[GDC] New Zelda screens and video!!!!!

[OB1]

You know, I'm going to try to do that as well. I did it with WW and Metroid Prime, so I think I can manage once again. I just want to find out what the supposed innovations are this time around.

And I agree, a huge world is a must! Aonuma did say something about how they're thinking about making the world gigantic. That they'd do it if it worked well for the game. And I really, really hope that it does.

I don't know if any of you remember this, but a couple of years before OoT came out there were rumors about Hyrule being insanely huge in the game. The official UK Nintendo mag even reported that it would take... an hour (something like that) to get from one side of Hyrule to another. I was so extremely hyped up about that that when I finally got the game, I was really let down by the tiny overworld. I still loved the game, and I did get over that initial dissapointment, but ever since then I've longed for a Zelda game with a really huge overworld. WW almost did it. I loved the vast ocean, but it wasn't quite the same.


Oh and one more thing. I agree with lazy's earlier idea that the game should focus on exploration, even moreso than previous iterations. A huge world would lend itself to that.
