Ready to go Skyward

Zelda Skyward Sword is the 16th title and also the celebration of their 25th anniversary. It's quite surprising that this old series still delivers new and refreshing ideas towards action-adventure genres.


I'm liking the new designs for Link and especially Zelda. Link's face has a western look to me, and his bee-stung lips is quite a noticeable feature too! The new look on Zelda has to be the best version of her ever! I highly favor her new look than her serious counterpart from the last few Zelda titles.



Here we have a mysterious villain named Ghirahim that titles himself as a Demon Lord. He secretly spies on Link and seems to have a liking to him. He's very slender and... feminine to say the least. Let it be known that his tongue could prove very difficult to erase from your mind. And I do dare you to click on that "tongue" link.


Most of the enemies you encounter cannot be defeated easily unless you analyze their pattern and weakness. It may sound annoying at first, but I actually prefer this kind of approach instead of swinging my sword or my arm aimlessly with no effort at all.

Twilight Princess was probably the first console Zelda game that I lost interest halfway through. So here I'm hoping Skyward Sword will deliver my expectations to the very end. Judging from every single reviews I've seen so far, this is looking to be the near-flawless Zelda title for the series.

I'm following Justin.TV/Twitch.TV policy carefully about not to play unreleased games, but I have contacted them and they said it's safe to broadcast when it releases in Europe on November 18th. With my time zone, I can start tonight.

EDIT: Due to the changes of the staff's decision, they are leaning towards the US release date which is on the 20th to freely broadcast this game to the public. I rather be on the safe side and wait on that day. It's not like a race to me or anything to cast this game anyways.
