Fair assessment. I just have always preferred Links. TW is fun but I'm
lookin' for a game that is more true to the sport (or whatever you call it).
TW comes out every year, and EA wants gamers to fork out another 40 bills
for what is essentially the same game. A change here or there-- an update,
if you will: I just can't justify the cost against the benefits.
