The Legend of Zelda Is Birdier Than I Remember
Looks like Legend of Zelda: The Skyward Sword has a new trailer for SDCC. I was all set to bitch about the green hoodie-less Link, his disturbingly pretty eyes and the plethora of birds, but then Zelda got swallowed by something and the trailer turned into a regular Legend of Zelda game. Looks pretty fun, but I wonder if I can get over the emotional scars left by the first few hours of Twilight Princess and goat herding. It remains to be seen, I guess.
