The Legend Of Zelda: Skyward Sword Megathread - RELEASED!

[MegaScientifical]

GameChap seems to be doing a good job Lets Playing it. They uploaded the last one along with Minecraft (Lets Playing from scratch, start to end) and Skyrim. Anyone agree they are doing it nicely? I forgot about the owl from one of the Zelda games, but GameChap picked up on it immediately. They're very versed in Zelda, I mostly played them when I was too young to remember more than vague visuals.

I HAVE NOT STOPPED PLAYING THIS GAME WHEN AWAKE HOW HAVE I NOT BEATEN IT

I hear it has around 30 hours of gameplay, even when very little side-quests have been done. :o
I'm assuming it's an exaggeration but what do I know.

I finished the third temple, got past the monster, and went back to Skyloft. Have to find that propeller now.

Hey
I was reading up on some reviews on wikipedia
Gamespot gave Zelda 7.5, I think it was because "the graphics arent great and its the same old formula"
Graphics shouldn't be that big a factor if its a good game, right? And why stray from a formula if it works well? The gameplay, and the puzzles are very new, but they don't get props for it.
Then I searched up MW3
Gamespot gave it an 8
And that's when I put Gamespot on my blacklist for my browser.

it's not entirely the "same old formula"

but its like, nintendo changes something and people scream their tits off about them changing it
then they keep it the same
and people scream their other tits off for not having something different
so its like what are they going to do
which puts them in a hard position

also in Lanayru Desert

[possible spoilers] I'm at what appears to be the third and final ghirahim battle, and holy sweet forget is he tough. died about 5 times so far, glad that it didn't get easier like the second battle with him did.

i would buy this but it would take $75, or pretty much all my savings, out of my pocket.. yes/no

[Blastdown]

the only disappointments for me have been the lack of magic (bar, magic potions, etc), no camera-control, and the inability to have multiple items on set buttons.
the difficulty is awesome, a few pieces have literally paused me in my tracks for several minutes trying to figure out what to do.

I just made it to the fourth temple, the water travel greatly reminds me of Zora Link in Majora's Mask.
