****! You know what I never have to play a single game ever again, the board will just tell me what happened.

I wasn't serious. >_>

No, I wasn't, but I haven't yet played MGS3, so stop spoiling it already; I played MGS for the first time about a year ago (found it at EBGames for $6), and I just started MGS2.

The fact that MGS3 is a prequel is not a secret...it's on the back of the box. It's advertised as such ("The Cold War!").

... MGS3 taking place before MGS/2 is not a spoiler in any way. Nothing has been spoiled in this topic outside of the fact that EVA's escort mission blows ass. But that's a warning, not a spoiler. <<

I never found Triforce hunting to be that bad, but then again I've only played through WW once. It was a decent game, just not great enough that I'll want to play through it again for quite a while, if ever.

It's generally pretty hard to hide the fact that a game is a prequel (once it's released); when I kindly asked to stop the spoilage, I was referring to the stuff about the EVA mission and the ending, not the fact that it was a prequel.

It wasn't too bad on the first play through. I know I was bummed when I figured out I had to go find pieces because I was ready to go fight Ganon. And then paying all those rupees to Tingle...sweet heaven.

Now when you play through that game multiple times, it is perhaps the most annoying thing imaginable -- but the reward is always being able to fight the best boss battle in gaming!

I'll assume that Tazzmission is that Tazz guy in the WWE's finisher or something, funny story, my health teacher is his cousin, and he's the wrestling coach. Okay not so funny, but it was a story.

I've never actually fought Ganon in any Zelda game, because I get a few hours into them and can't handle the suck anymore. The only one I did fight was OoT Ganon, thanks to my friend having a save file right before it.

I'm hearing the sound of the Price is Right failure thing right about now. Dead to me.


(I like the whole "Never fought Ganon before -- but I did fight OoT Ganon! Speaking of which...hey Tran Man.)

I meant to say that I've never got to Ganon on my own in any Zelda game, because they've all sucked too much nuts. Though MM was bearable.

Gah! Majora's Mask? That's the worst 3D Zelda game.

Ganon is a jobber in almost all of his final bossfights

This applies to 90% of all final bosses in videogames. It just depends on how cool of a fight it is, regardless of difficulty.

Majora's Mask lacking Ganon is worth, like, at least .5 off of the total score, which is like a 9/10 overall.
