Despite what alot of people have said - its too short, weak gameplay, too easy, bad plot yadda yadda. I personally loved this game & is one of the best games for DS that I've played. & well anyone else got it?

I don't have it, but I'd like to get it. From what I've read, the plot is fine, has a bit of a Link's Awakening feel to it. I'd get it, but I only have enough money for one game and I've already got ZXA reserved, so... yeah.

Well the game can be short... thats if you sit down for for like 2 days & play straight through it & not do any sidequests or enjoy the environment & sail around to find hidden islands. Besides the graphics are awesome, I have also noticed that most DS games latley have been coming out with better graphics by how I've seen this game & the upcoming Ninja Gaiden.

It does look good, and I have enough to afford it (I have enough to buy like 3 games) but my mom isn't letting me buy anything else because i've already bought a bunch of games this month. Getting this for christmas though.

I don't have it yet, but my friend let me try it out.

It looks really good. The only thing that kinda ticked me off was walking with the stylus, but I suppose I'll prolly get used to it.

The stylus control feels SLIGHTLY awkward at first but that's the way every learning curve goes. By the second temple or so you should feel completely at home.

I think, in general, it's one of the most robust games on the platform to date. It makes full use of DS's graphical capabilities, and has many interesting and clever puzzles that involve the touch screen and microphone (there's even a hilarious little puzzle that involves closing the DS as if you were putting it into sleep mode). Additionally, the new map system is a brilliant idea and any Zelda game henceforth that doesn't feature it will feel slightly obsolete, in my opinion.

P.S. Linebeck owns your soul.

yea I felt the same way at the beginning, & as for those puzzles some of them I would have never guessed, it really makes use of all the DS' capabilities that other games make you forget about. and yea Linebeck is probably one of the best characters I've seen in all of Zelda & for some reason he kinda reminds me of Jack Sparrow. >_>

As of yet, I do not yet own this game, but I am quite certain I would like it. I love playing through the Wind Waker, even the boring parts, and seeing how Phantom Hourglass is for the DS with these moves and all... that just makes me want to play it.

SSSHHHT! Don't let Teej hear you!

Linebeck is the best Zelda character ever.



Tingle got his own game. Linebeck deserves his own SERIES.

Would not a series about a slightly cowardly man of the seas get just a little boring? What would you do? Ferry legendary heroes around, and NOT adventure into dungeons?

Not to say I don't like the guy, but a legendary hero of gaming he is not.

And Tingle... oy... he shouldn't have even made it into the Zelda games that he did, let alone his own game...

Just got Phantom Hourglass, by the way. I'm enjoying it quite a bit, but I still think I would have preferred a more standard method of control.

Actually, think about it...there COULD hypothetically be some basis for a Linebeck side-story. More exposure about his history with Jolene, maybe? XD

The first time you see him is in a dungeon, don't be ridiculous! ;D

Well... there's a point there.

So the point of the game is to get trapped in a dungeon, and wait for the hero to find you. ^_-

I had been awaiting this game prior to it's release. However, I've yet to been able to pick it up with several other games I've been wanting to (including Pokemon Diamond). Oh, if only money wasn't so tight.

Hopefully eventually I'll get a copy of this. And Twilight Princess too, for that matter.
