The precision play control is applied to enemies as well, as players must contemplate strategy when battling opponents that actively try to defend against attacks.

Published November 26th 2011. Written by Dominic Sheard. This year has been pretty hard on Wii owners. There hasn’t been many great titles released for the system in 2011, but it’s good to know then that Nintendo are making sure Wii owners aren’t forgo...

Look who it is. Just when you thought that the dust-gathering ornament you used to call a Nintendo games console was in permanent retirement, back it bounds. Why? Because there’s a new Legend of Zelda in town - a game most will have played before in on...

Nintendo has produced one of Link’s most memorable adventures yet, a rich tapestry of strange characters, memorable locations full of flourish and mischievous bosses. By taking MotionPlus to heart, it has created an interface unlike that of any other...

The Wii Remote really is a remarkably versatile little controller. At its best, it offers a degree of precision not found with traditional controllers, and completely transforms games in the process. But until now, it's never quite been able to make go...

Apart from minor hiccups, Skyward Sword is a remarkably well-designed adventure with some superb boss encounters, the best of which seamlessly integrate the motion controls that lay at the heart of the experience. Its main sins are that it's a bit of a...

Zelda's in trouble again and the chosen one Link is the only hero who can rescue her, despite the tribulations of puberty being an ongoing concern. The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword takes its time to warm up, but when it does, there's a lot to lik...

If you're reading this review, you probably know what Zelda is by now. Skyward Sword is more of the same — reworked, and polished. My two major criticisms of the game are that it takes forever to get to the really good bits and the game plays it too safe...

Excellent gameplay packed with puzzles and things to do; Nintendo proves that well-implemented motion controls can work.
Graphics limited by the Wii hardware; MotionPlus control sometimes experiences drift, and requires recalibration.

The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword finds itself in an unenviable predicament. In the 25 years since its inception, the franchise has picked up a few bad habits. Chief among these are a predictable structure and fetch quests that force you to trudge thr...

Despite some visual frailties, Skyward Sword is a tremendous leap forward in the series. One-to-one sword combat is the masterful centerpiece of a game that delivers on everything the Wii promised but rarely delivered in the last five years.Zelda veterans...
