The suspense is killing me. I have to wait until we get our Christmas package, which will probably arrive sometime in January, to play it. RRRRRGGGGGHHHHH.. well, you lucky skunks, don't ruin it for me.

WRONG. I can. Anyway, i can't wait until friday, when it's released in Sweden. I want it now. It sounds really awesome. And looks awesome, too, judging by the gameplay videos i watched.

Eh, I know you can't read Norwegian... but I guess you could run it through some translator or something... either way, here's my review of the game:
http://www.gamereact... Spirit Tracks/

At least you can see the rating, which is a perfect 10/10. Along with that, I also awarded it with the "We <3 You" button, something that only happens when the game is truly perfect. I guess it wouldn't be that big of a deal to just rewrite it in English myself, but you know, this is my job, and I'm not working right now... it's like making cardboard-boxes at home if you work at a cardboard-box-making company... icon_razz.gif

I honestly don't think it's a perfect game... Sure, it's good, but not that good...

I wouldn't call it perfect, but so far, it's pretty good. Right now, I (SPOILER) Just played the duet with Carben and restored some of the Ocean Spirit Tracks

Migo, I'll be sure to translate and read your review when I'm done with the game.

Hey guys, don't you realize how easy you can get Heart Containers in this game? I beat 2 dungeons and I'm already at my 2nd Row of Heart Containers.

Same here. It's actually kind of nice. Minigames give entire heart containers rather than just pieces.

Eh, I chose not to. Plus, man oh man, that boss rush mode is amazing. The hidden boss is freaking reminiscent of ye ol' NES days. Although I am rather addicted to the Goron target mini game. But yes. This game is amazing. It's why you don't see me posting too much anymore. icon_razz.gif

I got the game last Tuesday, and have loved it so far. I've just finished the 3rd visit ti the Tower of Spirits, and can honestly say that the game is in my top 5 favorite Zelda games. I may actually like it better the Ocarina of Time. GASP, BLASPHEMY, ETC! Not the VERY best Zelda ever, but it's close.

Also, the train is win.

Turns out the train was a good idea. It was much better than the steamboat. But the King of Red Lions will be the best transportation in Zelda games IMO.

Personally, I like the steam boat better than the train. The train's nice, but you're limited to where you can go by the tracks, whereas with the steamboat, you can go anywhere. King of Red Lions was okay, but it was too slow, and as long as you went in a straight line, enemies wouldn't even attack. With the steamboat, you can plot a course, then focus solely on blasting bad guys.

On that subject, Epona in Twilight Princess is my favorite form of transportation. icon_razz.gif

Halfway through the game myself. I'm very surprised at how well done it is. Much better than Phantom Hourglass, though I'm still not fond of the WW style. I would kill for an old-school-to-3D style DS Zelda game, to be honest. However, Spirit Tracks is definitely worth the buy, I think!

Glad to hear it! I was worried (this from a guy who is absolutely in love with the style of Wind Waker) that it might not be any good. I'm just glad to hear that it's as good as I hoped, because I thought everything might be downhill for the Celda style after Phantom Hourglass.

Beat the 3rd Dungeon of the game. The dungeons are so much better than Phantom Hourglass's. I was wondering, will there be a sword upgrade in the game like the Phantom Sword in Phantom Hourglass? If there is, say yes or no. Keep it spoiler free.

How 'bout another shield? I was bummed about that puny wooden one you keep all through PH. Again, no spoilers...
