The article in question concerns Mike’s piece regarding whether or not an overhaul for the Zelda series is required after the, somewhat anti-climax, to Zelda: Twilight Princess. Mike writes:

“People generally don’t like to accept change. But change doesn’t always spell disaster. Final Fantasy introduces a totally new cast, setting and theme with each sequel and continues to please fans. Resident Evil 4 completely revolutionised Capcom’s horror series and is now viewed as one of the best games ever made … We still totally adore Zelda but eventually the appeal will tire and the series risks bombing. Nintendo needs to take the bold step and inject something totally new into Zelda. We’re not talking about a couple of new items, or a new location – that’s been done. We mean a significant change that affects the whole structure and gameplay.”

I, personally, agree with Mike’s overall sentiments. Twilight just ran out of steam for me – yes, it was great, but it could have been so much better.

Friday marks the release of The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess on the Nintendo Gamecube. It’s been over 8 years since Ocarina of Time was released – I simply cannot wait to play this game over Xmas! Zelda64 was, perhaps, the most complete computer game I have ever played – rivalled by only A Link to the Past. I have even booked two days holiday to play it!
