What a revolutionary LoZ game

The most recent LoZ games, in my opinion, have all been fairly average. Wind Waker was the latest actually good LoZ game. But of all the LoZ games, OoT is just plain incredible.

In this game, you play as Link as he grows from a child into a young man while on his quest to defeat Ganon and save the world from ultimate, evil rule. Along the way, you meet many friends and face amazing boss battles.

The graphics (at the time) were just incredible. It really made me enjoy looking at and playing the game. Nintendo really did a great job in this department.

The gameplay is like no other. One of the few incredible games to utilize the C Buttons for vital controls, this game felt really comfortable to play, and there's tons to do in the game besides just beating it. Also, throughout the game, you are forced to travel back and forth through time and play as Young or Adult Link to complete the game, which is awe-inspiring in my opinion. Sadly, after doing little everything, there's no addictive mini-games to really play and not much else to do, but go through the game again and again.

The sound is incredible, and the music has never been better. I found myself turning the volume on the TV all the way up while playing this game, because the sound was that good!

If you're an avid gamer, yet you've never played this game, then something's really wrong with you. Pick this game up and play it 'till your fingers fall off (which I guarantee you'll do). This game is worth buying and owning for as long as you even are alive.

Best Game Ever....period

Ok. I got a free Nintendo 64 from my cousins when I was about 8. I also got roughly 9 games. One of these games happened to be Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time. I honestly didn't think anything of it at the time. However, curiousity got to me, and I had to play: I would be hooked. You wouldn't imagine how many memories I have with this game. In third grade, this was the only thing me and my friends ever talked about. The temples and dungeons are very complex, as is the atmosphere of the game. I mean, some parts of the game can actually frighten you. The music. My God, they made such beautiful and deep music for a video game. I am listening to the soundtrack of the game as I type here. Any video game fan should buy this game.

GET IT....NOW

If you have an N64, buy this game. It is, by far, the best N64 game you can get. Link can no longer throw his sword when he has full health, but he doesnt need to 'cause hes got a million weopons and magic moves and even a horse so that he can get the job done. There is not one problem with this game, and anyone can play it. good graphics, perfect sound, INCREDIBLE replay value, and mini quests if you ever get stuck......oh yeah, and same good ol' hack and slash Zelda battle system (but more skill involved). A MUST BUY. TRUST ME. BEST GAME EEEEEVVVVVEEEERRRR

Best Videogame Ever

This is the best video game ever, IMHO. It has a great plot, great characters and great fun! They should seriously make a movie! The main character is Link, a young boy who lives in a village beyond Hyrule Field. One day, he is called upon by the Great Deku Tree. He sends you on a quest to save Hyrule from the evil Gannondorf, who is the best game villian ever, IMHO. First, you have to go inside the Great Deku Tree and destroy Queen Gohma. When you ride into Hyrule, the real adventure begins. Whren you enter Hyrule, you will eventually run into Rauru The Sage who tells you to go to the Forest Temple(I think). On the way, you defeat Dodongo and save Princess Ruto from the belly of Jabu Jabu(Again, I think). When you finally get to the first Temple, you have to defeat Phantom Ganon and meet up with Saria The Sage(Link's friend)and you go to the Fire Temple to defeat Volvagia etc. After hours of playing, you will have gotten all the Sages. Hyrule Castle is now a fortress to Gannondorf with no bridge to cross the lava moat, aso the Sages create a bridge for you. Inside, you defeat Gannondorf, rescue Zelda and save the kingdom. Or so you think. You have to battle the final bos, Gannon and escape the castle quickly. If you make it, you will have beaten the game.

Myy only complain is that some of thne Temples are frustrating. My favorite temple is either the Shadow Temple or the Forest one. On the way, you meet cool characters like the various scarecrows, Malon, Ingo, Talon etc.

Anyway, if you have N64, you BETTER have this game. If not, buy it right now!

A Superb RPG Adventure Game!

This game won the 1998-1999 Game of the Year award, and it is no surprise at all. The newly invented game engine used to design this game was ingenious, the freedom to explore is very large and impressive, the play control is easy to learn, Koji Kondo's music is excellent, and the whole game is just fun. When I first played it, I had so much fun exploring the Kokiri Forest I hardly thought about progressing. The exploration in one little area is that much fun. The graphics and play control are great. The "Z-Targeting" is a great feature, and I'm glad it's there. It's much more easier and fun to play that way. The music is the greatest I've heard on a video game. You can play songs on the ocarina you get that has magic powers, and you only need one quick lesson. I'ts fun, funny, challenging and a must buy.

Simply Incredible

I've been playing Zelda games for a while, and this one is deffinitly one of the best I've played. It has a lot to it, and for an N64, the graphics are great. The storyline is good, but the one thing that it missed, was sword fighting while on Epona. Luckily, they will be adding that in the upcoming Zelda Game, Twilight Princess. But other than that, if this game got a grade, it would be an A, no doubt about it

an incredible adventure that never gets old

like all zelda games the ocarina of time provides an adventure about link a young hero.in the ocarina of the player takes control of a young boy known as link. right from the start of the game players jaws dropped at the sight of the graphics for 64 bit graphics it looks amazing.as the story progresses players obtain more items and link becomes more of a hero at about 2 thirds through the player becomes an adult and he cant use some of his items which is one the most impressive features in a game iv ever seen. Its about an ancient evil being restored and a child giving up his youth for his country theres nothing bloody wrong with this game its perfect.p.sthis game is why you keep your n64

Great, Classic Game

One of the most critically acclaimed games ever

Reading magazines from 1996-1998 one thing you couldn't escape was a some kind of mention of Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time. It was all over the place. Popping this in my N64 when I took it home I spent literally 2 hours just exploring Kokiri Village just cause it was so fun. But then I realized "oh yeah there's more to this, isn't there?" And that's when the fun started.

Graphics: Although you can probably debate this, this has one of the best graphics you'll find on the system. Lot of areas just drop that "wow factor", like when you first enter Zora's Domain or the game's many cutscenes.

Sound: Although there's no voice, except for Navi's annoying "Hey!" and an occasional "Hello" from her or Link's grunts, it's got some awesome music. One thing I love is the short ocarina songs you play, such as Song of Storms, Zelda's Lullaby and Song of Time, plus general area music. Although the overworld music isn't like what it was on Link to the Past, it's still great.

Story: The story starts off with Link having a bad dream about a mysterious man and woman. Then Link is summoned to the Great Deku Tree where he fills Link in on his quest and it goes from there. Even though it can be a quite simple story, it's just a huge epic story that kept me interested.

Gameplay: The infamous Z-Targeting system that's spawned several developers to use it in their own games. The recent Star Fox Adventures uses this. Your C-Buttons are for your weapons. B is your sword and A is your action button(Talk, Jump, Climb,etc.). You'll know this system by heart cause Navi tells you how many times about it within the first hour. Camera is excellent and the Z targeting helps.

Even though you might be able to find this, I suggest you pick it up. Dust off your N64 and dive into what is one of the 90's most critically acclaimed and commercial masterpieces ever.

The Best Adveture Game

This game is amazing. It has one of the best plot and story line that I have ever played. It has great graphics and views of the backrounds. There are many puzzles and battles to complete along your journey. You collect a number of diffrent items and weapons to defeat your opponents and complete your quest. You will enjoy and play this game for hours as you explore 3 diffrent dungeons and 5 diffrent temples. It is a must have game.
