Every few years, a game comes along that makes us want to unplug the phone, call in sick or just vanish from the face of the earth for a few days. No, its not a social disease, its Zelda. RPG fans know that when one of these adventures comes our way, we can take a brief hiatus from the stressful and mundane to romp in a world of fantasy.

Last month, we were visited by the latest incarnation of one of Shigeru Miyamoto's greatest creations: The Legend of Zelda - The Wind Waker. I can only imagine how many sick days were taken late last month. ^_^

Today, we're proud to present to you our first editor review of this soon-to-be classic for the Nintendo GameCube. Josh has been in a reverie over the title for the last few weeks and has managed to put his thoughts to paper. I believe you'll enjoy the review of what he calls, "one of the finest video games ever created."
