The Video Game Critic

Good day.  Sorry to talk about another board here, but this is an interesting experiment I really like and wanted to pass along to the fantastic members here on the VGC boards.  Over on the IGN Legend of Zelda Board, they're doing a Zelda "book club."  Every week, you play a section of a game, then discuss it.  They say it should take about 2 and a half months to do the current game: Windwaker.  They already did OoT, but that's it so far, so the real interesting ones are just starting.  Anyway, I barely ever post over there, but I'm signed up (it's very good timing seeing I just got this one for Wii U), as I really like this idea. 

Windwaker just started today, and the first section is up to Dragon Roost Island, wherever that is.

As well, if there was something a ton of us had access to, I'd be interested in doing something similar here.  If I had a 360 still or an Xbox One, I'd be all over Halo for this (Xbox One will make it especally easy).  There's so much to discuss there just from the mechanics and lore perspectives, It'd be a great year's worth.  Half Life would also be incredible, and much of that could be played on almost any computer we have, and bought cheap (entire core series and expansions for $10 currently until Oct 1 on Steam).  And most everyone here has a Wii or Wii U I think, making the VC a goldmine of series.

Excellent idea, Atarifever! I'd sign up for this in a heartbeat. MGS and Silent Hill would also be great (and relevant) series to pursue.
