Wow~ Everything about the graphics here is amazing! I don't even know where to begin describing what makes it so awesome: liquid physics, detailed textures, smooth animation, realistic lighting... Everything the N64 was known to be terrible for, this game showed off what was possible. Granted, the Expansion pak probably helped that along a bit, but it's still the same system!

Graphics: 10/10


- Story -

Wow. Isn't it great when a series goes so far away from the norm that it becomes a gem over all the others in plot? Ganon and Zelda weren't even in the game! The plot was so dark, eerie, and surreal that it gave the game a haunted atmosphere even in bright, sunny places! The main plot itself wasn't directly connected to the main series, but I'd be interested to see if Majora's Mask itself was somehow connected to other areas of the series.

Oh. my. God. This deserves like, 100/10! The transformation masks were so easy to change between, and granted such unique skills; so balanced as well! And then the time feature! How long were they working on this, I wonder, to get the mechanics right? Must've started right after OoT's launch!

Gameplay: 10/10


- Music -

Wow. Some of these tracks are just so amazing; Some of them sound better on the game itself than on the OST, even (such as Deku Palace).

Music: 10/10

Total Score: 10/10
