I got the game about a week ago. It's worth getting it at full price (which varies from $45-55), but I don't think it's the best Zelda ever as many proclaim it is. I still think Ocarina of Time was the best with its bugs or not. I always believed that if they ever think of remaking (graphics and fixing bugs only) any of the Zelda games, OoT should be the first.
I can't help but think that the wolf transformation is just fan service. At least he didn't transform into a fox (the paramount of stereotypical animals used in anime and games).
This game surely was influenced by Ico and Shadow of the Colossus (two great games, btw) graphically. It's very nicely used and a big plus for the twilight sections of the game. I hope other games (like Okami) will continue to use the Ico art style.
The story isn't anything to get worked up for (so far, I'm half way done), controls are good (I'm just playing the Gamecube version), and the fun factor is good. Overall, really, it's a good game. Not great, just good. It just seems something is missing in this game... I can't put my finger on it...
