Aftereight videosand just as many hours, we're finally entering the home stretch. Ocarina of Time's closing moments are indeed some of the series' best, with a climactic showdown between Link and Ganondorf, and then a truly awesome duel to the death with the latter's final form. While I may bitch and moan about the platforming elements in this dungeon (they're irrefutably awful), that last skirmish with Ganon still ranks among my favorite videogame moments of all time. I go intogreater detail in the video, but yeah, it's amazing. Still the best final boss of any Zelda game, maybe of any Nintendo title.

As usual, I play through the dungeon, and have Carolyn, Henry and Mike Grimm in tow for color commentary and no small amount of ridicule. Now that Ocarina of Time is handled, what other game would you like to see played through in a series of videos? We have some thoughts, but we're always eager to appease you fine folks...
