[Strider1982]

I don't think this has been mentioned yet, but according to IGN the title for the next GameCube Zelda game is "The Legend of Zelda: The Twilight Princess."

Apparently the title has to do with Link's supposed ability to morph into a wolf.

Ugh... both Nintendo.com and IGN are really slow. I guess everyone is trying to download the trailer.

I was pretty surprised to hear that Link can turn into a wolf. That has been a rumor for a long time, but I didn't think it was true. I'm getting even more excited about the new Zelda :D

Your welcome.

From what I've read and seen in the pictures, I wonder if Zelda transforms too? Maybe uncontrollably? Maybe into something evil? There is a part in the trailer with a person in a black cloak that looks like Zelda, and that reminds me a lot of that EGM cover with Link standing next to an evil looking being wearing a similar cloak...

Indeed, I'm not all about the name or about the changing into a wolf idea, which seems to be its selling point. But if the game itself is fun, i should be happy.

I was reading that there was a Manga about a curse between a knight and a princess and by night, the knight would turn into a Wolf and by day the Princess would be a hawk and that's what possibly this new Zelda is based off of...there was even a hawk flying onto Link in the trailer and 'Zelda' was outside when it was dark (zomg twilight?). I'll find the link in a bit.

http://cube.ign.com/articles/615/615045p1.html

"Of course, IGNcube has speculated for a great while that Link would likely be able to change into the beast, but the latest trailer is the first official proof of the action. There are all sorts of theories about how this mechanic may play into the game. A search of the title Twilight Princess on the Internet, however, reveals some interesting information. Apparently this is also the name of a Japanese manga which was inspired by the movie Ladyhawke. That film tells the story of a knight and his lady ruined by a horrible curse. The knight is forever cursed to transform into a wolf with the moonlight, just as the lady is cursed to change into a hawk at the first sign of sunlight. There is a possibility, albeit far from proven, that the new Zelda may mirror this storyline. Footage from the latest trailer seems to back this theory, as Link can be seen carrying a hawk on his arm as he explores certain areas. If Twilight Princess does follow the Ladyhawke storyline, that hawk would of course be Zelda."

I just finished watching the 2 hour E3 coverage on G4. Not that I haven't seen that stuff already, but it was interesting to hear them debate over the 3 different showings.

But back to point, I laughed a bit when the IGN editor on there called it "Ladyhawke the Game". (Not that he was making fun of it) :)

[AtmaWeapon]

Do you guys realize we're getting just as bad as Star Wars nerds when it comes to totally ruining a game because we don't agree with some trivial detail?

With the Wind Waker, you guys were all "WTF more like CELDA ahahahaha high fives all around guys!" and you almost ruined the game for me. Wind Waker was more of a Zelda game than the original. OoT is quite possibly one of my least favorite non-handheld Zelda games and it was quite a relief to see that Miyamoto could actually make a good 3d Zelda game.

Of course, he didn't make it the way you wanted it, so you whined and nagged and said "Why couldn't we get something more like the Spaceworld demo?"

Now you've got something more like the Spaceworld demo. It looks to be one of the most breathtaking games that will ever be available for the Gamecube and possiby one of the greatest games you will ever play. I am at a loss for words after watching the trailer and in a few short minutes I am probably going to end up paying $8 to see the 3 videos in their 640x480 glory.

But all you guys care about is Miyamoto didn't make it something like "The Awesome Quest". He apologizes, next time he'll let you name his game that he labored for years on. I'm sure we'll all enjoy "The Legend of Zelda: Link's Quest that is Better than All of the Others" and its sequel "The Legend of Zelda: Jumping out of Flaming Helicopters EXTREME EXTREME".

Seriously. When's the last time a game sucked because of its name?

Although I think "Twilight Princess" is a sort of weak title, it does not shake my faith that this will be an awesome, awesome game. The only thing I may not like about it is the (apparent) abundance of redeads and the like. All the weird ghost things really brought down some sections of OoT for me. I did like MM a lot though, and WW. Like I said, this game is going to be awesome, and it makes me glad that Revolution is backwards-compatable, because it will make it that much easier to go back and revisit the excellent Gamecube library in the future. :)

I really don't mind the title... I think it kind of fits with the dark and moody atmosphere the game seems to have.

I wouldn't be surprised if this was the first Zelda game to be rated "T."

The more I think about it, the more the wolf idea is starting to grow on me. I imagine it will kinda be like the bunny in ALTTP.

I also think the black and white with just greens and reds is a neat touch (since those are the only colors wolves supposedly see). This still remains the only game that I am even thinking about getting in the forseeable future.

Exactly. Nintendo is giving people what they wanted. (I wanted another cel shaded Zelda, but many people wanted a realistic Zelda) Everyone should stop nit picking and shut the hell up.

[Cloral]

Well if Link changes into a wolf, then skeletons and assorted undead would fit into the theme very well. Besides, it doesn't mean they all have to be like the redeads. There can be stalfos, skeleton archers, burning corpses, etc. There is a lot more variety possible with undeads than most realize.

But yeah, I agree that the redeads were fucking annoying. I hope they don't exist anywhere in this game, but I have a feeling that they will in at least one dungeon. Maybe as wolf Link I'll be able to jump on them and rip their heads off. That would be fun.

I just wanted another Zelda. I automatically assumed it would kick ass, and whaddya know? It does. Happy me. :cool:

Link turning into a wolf remimds me of Link turning into various creatures in Majora's Mask, which, as we all know, was very cool. Couple all of this with what we already know and you've got what looks set to be one of, if not THE, greatest Zelda games yet. The heck with God, in Nintendo we trust.


Well, so much for "The Legend of Zelda: The Reigns of Sorrrow" :shrug: Make a fan-game. Everyone else has, apparently.

EDIT: A little snippet that appears to have gone AWOL.


The new video also demos at length many of the new gameplay enhancements. In one scenario, Link canoes up a spectacular river, the water transparent and pristine. In another, he is flanked by multiple enemies while riding atop a horse, presumably Epona. In another, he is seen in wolf form, resting inside a dungeon. We can initially hear an odd crunching sound, but we don't know why. Then, something happens and all of a sudden we can see several ghostly rats gnawing on him. It's actually a bit shocking when viewed for the first time.
Canoes? w00t!

There better be a love story. Link hasn't gotten a smooch since the ending of Zelda II.

Ocarina of Time's ending still ticks me off. Save Zelda, kick Ganon's butt... and rather than the kiss he deserves Link becomes a prepubescent kid again.

Life must suck for Link.

Also, I hope there's real voice acting for once. Not just the "hee-hee" amd "YAAAHHHH" noises, but real speech, even for the seemingly mute and wordless hero himself.

Sheesh, even Star Fox Adventures had voice acting.

Well, I guess you're right... Link could end up sounding like a refugee from a boy band, and (shudder), that would seriously ruin the Zelda franchise's reputation.

I guess I can't help wondering what Link would sound like if he ever talked (not counting the old 80's Zelda cartoon!)

Well in Wind Waker, he said 'COME ON!!"

He sounded like how he would if he'd be a kid, I think.

There's no voice acting. Confirmed in an interview and then the gameplay footage shows it's all text like the others but the characters move their mouths like they're talking so that's cool.

I do not recall Link actually saying yee haw. According to what I have read, Link's voiceover for the demos is the same from OoT for now.

However, it does say "Yee Haw" when Link successfully drives the goats into the barn.

RE: Voices... Why not give everybody BUT Link voices? For an example of how this might work, play Half-Life 2. Have people constantly interupting Link, make him dismiss things with a hand gesture or a facial expression, have Zelda speak on his behalf... it could work really well!

Example..:

Townsfolk - "Well, howdy there! (Link's a cowboy, right? Bear with me here.) What's a fine lookin' fella like you doin' round these here parts?"
Link - (Points to Castle)
Townsfolk - "Oh, you're here to see the Princess, eh? Well, go right ahead, nobody'll stop ya."
Link - (Touches forehead, signifying thanks)
Townsfolk - "You're welcome there, young man."

...or maybe, if you've got Zelda with you...

Farmer - "Well now, how can I help you two?"
Link - "W..."
Zelda - "We need a pair of horses. Can you help us?"
Link - (Looks at Zelda, obviously irritated)
Farmer - "Well sure! I've got a few over here I can lend ya."
Link - "Th...
Zelda - "Thank you."
Link - (Looks at Zelda again. Crosses his arms and scowls at her)
Zelda - "What?"
Link - (Flings arms up in frustration and follows the farmer)

Link is a shepard, not a cowboy. Its just hard to translate shepard into japanese, so they used the word comboy instead.

[Strider1982]

Interesting line of professions running through Link and his descendants...kid wearing a blue crawdad shirt, shipwrecked sailor, Sworn Brother of the Gorons, Zora guitarist, gray-haired human/demon hybrid, Cucco catcher, Happy Mask promotional guy, and now a goatherder.

Link's family would have trouble running a steady family business for generations.

Has anyone wondered who that small person is with the red eye that rides on Link when he's a wolf is? He looks like a Skull kid just before he/she/it becomes all wooden.
Not only that, but in the E3 trailers, at the beginning - what is that portal? I thought I was watching Metroid Prime... then I realised that I liked it and wanted more.
Does anyone know more than me?

I guess its sort of like a darkness that is eating away at Hyrule and turning it into a dead world. When ever Link stumbles into this realm, he transforms into a wolf. Midna only exists inside this realm. Once you exit the realm, Midna is gone, and Link turns back into human form.

I'm still waiting for my July 2005 issue :(
