[Let's Play!] Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past

[magus113]

Welcome to the very first GT Let's Play! (Cheesy, badly Photoshopped logo included!)



In our plentiful random discussions, BaB and I have discovered that we both have not completed Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past!



Unacceptable! SO.

We decided that we would play through, side-by-side, and put down our triumphs and our struggles (and possibly show you them) and we'll see if we can finally finish this old classic.

INSTRUCTIONS

- Obviously, you'll need a copy of the game! Whether it be the original SNES cart,
the Wii VC version, or the GBA version. If you own a copy of the game, then emulation
is always an option since you can provide screen caps of your journey if you choose.
(REMINDER: ROMs are illegal if you do not own the game so PLEASE do not emulate
unless you own the game you're emulating!)
- Make notes of anything and everything! Part of the fun of Zelda games is their tendencies
to be linear and non-linear at the same time. So if you took the extra step to get a heart
piece or make yourself rich by killing baddies, or whatever it wouldn't hurt to show how
your playthrough was unique for you!
- GT's servers can only handle so much (and this is me assuming because I don't really know),
so if you're going to use attachments, please use them sparingly. If you want to upload a lot
of pics, try using a Photobucket account or something, and to lower the quality or size of the
picture to make the pages load faster if possible.
- I'm going to try making notes throughout playtime about how my runthrough went, since it'll be
good to not jump ahead of everyone else. I think this effort would work much better if we all posted
our collective summaries at the end of the week to compare. But to each their own, I can't order anyone
around.
- This is not a race. I'm trying to give enough time for everyone to move at their own pace, and
also give time for other things as well. We all have social lives (except for BaB).
- Have fun! This is a classic that should be enjoyed as much as possible for years to come!

Join in if you like, I believe Blue is getting in on it as well. We start Monday!

Also leave some questions if you like. We're kinda making this up as we go.

By Monday the 17th you should have finished fighting Agahnim and entered the Dark World!
By Monday the 24th you should have finished getting the fourth crystal in the Dark World!
By Monday the 31st you should have completed the game! And if you have congratulations! You've beaten one of the best games of all time!
