Knight of Five Revienws 5
Hello and welcome to the great fifth Review. What makes this review so great? IT is because it is number five and I am the Knight of Five! So that makes it great. So I have decided to break one of my normal rules and decided to review one of my favorite games of all time. PUT THAT COOKIE DOWN! Sorry had to put something random in here. In celebration of this event I even baked and have ate a whole batch of peanut butter cookies with Hershey kisses on them. They were good. Now on to the review of one of the greatest games of all time and the first game that I had ever beat. The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time.
This game was given to me and my sister when we got our N64. My mom played it the most at first, but then my true skill at games came out and I became the best gamer in the house. Now I have beaten this game 50 times. Actually counted out and set in stone I have really beaten this game 50 times. Yes I have no life, except for a job, going to school, trying to get a girlfriend so yeah no life at all. Let us get started.
Game play 8/10:
The game play in this game is great. It is the first 3d Zelda game and it did a great job. It is fun to play and explore Hyrule in the third dimension. The controls are simple and easy to grasp and flow really well. The game flow is great and makes. Surprisingly for being the first 3d Zelda the hit detection is excellent. Even after this long it is still considered one of the greatest Zelda games. I give it an 8/10 because of the great game play and design.

Length 9/10:
The game has the standard Zelda length of nine unique levels. As a matter of fact the levels and bosses from twilight princess remind me a lot of the levels from this game… oh well I guess they know a great thing when they see it. The length is excellent not to long yet not too short. The levels are about the right length; normally by the time you want to beat them they are about done. I give it a 9/10 because of the great length of this game.

Storyline 8/10:
This game has a great storyline. Starting with the young link and then later adult link, you get to meet creative characters and the story is just great with each race having their own great area and problems that you have to solve. This was also the first Zelda to have a direct sequel Majora’s Mask and the indirect sequel Wind Waker. I give this game a 8/10 for its great storyline that is so entertaining I have beat it 50 times and still find it interesting.

Characters 9/10:
This game features great characters like of course Link in both of his forms. Also Zelda goes from doing nothing to showing up as Sheik. Also you meet characters like Princess Ruto, who is much better than Rutellu or whatever the Zora queens name was from Twilight Princess. (Not a knock off at all.) Also you have the running guy who evolved into the mailman that we know and find creepy. If you have played the games and do not remember him he is the guy you give the bunny hood to. Not to mention the skull kids come into the field and they are just creepy as hell. I am going to wrap this up because otherwise I am just going to keep prattling on and on like teenage girl talking about shopping, (Excuse me teenage females that do not do that.)

Graphics 9/10:
The first 3d Zelda and I must say that the graphics are really good. Though still evolving at the time 3d graphics had taken over the video game world with the introduction of the Playstation 1 and the N64. Zelda debuted its 3d game and the graphics are actually still pretty good. Nothing compared to things like Halo 3 ODST, Kingdom Hearts, or Final Fantasy 7 Dirge of Cerberus, and nowhere near the god of graphics itself, Armor Core 4 (Insert holy music here). Now that… you can turn the music off now…. Yes, yes the graphics in that game are ungodly but I am not reviewing it. Now if we can move on the graphics in this game are awesome and in my eyes deserve a 9/10.

Difficulty 10/10:
Again it is hard to get a good score on this area, but this game and Tales of Symphonia both did it. The game features puzzles and boss fights that are both a challenge and fun. Not almost impossible but hard. I myself have beat the game with handicaps like wearing the iron boots unless I had to take them off, and doing a three heart run, but I have beat the game 50 times so it is expected. I give it a 10/10. (insert epic music to represent the greatness that this game has.) Alright so moving on… ok seriously is your music player broken? When I start talking again you turn of the music it is that simple, geez.

Overall : 9/10
I love this game! It is a great game. It is actually my fifth favorite game ever. If you want to know what the others are… to bad, I do not do top ten things or anything like that so deal with it. The game is awesome and if you ever get the chance to check it out. Now since I have reviewed this game let us all join together to hum the legendary song, the Legend of Zelda theme. (Start here.)(End Now.) … I said stop… STOP! YOU KNOW WHAT THAT IS IT! …I WAS FROZEN TODAY! Yeah that stopped you. Apologies go to NC for using that line but you would not stop I am sure that he can understand. Now that is over with… I still hear someone… Oh well.
