Four Sword Adventure (Gamecube)

Post by noiseredux »

Just started playing this tonight for the first time. I had it, but never played it due to the 4-player thing. But I figured it might fun for one. And I love it so far. More than anything, I think it's a perfect example of why Gamecube is one of the best consoles ever. The system has the capability to pull off insane 3D graphics, but instead delivers a solid 2D experience that reminds us why SNES was so amazing. Why fuck up what's not broke? Right?

I loved Four Swords, it's a game where it truly is worth it to play with the GBA link.

If you think it is cool for that, you should try it for FFCC. Friggin rocks.

As a side note, I will have almost the exact same setup at Georgia Tech this weekend for the Momocon Summer Gaming Festival. www.momoconontour.com for more details.

And to close on topic - Four Swords is easily one of the best games on the cube. I rank it in the top 5 of Zelda titles aswell. And dont be fooled, the Four Swords included in Link to the Past for the GBA is a different game. I havent beaten the GBA version yet.

As far as I could tell when I fired it up a while back, the GBA 4 Swords doesn't have a 1Player mode, eh?

Funny, I've had this game on my want list for quite awhile and with GS Buy 2 Get 1 Free I finally did. My daughter loves to hook up the GBA and go to the island on Animal Crossing and now she could have even more fun with this game ...

I remember that this was the only game I ever waited in line for in front of the store before it opened. I waited 3 hours, but it was worth it! I was surprised that there were actually quite a few other people doing the same thing at the store.
