There's only one Tadpole bit, you'll be pleased to hear. The other two sections are much better, especially the desert part. Just make sure you do the Eldin Volcano part first.

The musical tadpoles?

I liked that bit.

So far this year, I have eaten NO mince pies.

I think that there's the potential to get stuck in a game breaking bug if you go to the desert first.

I have a confession. I got this for Christmas and never got round to playing it. I sold it for a measly tenner at the weekend. Did I miss much?

Yeah, that's it. Although I don't know if they actually released the patch for it?

You've already done the Tadpole section, just go and do the volcano area next to avoid it.

Definitely. I took a few weeks break from playing it and I'm right back into it now. Of all the Zelda games I've played, it's the one that's had me the most frustrated, the rolling ball in the second temple just about had me giving up, but some of the other dungeons have been fantastic. I think I'm past the getting annoyed point with it now, I even ended up liking the final spirit quest thing (Din's challenge, I think?).

However, I am just about to start the 'protect the flying robot' section in Eldin Volcano and I sense some more swears coming up :)

Second bit of the song GET. Went a bit MGS there but was ok, a nice change of pace.

I didn't have a single bit of trouble with the ball rolling or protection bit, but failed so hard on some easy standard enemies (used a fairy on the first big spider I came across I think :fp: ).

I found that Link just kept on jumping off at random bits, it really got my blood boiling. That plus trying to aim bombs with only a few hearts to keep you going was causing many a (Scanners Head Explosion Shot) when I was playing it.

I think I may be a bit further on than you though so I'll watch what I say. Speaking of standard enemies though, those lizard things with the arm-guards owned the gooseberry fool out of me.

You missed out on a lot of tedious crap with good stuff every now and then.

Can't say I agree with any of the problems you guys have. My only gripe with Skyward Sword is Fi. She's not annoying in a 'Hey, Listen!' way but in the way that she has a habit of pointing out the bleedin' obvious when it came to solving puzzles. The option to turn off hints would have been welcome.

Gario, you missed the Sand Sea, the best section in a Zelda game since the Yeti's Mansion in Twilight Princess.

Don't they have the save fixer on the store if that happens, though?

I really dont know what you were doing on the ball but with the lizard things attack diagonally.

Also like Carlos I didnt have the same problems as you guys. If I wasnt so busy I think I could play for a 3rd time. The Sand Sea :wub:
