<div class="IPBDescription">Very interesting speech for game devs</div>Saw this on IGN:
<a href='http://cube.ign.com/articles/501/501970p1.html' target='_blank'>Eiji Aonuma speaks about the essence of Zelda</a>.

It has a bit of history of the series for those interested, but more interestingly it talks about game design stuff and gives a good insight into what Miyamoto looks for a game and really gives you a bit of understanding into just how brilliant he really is.

Definately recommended reading if you're interested in game design, and even if you're not its still entertaining (though a bit long).

    I still think "Video Game History" should be a college major <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin.gif' /><!--endemo-->

    Damn straight, then maybe I wouldn't have changed my major so many times. Unfortunatly you'd be hard pressed to find a job where a degree in it would be usefull.

    Sweet, a typo.

    Most if this is obvious things that everyone knows. Not really worth the read.
