Producer Eiji Aonuma talks about the challenges of creating a Zelda game better than Ocarina of Time.
While the mainstream media always sees things turning in favor of the hero, here are 6 games that own being a bad guy.
Pretty much all of these games listed are based around a morality system you don't have to be bad and you don't have to be good.
It seems to have left out some real amazing games like red dead redemption 1/2,ass effect and true crime la/ny
Armored Core VI?
Ok, I'm really missing something here. Just beat chapter 3 earlier this evening, unlocked A-rank Arena fights. I'm not seeing or sensing any branching paths or morality system and I've done every side mission and arena fight available to me up to that fight.
Is something big coming soon to branch the story?
No mention of Grand Theft Auto? Saints Row (original trilogy), Manhunt? Also The Suffering (depending on the ending you get).
Space opera fans deserve a chance to experience the vastness of Infinite Space, and Sega needs to make up for its mistake.
I still go back to Infinite Space from time to time. Probably the most underrated game I ever played.
Pac-Pix launched in 2005 as a Nintendo DS exclusive, and deserves to make a comeback on modern touchscreen devices.
Making a game better than Ocarina of Time will be difficult, especially since there is sentimental value attached to the game. However, hopefully the developers will mix up the formula in Zelda Wii like Aonuma said they would be a few days ago - That'll help the game stand out more than previous titles in the series.
"Topping Ocarina of Time" get real?
The problem with newer Zeldas is that Nintendo's adding too many silly things.
For example the art style of Zelda wind waker. It was nice but not what people really wanted. Majora's Mask was too confusing and the moon or whatever had a really stupid face. Then Twilight Princess came and many people thought that it was going to be the first Zelda game to top Ocarina of Time but then Nintendo ruined it with the wolf, midna, the stupid story and the usual silly looking characters.

When I saw that teaser for the first time I almost faint. It was like: OMG! Nintendo finally nailed it! Am I dreaming?! A fuking Zelda game with such dark/serious atmosphere, no silly looking characters around and very focused in the action? No way! *on top of that, Nintendo finally using CGI? OMG! (remember that back in the day CGI was huge thanks to FFVII)
All that anticipation and excitement to then get our dreams shattered with the announcement of Wind Waker... At least we got Metroid Prime! It is practically impossible to make a kiddy version of a Metroid game without completely ruin the series.

Just by seeing this: http://fc00.deviantart.net/...
I can already smell the failure. Just look at the art. What do you see? I see some leftovers of art from Twilight Princes... And a new silly character of course.
Seriously, this is so depressing... http://i69.photobucket.com/... Imagine that stupid sword following you around like Yorda in ICO...
This is why I jumped ship to Sony. Zelda was the only game that made me like Nintendo when everything changed after the Super Nintendo, and if they can't give me what I want then "F" it. I'm still in the fence, looking what will be next, I still have faith that someday Nintendo will craft the Zelda game I want to play. But with this newer Zelda they already started with the wrong foot.
OOT is already topped by Wind Waker, and all those who disagree, bite me >=D.
I dont know what Eiji Aonuma is talking about! ive been recently playing Ocarina of time on the virtual console and its still AMAZING. plus the game plays in 480p with widescreen ans looks awesome! but ya...it will be interesting to see how they are going to top it (if twilight princess already didnt?!)
