the best combination of bad gameplay and bad controls

djmanzi · 27-12-2008, 09:49 PM

the demo of this game really did look nice, but the game itself is annoying without end. I usually dont write such stuff because i know how much work it is to get something like that done. but at some points in the game, the frustration just can't become any bigger. plus the screen tearing (at least on my ps3 with sdtv) adds to the situation. at least great work on the looks.

Screen tearing?

Some parts can get annoying, but then I remember the hint button and it is so much easier! And you can always change the difficulty.

I've got it on the PS3 on Hd and the graphics are a bit jumpy, it like takes a second to go into focus. But I think the controls are great and I love the game.

Haven't you ever played zelda? now that's frustrating, this is a walk in the park.

It sounds like the PS3 version pales in comparison to the Xbox version from all the comments on every thread about it.. I could've guessed

No, i think it's just the disc. Whenever I put it in, my xbox gets really loud and makes an annoying buzzing noise for about 10 minutes.

This game does have some really annoying parts, I think I must have attempted some of the scenes (wall runs, mainly) over 100 times!

But having watched my friends play the same scenes without problem (then getting stuck elsewhere!) I don't think there is much to change. Despite the frustrations, I did play this game through to the end, which is kind of rare for me

The only thing that annoys me is my habit of actually jumping when I make Faith jump.

I get laughed at.

I do that too! If I'm sat down, I stand up when I press LB!

And I hate accidentally pressing LT instead of LB. It gets so annoying.

But I completely disagree with the original post. I think the game is brilliant, if not a little difficult at times, but it's not something that's going to make you return it.

Glad I'm not the only one.

you obvioulsy haven't played enough bad video games....the Zelda series is the most amazing series in video game histrory. Only being overshadowed by the Mario series because of 64 and Sunshine.
