action

If you were either too young or didn't have enough interest to get The Legend of Zelda:A Link to the Past when it was on the SNES 10 years ago, correct your mistake by getting it today! This game has it all: Strategy, action, occasional comedy, you name it!

The story, while being a little stereotypical, is pretty good. Ganon, who's stuck in the Dark World, sends out Aganhim to get him out of there so he can take over both versions of Hyrule. Seven maidens are kidnapped in order to carry out this task, and Princess Zelda is one of them. So of course, it's up to you, Link, to beat Ganon and all of his evil minions.
STORY:10/10
Even though the game is about 10 years old, the graphics are perfect. I have yet to see something look bad, although the eccesive scrolling needed is a tad annoying at worst.
GRAPHICS:10/10
I can find nothing wrong with the gameplay. B's sword, A's item, D-Pad is move, START is Pause, SELECT is item select, R is pick up/read, and L is map. It all makes sense.
GAMEPLAY:10/10
I love the sound! Nintendo made a soundtrack CD of Majora's Mask, and they should do the same for this game. I especially like the Lost Woods track. My tip:get some headphones.
SOUND:10/10
Because you probably won't get everything the first time through, there's that much more replay value.
REPLAY VALUE:10/10

Overall:10/10

......And that's just the single player game! That's right, the first ever Multiplayer Zelda game is here! And the Four Swords is more fun than a barrel of monkeys!

The story is basically the same as all of the other Zelda titles: Zelda gets kidnapped by a Wind Mage named Vaati(whom, Nintendo says, is the bad guy of the upcoming Wind Walkers game) and she won't just escape by herself. You, Link, use the Four Sword to create multiple copies of yourself. Each of your linkees play as one.

The graphics are fine. Nothing wrong here.
GRAPHICS:10/10
The gameplay is good too. Just like everything else.

EVERYTHING ELSE:10/10

Both games:10/10
All in all, a must-have for everyone. It's just so great!

A few notes: Doing things in one game can effect the other. For instance, beating both games opens up a new(and virtually impossible) dungeon in LttP. Getting the Master Sword means you can use it's beam capabilities in Four Swords.

I got this game for GBA the exact day I bought the all-new "Legend Of Zelda: The Wind Waker". It's actually a nice addition! You play as Link, a hero who must save the world from an evil wizard, while trying to save the Princess Zelda. (as usual). I believe that the dungeons are a bit harder this time around. The same goes for the puzzles! The SNES version was way easy, but this is an even better challenge! Voices and improved graphics have also been added in, giving it a more realistic feeling than the first. There's also a BONUS!!! "The Four Swords" game! You link up to 2-4 players helping each other get trhough the dungeons. My fav though, will always be the original, "Link To The Past"! It has the most action any Zelda game has to offer. (although I'm not sure about the Wind Waker, cause I haven't played TOO much of it yet!) In fact, this game along w/ "Link's Awakening" & "Ocarina Of Time" are one of my favorites! They even were able to make it sound like the original soundtrack when they transferred it from SNES to GBA, and the gameplay is still awesome! I've beaten the game on SNES thousands of times, but this is even better than ever!!! BUY TODAY!!! It's one of the best action-RPGs to ever hit videogames!
I also reccomend, "Oracle Of Ages" & "Oracle Of Seasons" too!

I have played about 4 Zelda games altogether, and this was the best ever!!! I haven't even played the multiplayer Four Swords adventure yet, and I give it 5 stars already!

Plot: The plot doesn't really have any real effect on the game itself, though there are some hidden twists. +1

Graphics: Not the best I've ever seen, but works fine for the gameplay. +1.5

Gameplay: I've yet to see better. There are amazingly vast series of beasties, and each one is unique. Every item you get is usefull, the dungeons are fun, every boss is great, hard to beat but not too hard. I love it. +3

Sound: The only thing I didn't love.. The sounds don't always suit the situition, and it's like the whole games music is
balanced on a few songs that keep being recycled. -1

Replay Value: O.K., I guess. +.5

All in all, if you want a good game to play for a while, then I suggest you try Legend of Zelda Games(this one in particular).

GO, ZELDA!WAHOO!
