    The Legend of Zelda: A Link To The Past

    Okay so, Yes I said in my last review that it was probably my first and last review. But okay, I lied. It was fun, And i enjoy jumping around the room trying to think of ideas. It makes me read minds, Watch I can read yours right now! Mmmm.. right now you are thinking "when will this guy stop talking and start the review?" Am i right? Told ya ;) Okay then on with the review.

    It was a dark and stormy night in Hyrule. It wasnt just a normal storm, it felt like evil was about. With each lightning crack, Link would shudder terribly in his house. Just when he thinks it couldnt get any worse.. He recieves a telepathic message from Zelda.
    Without knowing where or what he was fighting, Link headed out.

    From there, I wont spoil the story for you. But however, I will say that if you've ever played a LoZ game before this, You should recognize the sudden turns in the storyline. And also throughout thsi game, Like any Zelda game, You get many weapons. Heres a nice little list of them:

    Lamp, Sword, Shield, Boomerang, 4 Bottles, Bug Catching Net, Bombs, Mushroom, Magic Powder, Medicines, Ice Rod, Bow & Arrows, Pegasus Shoes, Book of Mudora, Power Glove, Zora's Flippers, Improved Boomerang, Improved Shield, Magic Miror, Ether Spell, Moon Pearl, Master Sword, Quake Spell, Magic Hammer, Shovel, Flute or ocarina, Bombos Spell, Magic Cape, Cane of Byrna, Hookshot, Fire Rod, Titan's Mitt, Tempered Sword, Cane of Somaria, Super Bomb, Golden Sword, Silver arrows, Mirror Shield, and Red Armor.
    Wow thats a lot! Ask me any questions if you want to know what one or any of them do (But dont ask me waht alll of them do (spam))

    Graphics: What can i say? Its the Super NES. Sure, right now the graphics are blocky and 2D. But just imagine yourself 15 years ago playing this game.

    You: "Hey mom! I just got that new Legend Of Zelda game, the graphics are so good! Its not even 2Dish! I think Nintendo is getting another revolution!"
    Okay maybe you dont brag to your mom about graphics on a new game, but just replace mom with the name of your friend and imagine it that way. Graphics score: 4/5

    Sound: The sound gets a little repetitive after a while, Such as the dungeon song. Its good at first, but after a while its boring cause you hear it EVERY SINGLE TIME you enter a dungeon. But I love the music when you obtain a crystal or a triforce piece. The music is pretty much used over and over in dungeons. But if we bought games for their music, Why wouldnt we just listen to normal music? 3.5/5 (4 on the Ratings)

    Gameplay: Oooooo I cant get enough of the game play! B to use sword, A to use equiped item. Couldnt get any simpler! But yet so complex. You'd think that just using one item and a sword would be easy? Well you can switch among them too. As your sword is always B, your A attack can range from a simple lamp, to a spell. As this game lacks in sound and graphics, It makes up for in Gameplay. 5/5.

    Replay Value: Well, This is possibley the downside of the game. After you beat it once, you dont want to put it down. You want to keep playing it over and over again. But as you keep beating it and beating it and beating it. You discover that its the same game. To earn some replay value you need to try to make it a bit harder for yourself. Possibley by not grabbing any piece of hearts, not flying only travel by walking. And such. For the replay value. I give it a 3/5

    Well this about closes my review. But what better way to end it than with some nice screenshots?
