Ah the water temple. You couldn't just download a walktrough for it either (the water temple) if you got stuck. You couldn't figure out where you were in the walktrough! (unless you like used it from the beginning on) I got stuck in that temple a long time. (was 8 at the time)

It is definatly the best game ever because it gives you a "boundaryless" feel.

@Jeroen- The Water Temple....that takes me back to when i played through it for the first time. Oh my God it was hard! Raise the water level, now lower it, then go fight this mini boss that is harder than the final boss, then to top it all off let's save and quit to grab a bite to eat and go through the madness again!

But anyways, OoT has always been my favorite Zelda game along with Majora's Mask. Something about that game grabs me and won't let me go. It is so fun, that I played through it with a friend for like my 10th time a few days ago. Heck at one point I had every small detail of the game memorized.
The game is great, I love it, and it would easily be in a top 5 list of games for me.

Its been one of my favorite N64 games as far as I can remember, the first game I've played for the N64 too.

My favorite part about it was that it basically followed up very nicely to the other Legend of Zelda games, adjusted quite well going from 2D to 3D.

Note about the Water Temple, holy christ it was hard when you're going through it as a 9 year old kid.

I found SM64 to be a lot more boring than the original 2D Marios. Its a great game and all i just think The Legend Of Zelda graced the 3D era better than the plumber.

Really? SM64 was much better in my opinion.

There wasn't much of a plot. You could go wherever you wanted to, as long as you got enough stars.

There was no sense of accomplishment until the very end.
