Like I mentioned earlier, Zelda pushes the DS to the limit. I am not insinuating that the graphics of Phantom Hourglass are anywhere near the height of Windwaker or Twilight Princess, but they are at least as good as the N64. This game looks great to play, even if a few parts are pixilated. Just turn the game on and you will be surprised.
The soundtrack is exactly what you’d expect: bombastic in some parts and nonchalantly accompanying the game play in others. Players will hear the traditional Zelda melodies such as the over world theme, Zelda’s Lullaby, and Ganon’s theme. The music is not to the level of Twilight either, but much more to be expected than on a DS, and definitely better than the midi tracks of Ocarina.
And as always, we have a great story and challenging puzzles to work with. Acquisition of new items, discovery of new lands, and unfolding surprising plot twists are all in store for players. This is a welcome addition to the Legend of Zelda series, and holds as much promise and satisfaction as any other previous entry.
