  Not Even a Legit Title in the Series
  
  There is no doubt that The Legend of Zelda video gaming series is one of Nintendo's greatest accomplishments, in which a character named Link would fight to save the land and the people, primarily from Ganon. Each of the games has been praised as a classic throughout the years, from its humble beginnings in The Legend of Zelda to the most recent three-dimensional adventures.
  
  For each game series, there's always bound to be a black sheep to show up. One of these black sheep is called "Link: Faces of Evil", in which Link must defeat Ganon, save Zelda, and become the almighty hero of Koridai. Sounds like your typical Legend of Zelda game, but it's a far cry from it.
  
  First off, the graphics are just plain terrible, especially during the cutscenes. (You can most likely find them on YouTube, they're so bad they're hilarious.) It shows that Philips were given limited time with the development, so it obviously looks rushed. The game controls are awful as well, as they don't respond well at all. Plus I hate to spoil it all, but to defeat Ganon, all you do is throw the Book of Koridai at him and then you've saved the princess. There's no effort put into this game, this is just a cheap way for Philips to exploit some of Nintendo's characters and turn them into a complete joke of themselves.
  
  It's funny how this game became very valuable, despite Nintendo only acknowledging for cursory input and that the game is poorly produced. Nintendo disregarded this title (as well as the two other Zelda CD-i titles) for a reason.
