A Zelda game taking home Game of the Month honors isn’t unheard of. A remastered remake of a Zelda game, however, is a different story. As noted by Game Informer itself, they actively try to avoid giving such games the Game of the Month honor, but they decided that the tweaks and improvements make Majora’s Mask 3D the ideal Majora’s Mask experience. You could also simply argue that February was a pretty barren month for major game software, though they could have easily tipped their cap to Monster Hunter 4. It just must not be their sort of game. Still, this is a pretty neat honor and it helps elevate the status of an already elite franchise.

Do you agree with their selection? Personally, while I am loving Majora’s Mask 3D, I give my nod to Monster Hunter 4. Majora’s Mask 3D is a great game, but it is a remake, while Monster Hunter 4 is an entirely new game, and a really good one at that.
