So I started playing The Wonderful 101, maybe about an hour or 2 in. My opinion is reserved because I heard the game has a lot of depth, but it's not particularly fun so far.

I understand. Initially, the game seems overwhelming, clumsy and strange. It has a different rhythm than most games and can really be appreciated when you get more moves and more members on your team. Stick with it, it really is worth it. It just seems very foreign at first.

Watched the credits roll on Wind Waker last night, what a satisfying game! I got caught up in charting the whole map, and exploring each island out there. I didn't do every side quest, but I feel I got a good portion of them. I went into Gannon's Tower with a whole row of hearts, and 2 under it. Overall, the game was pretty easy (I didn't die once) but the puzzles were the most enjoyable, and intuitive out of any Zelda I have played. I almost always knew where I was supposed to be going next. Easily my favorite Zelda game I have played.

I've been chucking messages in a bottle out to the Miiverse on Windwaker whenever I remember. They say "racketboy.com" so hopefully the boss can grab some ad revenue. :D

I'm kinda surprised that it's allowed to be posted. IIRC, the rules said not to post links to websites, among other things.

Racketboy gets a pass cause it's so awesome :P

Does your message in a botle reach a lot of users or only 1? Cause it would be awesome if I was playing this game and I run into a message from one of you guys :)

If you send a tingle bottle out, it can be received by multiple people. Also, you have a MUCH greater chance of receiving bottles from people who you are friends with.

I had set my game to only get bottles from friends, and I guess only 1 person was sending out bottles, because every time I got one, it was the same message!

I feel like the message bottle feature should be spent sending out lyrics by The Police.
