Yeah, context definitely matters.

Twilight Princess is overrated because it's more or less a port of Ocarina of Time (which itself was just A Link to the Past in 3D) except with added lame sections (basically anything to do with the wolf), new useless items (anyone find more than one non-mandatory use for anything you pick up post-master sword?) and wiimote use. Nintendo could easily have made the best game ever if they'd just thought up a new plot line.

SOMEONE FINALLY AGREES WITH ME.

I didn't finish the damn game because the third or fourth time they said "HERE GO TO DARK WORLD TO COLLECT POINTLESS ORBS AS A WOLF THEN COME BACK AND WE'LL LET YOU PLAY AGAIN" I told the game to go [censored] itself.

I totally felt this way early in the game. Playing as a wolf in the beginning sucks ass and I put the game down for months. When I picked it up again, though and got deeper in the game I was no longer really forced to play as the wolf and then the puzzles and boss battles totally make up for the crappy wolf parts.

So anyway I totally agree that it's retarded you have to play through those parts, but if you called it quits you should really consider picking the game back up again. Like I said it gets way, way better.

agree with Kev. The wolf parts are dumb but the later stages are incredible.

Haven't played this or Wind Waker yet, but I started getting annoyed with the Zelda formula when I played Oracle of Seasons. The overworld stuff I thought was good and fun and somewhat fresh, but the "8 dungeons that haven't changed since 1991" thing is really starting to piss me off.

I still put Ocarina in my top 5 though.
