The single greatest videogame of all time? Did we oversell it a bit? Really, we may not be kidding. At the very least, Twilight Princess is sure to be the best launch game in the history of launch games, but we're willing to bet it'll go down as much more than that. The title is the result of a massive effort by the proven Zelda team at Nintendo, which has in the past created some of today's most fondly remembered titles, from Ocarina of Time to Wind Waker. Twilight Princess will not only be bigger - a horse ride from one side of Hyrule to the next is rumored to take 45 real minutes - but much more ambitious than ever before. Link turns into a wolf, crossed into a dark dimension, goes fishing, and rides his way into more dungeons than ever - and he's just getting started. Truth be told, we've glimpsed scenarios that have made our jaws drop and Nintendo itself has indicated that we haven't seen anything yet. The final product is going to be nothing short of epic and with both a Wii-exclusive 16:9 mode and new Wii-mote-enhanced controls - the ability to shoot arrows and slash the sword - the game is on track to become an instant classic when it launches with Wii.

Should be fun using the Wiimote to slap the Horses backside :P

That sounds so awesome! The bigger the better IMO.

It sounds good on paper, but i know i got frustrated in GTA: San Andreas because it was honestly too big

Sometimes a looong horse ride can be a downfall, but i mean, if they have looooots of extras and make the horseride fun and make it easy to explore new areas and stuff it could be a really great part of the game, but i still cant wait for it ^_^ HORSE SLAPPING FTW!

well i'm sure that they will have something like OoT where you can warp from area to area without actually riding for 45 minutes, but that is still huge...

Xiro is right, They must have a Teleporting System, and the huge world is for exploring and extras ^_^
