The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker

System: Nintendo GameCube Release date: 02/05/2003

The latest Legend of Zelda adventure begins with our hero in the midst of a family crisis. Link's peaceful life on a tiny island is shattered one fateful day when his beloved sister is snatched by a huge, menacing bird. Naturally, the sword and shield-wielding hero follows in hot pursuit. His search sets in motion an epic adventure across strange lands and high seas, as Link searches for clues to his sister's whereabouts. Featuring a unique animation style, The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker expands on the revolutionary gameplay seen in Ocarina of Time and Majora's Mask for Nintendo 64, and takes the Zelda series into a new dimension. You'll see characters' expressions change as they laugh, cry, or show anger and surprise, with a variety of actions and livelier, more expressive characters. Plus, Link's world has never seemed so atmospheric. Amazing effects like flickering fire, shadows and smoke make you feel part of the action like never before. Naturally, the great Zelda gameplay is back with a vengeance. Link can slash with his sword (including a mighty new spin attack), deflect blows with his shield, swing across gaps, and - for the first time - pick up weapons that his enemies have dropped. Additionally, The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker will feature the incredibly intuitive control system that Zelda gamers have come to expect from the greatest game series the world has ever known. Stay tuned for more details. This one's going to be hot!
