The Legend Of Zelda: Skyward Sword

[SuperZambezi]

Just a day left for North America guys!! Waking up early Sunday morning, check for any sales or deals in the newspaper ads, and then I'm off to go get the game.

 

[Vipsoccermaster]

Yup. I'm going to try to wake up as early as I can, and get that game to play! Hopefully at 11:00 AM (when my local GameStop opens).

 

[Waluiging]

I want to buy this on day 1!

But, I have to buy Christmas presents for my familly.

OMG THIS AND WHEN I BUY IT I CAN SPEND THE REMAINING AMOUNT OF MONEY ON FOOD FOR GOD'S SAKE DAMMIT LOL

 

[SuperZambezi]

You won't even think about food while playing this game. ITS GOING TO BE AMAZING.

And how have you guys been doing avoiding spoilers? I've been doing pretty good. All I know is a bit of what happens in the beginning (from the E3 demos) and a what the first three or four dungoens are (not sure of the exact order though).

 

[Vipsoccermaster]

Probably a lot of the game, except for the beginning parts.

Spoiler: Second Dungeon

The second dungeon is called Earth Temple, only it's fire-themed, much different than Wind Waker.

Got the game at Best Buy today (came with 10 dollar gift card). I've played for about 30 minutes or so and I really like how the tutorial intertwines with the story.  Much better when compared to Twilight Princess.

 

[Vipsoccermaster]

Got the game, too. I also got Wii MotionPlus, too. And The Zelda Music CD, which I have not yet used. Still in the beginning, currently looking for Link's Loftwing.

 

[SuperZambezi]

Not sure when we should start marking our posts as spoilers. After the first dungeon? Second?

Anyway, played three hours today (or yesterday I should say). Loving it so far and I'm at the Faron Woods.

 

[Vipsoccermaster]

Same here. But over 5 hours. Still looking for the first dungeon:

Spoiler: First Dungeon

Skyview Temple

 

[Waluiging]

I don't mind spoilers, so I went on Zelda Wiki and looked at the final boss, who looks so epic!

 

[SuperZambezi]

I was planning on working on MPL today but of course the internet goes down for the entire day. So instead I got a good 5 hours into Skyward Sword I got through the third dungeon and now I'm doing some side quests.

Spoiler: Third Dungeon and Cutscene

I'm really enjoying the story. I love all the characters and I loved the cutscene after the Lanayru Desert Mine Facility (third dungeon) at the Temple of Time where Zelda, the Servant of the Goddess, Link, and Ghirahim finally all face off. Good stuff

 

[Vipsoccermaster]

Wow, you're ahead of me now. I'm still stuck finding the five key pieces to Earth Temple. I found 3 out of 5 pieces, and I can't find the last two, even though I can pinpoint their locations with the Dowsing thing.

In the Lanaryu Gorge region (near Temple of Time) after getting my copy on AUS release.

Side quests are fun. Getting floored by Skulltulas... isn't. (I have problems stabbing cf slashing)

Upgrading items is awesome.

 

[SuperZambezi]

Upgrading items is awesome. For once I actually care about collecting random bugs (and now treasures) and I finally see a point in collecting ruppes!

Spoiler: Sixthish Dungeon

Currently at Elding Volcano doing the Silent Realm for that area. Silent Realms are really cool but originally I thought they were just copies of collecting Tears of Light in TP.

 

[Vipsoccermaster]

Just finished business in Lanayru Desert and now entered the Lanayru Mining Facility. Something is definitely going on in Temple of Time. Upgrading is awesome yet again, but I haven't done so because of the lack of treasures I actually need. I have a bunch of bugs and treasures, though.

I'm right after the first dungeon where my Wii decided to explode and not read my Skyward Sword disc.... anhero;

That sucks. Hope you can get it fixed soon and get the urge to play from where you left off.

Anyway, I finished the Lanayru Mining Facility and now, I'm supposed to look for the pinwheel like object in Eldin Volcano in order to move on.

 

[Darkboo007]

I beat the whole game and I am not pleased, none at all
Dungeons were straight forward and the final boss was a LOL
I'm in Hero Mode now and I'm at the Shipyard in Lanayru's so called "Sea" LOL
I am ashamed at was at once thinking of returning it to get my money but I'll keep it :/

 

[H-J Kaabii]

The Temple of Time does stand roughly near OoT Hyrule's Castle Town right? (Then again why am I talking about chronological canons...)

Just entered Lanaryu Mining Facility. I lol'd that I didn't realise I could run up to pull those switches (I thought it needed a clawshot O_O)
