[QUOTE=stika]I'm frankly shocked at golvellius' score. I think it's an amazing game and I only discovered it like 5 years ago. I think it's on par with the original Legend of Zelda and even surpasses it in some ways (Especially if you use FM sound)[/QUOTE]

You have got to be kidding me. I just spent a hour trying to figure out what you guys like about this thing and frankly I think the critic went easy on it. Exceeds Zelda in many ways? Even the 3DO Zelda was more fun to play than this thing...

3DO Zelda?  I must have missed that one!!  I think you may mean CDI Zelda.  Anyway, I have Golvellius but have to admit I haven't really played it properly.  I'll have to give a crack and see how it plays by today's standards.  It did get pretty favourable reviews originally, but will have to see if time hasn't been kind!

I'm surprised you didn't enjoy it. I honestly think this is a better game than original Zelda, mostly because the original Zelda has aged very poorly imo. Goelvellius offers much more variety, the action is more fluid and is in my opinion a very underrated 8-bit gem.

I recommend you spend more than just one hour with it. If someone who never played Zelda before spent one hour with it and hated the game, would you take his/her opinion seriously?
