Zelda Twilight Princess: Wii or Gamecube?

[Saffith]

good ol' Like Likes

Nope.

Wallmasters,

No. There's something sort of similar in one level.

Gibdos,

Yeah, got those. They gave them big swords this time around.

Freezzards,

Oh, yeah. Nasty sons of bitches, those.

Wolfos,

Only the White Wolfos.

and even Torch Slugs?

Some of those, yeah.

The Lizalfos, Skulltulas, and Baris are back, too, as are the Helmasaurs and Stalfos Knights from LttP.


There are lots of places, enemies, items, and ideas returning from earlier games, but some of the changes are pretty surprising. Not unpleasantly so, mind.
I don't know what the hell happened to Kakariko, though. And I swear a couple of the bosses were influenced by Shadow of the Colossus, especially in level 3.

Ah yeah, forgot about the helmasaurs. They're so cute I almost dont want to kill them. I don't think it's too big a spoiler, but if you don't wanna know, stop reading this paragraph. You learn moves like you did in Zelda II, and it's kinda a nice homage. It seems like they tried to incorporate something from most of the other games.

Saffith I'm pretty sure the Gibdos you speak of are actually Redeads; they scream at you which freezes you then spank you with that giant sword. The "freezing scream" is a trademark of Redeads.

I found that they are much easier to deal with as a wolf than as Link.

[Thunderbird]

I remember Gidbos screaming and causing Link to freeze in place from OoT and MM as well, and they look more like Gidbos as well.

[AtmaWeapon]

I'll go ahead and say I'm wrong since two are in agreement and all I remember about Gibdos on the N64 ones is wearing that mask that makes them dance in MM

[Pineconn]

Ugh, no Like Likes? That's pretty much a staple of the series' enemies.

But yeah, both Gidbos and ReDeads scream at you. The Gibdos are outside the music house in Ikana Canyon, but ReDeads are in the Ancient Castle of Ikana and they dance, not Gibdos.
