Ocarina of Time is now almost 12 years old. It took the already popular Zelda franchise into the third dimension, which wasn't entirely as common practice in those days as it is today. The dimension transition wasn't only successful, it revolutionized gaming, just like the original Legend of Zelda did. Today, few top-games of all time lists exclude this classic. Two years before there was Super Mario 64. It took the established Mario series to the third dimension just like Ocarina of Time did for Zelda. It is likewise considered one of today's all time greats. Calling this transition a success is also an understatement, because Super Mario 64 revolutionized gaming as well.

The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time came out during a time where every console had its charms. Whether you were team Sega, Nintendo, or Sony, everyone knew the game's potential, and the players who invested in Nintendo's chunky N64 console were not disappointed. Like Sega's ill-fated Saturn, it may have been a console which lacked in quantity of games, but the quality was certainly there.
Ocarina of Time was a game that was hard to put down. We would bounce home excitedly from high school, ready to wander the lands of Hyrule once again to find another secret or two, before preparing ourselves to tackle that next intimidating dungeon. It's time to retell this story. Ready your ocarina.
Yes, this is one of the true masterpieces that I believe every core gamer should play.
It even holds up to this day.
