Game 294 - Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess
https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/a/forum/9/90c7fd42.jpg

5

8.5

Somehow underrated these days

9.3/10

9

8

8.5

Has its issues but still a great game

8.8/10

Really fun game

9

This one is spared my traditional low Zelda rating as I didn't even bother to play this one.

Have a feeling I'd like it more than the ones I'd played though. This one and especially Breath of the Wild looked kinda appealing but the well is poisoned.

I probably will play BotW though. Someday.

Apparently not underrated at all lol

B8 is apparently TP central

I can live with that

9.5

Honestly kinda thought about it and as much as the post master sword stuff felt rushed the dungeon design was really top notch

7

kinda boring but also fine

8.5

8.5...ish

I think this was the last Zelda I could be bothered to play.

9.5

One of the best Zelda games. The darker tone did it wonders, Midna was great, and the game was a focused enough affair that wasn't bogged down by padding or empty wasteland overworld (except in the one area where that was the point). I hope the next Zelda is more like this one tbqh

6.5

It's OK, kind of unfair but at the time had to judge it against the previous 3D Zeldas which had all been home runs

9

Having, at worst, the second-best set of dungeons in the series would be enough to earn this one high marks on its own, but I like pretty much everything else about it as well.

8.8

I will break my only .0s and .5s rule for this because it's actually right where I would rate it and it's funny.

8.5

7.5

7.5

8.8

10, its the best 3D Zelda.

9

6.5

8

8/10

Not the best 3D Zelda but it's still great.

nominate Final Fantasy XIII-2

Uh looking briefly

Golden Sun: The Lost Age: 7.5

pretty similar to the first one imo, both goo little JRPGs

Castlevania: Dawn of Sorrow: 8.5

played through this pretty quickly (been going through the GBA+DS vanias) annoying symbol thing aside this was a pretty solid one, second favorite of the bunch so far

7.6

Good game, picks up so much after you collect the first set of mcguffins. Held back substantially by having an abysmally slow first third, with three bad dungeons in a row. The Twilight sections are fascinating atmosphere-wise, and miserable gameplay-wise.

skipped all the 3D Zeldas between OoT and BotW

6.5

9

Specifically the HD remake for beefing up the difficulty. Playing on 4x damage mode was a lot of fun

8.5

8.8

8/10

When it's good (City in the Sky, Arbiter's Grounds, Snowpeak) it's great and when it's not it's a boring slog.

Up

8/10 for The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess

8/10 for Spider-Man and Venom: Maximum Carnage
