OWR: The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time

Category: Features, Posted: 05/04/2008 at 10:02AM CDT by Eddie Inzauto, Associate Editor

One Word ReviewWelcome to One Word Review, GamerNode's unique take on videogame critique. Every Sunday, we will present a single game, reviewed with but a single word from each of a handful of reviewers. You may not always find our words in your standard dictionary, but we have faith that you will catch our meaning, nonetheless. Videogames are so often rated, reviewed, and discussed to exhaustion, so while some may call OWR a creative way to be lazy, we call it succinct, sincere...and fun. We love reader input at GN, so be sure to throw your own OWRs in the comments section, too.

For our first edition of OWR, we will be tackling one of the most highly praised games in the history of the industry. If you take a look at Ocarina of Time's aggregate scores on GameRankings and Metacritic, you will see a 98% and 99%, respectively. It is clearly a fan favorite, and big-time gaming publications have used words such as "flawless," "epic," "incredible," "remarkable," and "platinum" to describe it. So what do we call it?

Eddie's OWR: "Quintessential"

Creighton's OWR: "Masterpiecy"

jambo's OWR: "Superb"

Demetri's OWR: "Experience"

Ryan's OWR: "Godlyawesomenss"

I think Zeldarific encapsulates it.

Aww, he's a coder...let's let him slide this time, or else that comment button might suddenly stop working.
