Legend of Zelda, The - Ocarina of Time (USA) ROM

As someone who has been playing Zelda games since the original was released on the NES, I feel like I know the series well. That said, The Ocarina of Time is a good game. It isn't the best game ever made, and it isn't even the best Zelda game.
Ocarina suffers from what I call "Final Fantasy VII Disorder". This is when a game in a series is the first that many people played. Since the series in general is well-made, people usually have fond memories of the game that introduced them to said series.
Ocarina has many great things going for it. The dungeons are vast, and boss battles amount to the sum of the skills you've been practicing throughout those dungeons. The game's simple mechanics work so well together that the game is more than the sum of its parts.
It does, however, suffer from the same thing that most games of this nature do. The camera gets in the way, box-pushing puzzles abound, etc.
The game is good, yes, but it isn't perfect. No game is. It is a fun diversion that will last you a few hours. Its just another example of over-hyping. If you like it, I recommend playing A Link to the Past and The Wind Waker.

The quintessential Zelda experience. If A Link to the Past didn't already pull you into this universe, Ocarina of Time certainly did. One of the most memorable games of all time.

When this game came out on the N64, it blew away my expectations. It still stands today as one of my favorite single player games of all time. You play as a young Kokori boy named Link who is destined to become the hero of time and defeat the evil Ganondorf. Along the way, you must clear dungeons which are full of monsters, exploring and puzzles. You will be armed with a ton of weapons which add to the experience and not to mention the gigantic world of Hyrule you have to explore. This game is a defenite get and I suggest you start playing this game now. 5/5

The timeless, epic adventure of a young, fairy-less boy from Kokiri Forest. With a sword and sheild in hand, Link travels across the vast land of Hyrule on foot, by horse, and even across time! Save Zelda and all the world through many dungeons, puzzles, and magnificent boss battles. A must for any N64 fan and Zelda enthusiast.

Before you get yours hands on the 3DS remake, go back to where it all began with The Legend of Zelda - Ocarina of Time on the N64. It was a stunning revolution in gaming excellence under story and gameplay. The graphics were beautifully integrated - a masterpiece in gaming history 101.
Play as Link the hero of Hyrule setting out on an adventure he was born to follow. Discover new locations and items. Investigate the darkest of underground temples. Advance through time and bring justice to the land. Your goal is to thwart the evil king Ganondorf.
This is a game that hasn't diminished it quality, only quantity - because we all keep coming back for more. Check it out here today!
