SynopsisDarkness casts upon the land of Hyrule, where evil lurks around every corner. The peaceful borderlands are in danger and only the powers of one man/creature can defeat such gloom. Link, a young farm boy, is destined to save the kingdom from such tragedy. After being directed by the mayor to attend the Hyrule Summit, Link sets off for the Twilight Realm. Upon his arrival, he transforms into a wolf and is captured. With the magical help of Midna, a mysterious being, Link is set free and off to battle against foul creatures.Besides his trusty sword and shield, Link fights his opponents on horseback with a bow and arrow. Maze-like puzzles stand between Link and the peace of the land, so wits must be sharp to discover hidden weapons and items. As you ride into combat against challenging enemies, your bravery will be tested and a new legend will be born. Use the power and unique control of the Wii Remote and Nunchuk controller for precise aiming, special sword attacks, shield shoves and even fishing.

Can't go wrong with Zelda

The game itself is incredible, just epic. It lives up to all the previous incarnations of the series. Even after you're done with the story, tere is a ton of things left to do, so you get your money's worth.
What's great about it: The game is great
What's not so great: none

A bit uninspired

Okay so I bought this on the strength of the rapture single (which is an excellent song). However after listening to the CD once (and subsequent times) I really noticed where they lifted ideas from other songs/artist. I don't mean an arrangement or piece that seems to draw influence from something else, but entire melodies, guitar lines, chordal arrangements. Its pretty noticeable too, and I'm not saying other musicians don't do it as well, but on this CD it is completely blatant. Other than that the rest of the CD is a bit moody and dark, but I like that (hence why it didn't get lower than 3 stars), and the music that can actually be called original is interesting at times.
What's great about it: Moody, I like moody
What's not so great: Lifted ideas
I would recommend this to a friend!

Great CD

In terms of sound, this is Tool's densest album. That's probablly because of the new engineer they used. As with switching the to a new engineer tool manages not only to progress their music on this album, but also solidfy everything they have done previously. If you like albums that take some time to get into, lyrics that actually carry meaning, and some pretty funny moments, then you should get this album.
What's great about it: It's Tool being tool
What's not so great: Nothing really
I would recommend this to a friend!
