Over the last two months, the coolest thing happened: The awesome people across the internet spoke and voted ZU October and November’s Board of the Month. With nearly 40% of the total votes, we kicked butt, proving once and for all that Zelda fans are the best kind of fans out there. Also, Derek’s forum-styling…

Since it’s my 19th birthday today, you all get TWO parts of the PH visual guide! This is certainly a special occasion, and has all to do with my birthday and nothing to do with me forgetting to post this part yesterday. [veoh]v16828417zHB5PyaP[/veoh]

Every day we’re releasing a new part of the Phantom Hourglass visual walkthrough until we reach the end at part 28. Today’s part covers Dungeon #7, Mutoh’s Temple. [veoh]v16810828AMehx4tt[/veoh]

Every day we’re shipping out a new Visual Walkthrough part up until Part 28 – the end of Phantom Hourglass. Part 22 covers the Isle of Ruins. UPDATE: It seems Veoh’s video embedding is finally agreeing with us again, meaning I’ll be putting videos right into the posts. Finally! [veoh]v16802144C6AYNMgQ[/veoh]

I’ve recieved the last of the Phantom Hourglass visual walkthrough from awesome staffer Hylian Hero, and I think in celebration of this epic completion… well, I should post them! One per day, every day, starting today – for a whole week. Part 22 will be up later today, and there will be a new part…

It seems Nintendo wants to make it’s casual fans cushy while they learn more about the DS. While at the mall today to replace a crappy iPod case at the Apple store with a fresh, undamaged model, I ran across something that genuinely made me smile. While walking down the halls of a mall I…

ZU’s video-centric staffer, TSA – responsible for the Phantom Hourglass visual walkthrough and Legend of Zelda visual walkthrough – has been spending quite a lot of time on a special project for Ocarina of Time’s 10th Anniversary. A while ago he came to me with an untranslated Japanese promo video for Ocarina of Time, a…

It looks like even Wikipedia is taking part in the OoT 10th Anniversary festivities. For the event, today’s featured article on Wikipedia is – you guessed it – their Ocarina of Time article. As a shameless plug, ZU’s wiki (also the wiki of eight other awesome Zelda sites), Zelda Wiki.org, has an awesome Ocarina of…

Ah, Ocarina of Time. It’s hard to believe that tomorrow you will turn ten. Soon enough you’ll be off to high school, you’ll be growing hair in weird places and start getting those funny feelings towards girls. They grow up so fast! Zelda has gone from a tiny pixelated wasteland to a GameFAQs battle-winning, gamer…

Gamefaqs’s daily poll is a character battle – the seventh, in fact – and right now it’s a close call between Link and Solid Snake. Other contenders include Crono from Chrono Trigger and Cloud Strife from Final Fantasy VII. With the 10th anniversary of Ocarina of Time less than a week away, what better way…

Part 21 of our Phantom Hourglass visual walkthrough covers Link’s journey to the Isle of the Dead, where he meets Brant, one of the four knights chosen to serve King Mutoh of the long-lost Cobble Kingdom. Launch the video!

I am happy to announce that we’re currently putting the finishing touches on the first four sections of ZU’s Link’s Crossbow Training section – Items and Equipment, Enemies/Bosses, Characters, and Stages, and will have the entire shebang out this coming Wednesday. It’s been a little while since LCT came out, we know, but we pooled…

We’re nearing the end of the walkthrough – there will be posts tomorrow and Tuesday with parts 21 and 22, and then we’ll begin Friday postng the final parts of the visual walkthrough! For now, this part covers Link’s fifth venture into the Temple of the Ocean King. Launch the video!

This part of the walkthrough covers the sixth dungeon, the Temple of Ice. Launch the video!
