The Legend of Zelda: Four Swords Adventures

Multiplayer Zelda? Sheer craziness

Like all connectivity-driven titles, Four Swords needs multiplayer to stay alive. Once you make it past that small hurdle, there's no denying the perfect design of vintage Zelda. At first it seems like an unnecessary shoveling-out of Link and his left-handed exploits, but just see if you don't crack a smile when you're glaring down at all those losers from the top of your towering Force Gem collection.

You'll love
  • Party game and Zelda? In one place?
  • Simple graphics still have appeal
  • Actually worth the connectivity trouble
You'll hate
  • Four GBAs? Four link cables? Sigh
  • We loved Link to the Past, but c'mon
  • If you're dedicated, this is a short legend
