+ Legacy in the sky +

Having the releases of games as renamed as skyrim or assassin's creed: Revelations makes other games not to look as attractive, specially when they lack of publicity.
I got really excited to get my special edition of The legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword specially for being a big fan of the series.

After playing it for several hours you realised how impressive this game is.  Knowing the graphic limitations of the Wii platform, the nintendo crew in charge of the develop clearly aimed to something not too ambitious for the system making a merge graphic style between the cartoonish wind waker and and the obscure twilight princess. The whole game and the cinematics creates a really colourful story telling experience that doesn't even include voice dialogs.

The gameplay is increased thanks to the motion control and now the enemies react to your decisions, making them more complicated and taking it off the just pressing A button battle system.

The maps are constantly challenging being transforming it into a really refresh approach to the series.
Knowing that not only is me (and Sarah) who think is an awesome game, but also it was qualified by IGN as 10/10 Masterpiece makes it even a better game.

Graphics don't make a game, so this is an invitation to all the sceptical to try the game and erase the idea of nintendo being repetitive and childish.
