Yeah, I got mine at like 00:10 on the Friday which I thought was pretty efficient.

it was from nintendo@e.store.nintendo.co.uk and the subject was The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina f Time Costume Set DLC is no ready to download if you want to see if it's in your spam/junk folder.


Got it tonight for some reason. Hope they eventually release all the preorder outfits for a cheap cost on the eshop.

Volga is kicking my ass on the Skyloft level. I went straight to that level when you're given a choice between that, the Twilight Realm and Death Mountain because I felt like fighting in a colourful environment. The music on that level is incredible and the opening cutscene made me excited to see how Zelda U turns out.

As a whole, I'm still very much enjoying the game. The first time I heard the narrator, I wasn't keen on her voice but it didn't take long for me to warm to her. I now love the way she tells the story before each scenario and I look forward to it between levels.

I just unlocked Ganondorf. He is such a powerhouse. Also downloaded his demon king costume set (as well as the Ocarina of Time set). I'm a fair bit into the Legend mode now.

I haven't played as Darunia, Zelda and Midna yet. Must give those characters a try.

Beat the Legend mode. The last level is pretty good.

Am I doing something wrong with Fi? She is so shite compared to everyone else.

I've found that Lana is a bit weaker than the other characters but I haven't tried Fi yet. I just completed the Twilight Field level and Midna and her Darknuts put up quite a fight which is always welcome as it keeps the game interesting. I also managed to take out Volga in Skyloft earlier today after failing to beat him yesterday.

The Zelda universe is wonderfully represented in this game :wub:

Ganondorf is just the best thing about the game. He is awesome and fun to wreck gooseberry fool with.

I'm pretty sure i can beat him when he goes "super strong" it's just a matter of timing

I found Fi quite good to use. Some of her combos are great for clearing through hordes of enemies. She's definitely better than Lana with the Deku Stick but I prefer Lana with the Book of Sorcery over Fi and her Goddess Sword.

I've just got the Master Sword and I'm still very much enjoying the game. I've yet to play as Darunia, Midna or Zelda but I've enjoyed playing as all the other different characters so far. I haven't played as Impa in a while but I think that my top three characters would be Shiek, Fi and Lana (Goddess Sword). Of course, I expect Ganondorf to steamroll to the top of my list once I unlock him :D

How the heck are you supposed to do the Death Mountain level. If I protect the boulder keeps, bombchus get my base, if I get the bombchus then I lose the boulder keeps! Its bloody impossible as it wants me to be in two places at once!

EDIT: Should add that if I lose the boulder keeps I also lose the allied base. I'm totally stumped.

You need to go back and forth to do both at the same time. I'm playing on hard and I think that only one of my keeps fell, and only once, while I was attacking bombchus. You need to pay attention to your map to help your allies if they look like they're in trouble, especially the ones in the keeps.

This game does Ganondorf true justice as his power is nothing short of magnificent! His B, B, B, B, B, Y attack is incredible and it takes out pretty much every enemy around me. It's always awesome to see the power of that attack :D

But how am I supposed to then defeat Darunia? He spawns at the top of the map and I can't get to him and be able to keep track of the keeps as they are too far apart!

You should be able to beat him before the allied base falls. It'll take some time for the enemy to capture the boulder keeps and bring down the base so use that time to get to Darunia and beat him. If you find that your map says that the allied base is in danger, go back and help it. Darunia won't recover his health or move so it'll just be a little detour.

Thanks Dark Dragon, finally nailed it! I just went a bit OTT methodical, focussed on the southern bases to start, nailed the Gordon captains early, then held the boulder bases in between taking out the bombchus. Darunia can wait until the very end it seems.

Quite an enjoyable level once I worked it out!

I found him really tough but persistence was all that got me through him. You could try levelling up in the dojo but I think that my Link always had the highest level of my party so I couldn't level him up there, even if I wanted to. I think that the best thing to do is to just keep rolling around to avoid his attacks and hit him when you can*. Just don't get too eager to hit him and learn when to back away.

*obvious post is obvious

The last few levels of this are amazing and quite challenging at times! This is definitely a great game and worth playing if you're a Zelda fan. The music is especially incredible and it does a wonderful job of bringing the Zelda universe to the Dynasty Warriors franchise.

After completing a game's main campaign, I usually move on but I'm eager to see what else is left in the game so I'm going to look into the adventure mode and challenges. I've already played a couple of levels in the adventure mode and I can see that it has the potential to have a lot of content. It does look very interesting so I'm looking forward to exploring NESrule a bit more.

During the game, I noticed a bit of slowdown and I would have liked to see more use of the items like arrows, bombs and the hookshot. It would have been great to work them into combos, like Batman uses his batarangs, explosive gel and grappling gun in the Arkham games, but they did at least work well during boss encounters.
