The GameDaily One-Minute Review

Two and a half years -- that's the time players patiently (or impatiently) waited for The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess. Originally a GameCube game, Nintendo opted to release it for the Wii. However, the company did not forget Cube owners, as it launched the GameCube version December 11. Even without the Wii's motion controls and an orchestrated soundtrack, Zelda succeeds with an ambitious quest that rivals Ocarina of Time and a control scheme that players will love. Dated graphics and a synthesized soundtrack keep it from perfection, but regardless of these faults, Twilight Princess captivates from the opening cinematic.
