Zelda majaros mask pc download

When Nintendo announced their decision to use cel-shading for the next Zelda, there were few initially who were enthused about the idea to say the least. Reducing Link from the realistic, highly detailed action hero many were hoping for, to essentially a goony looking cartoon didn't sit well with many die hard Zelda fans, including me. I however, have been converted as Nintendo's risk has paid off significantly with another fantastic Zelda game. Download it once and read it on your Kindle device, PC, phones or tablets.

The integrated save system will not save your progress. You can save your progress in whatever point you like within the game, not only on the official checkpoints offered by the game. Home Emulators Platforms Games. All N64 Games. I speak from experience.

Like most adventure games apart from Holy Magic Century, which took the brave step of not bothering with all that tedious discovering stuff in favour of hour after hour after hour of random monster attacks Zelda has loads of puzzles and problems that have to be solved before Link can progress.

Some of them are straightforward enough -anyone who's ever played Tomb Raider will feel right at home with the sliding block sections. Other parts require more imagination to solve. Some of the puzzles seem impossible to work out at first, until with a mighty slap of the head and a cry of "Duh! If you remember that all the necessary clues and items are available by the time you reach a puzzle, and that for the most part things behave as they do in the real world, you'll get there in the end.

If you ever get stuck, then it's almost certainly your fault for not exploring the vicinity properly. In the whole intensive odd hours play at Nintendo HQ, there was only one time - quite near the start of the game - when Link had to go back to an earlier point to get something he'd missed in order to solve a puzzle.

The rest of the time, when you reach a problem, the means of solving it is either a short distance away or already in your grasp - you just have to work out how to use it. Just as a hint to new players, which won't spoil the game at all, once you've been given the ocarina it's worth going back and finding the person who gave it to you again before you begin the main adventure.

It'll save you a walk later on! Just how big a game is Zelda? In the course of two days at Nintendo of Europe's headquarters, 64 Magazine put in about 22 hours of play. To put this in perspective, it took 12 hours to complete just the first, relatively straightforward part of the adventure, at the end of which Link winds up seven years older. According to Nintendo, a player who has already completed the game, knows where everything is and how to defeat all the enemies, would take about 40 hours to reach the finish.

As well as the main quest to save Hyrule, there are all kinds of smaller missions, challenges and amusing subgames to do on the side. Some readers gave us stick for saying Banjo-Kazooie was challenging when they finished it in no time. Well, apart from saying that these people should get out more, we can confidently say that it will be quite a while before Zelda gives up all its secrets.

Remember, you need to eat and sleep and stuff like that. Obviously it wouldn't be a proper 64 Magazine review without finding some things to complain about, so here goes; once you've figured out the pattern of a boss's attack you can always beat them without harm; you can't speed up text, only skip it; the targeting system occasionally takes a few tries to lock on; narrow corridors put the camera too close behind Link for comfort; the chirpy music drills into your head like a Cerebral Bore and won't leave.

As far as things wrong with the game go, that's pretty much it. You'll live with them. If you have an N64, buy this game. If you don't have an N64, buy one, then buy this game. That's how good it is. Nintendo's problem now is that they've created a game that's so good, it's hard to see how they can top it. But then, people said that about Super Mario 64 , and compared to Zelda, Mario is just a demo knocked up in someone's spare time.

Even Goldeneye looks a bit anaemic alongside Zelda. With less than 13 months to go, it's a fairly safe bet that nothing more stunning is going to come along before the turn of the millennium. Even if you're one of those smart-arses who witters on about the millennium not really starting until it still applies. If you don't buy Zelda 64, you're missing out on the game of the century. We flew all the way to Japan to interview Zelda creator Shigeru Miyamoto in his secret underground train that whisks him around Japan.

No we didn't. We got this from the press release like everyone else. But it's still interesting stuff So, Shiggsy; what do you think is the secret of a great game? Well, I think the most important factor is the correct mixture, ie the weighing of the different elements of a game.

My successful principle bases on a 70 to 30 percent share, that is to say 70 percent of tasks to be performed and the remaining 30 percent of secrets and mysteries to be unveiled and solved by the player. How does Zelda 64 compare to Mario 64? In the creation of Super Mario 64, I was actually the director of the game, this time I am the producer.

In Zelda 64, there are actually four directors, responsible for different fields of the game. How many people were cracking away on Zelda? About persons, the biggest development team ever involved in the creation of a game! Additionally, we closely co-operated with another company to perfect the programming of the adventure. If we add this group to our own team, I can say that about persons were involved. How big's this sucker, then?

This is a difficult question to answer, for the playing time depends on each player and on his individual skills. I think that it will take a versed player at least 40 hours of gaming to finish the adventure. Nintendo has had a great history with the Zelda series of games and it was always presumed that a bit version would appear around the same time as the new machine.

This one looks like it might be a little late however, since Nintendo plans to release it at the same time as its top-secret Ultra 64 device, currently known as the Bulky Storage Device.

Not much is known at present with regards to how Zelda will play, but similar puzzles and an all-new 3-D environment are definite inclusions. The character animation is incredible. The main question up until now with every new Zelda game has never been "is it good? Instead it's "how good is it?

Majora's Mask is not really a new take on Zelda--most everything from the controls Z-targeting, auto jumping to the items fire arrows, the Lens ofTruth, Hookshot to even the characters return from the last N64 Zelda, Ocarina of Time.

Graphically you might even mistake them for the same game, although Majora's Mask seems to use the required RAM Expansion Pak for a few larger open areas.

But similar to how the Super Nintendo version of Zelda improved on the original NES title, this new N64 edition doesn't totally rethink the game, but rather refines and polishes the gameplay using the same overall shell. The biggest gameplay change is the fact that, for most of the game, you don't play as Link. You play as Goron Link, Deku Link or Zora Link-transformations with all new powers whose identity Link assumes when he wears certain masks.

The beauty of Majora's Mask is how it uses the different advantages, disadvantages and special abilities of each of these forms; they are seamlessly woven into every part of the game, from secrets scattered throughout the overworld, to all the people you interact with, to the ingenious dungeon puzzles.

The other inspired difference is the new importance of time: Taking place over three repeating days, what time it is in Majora's Mask becomes as important as where you are and sometimes, who you are in figuring out many of the game's devilish puzzles and subquests.

Even if you are one of the lucky few to find a PS2 on launch day, you won't find a better game for any system in the stores this Oct. I still think Ocarina of Time is one of the best games ever made, so it's no small thing when I say Majora's Mask is even better. The "Wow" factor of being in a 3D real-time Zelda game for the first time is gone, but the thrill of exploration is still there and the controls and actual gameplay are stronger than ever.

Swimming with Zora link, rolling around with Goron Link, and flying with Deku Link make getting from place to place a lot easier and more enjoyable this time around. Zelda: Wind Waker easily makes its mark as one of the best GameCube games to date.

With exceptional gameplay many have come to expect from the Zelda, Nintendo once again successfully rejuvenates one of its older franchises on the GameCube. Skip to content Home. Search for:. Overall rating: 9.
