Which Zelda is the best?

[~SilverSoul]

so what is your favorite Zelda game. There has been a large debate going on between OoT, WW, and TP. I personally like WW the best. Which one is your favorite?

 

[Banjora Marxvile]

I prefer the Majora's Mask. All Zelda games have the same plot style - save the princess and unlimited time, which makes it seem, well, quite easy cos you could just stop. Majoras Mask has a time limit. True you can go back in time to the beginning of the 1st Day, but you would lose all stock of items and any keys in the dungeons. Also the plot isn't save the princess for once.

Windwaker by a mile and a half.

Ocarina of Time was ofcourse amazing for its era but windwaker was innovative and showed that nintendo was not afraid to venture into new fronts.

:)

I was about to say Ocarina, simply because it's the best game of all time, let alone the best Zelda. I'm certain that the majority of votes will be for this...

Having said that, my personal fave is A Link to the Past. Mostly because of its length and its tricky puzzles... and the "Zelda is your sister" conspiricy.

 

[Roy G. Biv]

OoT is great if you don't mind the ancient graphics

Wing Waker is great and truly stylized ^^

Twilight Princess is better than the two above. Epic win

My favorite is Phantom Hourglass :)

Edit: 100th post FTW!!

I'm probably going to get loads of flamers saying "Ocarina of time ftw. Windwaker!!!11111. Twilight princess, the graphics!!" but I say Majoras Mask.
Yes, it didn't have as many dungeons as the other games did however, it had Deku, Goron, Zora and not to mention Fierce Deity Link.
I thought that was really made the game unique as well as the epic story.
Sure, the others were good, but my favourite goes to Majoras. My second favourite.... probable OOT. I prefer the oldies. XD
Plus in Majoras Mask, the fairy had a attitude. And, if I remember correctly, didn't go "Listen! Hey! Listen!" for once.
Also, I loved the Kafei subplot. It was fun, intresting and just one of my favourite subplots of all time.
It wasn't like the other Zelda game subplots which were useless.
I thought Twilight Princess was not as good as the others (sorry to the fans:()
It borrowed music from loads of the other games, I think Kakariko was in a completely different place in comparison to Ocarina.
Also, I found it slightly boring to play (for the Wii, anyway. :()
Edit: I completely forgot about A Link to the past! That could possibly be my second favourite. Its definitely up there. :D

 

[Tenbinza]

My fave has to be Four Swords, because it's the first multi-palyer Zelda game.
Sure, Ocarina of Time, Wind Waker and Twilight Princess are great, but seeing four Links fight each other to get the most Rupees while cooperating to save Zelda is so fun!

 

[Live in Color]

Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time
Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess

Both were amazing, it's too hard to pick just one. XD

 

[~SilverSoul]

Ah man, it is so close for me. WW is great with the cartoon graphics dungeons and everything.
OoT is great if you get you get your mind off the graphics.
Majora's Mask had great sidequests, mainly getting masks, of course. The only thing that bugged me was when you had to protect the cows from aliens.
Four Sword Adventure is a great multiplayer game. I play it all the time with my friends and it is really fun. My friends get jealous though because I was the best, and a little of the leader. I think I was always Shadow Link at the end ^^
TP... Would've been my fav if it didn't miss this one thing: difficulty. The game had amazing graphics, story plot, music, everything, but it was way too easy.

 

[Aegis]

Majora's Mask, by far <3 I love that game to pieces. I guess I like it best because it has a lot of side/extra content, and doesn't feel as straight-forward in the story line. I love being able to stop playing the main story line and going to get a mask, it helps to break up the game :> And the story was amaaazing <33 I love the idea of the moon crashing into the town like that; and it's not just the main story line that was awesome, all the side stories were good too.

So yeah, Majora's Mask gets my vote <3

 

[Sydian]

Ocarina of Time was the most epic, Twilight Princess was the most anticipated, and Wind Waker is the only one I've beaten. And the original is the original.

So obviously, my vote goes to Oracle of Ages.

Kidding.

My vote goes to the game that put 3D gaming on the spot:

Ocarina of Time.

 

[Mitchman]

OoT and oracle twins. Those two where epiclly great.

 

[YOOM-TAH]

All/most of them are awesome games.

That said, Twilight Princess is at least 100 times better than any other Zelda game. Easily. The best in every department. Best story, best bosses, best dungeons, best original items, best graphics, best sound, best game mechanics...the list goes on. People knock on its difficulty, but COME ON. EVERY ZELDA GAME IS JUST AS EASY.

 

[Ivysaur]

Majora's Mask, it's a game that keep getting better each time I play it. It is the darkest game of them all, the background history behind the shown plot is AMAZING, and the lack of save points make it a good challenge. The water dungeon there is probably the most annoying of all, specially if you aim for the fairies, and the last dungeon gets really hard with the time limit. Heck, only TP's sky dungeon got somewhat near to Stone Tower's annoyingless level.

Second would be WW, but MM is my really favourite <3

 

[Jeremy]

Well sweetie, it's tough to choose between WindWaker and Ocarina of Time. XD I love them both. x3

 

[Legobricks]

How could you miss the Faces of Evil and the Wand of Gamelon? D:

no srsly

 

[apolloman]

Majoras Mask al the way!!!! it was just so orginal and struck the perfect balance between plot and and gameplay. It was a welcome change to saving the princess and slaying gannon.
My favourate part was being able 2 go back and beat all the boses again(the best was snowpoint temple) and we got to see alternate versions of all the old characters we fell in love with from OOT

 

[Vanilla Kitsune]

Ocarina of Time fo' shaw.

That, or Majora's Mask. Majora's Mask is darker and the gameplay is slightly more challenging IMO.

 

[Warheart]

Im'a go with the obvious answer here, and vote for OoT.

I've never actually played MM, so I can't really judge whether or not it was better, but OoT was the first Zelda game I actually played through from start to finish, and damn..I have so many memories of that game.

...Darn Water Temple sucked so much T__T

 

[Kraka-chan]

How could you miss the Faces of Evil and the Wand of Gamelon? D:

no srsly

Well, technically, they're not officially part of the Zelda canon.

Having said that, there are also other Zelda games that don't quite fit anywhere in the Zelda timeline. But I'm going off topic now.
