Strange Video Game Reviews: Ocarina of Time

*This week's GBE2 is to write a post that's 100 words long, so here we go....*

Some strange reviewers   hate the highest rated video game of all time. Why? Because of "no voice acting," (Duh) "it started the decay of LoZ" (seriously?) and "it's hard to turn Epona around corners." (it's really not) And someone called it "linear." *rotfl*

Maybe these people don't know anything about Zelda or maybe they're crazed PlayStation fans. I can understand not liking a popular game, but a lot of these reviewers seem to hate it simply because they're "real, experienced gamers" and real gamers don't play "cutesy games" or such nonsense. Yeah right....

  1. I worked in a video store and worked with fellow gamers. They would talk about the old days and Zelda. Good post! =D

  2. Zelda is my favorite Nintendo game ever! :) I haven't had the chance to play the game you mentioned but I don't really know any people who have played it. I'm with you in that I heard a lot of good things about it. Maybe it's corny if an adult likes it, but I don't think that way.

  3. Don't know anything about games, but some people will criticize anything that's popular, simply because it is!

  6. Nice work. Never a Zelda fan, but I'm not about to diss it because it's popular or 'not played by REAL gamers'. Some people are just daft *chuckle*
