I think you may be right actually. I hadn't realised the chicken could only fly about 1 metre in the air. Therfore it's not fit for the purpose I had in mind. Sorry... still it's kind of cool & I'm sure I'll find a use for it if I try.

Have to say, there is definately slowdown on the GC version, not sure if its different on the wii.

Just finished it, clocking in at 34 hours, so theres plenty to do.

A ten out of ten game? In most ways, absolutely, but its nowhere near as good as OoT, sorry. I found myself being really let down by the dungeons, which heavily borrowed ideas from other zelda games. The only dungeons that I thought were awesome was the first one, the water one and the desert one, but even that borrowed heavily from the forest temple from OoT. The other dungeons were either too short, too linear or too easy. Just comparing them to the genius of the OoT temples, they were pretty rubbish. The last two were a joke.

I think the 8.8 IGN score got it pretty spot on.

Agreed. I also loved the Snow temple, but temples 6 and 9 were a little bit of a let down after the superb earlier ones.

The story telling was bang on though - really good.

Side quests were far shorter than I imagined and not enough of them. I'm just about to complete and I've done 50 hours - mind you i've got 40 of the 45 heart pieces, all the bugs and everything else, though there's a few poes to mop up...
 
At long last! Got my Component! Had my Wii Since release and havnt been able to get one!

Got the Official one and it gets to big thumbs up from me!

Monkey Ball looks immense now! So does Red Steel! Zelda not so much which is a bit weird!?!?

As it's essentially a GameCube port, I wouldn't expect much of it to be honest. As you've rightly said, the 'proper' Wii games are much nicer.

I decided to do a bit of wandering just before the third temple and I found the fishing hole and boat ride. Wow! I can't see how anyone can complain about the graphics on this game, they are absolutely stunning.
 
Last night I came across one of the coolest bits so far.

I won't spoil it for anyone but all I'm saying is that it's when your on the Horse .

Everyone whos done it will know which bit I mean! :D

Finished Zelda the other night, but there's so many bits with you on your horse I don't know which specific bit you mean! :p

I did enjoy the story of the snow monster though, that was really good.

Especially when you kill the boss and link rears the horse up whilst swinging his sword with the light in the background.


Looks awesome :D graphically stunning as well

You need to visit someone in Hyrule castle, well, the town part.

They give you a bigger wallet, with 600 limit, but I still have no problems keeping it full, I seem to find lots of orange rupees (100 each)

Mate, this game is so much better now ive found 5/6 of the howling stones! The new moves add to the game so much i would have thought they would be there at the start!

Love it!

Finding poes in the sand place at the mo!

Quick question, is there something to be gained in finding all the poes, not just the 20 or so the guys asks for when you meet him?

I haven't done it myself - but I think I read somewhere that its not overly worth it - think it could be unlimited cash - but hunting all 60 would take ages, i've got 48 I think....

I'd hunt for bugs and heart container pieces first tbh.
