The Legend Of Zelda: Skyward Sword (preview) - The Game-Master Issue



Geeky Info:

The Skyward Sword is a Legend Of Zelda game - the latest after Orcarina Of Time 3D. Skyward Sword is due to release November/December 2011 (so, supposedly it is still in progress.) It is made by original Legend Of Zelda series creator Sherigu Miyamato (note: Miyamato made the Mario series and Donkey Kong series as well as The Legend Of Zelda series.) The game is the prequel to the latest which was a re-make of the 1998 game Orcarina Of Time (re-make; Orcarina Of Time 3D.) The game is currently being made by Nintendo Entertainment Analysis and Development or shortened to; Nintendo EAD. P.S. There are no voices this time. Though the game is coming Winter 2011 there are trailers out there on the Internet. I, personally, liked this one a lot by TheHiddenTriForce. (Contains actual gameplay as well as Cinematic's and I thought they were both really Good!) Takes 1:51...

Gameplay

Lets take a second to talk about the actual gameplay. For me the graphics look astounding in every way including gameplay and the Cinematics tend to look better and always will (or at least for the next 2 years as they're getting better and absolutely real) If you look at the gameplay for the Call Of Duty games they are top notch and life-like by much. And Mario looks more human then when he was jumping gunpowder barrels in '81. Now to the Story. The game takes place in Link's hometown Skyloft, a nice little village. You start off as the common main character Link but not in the common Link suit with a sword and shield but in plain clothing but that later becomes different. Ganon/Ganondorf is in this game too. As well as a new character called; Phi, who, is in this game... pretty much throughout. People think that Navi should and will be in this game so she probably will as its what most of the public want. A mystery takes place on two realms, seperated and Link travels to both realms. But, eventually the mystery of why both of them were separated unravels itself to link. Giant Birds are in the game (for traveling to those realms) but they are a little weird as you should know from the trailer. The game does look fun and I am really looking forward to its release. The gameplay looks real and don't worry about action there is a lot of fighting and it looks awesome.

The whip from The Legend Of Zelda: The Spirit Tracks (DS) comes back as well (which I didn't know there was) People said the best thing about The Spirit Tracks on DS was the whip mode on the game. As you see on the picture over on the Right-hand side there is are 6 lives so, there are more to start of with, 8 or more and also it has easier attacking as for it targets the enemy for you. The weapons or tools you get in this game are: Bombs, Bow, Slingshot, Whip and also the return of the Sword glow >


Pictures (skip this if you wish its not so important)

I want to show some fan-artwork of Link, unfortunately I can't show a lot (because of the space) but it doesn't mean I didn't like the ones I didn't put.

A great picture, I love the anime touch

An absolutely beautiful sketch of Link on a Horse












An amazing Link: Shadows Of The Past picture with the strange 3D touch.

A nice pencil sketch of Toon Link playing DS with Zelda as a ghost by his side.






Really cool drawing of Link with armory.

Link doing a jump attack on a giant with a sledgehammer.
Audio

At E3 on 2010 Miyamato said that the Orchestrated music would be rather similar to the Orchestrated music in Super Mario Galaxy 2. I found some videos with music that was in trailers, and the theme.
