to look "goofy" like this. Even though the gameplay is similar to Ocraina of Time, the look of the game makes it just not fun. I DONT recomend it.
This Game is stupid!!

The disc can be snapped apart
It is not educational and involves violence
It is not fun at all
It is the dumbest game I ever played since Halo 2!
Disapointed Zelda Die Hard Fan

In this chaotic world of rogue demons and aspects where all sorts of beasts need slaying, I have to say Zelda has always held my interest.
Since the original, I've followed the entire Legend of Zelda series, sometimes buying a Nintendo simply for the hours of exploration and gameplay it offered. I saw the previews of this game as E3 and I felt nothing but disapointment. The childish, flat graphics have all but destroyed the game.
The break from its elfin roots into this wierd MarioLand like interface is just hideous. For once, I think I'm going to pass on the Legend of Zelda. Everything that Link was, seems to be missing from this game.
Too bad, I was really looking forward to a new adventure in an ultra high-detailed Hyrule with a grown up link. . . not another pre-school session.
If you were too, don't bother with WindWalker.
Less than perfect

I wanted to like The Wind Waker. It has everything that a Legend of Zelda game should have; great puzzles, fun combat, good characters; but I don't, and not for the reason that most would give. The cel-shading was a novel idea. It's the stupid island hopping that turns me off to this game. The Legend of Zelda is supposed to take place in Hyrule, or, as in the case of Link's Awakening, on AN island, not some "Great Sea" covering an old Hyrule. If everything else had been the same, the cel-shading, the characters, weapons and puzzles and had set it in one place without having to hop islands, I would have loved it as much as the other games. The island hopping ruined it for me.
que juego tan malo

Well, I've always loved Zelda in the past, so I'm hopeful that this game will be just as awesome. Yes, the graphics can get me a little teary eyed. Especially since they changed after the beatiful previews at the E3 show. I did hear that the graphics changed so they could actually do more w/ the game. I don't know exactly what it means, but hopefully it's good! Graphics do add a lot to zelda, but there are so many more key elements like the items, story, game play, controls, etc etc... So I'm definetly giving it a try!!
Be warned, this game is not what you think

This game is by far the worset zelda game, it should not even be called zelda. First off this is not a game, its a interactive storybook. The whole game you are led around, the game tells you what to do at almost every turn, there is zero free will, hardly any if any figureing things out, none of that
the game is made so that a child will not be turned off because he/she cant figure out where to go
Prime example: in the boat, there is a small arrow behind it, that points in the direction you are supose to be traveling in, (see the map you have there is all for show ;p)
this is my favorite, you come to a ledge and before you even have a chance to look around the game pops up and says "do u see a narrow ledge you could inch across? to inch across face the wall and hod down "A" but be careful!..., other parts in a FMV it shows u just where to go, also tells you what you need to do consistently
Older gamers pls run and hide, dont waste your money on this,
this game should be like liquior only in reverse, (12 and under only!)
Worst Game Ever

The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker is such a terrible game because of the following:
The controls are horrid, I have never seen such bad controls in my life. I told it to go left and it went straight and then turned left 15 seconds later;The graphics are horrible too, I could see every little pixel that outlined Link; It also looks two dementional.
I would not rent, buy, or recommend this to anybody because this game is so horrible.
