Gluemeat

I really don’t want to sound like a smoldering fanboy or anything, but The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess is the reason why I’m getting a Wii, just like when Wind Waker was the reason I got a Gamecube. The latest trailer should put the case in point.

Seriously, folks. After watching that, even those of you who don’t enjoy video games have to admit there is something special about this game.

Point of interest: despite all the hype that Nintendo is trying to carve itself a nice into the “casual gamer’s” heart, it seems that Twilight Princess is for the not-so-casual, if you believe IGN’s Matt Casamassina:

“After I spent 10 hours with the game, I barely managed to squeak by two temples, with the third so far off that I could scarcely imagine getting there, let alone approach the objective. (For the record, out of 30 or so journalists, nobody came close to the third temple.)”

As much as I liked Wind Waker, it was a little on the quickly executed side. I smell hours of fun.
