IGN has put up 30 minutes of E3 demo LoZ:Twilight Princess gameplay footage! It's a roundtable discussion of the game with the press so you'll get to hear more details about the game as well. The free footage is shrunk down, losing some detail [have to be an Insider to get the nice large version] but at least IGN is giving us superior Quicktime versions this time. They split it up into several sections [some chunks upwards of 29/30 MB]. If you want smaller file sizes I'll put up a link to the IGN page and you can check out the WMV versions from there.

IGN page for the video files

Wow, Shadow, thanks for the info!

The attention to detail in the in-game stuff is positively staggering, during gameplay, all the way down to Epona's lips when she snorts and the dust that cracks off of the doors in the forest temple.

Midna, to me, seems as though SHE is, in fact, the Twilight Princess, not just Zelda...or....could it be that Midna is the Twilight version of Zelda (?!?) And what of Ganon? Are they taking a new and different approach?

The Twilight Realm reminds one almost of the land of Termina from Majora's Mask..except instead of everyone in Hyrule having a duplicate, everyone in the Twilight has an alternate form.

Man, I sure hope there's gona' be a manga for this game :D

I'd love to see one too - unfortunately none of the Zelda mangas have ever come to NA [outside of imports that is]. Maybe Nintendo will try to get that changed this time around - US book stores are positively busting at the seams with manga nowadays.

Rumblings of another delay. Not solid fact yet, and I hope turns out false. I would rather not have to wait untill Novemeber to get this game.

I'm sure this is just another case of a website selecting somewhat distant shipping date because they don't know when it'll be released.

And I was really liking the idea of playing Twilight Princess before the Rev comes out.

As far as I am concerned this game is never going to come out.

How about a revival on this old topic, eh? Picked it up at launch and have completed damn near everything in 60 hours.

Anyone have any opinions, or should I be looking in "The Official Wii discussion Thread?"

No matter, a couple thoughts here.

The Poes were a complete pain in the ass, but definitely looked fantastic. The prize seems a little crappy, but it comes in handy if you want to go for that new armor. It seems to be so little in hindsight. It took me much longer to find all 100 Gold Skulltulas (spell?) in OoT and MM. They did give me a run, though. Plus, I now know the map inside and out from going over it so many times.

The Great Fairy, though I found here late in the game, tosses out a great prize for a fairly arduous task. I think I read that it was 50 rooms of enemies in all? I lost count around 15, lol! Plus, I gotta say it was suprising to see her portrayed in such a risque (for Nintendo) fashion. Guess that's what they were originally shooting for in Ocarina.

What really bugs me is that I though that I was done with everything. Turns out I gotta go to the fishing hole now. Fishing is kinda fun, but it just gets so annoying trying to find the fish. That, and now I need to get to level 8 in the RollGoal game. Level 6 SUCKS!

*sigh* Anyway, just wondering what people thought of it and all.

Spoiler here if you're concerned about it.

Ending was actually a bit of a shocker. To actually see Ganondorf die, cool! I guess you need to think back to that multiple future scenario from Ocarina for that to work.
Quick question here. Why do they suddenly show Zaad (spell?) snap his neck just before Ganon dies? I get the whole dead thing, but Zaad was killed a while back. It just seemed rather out of place to me.
