The Highest Rated game of all time on Metacritic. Considered the best game of all time by many. Thoughts?

Very overrated.

I think there was an old Zelda: Ocarina of Time thread somewhere else and I gave my opinion there in more depth.

You reall have to punctuate your sentences. I hella misread it by reading it, it's the best call... "It's the best! Call To Apathy reminds me of my ass." Even though that insult totally doesn't work.

I understand why people don't like it, esp. now, becaus it doesn't really get fun until the fourth or fifth castle. after that all the variation is sick... the underwater castle, the puzzles, all the hidden stuff and the time travel is really addictive. hard for people now to give it a chance because it looks so dated.

and it's "Ocarina of Time" not "Oscarina in Time"

I still consider Ocarina of Time to be one of my top five favourite games ever.

I think it deseves that spot, though I'm surprised that the Metacritic database goes that far back.

Ocarina of Time - I play this game once a year still. It is hands down the best game ever in my book. Twilight Princess I do think will surpass it - that will be huge.

Ocarina is timeless - I don't understand people who don't like it, really.

And yeah - the insult to call to apathy doesn't work at all.

Not only is it the best Zelda tied along with the original for the NES, it's also one of the best games ever made, due to its balance of gameplay, story and environment. Is it the pinnacle of all gaming, no. But it's in no way overrated, and is one of the greatest games ever made.

However, you do have your own opinion, and I will respect that.

I think Ocarina of Time is the best title in the LOZ seris. It's also the closest thing to an RPG I've played. It Remindes me alot of a good book, one thats fun and complelling and has a few new suprises in every new chapter. The developers obviously put alot of work into this game and I think it shows, they put an awful lot of detail into a very long campain (sp*)
When I went to play LOZ MM I came out with the impression that it was really more of an afterthought to OOT which was a much more complete game. Ocarina was really the peak of the parabola in the seris the other games simply seemed to go downhill from there. (execpt for the gameboy versions [seasons/ages] those were great!)

I liked ZELDA:Ocarina in Time so much for my N64 that when they brought it out for NGC I had to buy it.


On the road that I have taken,
one day, walking, I awaken,
amazed to see where I have come,
where I'm going, where I'm from.
