More fannishness! LOZ this time.

Being a fanpoodle just keep getting better. New Zelda screencaps.

Say, is it me, or does Link's design look different? I mean different from the last batch of screencaps?

Yay! Someone besides me who understands that images made of pixels still do have swoonage power!

I mean, someone besides me who isn't a rabid lunatic teenybopper fangirl, anyway. Someone who can spell. And who uses their brain. And all that good stuff.

Of course! To me, a good video game is no different from a good movie, book, play, or piece of music. It's fairly common to cry because of, or during any of those things, or laugh, or be completely overwhelmed or taken away. That's what good media does to you. Video games, same thing! It's just a work of art that moves you.

oh and FFVII's Reeve is sooooo hott!!11 ;D

Exactly! I don't often cry at movies, but lately I have found myself doing so if it's REALLY worthy of it...and actually, I tend to get sniffly at the end of certain anime series. For example, Trigun, Fushigi Yuugi, Saber Marionette J, Fruits Basket, Slayers NEXT...

But yeah, even if I don't do the sniffle thing, certain video games really do have me bouncing in my seat. There are a bunch out there that just have some major impact. If nothing else, some games have such gorgeous visuals that I just can't get enough of the eye candy. (Kingdom Hearts, the Spyro games, PSO Episode II, Star Ocean: Till the End of Time, etc...and of course OoT. Classic, despite the fact that graphics have advanced considerably since then.)

So yeah, fangirls, start your drooling. Dang, I can't wait till Z:TP comes out.

This is not sucking me back in, this is not sucking me back in, this is not sucking me back in, this is not sucking me back in,this is not sucking me back in, this is not sucking me back in, this is not sucking me back in, this is not sucking me back in....

The one where Link is wearing the wrap around thingy with the bare arm is his outfit where he works on the ranch.

Just go with it, Min. Resistance is futile. We will be assimilated. ;)

(Dude, I said "ass." And then I said "imilated." Hee.)

I'm all about the game, but oddly, the trailer didn't have me in tears the way the fake FFVII one did. I can't exactly explain why, though. I loved OOT more than any other game, but there was something about that FFVII tease that just walloped me.

That's not to say that I'm not peeing myself over it. I'm sure this game will eventually wallop me, too.

ETA: They updated the screens from last night, it seems. I hadn't seen that one of Link with the funny little cow till just now. Yes, his clothes are odd, but his face looks a bit different from the first few screens I saw months ago. Hmm.

And what's with the half-clothing stuff? Nibbling a bit on Nomura's style here? ;)

Link ages throughout the game, so the differences of design in some screenshots might be from different parts of the game.

And I know Nintendo will release this game at the same time that Microsoft brings out the XB360.. I should just mail my wallet to Redmond. :P

BTW, have you seen these gameplay movies?

HOOTAH! First one: Link the shepard! Looks like classic Zelda gameplay. Though, I'm not sure about the "WHOOP" button. ;)

The others are still downloading. Huge files! Man, I can't believe how beautiful gameplay looks. Ahh, Hyrule calls to me. ^_^

Thank you for sharing these!

The whoop button makes me cry. ;_;
