The Mayor from SimCity-SNES, right? (not in the PC version)
Quote:LA is definitely the best 2-D Zelda. WW is the best game to ever make 3-D mechanics feel as fluid as 2-D. While OoT is the better game overall, WW has the best mechanics. So OoT, MM and WW are all a matter of opinion over which is best in the 3-D arena. But for 2-D nothing beats LA. Though I haven't played Minish Cap yet
But yeah, I think WW is the best mechanics wise and MM is the best gameplay wise.
MM and WW had potential to beat OoT, but didn't, even in the categories. Oh, graphically they're fantastic, and the gameplay at times is as good as OoT, but the flaws... MM's frusteration factor greatly hurts that game, and WW's easiness (as well as other, lesser, issues) similarly hurts... yes, the combat system is more involved, but it doesn't feel much more strategic or satisfying because of how the enemies are easier...
Oh yeah, and I hate that "press A to jump over the enemy and knock off their armor" thing. I never got used to it at all... stupid thing. I wish it's gone in the next one. :)
Quote:I expect that to change by early 2006.
I don't know, OoT is a very high standard... close, yes... but better? I'm not so sure... especially once you consider nostalgia as a factor.
