The Syndicate

I'll consider it. Maybe. That shit gives me nightmares.

I loved the storyline for Wind Waker, and just recently replayed it a few months back. The only issue I really had with it was the tediousness of finding those damned maps in the end, paying up the butt to Tingle, and then going back out to find the danged Triforce pieces. I remember Ganon was hard as hell to beat the first time I played it (it took me several tries) but super fun. Loved the combat mechanics in that game, and I'm glad they've continued to provide and improve on that in the later 3D games I've played.

I love how dark Twilight Princess is, and even though she's not particularly helpful with bad guys, Midna is definitely my favorite sidekick (I do love sass when it's not directed at me ) Skyward Sword was also an incredible game. There are parts of it that scare the bejeezus out of me because I'm a wimp (this is why I won't play the aforementioned Bioshock. I could barely watch Epi and son play it :P )

Might buy a 3DS with some bonus money this year, might not. But I really wanna play A Link Between Worlds, because...why wouldn't I? I hear it's excellent. Anyone played it?

You don't even know what you've done.

I've played all except Zelda II (wasn't really interested in the side-scrolling weirdness), Four Swords (or anything holding that name), and any DS game due to my lack of funds to purchase said DS (I don't count the awful CD-i atrocities as actual games, and neither should anyone else. Yeah, I said it). My brothers used to play the shit outta A Link to the Past but I didn't get into it until much later when I fell in love with Ocarina of Time. Like, obsessively in love. Like, separation anxiety from letting Epi borrow my special disc with the game on it that I got for some promotion.

(It's okay, Bobby Brown - I still have the N64 version. I'll survive, and you need to play this game.)

Of all the geekdoms that ever graced the Earth to geek, Zelda is my absolute favorite. I will talk about that awesomeness all. Day. Long.
