So this game has been in my Wish List for a while and is finally on sale today. Has anyone played it? It looks like a Wind Waker or Link to the Past game, and I love those games. I hate poorly done knockoffs though.

Anyone played it for have any thoughts?

On my wishlist too. Tempting, but Best Buy has Far Cry 4 for 19.99, so I may get that on the way home. F' It, I'll just end up getting both.

It is very much like Wind Waker. Wind Waker wasn't my favorite Zelda, but I figured I'd give this a shot. It isn't bad, it definitely has a Zelda feel, but it was originally a phone game..and even though they redid it, you still get that feeling from it.

It's not a short game, and there's lots to find, but I find it to be a bit repetative (but then, so was Wind Waker). There's alot of back and forth to the islands.

Definitely has the Zelda feel to it. Pretty linear so far. Nothing horribly wrong with the game, but nothing that wow's you either.

It is WAY linear and the level design is 100% platformy which is a bit different than Wind Waker which uses more naturalistic world design.

Been playing for a little bit. Definitely a Wind Waker clone. But its fun. We dont get this kind of thing on Windows very often.

There is only so much Crysis 3, Max Payne 3 and Hitman Absolution I can handle. This looks like a good change. Thanks.

Love Zelda style games. I just hope it isnt too short. Of course, I'll be using a Xbox 360 controller.
