Restarting an Adventure

So tonight I started up Twilight Princess again. It's bringing back memories of the summer I spent playing it (*cough* Totally cheating *cough*) and all the time I've spent in Hyrule.

It's definitely different though, especially coming right off finishing Skyward Sword. Maybe I'm just more aware of the details that the Zelda universe has, but I can tell Twilight Princess is a bit rough around the edges in some places. There's a big cutscene where Zant pretty much takes over Hyrule. The trouble is, the guards look like cutouts and they didn't finish rendering the scene properly. Of course, I noticed that the first time around as well.

But Twilight Princess is meant for the gamecube, in terms of graphics. In some ways, the graphics of TP are AMAZING, but in other ways, Skyward Sword's graphics, while being cel-shaded and less realistic, have a lot more life to them.

I'm digressing, though. I'm excited to start Link's adventure again, and this time, I'm not even going to look at a game guide for this. If I can beat Skyward Sword (okay, I did use a few hints, but the game provides it, and I did try to figure out everything else on my own before checking on the internet) without one, I can do the same with Twilight Princess. Especially since this is...I think my fourth? time through.
