Smooth Operator Reviews the Legend of Zelda
Posted on November 19 2008 by Nathanial Rumphol-Janc
Way back in 2002, long before any of you were born, Smooth Operator appeared on the Internets to bring us their satirical takes on all of life’s most important issues. Their most recent article, written by Kris, the site’s administrator, is a retro-review of the original Legend of Zelda game.
While most reviews of the Legend of Zelda are overwhelmingly positive, Smooth Operator awards the game a -1,215 out of 10, claiming “This is a horrible game that makes me embarrassed to be an avid video
game player. If Pong had been this bad, not only would Atari have never
released it but they would have locked it away in a twelve inch thick
metal safe where it could never hurt anyone again and all subsequent
video games would have been canceled.”
Nice words! They do, however, admit its story is better than that of Tetris.
