Link's new stealth moves came into play in one of the demo's levels, in which he explores the "Island of the Mystical Beast," a heavily guarded fortress. Hiding in the shadows, edging along walls and crawling through ducts help avoid capture here.

Giant searchlights sweep through the area, and Link can even hide inside a barrel to elude the nasty patrolling Moblins.

It's this kind of intense gameplay that eliminated any concern over Zelda's challenge being scaled back to match the new kiddie look.

Another playable area featured a colossal centipede living in a pool of molten lava. While it was tempting to just stand and stare in slack-jawed amazement at this beast and its writhing animations, we found that fighting the monstrosity was actually the highlight of Zelda demo.

Link's meager sword was no match for the critter's armored skin; we needed a little ingenuity to prevail. With Link's hookshot and a careful aim, we swung over the fiery pit and loosened a large boulder looming overhead. Three of these swings brought the rocks tumbling down onto the monster, weakening it enough for our sword to hurt it. And there ya go: a perfect Zelda boss battle--challenging, innovative and breathtaking.

So, now that you've seen the amazing new graphics and experienced the solid game-play, what else about Zelda could surprise you? The plot. The game's official tagline, "The Legend is Reborn," is right on. As the game opens, Link celebrates his 12th birthday with his grandmother and sister in their quaint fishing town.

Grandma gives him his trademark green duds, while Arril, his sis, presents him with a nifty telescope. He looks skyward and spies a huge, evillooking bird being attacked by a nearby pirate ship.

The frazzled bird drops a mysterious girl into the forest and Link investigates. Just as he reaches her, however, the bird swoops down and snatches Arril with its talons. With a sword in hand and a damsel in distress, Link's adventure has begun. We like the intro and new characters, but questions fill our heads. Where is Princess Zelda? What about series boss Ganon? Is this world even Hyrule? Sadly, Miyamoto isn't talking about the storyline.

All we got out of him was a sly, elfin smile. When Nintendo announced their decision to use cel-shading for the next Zelda, there were few initially who were enthused about the idea to say the least. You want a Progress Report even after three articles this month? Okaaaay, it has been a while So here were are, bleary eyed and with three months worth of changes to go through.

Please enjoy while we go collapse in the corner. I however, have been converted as Nintendo's risk has paid off significantly with another fantastic Zelda game. Set a hundred years after Ocarina of Time, Link's adventure starts off simple enough with a birthday gift from his grandmother. Things quickly turn sour however as his sister is kidnapped and he finds himself traveling across immense oceans as he tries to rescue her. Similar in many ways to Ocarina of Time, Wind Waker continues to build off the past success with numerous islands to explore, dungeons to get through, and obstacles to overcome.

In addition, everything is pulled together with a solid story line that builds off of Link's past adventures. There are areas that may cause some disappointment however as many will find the bosses at the end of each level to be less than challenging. Most can be beaten easily and require little thought to get through. Another issue is the graphics. Personally, I expected to be unsatisfied with the cel-shading but was amazed at the textures and detail that is possible with this type of graphics design.

Some still may have a difficult time accepting the goony looking Link but I'd at least wait to pass judgment until you see it for yourself. A new link is the hero this time around, in a Hyrule bound together by vast oceans.

Link has to use the wind to his advantage as he sales off in set of new islands in the new area to explore. Ganondorf has return Zelda - but not in ways you might think casual to the franchise.
