They even had 2 minutes and 39 seconds left, and so they challenge players to upload their own speedrun to beat them. You can check out their full post here. Enjoy!
Hello, Zelda fans! As you may know, there has been significant debate in the Zelda community about whether or not the Zelda series’ masterwork Ocarina of Time will ever be surpassed as the greatest Zelda game ever made. Many traditionalists will argue against it, but it’s been suggested by more than one person that Ocarina of Time was surpassed, by none other than the newest entry to the series, Skyward Sword. To settle this debate, IGN held a poll, a contest split up into four categories, to see which game was better by analyzing each of them. The categories to be voted on were Controls, Bosses, Gear, and Story, comparing each game’s offerings in each category to each other, and allowing the viewers to pick which game they felt was superior in that respective category.
So what do you think, folks? What do you think the fans decided on? Could Skyward Sword ever take down the Zelda series giant, Ocarina of Time? Could any game ever surpass the entry widely accepted as the series’ magnum opus?
The answer, according to IGN’s fans, is “yes”.

Hello, Zelda Eternity community! Ever wanted to have Link serenade you with his screams? If so, that’s kinda weird, and it scares me. Regardless, we may have something you’d be interested in! Uploaded by YouTube user flanoirbunny, you can now listen to Link’s cover of a song you might know as BrodyQuest.
Hit the jump button to listen! And we’re not just saying that to commit you to the post and suggest you should post a comment after watching the video we painstakingly tracked down and then went to the grueling effort to show to you guys. Nope. All we want is for you to just take the video and not even bother to tell us what you thought of it. Just ignore our hard work over hot keyboards day after day, slaving for your own enjoyment. Just ignore our wants and desires and don’t leave a comment. By all means!

The guys over at 4/48 are getting ready to host their 4th Zelda marathon for Child’s Play Charity. Those donating will extend the length of the marathon, and be entered into a raffle for Zelda-themed prizes, just as a small incentive to donate (wink wink). Starting on December 17th, at 10 AM (EST), they’ll open with Wind Waker, and play through seven other games, one of which is the recently released Skyward Sword, so don’t miss it! The stream will be at their homepage, and you can find other details on the marathon there as well, including game line-up and charity information.
IMPORTANT UPDATE: The stream is now at 7:30 PM EST.
Last month our preliminaries for the fansite crossover tournament began, with each of the four communities holding their tournaments first to see who would be their representative in the finals. Though there was a bit of delay, it’s finally time for the four lucky winners to duke it out in the finals to win either Skyward Sword or Metroid Prime Trilogy. We will be streaming it live tomorrow, starting at 5pm EST. I realize this is a bit of a short notice, but I do hope you can stop by and enjoy the show anyway.
Following the final round, there will be an exhibition match between the four representing webmasters of each site. Before this match happens, there will most likely be an opportunity for audience members to brawl against the organizers and the contestants themselves. So if you want to show your skills off, here is your opportunity.
Don’t forget, 5pm EST. Be sure to stop by and bring your skills if you’re up for a challenge!
Hey all you ZEers. You want music? You got music!! What better way to anticipate the stateside release of Skyward Sword than listening to a fantastic remix of the theme we’ve come to know as its main theme – except this time, in METAL. Please enjoy this fantastic rendition of the Goddess’s Theme played enthusiastically by Youtube user ArtificialFear.
Thanks to bigflyingpotato for tipping us off to this.
