I hate, read: HATE floating over-the-shoulder cameras! You ALWAYS have to re-center with the damn things. Give me first person or a locked over the shoulder cam and I'd be happy.


Zelda in first person? Or locked? That would be nearly impossible to play. And how hard is it to press the L button to re-center the camera?


The point is that with every move I make the camera moves as well. No, it's not hard to re-center but it becomes an annoyance when I have to do it every 10 seconds.


I actually prefer manually moving the camera. With the exception of FPS's I've never played a 3rd person 3D game where automatic camera adjustment worked.

Two of the biggst offenders are gaming classics - Tomb Raider and Ninja Gaiden. Two very different games, with very shitty cameras.
