The giant fish from Wind Waker, and basically the water temple from OoT.

I think I was hoping for a reference to him, but that never actually happened. Sorry. There is some very slight reference to Ruto in the name of the Zora queen, but that seems to be it.

That and a refernce to Impa, but those are the only ones that stick out in my mind. I think I'm going to start again sometime soon, since my exams are done next week. Maybe I can throw out some more then.

As for the control, I have to say that I LOVE it! You aren't swinging the controller about as you might think for the sword, just quick little motions to swing through the standard sword swing pattern-and attacks as a wolf. I honestly was having trouble going back to the previous games after playing. The Wii just felt so perfect. The only problem I have ever had with the game is the shield attack, which as it turns out, is not an uncommon issue. You are supposed to jap the nunchuck forward to hit the enemy off balance with your shield, yielding them ready for standard or unlockable attacks, but I always seemed to perform a spin attack instead. Either way, you don't use it much, and it's not necessary to beat the game. I should probably practice it now since the only times I did it in the game where when I "needed" it.

The control is just the coolest, though. I'm sick of people saying "it feels like it was just tacked on." It may have been, but it is done very well and doesn't "feel" tacked on at all. The game feels like it was made for the Wii remote.

^ Me too.

The sailing was somewhat strangly relaxing. I also loved looking up at the night sky and seeing the moon and constellations. The whole concept of sailing at night was strangely peaceful.

I also loved the titanic battles with the giant Octopuses. It was kinda cool that seagulls would hover over the part of the ocean where they were hiding, and if you got close, they would spring out of the Sea and attack you.

I also loved the creepy Ghost Ship that appears at night during the FullMoon, as well as the deep sea divers from the Game and Watch Game "Octopus" who make a cameo.

This is the best summary I've ever heard. Plus, no reading anymore! lol! Thanks GameTrailers!

WMV: http://www.gametrailers.com/player.php? ... 4&type=wmv
Quicktime: http://www.gametrailers.com/player.php? ... 4&type=mov

I don't thinl that TP fits in as they suggest, simply because of the ending I suggested earlier, but this came out a week or so before the release, so it was just pure speculation.

I suggest you watch the whole series, it's very entertaining and informative.
