1) INTRODUCTION

- The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past -

What a game. This game was released way back in 1992 and I still find myself coming back to it almost 10 years later. Can you think of any other game that does that to you? Not many. Not many people will argue with me when I say that The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past is still

one of the greatest games of all time.

I always say that Nintendo takes special pride in the Zelda series. Every single Zelda game that Nintendo churns out is a finely tuned gaming masterpiece. No matter what the system, no matter what the limitations, it comes out as an amazing game. Nintendo has brought the Zelda magic to 8-bit, 16-bit, 64-bit, and even portable systems. If you ask me, I say that this one is the best.

The level design is the best of any game I've ever played, the graphics are clean and colorful, the music is dramatic and memorable, and the challenge is just right. It's perfect in almost every area, and it all comes together to produce a pinnacle of all video gaming.

To set the stage for this adventure of the legendary Hero of Hyrule, it will be informative to delve into the Triforce myth, an ancient epic about the creation of the world that is still believed in the land of Hyrule. Every culture has such myths and theories about the creation of their worlds, and it can be beneficial and entertaining to examine them in detail, for they often affect the present day social structure. The legends say the mythical gods of Hyrule had as their chosen people the Hylia. These ancient people left scrolls that are the primary source of the legends.
