Zelda ~ The worst of the worst... and then some

Well, I've tried to find really bad reviews of Zelda Skyward Sword but it's just not possible.
When the absolutely worst of the reviewers still give the following comments you can only consider this game an instant classic...

"Once you get the hang of it, normal controllers almost start to feel primitive. I'm playing Skyrim right now, and it feels like my hands are tied behind my back."


"With this latest sequel, the developers have crafted a remarkable adventure that implements some of the most forward-thinking ideas of the series."


"To be successful in combat, reacting to the placement of each enemy’s hands is of utmost importance, and while one becomes extremely adept at taking out the early combatants after a few hours, from start to finish, Skyward Sword asks much of your wrist. When the credits rolled, my hand ached, and it felt great."


Check out who gave the worst scores for Skyward Sword and 'why' after the break...

  2. Yep, but I thought you already owned a Motion Plus - you could still buy the special Gold version with the added controller ;-)

  5. Well, I'm a bit disappointed ...

    Cameras and control are a pain in the a...

    After something like 10 attempts, I did not manage to defeat the first boss... and I was exhausted too
    Hits requires precision (and the wiimotion + should provide that) but the controls are too approximative to make the right move at the right time. I also have to disconnect the controller from time to time or Link will start to run in circles ....

    I even wonder if my version is a beta ...

  6. Ouch, not good, hope you can find some online hints or comments and find out if it's a general problem or a solution - it would really suck if the game remains unplayable for ya :-/
