In this episode of Octal FM, we discuss our two favourite games from one of our favourite series of all time; The Legend of Zelda.

• The best way to play Ocarina of Time and Majora's Mask is the 3DS remakes:
  • Buy Ocarina of Time 3DS*
  • Buy Majora's Mask 3DS*

In this episode we return to the topic of platformers. All the things we love, some of the things we hate. Not much in the way of notes for this episode; we really just sit back and have a bit of a chat. Enjoy!

In this ‘The Best Ever’ episode, Jalada and Sefran try to agree on which game in the Super Mario series is the best; Super Mario Sunshine, or Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island?
