Product description
A Link to the Future
One of the most storied franchises in history soars to new heights. The Legend of Zelda™: Skyward Sword shakes up the tried-and-true adventure game formula and marks a turning point for the franchise. The introduction of full motion controls to the series enabled by Wii MotionPlus™ technology enhances player movements while offering the most intuitive play control of any game in the series to date.
FEATURES:
The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword boasts the most realistic sword combat of any game to date, turning every encounter into a challenge of both brains and brawn. Wii MotionPlus technology accurately translates the angle of every sword slice, effectively putting Link's blade in the player's hand. Analyzing enemy attack and defense tendencies and counteracting with precise swings of the sword provide a satisfying experience that blends puzzle-solving with a new and distinctly unique combat system.
Explore a massive, multilayered world that seamlessly blends soaring exploration in a sea of clouds with intense ground-based adventuring that blurs the line between the main world and traditional Zelda dungeons. Link™ soars through the skies on the back of a noble bird and dives beneath the clouds to the continent below in an epic quest that lays the foundation for the events in the critically acclaimed The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time.
Prepare for intense puzzle-solving as only The Legend of Zelda games can deliver. Exploration of the forests, volcanoes and deserts requires players to think on their feet as they solve puzzles, overcome obstacles and escape deadly traps. Once they find their way to each dungeon, they are confronted by even more puzzles guarded by fiendish enemies.
The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword redefines the traditional Zelda framework and introduces an arsenal of items, upgrades and rewards unlike any game in the franchise to date. The adventure guides players into, out of and back to dungeons and areas they've already completed. Along the way, Link gathers a massive inventory of peculiar items and resources that can be used to upgrade many of his weapons and equipment.
Every copy in the initial production of the game will come packaged with a special music CD featuring orchestral arrangements of select songs performed at The Legend of Zelda 25th Anniversary Symphony Concert.
A Wii Remote Plus™ controller or Wii MotionPlus™ accessory is required to play The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword. There will also be a limited edition bundle version of the game available, with a Gold Wii Remote Plus™ controller included.

Anyway, the soundtrack album is pretty good, although some of the arrangement is rather unexpected. I also kind of expected to hear a few more tunes in the actual arrangements / medleys or simply more separate tracks on the CD itself. Oh, well. So I guess that really passes for "for better or worse, okay." I'd like to have heard that one night time tune from Twilight Princess in that medley too. It was the most previously recent, and a center for the game (not to mention most of the wasted space for samples used in the original game tracks, so they should bloody well use it, lol), so why not? Hmph.
So there it is. Great game, and some nice tunes for a while. That's really all there is. Time to go play.
As for the game:
Fantastic. It controls wonderfully, is challenging for an adult but not so challenging a child couldn't play it. It's bright and colorful, pleasing to the eye, pretty much open world with all sorts of little secrets and fun things to discover. The game provides a minimum of 35ish hours worth of gameplay. Far as Zelda games go it's just very fun, one of the lighter titles and sure to be a pick-me-up after a long day. The soundtrack is also great too, really nice to fall asleep to.
compared to Twilight Princess, I felt this was a step-down:
1) Flying all over the sky gets old fast, even though you're perfectly safe and never lose life for falling off.
2) there are more cheesy, cute moments at hand, almost too much storyline really.
3) the monsters and bosses are hardly intimidating.
4) "Fi" who is your guide in the game is helpful only in the first few stages of the game. After this, she's just re-affirming what you just learned a few seconds ago. Her most valuable information comes after defeating bosses or other landmark moments.
5) There are LOTS of puzzles, most of them are pretty easy.
Overall, I'd rate the game 4 of 5 stars. It's fun, but too easy for someone who likes a good challenge. I'd recommend this game for ages 8+. If you're kid is gravitating towards being a patient, perfectionist, and loves fine detail (as in searching for all the tools needed for any quest at hand) this game is good.
Because of how impressionable kids can be, I recommend acquiring this Zelda game before handing them LoZ: Twilight Princess, which is darker, edgier, and has quite a few elements that are more suitable for ages 12+.

you will become totally immersed in this game and i cant see that you could complete it in less than 40 hours. if you want to do all the cool side quests then this will extend considerably and keep you going for a very long time.
worth every penny and every zelda game always is!
Hours of Awesome Awesome Awesome.
Hours and hours of Awesome Awesome Awesome.
This is THE must have game for the Wii, utilising every aspect of the Wii Motion plus and Nunchuck controllers. A little slow to start, but before you know it you'll be slashing and bashing your way through seemingly never-ending dungeons and legions of baddies, on a quest to find the thing that gets you the thing that gets you the thing that gets you the thing that kills the baddy. (Might have missed a few things in there!)
Neat and sometimes infuriating puzzles that, once you’ve figured them out, leave you feeling either rather silly, or ecstatically jubilant. In addition, a fighting system so physical and natural that it makes you feel entirely at one with Link.
A true epic, well worthy of the Zelda lineage, and deserving to stand proudly alongside The Ocarina of Time.
The game itself has changed a little in the way of a story but not by much, I would say that this game is a lot easier than the others and I remember only one part where I had to get help and it was a puzzle not a dungeon.
I would recommend this to anyone who likes the games before, don't think it can beat the Ocarina of Time or Majora's Mask but it will be played again and I think it is a worthy edition on the Zelda series.
The game is the first in the Zelda timeline, brilliant music, gameplay and classic story telling as to be expected from the franchise. You will need to use motion controls and the game rewards you for accurate sword swings and aiming with the various weapons Link picks up along the way.
Highly recommended for any fans of the series or adventuring.
I have to say that this game is equal to if not even better than Occarina. While graphically these games are no match for the latest pc offerings they have a wow factor and brainteasig quality that can have you not wanting to put this game down.
Overall a game you must not miss, it's even worth buying a Wii just to play this game.
