Game has everything, from stunning graphics to mind-boggling puzzles, to just being fun to play. Zelda has everything other games lack, such as bringing thought and fun together. If you are fighting an electricly-charged enemy, and you use a sword, you'll get a shock (big surprise!), but if you use a wooden weapon, the electic current cannot be conducted, leaving you shock-free. Zelda also has many other gameplay innovations that make it a great game, such as the passage of time, and how time affects your journey. Going to Hyrule Castle from the forest? hope you run fast enough, because the drawbridge will be raised as soon as night falls. Also, Zelda has one of the best gaming tools I've ever seen: Z-targeting. Just lock on to an enemy and fire your slingshot (or boomerang, or bow). In conclusion, I just want to say that this game has changed the way we look and think about gaming, changes which will be around for a long time to come.
Its great

I love theses types of games and it is amazingly in front of mario. A little bit more editting in the game would have been better but it was good. It took me a month or two to beat the game because i live in japan and didn't wait for the english version.
Dubbed Best Game of '99 Already?!

Many magazines and Nintendo it self have already rated The Legend Of Zelda:Ocarina of Time the best game of 99 already. It is an awesome games with the best graphics for N64, coming close to maximum graphic capability at 63 of 64 bits. It is the best N64 game so far. If you want a mid-challenging game to get hooked on Zelda: The Ocarina of Time is your best choice. It is probably #1 on the gift list of anyone with a N64. If you want to get a gift for a N64 maniac, get this game!
A must have for any gamer

Zelda Ocarina of time is a fabulous example fo 3D graphics at there best. The N64 has many fewer games than that of other platforms such as the Playstation but I feel that it is beginning to offer games of unparallelled quality. The Zelda adventure; and that is what it is is worth every penny with well crafted and extremely eye-pleasing graphics. The programmers really have done an exceptions job. The fighting scenes are heart poundingly exciting and the storyline is envigourating. I have only progressed at this time to a teenage stage in the game in approximately two weeks of playing but it definitely gets more and more addictive as you go on. Quite simply this is the best game of its type on the market (even on playstation).
By far the best game of '98!

This game is breathtakingly designed with its characters, side games, techniques etc., etc. I was easily obsorbed in the storyline instantly and the action was phenomenal. With all the options in the order of the story kept me intensly in the game as if I actually was a member of the vast world of Hyrule. If this game is not followed by a sequel this year, it would be a sad mistake. This game is easily ranked up there with the best of the best of games I have ever played.
Zelda has and always will be THE BEST!!

"Zelda: The Orcarina of Time" is by far the best game EVER made! It deserves "the best game of the century" title!! The storyline is awesome, and the characters are unforgettable! It's a must-have game for anyone owning a N64.. or if you are a long-time Zelda fan like me, it's a must..

Zelda for Nintendo 64 is the best Zelda yet. It is easy enough for an amateur like myself to play but hard enough that my 13 year old, that beats ANY game in a matter of hours, is still playing after two weeks. It has plenty of puzzels to keep you interested and challenged. It is very realistic with the three dimensions and sounds. Zelda is great fun. You'll not be sorry when you buy it.
Zelda 64 is probably the best Nintendo 64 game ever.

Well, I'm sure everyone has heard about this game and they've also heard how it's the best game ever. Well, they're very close. I know for sure that it's not the best game ever but it kicks a**! I have never seen a game that allows you to do so many things. You can fish, fight, ride horses, archery ranges, travel through time, play music, and so much more. The graphics are the best I have ever seen from the N64 and the sound totally puts a mood for the game. No wonder Zelda 64 was the most antisipated game ever. The game takes around 50 - 200 hours to complete but after you finish there is still some replay value. The only thing I did not like about it is that it is to easy. I finished it in less than a week. Don't get me wrong I am still playing it constantly and I always get captured by the story line. I say The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time, is a must buy for anyone. So what are you waiting for get off your tush and buy it right away. I rate this game a perfect 10.
WOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

This is the greatest game ever in my opinion. Just look at the detail of some of the characters. And the size of it. Compare the weight of Zelda to some other game and you will find out that Zelda is a lot heavier because of the cartridge size. I rate this game a perfect 10. Awesome is the only way to describe this game!!
