Terrible
on September 1, 2009
Posted by: Magic8ball
This game was simply awful. I even went all out for the joystick package and when I play I have no fun at all. The only reason its remotely difficult is because the AI just fly's in circles and when you die you start the mission all over again. The ground looks like cardboard. The only "teammate" that talks is sooooooo corny and useless when he talks (and he talks all the time). The menu is also really annoying because there is very little to it so it looks horrid. I understand the were going for a military look and feel but with such a bad story line they should have just put planes in the background.
Main point there is nothing about this game that makes it worth the small price of $20 dollars.
What's great about it: the game manual has a section to add notes. i know right awesome
What's not so great: terrible graphics, terrible acting, terrible story line, terrible interface, terrible AI

Meh

Its fun when you get into it but sometimes I dont feel like playing because of traveling by foot. Its very boring to go through the subways (you walk through them to get to places) and its easy to get lost. It is fun however when you are fighting. And the good evil thing makes the game a lot more interesting even though its really hard to be good. Another thing I dont like is you spend a ton of time designing your character and you cant ever see his or her face unless you are getting a haircut which is just editing his face. The only thing you can see is skin color and basic body shape.
What's great about it: Great graphics, interface and controls. Exciting when fighting
What's not so great: You have to travel long distances by foot to some quests

SynopsisDarkness casts upon the land of Hyrule, where evil lurks around every corner. The peaceful borderlands are in danger and only the powers of one man/creature can defeat such gloom. Link, a young farm boy, is destined to save the kingdom from such tragedy. After being directed by the mayor to attend the Hyrule Summit, Link sets off for the Twilight Realm. Upon his arrival, he transforms into a wolf and is captured. With the magical help of Midna, a mysterious being, Link is set free and off to battle against foul creatures.Besides his trusty sword and shield, Link fights his opponents on horseback with a bow and arrow. Maze-like puzzles stand between Link and the peace of the land, so wits must be sharp to discover hidden weapons and items. As you ride into combat against challenging enemies, your bravery will be tested and a new legend will be born. Use the power and unique control of the Wii Remote and Nunchuk controller for precise aiming, special sword attacks, shield shoves and even fishing.

Definently a rent
on July 15, 2008
Posted by: Magic8ball
well lets just start of saying the campain is horrible. if i were you i would cheat and unlock all missions just to mess around. pointing at the screen gets old very fast becuase if you point somwhere else the cammera goes crazy. the controls also go against eachother because you can do a melea (sorry i dont know how to spell(that) attack by swinging the nunchuck left and right but sometimes the game counts this as up and down which is how you pick up an item and throw it. you can also press the c button so its poinless to have the vertical motion even as an option. it looks pretty pathetic when you go to hit and enemy and instead he attemps to pick him up.
What's great about it: destroying the city
What's not so great: campain. pointing at the screen

Not much variety
on June 22, 2008
Posted by: Magic8ball
this game would be a lot more fun if there was more variety. there is a sniper mission that i really like. the only other mission different from the rest is a airstrike mission. you kill the enemy from a bomber plane which isnt that great. the only way you can lose in that mission is if you kill a friendly or a civilian. the rest of the game is the same thing over and over and over and over.

not the headset you may think
on June 18, 2008
Posted by: Magic8ball
this headset is almost the same as the one that comes with your xbox except the volume control isnt on the area you plug into the controler its on the wire. its also harder to ajust the volume. the headset comes out of the controler often to because there is a small area that goes in.
What's great about it: communication
What's not so great: volume control
I would recommend this to a friend!
