Legend of Zelda The Milk Bar [Archived]

[zaneebaslave]

Miyamoto is almost as cool as me. Almost. In honor of his birthday, I will... um... Think of Zelda a lot. And then when I'm done thinking of Zelda, I will think of it some more.

 

[Spire]

Man, they really shot for a birthday release of New Super Mario Bros. Wii, but missed by a hair.

Looks like I'll be registering for classes and writing a paper on Miyamoto's birthday. I'll celebrate on Thursday when I get NSMBWii.

 

[lanky_gunner]

Yay for Miyamoto! He's my idol. Happy Birthday to him.

In celebration, I will make my own adventure of the day, cause that's what he always did.

Hehe that was good. The animation reminded me heavily of Family Guy.

 

[Mewter]

That was great.

But whatever Link does is justified, even if it means chasing chickens!

Edit:
This guy is so pro.

The flaw that video was pointing out nearly every RPG in existence is guilty of the same thing. Side quests galore. ****, I heard Steambot Chronicles was BUILT on side quests.

But that was an entertaining animation. I wouldn't expect anything less from College Humor.

Lol, yeah. I remember posting this a while back, and it sounds just as awesome as it was when I first heard it.

Truly wonderful video, and still among some of my favorites. <3

 

[Kingdom Come]

Ok guys, I figured it out. The fairies appear out of nowhere, link has no clue wtf is going on, so he must take the fairy queen home and thus begins his adventure. New Zelda theory!!!

So, someone beat Majora's Mask in 2 hours

http://speeddemosarchive.com/demo.pl?ZeldaMajorasMask_SS_20304

I recommend anyone watch this. It's incredible.

EDIT: In one day cycle (not including the Deku cycle), and without the Goron mask! Holy F

 

[Jonas]

Can't wait to see MrGrunz' TAS of MM =D

 

[DUB]

That is ridiculous........ I really never knew that was possible.

 

[Ochobobo]

Wow, that guy found a lot of glitches. lol

 

[Luigitoilet]

My favorite part was probably starting the Great Bay Temple with 5 hours left on the timeline, and bombing himself through the one of the first walls to land in the boss room.

Hero of Bombs

 

[TLMSheikant]

Impressive.

Yeah that was good. I liked how he was able to go to Termina Field when he was just a Deku Scrub, and then only used it to access a different part of Clock Town. It probably only saved about 30 seconds. lol

Songs that severly induce nostalgia:

Astral Observatory

[Luigitoilet]

Daww. That's one of my favorite MM songs and one of my fav Zelda songs in general.

 

[zaneebaslave]

I am definitely an "ALttP" music fan. I was listening to it recently, and I for one think it is the best music of any zelda games... ever. Sure there are many amazing songs throughout the Zelda franchise that I also love... but it seems that every single song from ALttP is a masterpiece. When my ALttP playlist comes on, I dont have to skip any songs unlike my OoT playlist or my TP playlist.

Perhaps it's just the nostalgia of the moment...

 

[Spire]

I have to skip tracks from every Zelda game except ALttP, LA, and OoX, because they have so few and each are so unique to their games that they're not worth skipping. The 3D games just have so many tracks (including many 5-15 second pieces for opening treasure chests, etc) that it's really hard to listen to the soundtracks without feeling a sense of inconsistency and lack of atmosphere.

 

[lanky_gunner]

I don't skip any Zelda song...ever...on any playlist. I even go back and listen to some a couple times over.

Beat that!

 

[Firus]

One of my friends was actually quite distressed today and they asked for a distraction (this was over AIM) and I was playing Majora's Mask at the time so I randomly linked them to the Clock Town Day 1 Music in the best attempt at a distraction I could come up with on the spot. (They haven't played Majora's Mask.)

They said it was very calming and stopped seeming distressed after that point. Majora's Mask is pretty much amazing.

 

[Phantom7]

I... never really listen to Zelda playlists... To be honest, I spend more time arranging Zelda music, which I only do every now and then. But sometimes I like to listen to random Zelda/miscellaneous game music in the background while doing something else.

 

[zaneebaslave]

I have a sneaking suspicion that I will be listening to a lot of Zelda music over the next few days...

Oh crap! *turns on Microsoft Word and begins typing*

Oh crap! *turns on Microsoft Word and begins typing*

Oh, holy ****, that reminds me! *Opens Game Maker and begins working on the Zelda engine*.

I need to get back to that...

 

[SkylerOcon]

A round of applause please to lanky_gunner, the first person who isn't Spire or Skyler to contribute to the news thread!

Seriously guys, don't be shy ;_;

 

[zaneebaslave]

I dont know any news...

I didnt even know Spirit Tracks was out until I entered the forum today.

 

[lanky_gunner]

Heh, I thought it was a mod only thing til I saw the add reply at the bottom. Straight over my head on that one.

It's what I get for looking at IGN frequently.

just bringing it to your attention.

 

[SkylerOcon]

Anybody know when Kotaku's contest is ending? I got a chance at winning it, but you know...

Won't be able to pull it off till sometime in january.

 

[Firus]

I'm pretty sure I know what the response to this is going to be already, but I'll ask anyway.

I have both Ocarina and Majora's Mask (finally both of which being the original cartridges instead of just on Collector's Edition), and I've started playing both. No, unfortunately, I've never beaten either of them. I'm about to enter the first dungeon in Majora's Mask, and I beat Dodongo's Cavern in Ocarina of Time, but only on Collector's Edition -- I've only gotten through the Deku Tree on the cartridge (which is where I will be continuing my game).

Thus far, I've enjoyed Majora's Mask more, but OoT is more widely regarded and whatnot, plus it came out first. I will be beating both of them, but would you recommend that I beat OoT before Majora's Mask?

 

[Spire]

Well MM is considerably more difficult, so if you play it before OoT, you'll think OoT is way too easy. I say play through OoT first because its types of puzzles carry over to MM, but are made even more difficult, so it's almost a natural transition. Playing MM first would be a good experience, but would totally overshadow OoT. I say pay respect to both.

 

[lanky_gunner]

If you do them both at the same time on equal intervals, I would assume you would be beating Majora's Mask first (like on intervals you are doing now).

But I think it would be better to go through Ocarina first. It will lay the ground work for what to expect in Majora's.

Thanks for the advice, guys. I think I'll play Ocarina first. You can only beat a game for the first time once (well, unless I get amnesia), and I don't want to skew my experience of the games by playing them in the wrong order -- there is no definitive "wrong" order, but my experience will differ depending on which one I play first -- so I wanted to check with you guys and see what you thought.

But I seriously need to beat both games soon (along with others, especially the ones I already own that I haven't beaten yet) if I want to consider myself a true Zelda fan, so I'm putting that next on my agenda after Spirit Tracks.

 

[Spire]

Oh man, I had this dream last night that a friend of mine created his own custom temple in Majora's Mask based off Stone Tower and another friend of mine and I had to traverse it along with numerous others. It was crazy difficult and scary. I remember the first "room" was this open, walled off rectangular room (about the same size as North Clock Town), but with the Stone Tower tileset, and a large circular statue of The Moon, but with sharp teeth. On its sides were these long spike-covered cylinders (like in NSMBWii) and it would attack me with them. Oh man it was insane. Then in the next room, I had to help this little, little kid (about a two year old) sneak into this water shaft into this huge, half-flooded room and that's where I woke up.

 

[TLMSheikant]

So, I have done a 3 heart challenge in MM and TP. But cant seem to be able to do the OoT 3 heart challenge . I suck lol. I cant get past Volvagia with no fairies and 3 hearts only >_<.

 

[lanky_gunner]

Where are you having trouble? I can give you tips on each of the bosses. I've gotten through all of them without taking damage, or at least minimal damage.
