The "Which is Better?" Thread

Forest Temple (TP) or Forest Temple (OoT)?

Goron Mines or Fire Temple?

Lakebed Temple or Water Temple?

Arbiters Grounds or Spirit Temple?

Master Sword or Light Sword?

Fire Arrows or Bomb Arrows?

Ocarina Warping or Wolf Warping?

Navi or Midna?

King of Red Lions or Epona?

Gorons or Zoras?

Wii Version or GCN Version TP?

Blue Tunic or Zora Armor?

Warp Pots (WW) or Farores Wind?

Phantom Ganon or Zant?

Ganondorf or Vaati?

Ritos or Koroks?

Deku Tree (WW) or Deku Tree (OoT)?

Nayrus Love or Magic Armor?

Lastly...

Twilight Princess or Ocarina of Time?

I'll only do a few because that's a fair amount but:

Forest Temple because it will always be my favourite dungeon of OoT due to the layout and music, however I really liked the one in TP.

Navi vs Midna? Hmm, I'm still undecided on this. Maybe Navi because I prefer Link with his classic fairy but then again Midna is far more developed.

Zora Armour of course, it looked brilliant and very well deisgned.

Bomb Arrows are a must from now on, very fun to play around with.

King Or Red Lions or Epona? Hmm, I really enjoyed the sailing in WW but Epona is faster and I like Horses.

Lastly, TP or Oot? I don't know.

Forest Temple (TP) or Forest Temple (OoT)?

Definately OoT forest temple. It had poe hunting, great puzzles, a cool boss, and pretty much beats TP's Forest Temple in every way.

Goron Mines or Fire Temple?

Goron Mines for sure. It had the perfect mixture of linearity and complexity. The Fire temple just isn't my type, especially the music.

Lakebed Temple or Water Temple?

Most definately Lakebed. I liked the staircase puzzle way more than the water level changing, and the puzzles aren't mind killing like the water temple. The only thing that lacks in Lakebed is Dark Link.

Arbiters Grounds or Spirit Temple?

Arbiter's Grounds by very, very FAR. Spirit Temple was my favorite temple in OoT, but Arbiter's Grounds beats it in terms of the puzzles, boss, miniboss, theme(Poe hunting), atmosphere, etc. However, the spirit temple had kazzilions of iron knuckles which were very fun to fight.

Master Sword or Light Sword?

What's a light sword?

Fire Arrows or Bomb Arrows?

While Fire arrows seemed to be more classic, bomb arrows are just waaaaaaaaay cooler, deal more damage, and could destroy rocks. Too bad it can't melt ice.

Ocarina Warping or Wolf Warping?

Wolf Warping. DEFINATELY Wolf Warping. I hate going through the pain of playing a stupid song, and watching the boring cutscene of Link playing an Ocarina. Really, it sucks.

Navi or Midna?

While Navi's more popular, Midna's just way better then Navi. I like yawns and giggles better then stupid hey listen's, and Midna has a good backstory and character development.

King of Red Lions or Epona?

Epona. More classic, feels faster, and travels on land. I hate the great sea. It's so...empty. I do, however, love Wind Waker(But not as much as TP).

Gorons or Zoras?

Zoras. I can't explain why, but there's just something in them that makes me like them.

Wii Version or GCN Version TP?

There's no way in hell GCN version could be better. NO WAY! Swinging the remote is way more innovative then pressing the B button, and the spin attack's so easy to do that it's actually worth doing this time. Who cares about camera control?

Blue Tunic or Zora Armor?

Zora armor. Really, it's obvious why it's better.

Warp Pots (WW) or Farores Wind?

Farore's Wind. It's way better, since it adds more freedom unlike the warp pots which could only warp you between two places.

Phantom Ganon or Zant?

Most definately Phantom Ganon. Phantom Zant was just a wierd hologram of Zant whice is extremely easy to beat and doesn't do anything but summon enemies.

Ganondorf or Vaati?

Ganondorf. More evil, more popular, blah blah blah.

Ritos or Koroks?

Ritos. I like every single thing about them more then the Koroks. Really, I can't put all the resons in just one quote.

Deku Tree (WW) or Deku Tree (OoT)?

WW Deku Tree for sure. It was more entertaining, since it had a funny face and bared the deku leaf at its highest branch. Stupid OoT Deku Tree has all the arts and thou's.

Nayrus Love or Magic Armor?

Dunno. Never tried Magic Armor or Nayru's Love. This is mainly because I don't care about sidequests.

Twilight Princess or Ocarina of Time?

Definately Possitively undoubtfuly for sure Twilight Princess. I could just keep going on and on about how perfect that game is. Unfortunately, there's just too much good things about that game for me to put in just one post.

Eh, OOT. TP lacked epic music.

Wow this is alot to think about. O.o

Forest Temple (TP) < Forest Temple (OoT) = Ocarina of Time's is my favorite temple ever. I love it, especially that twisted hallway.

Goron Mines > Fire Temple = Fire temple is so plain looking, I'd say Goron Mines. Plues the magnetic walls were cool.

Lakebed Temple > Water Temple = Lakebed was better becuase it was just slightly easier to not get lost in.

Arbiters Grounds < Spirit Temple = Spirit temple was brighter and a lot harder seeing as you had to change from a Kid to an Adult to complete it.

Master Sword > Light Sword = What's the light sowrd?

Fire Arrows > Bomb Arrows - Fire Arrows are cheaper, in fact you can get them free. Stupid expensive bombs...

Ocarina Warping > Wolf Warping = Ocarina Warping seemed was more beautiful, the tunes will be with me forever.

Navi > Midna = Midna is overrated, so Navi

King of Red Lions < Epona = I grew up with Epona, so...

Gorons < Zoras = Zoras are way cooler, they always live in extremely cool areas in the games.

Wii Version = GCN Version TP = Haven't played Wii, so I'll just say they're equal.

Blue Tunic > Zora Armor = Blue is better. I have no idea why, I just like it more.

Warp Pots (WW) > Farores Wind = Warp pots, I've never used Farores Wind, well once maybe.

Phantom Ganon > Zant = Never fought Zant, so I'm going to go with Phantom Ganon, his fight s always epic.

Ganondorf > Vaati = Never fought Vaati in my life, so I'll say Ganon.

Ritos > Koroks = Ritos are very cool, just because...

Deku Tree (WW) < Deku Tree (OoT) = The WW one is ugly, so OoT

Nayrus Love > Magic Armor = Nayrus love looks better and is easier to get.

Twilight Princess < Ocarina of Time = OoT was much better, it actually took some skill.

Hmm - at first I thought this would be a 'mention the name only' thread, which would be spammy.
However, seeng as people are explaining their choices, I think this thread may remain open so long as the effort in posts continue.
Remember though - one-word answers will be deleted, too many of them and this'll be locked for spam.
Carry on the good posting.

OoT Forest Temple, as it was bigger, eerier, and simply more awesome looking. Plus, the music was fantastic! Perfectly sets the mood.

Goron Mines or Fire Temple?

Not sure, they were both pretty good.

Lakebed Temple or Water Temple?

Water Temple got on my nerves, so perhaps Lakebed Temple.

Arbiters Grounds or Spirit Temple?

I never really liked the Spirit Temple that much, so Arbiter Grounds.

Master Sword or Light Sword?

Master Sword, I guess.

Fire Arrows or Bomb Arrows?

Bomb Arrows, because they go "BOOOOM!"

Ocarina Warping or Wolf Warping?

Ocarina Warping because with wolf warping you had to be turned into a wolf in order to do so, and once finished warping you were still a wolf, which I find rather annoying.

Navi or Midna?

Midna's a better character than Navi, but she's often times too involved in the story, taking away the focus on Link. Navi didn't do this, but she was rather bland. Overall, I suppose I'd pick Midna.

King of Red Lions or Epona?

The King was faster than Epona, so I suppose the KoRL.

Gorons or Zoras?

Gorons. Their big, strong, can curl up and roll around at high speeds, and can eat rocks. Zoras are cool, too, but I do perfer the Goron.

Wii Version or GCN Version TP?

GCN Version, definately. The Wii version annoys me. The wiggling the Wiimote for swinging the sword feels awkward because his swings aren't in sync with my swings of the Wiimote. The many many sounds coming out of the Wiimote speaker sounds ridiculously cheap-like. It's just... Odd. The Gamecube version is much better, in my opinion.

Blue Tunic or Zora Armor?

Blue Tunic. The Zora Armor looks... Well, stupid.

Warp Pots (WW) or Farores Wind?

I never used Farore's Wind, but the Warp Pots were mighty handy, so I'd say Warp Pots.

Phantom Ganon or Zant?

Zant. He's more original than Phantom Ganon and he's crazy!

Ganondorf or Vaati?

Not sure, I like them both pretty much the same.

Ritos or Koroks?

Koroks. The Ritos are hard to look at.

Deku Tree (WW) or Deku Tree (OoT)?

OoT Deku Tree, because WW Deku Tree is absolutely hideous!

Nayrus Love or Magic Armor?

Not really sure because I never use either one.

Lastly...

Twilight Princess or Ocarina of Time?

Well, they were both really great games, though I'd probably have to say Ocarina of Time. Twilight Princess was good and all, but for some reason it left me with a very empty feeling. Ocarina of Time did not. Plus, I have fonder memories playing Ocarina of Time as it took me much longer to beat it the first time. TP took me only ten days...

OoT's Forest Temple: the atmosphere and the music were awesome. Half the time I was looking over my shoulder expecting to get freaked out. Which the boss did nicely.

Originally Posted by Acid

OoT's Fire Temple. Again, the atmosphere was great. You really felt like you were inside an active volcano, and Volvagia was an awesome boss. It felt dangerous, and rescuing the Gorons added to that serious feeling.

Originally Posted by Acid

Lakebed Temple or Water Temple?

Lakebed Temple. It felt about equal with the Water Temple in terms of atmosphere, but LT was far more original in the ways you progressed through. Water powered mechanisms, waterslides and the swimming/underwater parts were totally awesome. Morpheel was amazing too, by far my fav TP boss.

Spirit Temple. Arbiter's Grounds truly creeped me out, and I enjoyed the mirrors/light aspect of ST.

Originally Posted by Acid

Light Sword. It's cool how they brought back the glowing aspect from ALTTP ( only one scene in OoT with it doing that ) The Light Sword felt more powerful.

Originally Posted by Acid

Fire Arrows or Bomb Arrows?

Fire Arrows. While Din's Fire could do the job nicely most of the time, I just liked them more. It's a tough call for sure.

Originally Posted by Acid

Ocarina Warping or Wolf Warping?

Ocarina Warping hands down. Each locale had it's own special ( and appropriately fitting ) tune. And the songs where enjoyable to listen to.

Navi or Midna?

As a character? Midna. As a sidekick? Navi. I loved Midna a great deal, but Navi let you do stuff more on your own.

Originally Posted by Acid

King of Red Lions or Epona?

KoRL. I still think sailing in a Zelda game is the most original way of transportation I've seen yet and the KoRL was both a great sidekick and an integral character.

Originally Posted by Acid

Gorons or Zoras?

Zoras. I think the way I'd judge this is by how much I enjoyed being one in MM: definately Zoras.

Originally Posted by Acid

I've never tried the Wii, and I've heard it lacked free camera ( which I love ) in TP. So GCN version.

Originally Posted by Acid

Blue Tunic or Zora Armor?

Zora Armor. Much cooler looking, and the swimming in TP was much more natural and fun. Closer to being a Zora like in MM.

Originally Posted by Acid

Warp Pots (WW) or Farores Wind?

Farore's Wind. It was very useful being able to set your own warp points, especially in places like the Fire Temple, where you could use it to essentially undo a 3 floor drop.

Phantom Ganon or Zant?

Zant. He was both a seperate entity and had a backstory. And he was hilarious to fight.

Ganondorf or Vaati?

Ganondorf. He had Vaati as a minion in FSA, therefore he must rule.

Originally Posted by Acid

Ritos or Koroks?

Koroks. They were closest we could get to the Kokiri, so they felt somewhat familiar ( which was comforting in such a new world ) and they were adorable.

Originally Posted by Acid

Deku Tree (WW) or Deku Tree (OoT)?

WW Deku Tree. He had way more personality, and he seemed more connected( fatherly ) to Link than the OoT Deku Tree did, despite him being raised there.

Originally Posted by Acid

Nayrus Love or Magic Armor?

Magic Armor. Link looks awesome ( like a Prince! ) and I usually have a surplus of Rupees to burn so it's handy.

Twilight Princess or Ocarina of Time?

OoT. I've stated my reasons before, but TP was essentially using OoT as a template...yet it missed some very important things, like the importance of Ganondorf and Zelda to Hyrule and a plot set in Hyrule.
OoT itself wasn't that original, ( building heavily on ALTTP ) yet it seemed new. Something TP did not.
And like the guy above said, I too felt empty after TP, and I definately did not after OoT. Probably due to the last scene in OoT, which TP did not emulate with Midna.
