  • Abstract:  The past few Zelda games, while still very good, have been designed around gimmicks. Phantom Hourglass and Spirit Tracks featured touch controls and Skyward Sword hung its hat on motion controls. The first original 3DS Zelda game, The Legend of Zelda: ...

  • Abstract:  The top-down Zelda games started as console releases on the NES and SNES, but as 3D graphics took precedence, the flatter rendition of Hyrule was relegated to the portable platforms. Some have been better than others (here's to you, Minish Cap), but virtu...

  • Abstract:  I've waited a long time to play a Legend of Zelda game that made me so giddy that I couldn't stop playing. Now, that's not to say I didn't enjoy The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword, nor the previous DS titles, but I could do without playing for days on end...

  • Abstract:  Thanks to modern 3D graphics, it's been a while since we've seen a traditional top-down Zelda game. The Legend of Zelda: A Link Between Worlds on the 3DS has given Nintendo the opportunity to resurrect that perspective while giving us some modern twists...

  • Do you really have to ask?Look, if you have a 3DS/XL/2DS, buy The Legend of Zelda: A Link Between Worlds.If you don't, and you like videogames, start saving for a 3DS now. My only regret is not ordering the special edition so I could get that funky chest...

  • Amazing story, 3D graphics and music; Shadow Link battles through StreetPass; greater freedom to explore the world
  • Renting weapons can be irritating sometimes; short initial dungeons
  • A great reinvention of the long-running Legend of Zelda seriesNintendo has really outdone themselves with “A Link Between Worlds” and the unique gameplay mechanics reinvigorates a series that is 27 years old and make it feel new again. The graphics are be...

  • Abstract:  The first Zelda game I played was A Link to the Past on the SNES. It absolutely captivated young me. I must have spent weeks on it back then, exploring every corner of Hyrule and the Dark World to try and find every single item and heart piece. I've been...

  • Brilliantly judged, hours of gameplay, homage to classic Zelda titles, new mechanics make for whole new game, taxing dungeons require thought
  • Recycled map might be over-familiar, same old story, occasional stutter when pushing into a new screen on the map
  • Zelda: A Link Between Worlds may sound like a remake of the classic A Link To The Past, but it's oh so much more than that. It draws on all that was good about the classic game, adds in some new gameplay elements, entirely new dungeons and gets the...
