The best Zelda game ever made, A truly open world teeming with things to do and see, Offers challenges that are very rewarding once overcome
Frame rate doesn't always stay stable, Voice acting could use some work, I have to stop playing it at some point
I've already written so much about this game and yet it feels like I've only scratched the surface when it comes to what makes Breath of the Wild so incredible. There's so much to see and do in this game that I don't think I could cover it all in a review...
Abstract: The wait for The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild has been a stressful one. With Nintendo keeping it close to its chests until E3 2016, we were left to do nothing but speculate the kind of game we would be getting. And somehow, some way, Eiji Aonuma an...

Abstract: So far, my favorite thing about the new Zelda is how people are taking the mechanics presented and figuring out clever things to do with them, like hurtling through the air via rock-travel. That and the fact that if you spin around in front of dogs, they'...
The Legend of Zelda Breath of the Wild is an almost perfect game, hindered only slightly by a few technical issues from the Wii U and the Nintendo Switch. Besides that, it is a masterpiece to behold...

Abstract: By now, you've hopefully seen and enjoyed some of the fun Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild production anecdotes to come out of Nintendo's 2017 Game Developers Conference presentation. A couple of them -- the team's delightfully lo-fi prototype and conv...
The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild really is a joy to play. It's a Zelda game that is sure to satisfy those who've had it circled in their calendars all these years, but even if you've never been a fan of the franchise, this is an excellent place to...

Abstract: Early in The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild, I discovered a puzzle shrine containing a small maze. Inside that maze was a little ball. The goal, I realized, was to maneuver the ball out of the maze and slide it into a nearby funnel. To do this, I'd h...

Abstract: When I last left off, I was lost somewhere along the northeastern coast of Hyrule. I had yet to experience one of the game's dungeons, didn't have a horse in the stables, and hadn't even figured out how to cook yet. 20 hours later, that's all changed. I'm...
