- The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past -
What a game. This game was released way back in 1992 and I still find
myself coming back to it almost 10 years later. Can you think of any
other game that does that to you? Not many. Not many people will argue
with me when I say that The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past is
still
one of the greatest games of all time.
I always say that Nintendo takes special pride in the Zelda series.
Every single Zelda game that Nintendo churns out is a finely tuned
gaming masterpiece. No matter what the system, no matter what the
limitations, it comes out as an amazing game. Nintendo has brought the
Zelda magic to 8-bit, 16-bit, 64-bit, and even portable systems. If you
ask me, I say that this one is the best.
The level design is the best of any game I've ever played, the graphics
are clean and colorful, the music is dramatic and memorable, and the
challenge is just right. It's perfect in almost every area, and it all
comes together to produce a pinnacle of all video gaming.

Headquarters (http://www.zhq.com).]
To set the stage for this adventure of the legendary Hero of Hyrule, it
will be informative to delve into the Triforce myth, an ancient epic
about the creation of the world that is still believed in the land of
Hyrule. Every culture has such myths and theories about the creation of
their worlds, and it can be beneficial and entertaining to examine them
in detail, for they often affect the present day social structure. The
legends say the mythical gods of Hyrule had as their chosen people the
Hylia. These ancient people left scrolls that are the primary source of
the legends.
