The third game in the legendary Zelda series (after The Legend of Zelda and Zelda II: The Adventure of Link for the NES), The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past is widely regarded as one of the greatest games of all time for any console.

As far as platform games go, this is one of the best-looking ones you'll ever find. Each stage is filled with vivid, colorful background scenery and well-animated animals, both large and small. The levels are designed so you can interact with many of the ...read the complete The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past review at The Video Game Critic

The Legend of Zelda was released in 1992 to continue the Zelda series and try to keep the game elements of the original for the NES, unlike Zelda 2 for the NES which was a side scroller. ...read the complete The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past review at World of Video Games

Let me start off by saying I'm a huge fan of the Zelda series. Infact I even bought a 400 dollar CDI just to play the 2 Zelda games available for it. Was it worth it? No way. ...read the complete The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past review at World of Video Games

This is how to make a videogame. The Legend of Zelda series has been breaking ground from the very first game, as witnessed when it became the first cartridge-based title to have a battery-save. The legend took a strange turn in Zelda 2: The Adventure ...read the complete The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past review at Games are Fun

I remember the rain. Unlike some heavy-handed ‘traditional Role-playing games' (RPGs), Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past, or Zelda III (as it is often called), wastes no time in touching you. The beginning has become cliché—we all know and have ...read the complete The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past review at HonestGamers

The best of them all... That's one way to put it. This game came out about three-and-a-half years after the somewhat criticized Zelda II, which had put people into two camps about the game. One camp thought of the game as an unusual but very worthy ...read the complete The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past review at PGNx Media

After the previous successes of the past 2 Zelda games on the legendary NES console, it seemed that developing a sequel to the original Zelda title would be and excellent way to use their newfound 16-bit technology, and in 1992 the company spawned the ...read the complete The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past review at Cubed3

Perfect would be the word to almost describe this masterpiece that Nintendo created. Link to the Past scored big in Japan and in America. Many age levels played this awesome game too, you had kids with the age of 9-10, and adults with the age of 20-45 ...read the complete The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past review at All RPG

The Legend of Zelda series is probably the most consistently good collection of video games there is in the business. Very rarely does a Zelda game not hit the spot, and even when it doesn't, the game still manages to be above average.

Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past, sometimes called Zelda 3, was the third game in Nintendo's famed Zelda series. Like the other games in the series, Zelda 3 is an adventure game.

For almost as long as there has been Nintendo, there has also been the Legend of Zelda series. With each of Nintendo's systems, the games took on new form.

The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past is the only Zelda game for the SNES, and, in my opinion, it is the best. It has a lot of hidden items, several unexpected game twists, and excellent control and gameplay. ...read the complete The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past review at World of Video Games
