btw, i forgot wind Waker for some reason...good thing the great and knowledgeable Cory remembered!
@Cory - for editing my post.
I also forgot the minish cap and four swords. How do you edit the polls. Is it mod-only?

Choose the same as me Number 2 3 and 4 lol Yay Im the first to vote
Well I chose link's advemture (aka Zelda II) cuz it was the first one to have action RPG in it!
I also chose LoZ a link to the past (SNES) because I really was in loved withthat game when it first came out for the SNES and spent hours on the game and had good graphics for that time and finished it at least 10 times already!
And finally I chose OoT just to make Cory happy and cuz I bought it on VC even thought I didnt start playing the game yet and heard so much good stuff about it and it's one of the only games that got a 10/10 in reviews

That was a pretty amazing video Jody...I don't know how they did that!
By the way, has anyone noticed that OoT has the most votes? That isn't a coincidence...

Great picks Jody! Those are exactly my choices!!!
I'll go into my long rant later
@Firegremlin - I'd advise you to play them all! You can't really go wrong, but you'd probably be best off starting off with A Link to the Past, then go to Ocarina of Time, and then either Majora's Mask or Twilight Princess.

I'd love to play A Link to the Past, Ocarina of Time and Majora's Mask but how? I don't have an N64 or SNES or whatever console it's on. yes, I could in theory buy the games off the wii shop channel BUT that would cost at least 1500 points which is quite expensive to buy on games (my parents are really cheap when it comes to 'unimportant things' >_>) ~firegremlin~

How much are 1,500 points worth (preferably in $$$$)? I don't suppose you could talk them into it for a Christmas present? (EDIT: Do you celebrate cristmas?)

just keep in mind that OoT was one of the only games to ever get a 10/10 on IGn when it was released. Too bad TP only got a 9.5, which i believe was about the same as wind Waker, (which is still a superior game!)

@Jody - I wouldn't say that. Ocarina easily beat Windwaker and everything up until Twilight.
You know, when I first played TP I would have said that it easily beat Ocarina, just because it had been so darn long since I had played a REAL LoZ...but after reading Cory's arguments, I decided to replay it and.....I still think Twilight is better, mainly because of the story, but it definetly wasn't a hand's down victory....
P.S. Don't worry, in 7-8 years Cory will be raving at how great this game is, how dare Nintendo make a new game to take it's place, and that nothing could beat it.....just like he did with Ocarina and WindWaker....
Just Kidding!!!

YOU LIKE WINDWAKER BETTER THAN TWILIGHT PRINCESS?!??!?!!
That's truly ironic. I was just thinking that all your arguments against TP being the best LoZ fit PERFECTLY on WW, lol. The graphics were part of it, but.....it didn't really feel like a LoZ game....The game was probably the easiest LoZ of all time.....and as for the story......let's not talk about that, lol.
It did have great music, the puzzles were good, and it was fun exploring an over-sized Lake Hylia. It just felt like the story wasn't there....it was just a bad excuse to keep going......and I hate Cel-shaded Link for killing Young Link
IMHO Windwaker proves that Link's worst is still Nintendo's best.
To each his own, I guess....
P.S. As for IGN's rating, hmm
IGN is a good reviewer on the technical side of things (graphics, voice acting, etc... as opposed to story, gameplay, etc...), which is why Ocarina was a guarenteed winner and Twilight didn't stand a chance - Think about it - Ocarina was the first 3-D LoZ, with great graphics for it's day, it was one of the best games of all time, and Nintendo wasn't as far behind in graphics. Twlight only had the second...(remember, they're comparing it's graphics to the PS3....a 9.5 is pretty high rating, considering....)

Well you bring up some good points Smashed. But I still maintain this list:
1.Ocarina of Time 2.Wind Waker 3.Majora's Mask 4.Twilight Princess
Why? I think ultimately because I was expecting so much more from Twilight Princess. Am I saying it's a bad game? no, not at all. The graphics were indeed good, and the storyline was original with Midna and such. HOWEVER, i still feel it lacked the charm the other games possessed. It almost felt forced to me, lik they were simply trying to appease the OOT crowd after a perceived loss with Wind Waker.
True, many people complained about WW's art style, even i had my doubts. But after playing it, I found it to be a refreshingly new start...I couldn't compare it to OOT in the same way, because it simply wasn't like OOT.
TP on the other hand TRIED to be OOT, it brought back all these little hints from the last game, and even had a storyline that was relatively similar. But for me, trying to be another game means i will criticize it more harshly. As i said, TP lacked the charm and character OOT had....every little aspect of OOT was memorable...right down to the average townsperson to the hidden holes across the world. And OOT had a real sense of adventure...there were hidden things everywhere, and you never knew what to expect..i just never felt that in TP.
And speaking of easy, TP was BY FAR the easiest Zelda game made. I never came close to dying, in fact, i wished I would die just for a bit of a challenge. Alas, it didn't happen. It might have been longer than WW, which was a plus, but I want quality over quantity...and even if some aspects of TP were cool, and there were some, like the Temple of Time and the massive, open world, it was ultimately the ending of the game which was the final nail in the coffin for me. Ganondorf was absent for most of the game, then all of a sudden you're fighting him, and when you win, he just collapses and it's over with. Link rides off, end of story.
Of course, I'll get some massive counter arguments, but I think some of the points i've made are indisputable if anyone has played these games in full.

ok three things: 1) you write far too much! how can you play a game so intently as to write a whole essay on it? 2) if I say 'oot' to myself one more time I swear I'm going to kill someone 3) cory is an ocarina of time fanboy, end of story
