The Legend of Zelda : The Ocarina of Time - Nintendo 64

The Legend Of Zelda : Ocarina Of Time - Nintendo 64 (Released 1998)

The Legend of Zelda: OoT is one of the greatest Nintendo 64 games released. The anticipation for this games release was the most ever seen for its time and when it was released it was the best selling game of 1998. The game surrounds our hero Link, a young Kokirian boy that has not yet recieved a fairy where as his friends in the Kokori forest have. One day a fairy called Navi is sent by the Great Deku Tree to become the young boys guardian and bring him to the Deku Tree. After aquiring a sword and shield Link greets the Deku tree and after going inside him and killing the evil spirit the Deku Tree tells Link about an evil Gerudo man, named Ganondorf, that is trying to get his hands on the triforce, a relic left by the gods when they created the world. If one as evil as were to get his hands on the triforce, the world would become ruin, so Link sets out to find 3 jewels to open the door of time, the door to the scared realm, where the triforce resides. After doing so, with some events occuring, Link opens the door of time and picks up the legendary Master Sword, where Link grows to the age of 17, meaning that 7 years had passed in Hyrule. Link then travels back and forwards between time to stop Ganondorf and save the land of Hyrule.

I personally loved this game, it was the first and best N64 game i got and i never looked back afterwards. The games graphics and story were stunning and the game was fun of unexpected suprises whcih added to the delight. Even to todays standards, this game is considered one of the best ever released games of all time.

OoT is a role-playing action RPG game with puzzle elements mixed in nicely. It uses the b button for sword attacks, A is the action icon telling you when to pull, climb and any other action, and the C buttons are used for any additional items as well as the Up+C for hints from Navi. It has a "Z Targeting" system where in pressing z you can lock onto enemies and look at points of interest. There are treasure chests and doors with locks that you must find the keys as well as puzzles that will make you use your brain to think of solutions, they are not all brain teasers, but they add another element of fun to this exellent game.

Overall View: This is an exellent game and there are few who dislike it, to crazy characters to great landscapes and not to mention the great story line. It should also be mentioned that OoT is one of the first games available on the Wii virtual console downloads.

Pep Guardiola agrees to extend Barcelona contract


Guardiola has won back-to-back La Liga titles with Barca
Barcelona coach Pep Guardiola has agreed to extend his contract with the club until the end of next season.
Guardiola's current deal was due to expire at the end of this campaign, and the Catalan giants have moved to prolong his thus-far successful reign.
"The signing will take place in the next few days," the club said.
The 40-year-old has won eight trophies, including successive La Liga titles and the 2009 Champions League, since replacing Frank Rijkaard in 2008.
Barca are currently seven points clear at the top of the table, and on Sunday, they became the first to win 16 La Liga games in a row with a 3-0 victory over Atletico Madrid.
Guardiola will resume his push to win European football's top prize for a second time as a coach when his free-flowing side face Arsenal in the first leg of their last-16 Champions League clash at the Emirates on 16 February.
Having impressed as Barcelona's B team coach, Guardiola was appointed first-team boss at the Nou Camp at the end of a trophy-less 2007-2008 season.
The former Spanish international midfielder had emerged from Barca's youth system to win six league titles and one European Cup as a player with the Catalans.
He resumed that trophy-haul in his first season in charge, steering his side to the Primera Division, Copa del Rey and Champions League.
He added the Uefa Super Cup, Fifa Club World Cup and the Spanish Super Cup to the trophy cabinet before the end of 2009.
And last year Barcelona successfully defended their domestic league - with a record-breaking 99 points - and Super Cup titles.
Fierce rivals Real Madrid, with former Chelsea coach Jose Mourinho at the helm, trail Barcelona by seven points with the same number of games played.
Sunday's historic triumph, when World Footballer of the Year Lionel Messi netted all three goals, surpassed Real's 50-year-old record of 15 league wins in succession.
Speaking after that game, Guardiola said: "We wouldn't be what we are without Messi. Without him we would be a good team, but he makes the difference."
Meanwhile, Barcelona will drop the UNICEF logo that appears on the front of their shirts from July and replace it with the name of their new Qatari sponsor.
Barca are one of the few clubs in the world not to have a corporate logo on their jerseys, instead displaying the name of the United Nations Children's Fund, for which they pay the organisation 1.5 million euros (£1.27m) a year.
However, they last month agreed a record five-year sponsorship deal with Qatar Sports Investment worth 30m euros (£26m) a season.
"It has been decided that the Qatar Foundation logo will go on the front of the shirt, on the breast," Barca vice president Javier Faus revealed. "UNICEF will go on the back underneath the player's name."
Faus, though, said it was not clear whether the UNICEF logo would be allowed to appear on shirts worn in the Champions League.
"What we can guarantee is that every FC Barcelona shirt that is sold around the world will have the UNICEF logo on the back," he added.
