OK, I'll be a bit clearer. The aim of the challenge is to complete the game 100% (minus two pieces of heart for convenience), which means all items, all bottles, all upgrades and all masks. Because of the annoying nature of the target games to get two particular pieces of heart I am allowing...

Simply put, you have to get (almost) 100% complete in 4 cycles (including the initial Deku cycle). I say "almost 100%" because I'll be generous and let you off on the 2 most difficult heart containers (ie the target ones - they're just a pain if you aren't in the zone). Warning: This...

[smug mode]I'm officially awesome! It's 4.36am on the final day and I've saved by the clock tower with every dungeon beaten, 10 hearts, 4 fairies in bottles, the gilded sword and the Postman, Stone, Great Fairy, Keaton, Bremen, Bunny, Romani, Kafei, Couples, Kamaro, Gibdo, Garo, Captain and...

I'm going to give this a bash. Although to make it more of a challenge I'm going to do it from the second cycle, so I'll have to drop a few things from the list for time/practicality reasons. The challenge I'm going to try goes like this: 1.Beat all the bosses (including temples) 2.Beat the...

The status of the run I just described is where I am at the end of just two cycles. I'm quite honestly utterly obsessed with doing a "perfect" second cycle these days. I've got a walkthrough I wrote a couple of months ago which describes what I would now consider a fairly crappy 6 day run. The...

Navi's not annoying. "HEY! LISTEN!" is my text alert tone.

Well, it's 04:54am on the final day (1 hour 6 minutes to moonfall) and I managed to get the fairies from everywhere but snowhead and 3 more heart pieces in the time I had left. So here I am after a mere 6 days with 11 hearts, all items except for two bottles, double defence and the full spin...

A MM master quest would be quite a tricky one to pull of I think, since the dungeons are principally global puzzles (except the first). With OoT they just had to think of a different puzzle for each room. MM would require a bit more thought, but I'd still buy it in a pecosecond.

I'm currently obsessed with MM speed runs so I always do it in 2 cycles these days. But I've decided the next stage of the challenge to be to see how much of the side quests I can get done in those first two cycles. I have a base template from the first cycle which I always play on from in which...

The time limit on MM makes it a different experience every time you play. People complain about the time limit spoiling exploration in the game, but for me it was all about exploration; you just had an added dimension to your exploring. And the Bomber's notebook is pretty damn obvious when you...

You can save whenever you like and anything you pick up will be saved. Basically if it goes in your inventory then you'll have it on the dawn of the first day. So the easiest way to play the game is to just use the Song of Time every time you pick up something important. If you really want to...

If it's not the see-saw room, then it will be the room just off the main swirling area that you change the flow direction of. In the north (I think, it's opposite where you come in at any rate) of that room is a ladder behind a waterfall which you must freeze to access.

Can't post it, but I absolutely love sunrise over Lake Hylia.

You cannot switch off your game after restarting from a save at an owl statue or it will reset to the last time you used the Song of Time. I'm pretty sure this is what you're getting wrong. Edit: As far as the sword goes, you have to get the razor sword first (by dawn of the 2nd day) and then...

Have you read what the owl statue says when you save? It's made quite clear that you cannot reset the game after saving at an owl statue and return to the save. You have to either use an owl statue again or save using the Song of Time. If you have access to both save slots and you expect...

Every time I play it these days I find myself wanting to get up into the moon in one cycle which of course puts you under an enormous time pressure in the first day, after that it's pretty easily done but the challenge then becomes to get as many side quests and masks as possible. The next time...

I fancied getting Navi's "Hey! Listen!" as a text alert tone and went browsing for stuff and I found this website if anyone is interested: Legend of Zelda sound effects by HelpTheWretched So I've managed to get the tone I wanted but the ideas are endless. Tingle, the fishman from WW...

I was playing MM the other day and as I tend to, I was doing the speed run to get to Epona on the first cycle. It takes about 2 hours to do it and I was riding off to Icana Canyon to meet the soldier with the stone mask when.... the fuses blew in the bottom electrics. Console switches off. 2...

I think it's a weird but wonderful aspect to the game. Up until you hit 5000 of course then the saving side gets binned (why? surely let us build up an account for no reason). It's actually the only thing I can't justify with the Ocarina of Time. Every item in Link's possession when he uses...

In the overworld it's not a problem at all. In fact it's quite a bonus. However, in a dungeon it is very annoying because (and I'm sure most people here would agree) you always want to leave the dungeon as complete as you possibly can and if your map still has chests on it then you don't feel...

I'd like the option to use a classical style of controller. It's not that the SS controls are bad; they're a huge improvement on TP. It's just that sometimes you feel like playing a game without having to wave your arms around.

OoT was my first Zelda game (and obviously the first 3D one for anyone playing them in order of release) so I probably took longer to complete the Deku tree than Dodongo's cavern first time around because I was just getting to grips with a totally new control. But looking from a totally...

The only irritation was when you had made sure plans for exactly where you were going first thing after you reset and you got so fixated on that goal that you forgot to stock up, headed straight there and, oh... I need bombs/arrows/whatever for this bit. Damn it!

That's a really good point. You can do it anyway you see fit (within reason). And how often do you restart the cycle only to pause the game and think "OK, so where can I go to next?", as opposed to "Where do I have to go next?"

Funny. It was my OCD that led me to try it in the first place. Different strokes and all that. So if anyone is interested and has 6 and a half hours to spare, my playlist is up on youtube. How sad am I? Majora's Mask In 3 Game Days - YouTube

Depends on your definition of glitch. If you think getting to Snowhead without finishing the previous temple is a glitch then I used 3 glitches in total. But I tend to do OoT as out of order as I can just for the hell of it. But I never used any of the weird glitches like flying through the air...

You have to abandon the idea of finishing the first two temples at the first attempt if you want to get to Epona. And that is the key. I've edited and merged my video now. I'll upload it to youtube and link it soon. It's slightly embarrassing, however, as I was a little drunk on some parts...

Thanks. Although it's less to keep track of than you'd think. Most runs I've seen described involve doing the Anju/Kafei stuff, which I discovered is not necessary if you get the Romani mask. Some might argue you're wasting time helping the cows for 3 hours but it gets you what you need for the...

Generally, I'm much the same with a Zelda game, but the unique format of MM just made the whole thing irresistable as a concept. And you're right of course you need to know exactly where every key is and also remember to get it! That was probably the cause of more resets than anything else. A...

Can't find anything in the main forums on this, there was something in a group so I figured I'd make a new thread. First of all definitions. By 3 days I don't mean the first 3 where you get your ocarina back. I tend to consider that portion of the game as an 'intro' to familiarise you with the...

I can speak to Guru Guru all day long. Always makes me laugh.

Majora's Mask has been my favourite for some time. Except when I first played it and I moaned like a little kid that it wasn't like OoT. But it grew on me. I've enjoyed the challenges that it presents like getting all masks in two cycles (not including the first as a Deku), which I managed some...
