:l I'm not telling you to play it so you can say you played it, or to consider yourself a fan; I'm just saying you need to play it because it's a great fucking game, it's one of the best games ever if not the best. It's like you're one of the twelve year olds who thought SONIC UNLEASHED was the best Sonic game ever and refuses to play the older ones to even compare. That way you'll understand everyone's opinion on why they think OoT was the best; I mean I could care less if you play it or not I just haven't heard a remotely valid reason not to play it, and can't even fathom one.
The only people who don't like Zelda never gave it much of a chance; my friend saw me playing it once and said ughhh, those games are so boring though aren't they? You run around solve puzzles and barely kill things; the only games he plays are CoD and Racing games.. He sat down with me and played 3 hours of Zelda and then he played through the entire game and watched me play through a lot of Majora's mask. THE GAME EVEN TURNS COD FANS INTO RPG FANS.
Some claim Skyward Sword is the best one out there; and it probably is, if Zelda hadn't topped OoT yet with all the new capabilities I would of been upset. Still nothing compares to the story of OoT that has become the basis for Zelda stories and gameplay ever since. The first 3D Zelda revolutionized the game and set the bar for all the others; just as Super Mario 64 did, and many others..
