i've seen it, it looks good, doen't it have some weird cell shading thing goin on?

sabman · January 30th, 03:33 PM

argh i hate cell shading, it was nice at first, but now its overused

**imhungry** · January 30th, 03:36 PM

i agree, but this is totally different. i think the new zelda looks like crap, i hate the zelda series so i don't care

**Junket** · January 31st, 06:02 AM

Have you ever played Legend of Zelda: The Ocarina of Time? Dang man, you're missing out if you haven't. That's one of my personal favorites.

**M0NK3Y** · January 31st, 09:10 AM

yes, the ocarina of time is a classic, i thought it was even better than majoras mask

**Rice Cruiser** · January 31st, 09:49 AM

i liked how in majoras mask there is tons of things to do, but it got very repeatative. and .hack the movies are anime drawings and the game is not in cell shading, but it looks real good.

Good thing it's not cel-shaded because in the future (circa PS3), we will be so flooded with cel-shaded games it'll make us wanna barf on Sony. They're thinking of incorporating a purely cel-shaded engine to accompany their "next-gen" emotion engine.

Back to the original topic: .Hack. I have read some things about it and I'm looking forward to playing it. Bandai has really outdone themselves with this one with their innovative ideas, which, candidly, is a shock to most gamers because Bandai is not known for its creativity, if you know what I mean.

yeah that will suck with all the cell shading, but .hack comes out 2/11, and if u order it from ebgames u get a $5 rebate, which is pretty cool

**imhungry** · January 31st, 03:19 PM

ocarina of time was the only good one. r u guys nuts! majoras mas was by far the worst zelda ever. it was extremely rushed, had the WORST puzzles ever, and the concept sucked, every 3 days (not in real time) u have to do everything over again. i beat the game completely (all the masks, including fierce deity's mask) and i thought it was the most tedious gaming experiance ever. it was fun for the first few days, then got horrible. links awaking and link to the past were ok to. i wa thinking of another game, not .hack. the game that is cell shaded is called 7 or something, but i has a number in the title

**Spudchucker** · January 31st, 03:25 PM

i agree- ocarina was the greatest game ever

but um... what is this "cell shading"

**imhungry** · January 31st, 03:35 PM

first of all, ocarina was a far cry from the greatest game of all time. secondly, cell shading is when the use cells of differet color variations to give depth and a some what 3-d view (looks like a cartoon). it is good in concept, horrible in reality, just gives me a head ach and takes away from the gameplay
