  1. You know, this is probably one of my favorite remix albums. While the spoken word parts are a little cheesy in concept, they're so well written that I barely notice them. On some tracks. I would like to hear the pure instrumentals, but it's not a big deal.

    Good stuff. There are a few tracks I'm not particularly fond of but the good ones more than make up for it.

  2. I always had a fat man crush on adult link as a kid. He looks too girly now. Jeez Nintendo.

    Also, even though I pronounce Saria as SAIR-ee, I'm pretty sure it's Suh-ree-ah. That's how my friend always pronounced it at least, it's Maria with an s. And Kakariko is Kack-uh-REE-co.

  3. for the record i pronounce saria as sair-ee and kokiri as kor-kor-ee. so yeah im not exactly some pronunciation wizard.

    i blame my being 5 when this game came out. feel free to get pissed about it but hey the first time i referred to "ocarina" as ock-uh-reena instead of orc-arena my siblings had no idea what i was talking about.

    edit: oh and let me get a little bit of this in here

    Dee-koo

    Nigh-roo

    Skull-tula

    Fair-rore

    Na-vee

    Hi-lee-in

    Ger-roo-doo (sharp g)

    Sheek (yes i know it's shake)

  4. His PS1 Final Fantasy scores pretty much define my childhood. I always tear up every time I hear the world map song from FF7. It's really bizarre to believe that once upon a time the only thing that mattered in my world was his music. I didn't even really know of any other musicians until I was like, 8 or 10.

    So if I ever met Uematsu I'd probably cream my pants.

  5. What the hell, I haven't disagreed with Bleck once in this thread.

    Going off of Charlemagne, I'm really excited for Skyward Sword because it seems like they're fixing all of those issues. The battle system is basically broken in TP, and to be fair it always was broken, because using the shield is essentially the same as activating god mode. No one can touch you when you've got your tiny shield up. And if Link's got a combo going, well, the enemy is pretty much screwed. Even though the Darknuts could cause Link to stagger, they never took the opening given to them, they'd just make Link step back a little bit and then stand there waiting while Link gets his shit together. The stamina gauge fixes all of this, so that's good.

    Though where's the magic meter? Why'd they do away with that?

    I will give TP credit for, as Mr. Charlemagne put it, having those mini dungeons dotted around the map. I went back to TP to get the heart pieces some months ago, and was actually pretty entertained finding all these random grottos that turned out to be these pretty big labyrinths. I had to go back and forth to the one in Lake Hylia a couple of times because I kept running out of lamp oil or arrows or something.

  6. When was the last time you played OoT? I played it three years ago, so I'm worried I won't enjoy it as much. Also I tend to watch OoT videos on Youtube when I'm particularly bored, so, I dunno I never really stopped playing it.

    (And yet I rate OoT as being an average Zelda game. I'm strange).
