I don't think Zelda fans have ever killed anyone because of things said on the internet. We're not a Mexican cartel!

Not yet, anyway

RUMOR: Gerstmann will be starting the Church of 8.8 to spread the philosophical insights he has been experiencing for the last half decade.

8.5/10

 

[TheGreatMightyPoo]

I bet it gets a Phi out of Five.

How do you pronounce that though????

 

[BY2K]

... Hyping a review, much?

 

[hatchx]

Guys think any reviews will drop in 10 minutes? Midnight EST?

better than the previous banner, which was for MW3. Don't even recall a skyrim one lol.

 

[BurntPork]

Is it bad that I don't get the joke?

 

[Feep]

I laughed, HARD

At least they didn't call it "What Skyward Sword Can Learn From Uncharted 3: The Review"

Is it bad that I don't get the joke?

Phi is your sword...

They embargo ends at 12 PST.

Let's give reviewers credit, they can understand timezones.

Hmm Zelda review threads are my favourites, already at 178 pages. I hope the mania is as extreme as 8.8 twilight princess

I thought I'd give my review since we're about to see everyone else's.

Okay, I think basically what it is is that you show Zelda and then right after that we showed Uncharted, and just the difference in graphics and just adult nature of Uncharted...the graphics were beautiful.

And the evolution of gameplay...it doesn't feel like we've really graduated from what we experienced in Ocarina of Time.

And how great would a Zelda game be on a modern console with modern graphics.

For the love of God, blueberry.

Three hours until critical meltdown.

 

[MasterShotgun]

Hmm... Stay up until 3:00 (EST here) for the reviews, or go to sleep soon to be better rested for classes? The latter is being more responsible, but the former is more fun and would allow me to witnesses potential meltdowns in real-time. It's definitely tempting.

And in first person. Don't forget about the first person.

 

[Ifrit]

I'm going to sleep, can't wait for tomorrow, have fun everyone

 

[ThanksVision]

if you go to bed, time will pass faster... Means it will at least FEEL like you aren't waiting as long to see the reviews.

 

[TheGreatMightyPoo]

Maybe Nintendo will reveal the specs of the Wii U if some scores are really disappointing.

 

[Divvy]

I wonder how many journalists are watching this thread, eager to write articles on our overreactions?

Hi Kotaku!

 

[Medalion]

IGN I'm fine will give a rating somewhere between 8.5-10

But all eyes are really on Gamespot's move

"That is correct"

can I port beg for a Zelda game on the Commodore 64?

 

[LOCK]

I'm ready for the potential megatons in this thread.

 

[CrAzYLeGzLU]

I'd love to stay up and watch the meltdown from the sidelines but 6am clinicals have seen to that not happening.

 

[BY2K]

9 Days Remain.

 

[gdt]

This is gonna be fun.

 

[Ilive1up]

when will reviews be posted?

 

[AceBandage]

when will reviews be posted?

Roughly 3 hours.

 

[CrAzYLeGzLU]

9 Days Remain.

Still too long.

 

[Ilive1up]

frig the west coast.

 

[oatmeal]

I'm more excited for the reviews than I am the game!

 

[TheGreatMightyPoo]

Still too long.

MARIO ON SUNDAY.

OR ALREADY.

And how great would a Zelda game be on a modern console with modern graphics.

what do you mean, we've already experienced it man. you just have to play batman: arkham city. not only is it modern in graphics and day 1 dlc, but it has a maturity in story that zelda doesn't, it's dark, gritty, it has sex appeal. you look at the top games these days, they're really challenging adult films when it comes to emotional cinematic experiences, yet zelda is happy to fall behind.

 

[TheGreatMightyPoo]

I'm more excited for the reviews than I am the game!

I hope there won't be as much lag in the review reveals.

 

[MasterShotgun]

That wouldn't work for me. Once I'm asleep, I'm out for good for the night. I'm going to try to power through. I would play Skyrim, but I have doubts about how well it will run on my laptop. Oblivion ran okay, but it's a much older game and $60 is a big risk. I'm going to keep an eye on the PC performance thread to see how things go.

 

[ThanksVision]

I think I'm going to nap it out as one of you suggested. I am too excited for these reviews

See you in 3 hours!

 

[Effect]

Tomorrow morning should be interesting.
