Why does your friend think I'm such an "asshole"? I'm quite a nice, laid out person in reality.

It's possible he has. Considering his Gamer Tag, how refined he is, and that he seems to justify his score very well, I think he did join just to reinforce his score.

But dude, you don't need to join to tell us that. If you have confidence in your reviewing capabilities, you're not going to go around, trying to justify your score. If you think it deserved an 8.8, then go ahead and think that. But if people don't want to agree with you over something so trivial, then you don't have to go around and try to convince them. It's not the end of the world.

Thank you, Pokchu for that comment. Anyway, the reason I signed up was because Alex Navarro linked me to a few sites that had a few vendettas against me. I just wanted to thoroughly state my own reasons and such and justify them, like you've previously stated.

Hey Jeff, how do you become an editor for Gamespot? Do you need a degree in Journalism.

I would like to review games

Don't worry about the Sheep Jeff, I'm glad you didn't give Zelda AAA

I don't blame you. Opinions are opinions. That's the bad thing about reviews in general. One can only truly know how a game is if they play it them self. Although I disagree with you, I respect it. I personally didn't think the controls were bad at all. In fact, everyone has been praising them. They felt absolutely natural to me. I'm getting the Gamecube version so I may make a comparison. Have you played that version yet? How did you like it?

Also, I was looking forward to voice overs, but the text is kind of a part of Zelda and it doesn't bother me one bit. I do agree with you on the music though. I still enjoy the music, but it could have sounded much better. The "Wiimote" speaker didn't bother me either. I liked it as a unique feature.

Some of your reasoning for giving it a lower score seemed picky at best. That's what I didn't like. Controls I can see but music, Wiimore speaker, and voice over? Especially voice over. That's more of your personal opinion, which, honestly, should stay out of your reviews. You have to take the game as a whole, not pick it apart. Haha, I know... I'm telling the professional what to do. That's just my opinion though. Minimal problems shouldn't lower a score over a point.

What I don't understand is why the differences in IGN's score and Gamespot's score was so radically different, yet they pointed out the same little peeves in the game.

I've had the game ever since the Wii launch and haven't beaten it yet, but it's not because I'm slow at it, it's just that my friend wants to see what happens as I go along so I wait for him to come and watch me play XD
