Posted 22 Feb 2006 at 05:30 by guest
Legend of Zelda. 20 blessed years of adventure.
Forgive us. We have been most remiss - we almost forgot to pay the proper dues to a series that has captivated gamers for two decades. Two decades (from February 21st, 1986). All the memories of adventure, heroism and yes, cuckoo-abuse cannot be adequately condensed into a few mere sentences (or paragraphs even). I mean, it just can't be done - this is perhaps the most beloved series in the videogame industry today, and certainly one of the most important. Only Mario can really challenge it.
So... we won't! Luckily, the fine folks of 1up.com have lovingly prepared a very comprehensive retrospective on one of gaming's most hallowed and cherished assets. You can find that HERE.
Yes, the Legend of Zelda continues into its 20th year... still enthralling the jaded, still capturing the imaginations of the new with every release. Speaking of new releases... looks like the latest Legend is set to rock our world again this Fall. Link, good friend, its been far too long.
Well excuuuuuuuuuse me, Princess!
