The notes, that undaunted sign that fuels the eternal debate about the way in which we should judge a game. Here at VidaExtra we prefer to rely on words rather than numbers to analyze what an adventure, an experience, an interactive experience transmits to us… And I’m glad.
The prestigious magazine EDGE is famous, among other things, for the harshness it applies when it comes to scoring games. That is why the ten that culminates the analysis of ‘The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword’ is surprising, a perfect note that has only been awarded to fourteen titles in its entire history. Thus, Link’s latest adventure joins the select group formed by ‘Super Mario 64’, ‘Gran Turismo’, ‘The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time’, ‘Halo: Combat Evolved’, ‘Half-Life 2’, ‘Halo 3’, ‘The Orange Box’, ‘Super Mario Galaxy’, ‘ GTA IV’, ‘LittleBigPlanet’, ‘Bayonetta’, ‘Super Mario Galaxy 2’ and ‘Rock Band 3’.
It seems that the next Zelda brings together everything that Nintendo has learned in the Wii baggage, from ‘Super Mario Galaxy’ to ‘Metroid’ to even ‘Wii Music’ . The EDGE text is surprising because, yes, the magazine is famous for its notes, but it is even more so for the rich, complex and deep content of its content. With that I stay.
