I recently stumbled across the “Legend of Neil” from a link on Felicia Day's twitter about the most recent episode being put online. Since the first episode was posted 2 years ago I figured that I had totally missed the boat on this internet gem, but after talking to a few nerdy people I realized that most of my nerdy friends had not seen it either. If you have not seen it I highly highly suggest going here and checking it out.
I personally love the Legend of Zelda games. I have always had fun guiding the silent Link on his quests to save Zelda… over and over and over again. If you liked the games you will love this web series. The basic story is a slacker from Trenton NJ with a pretty crappy life is sucked into the Nintendo game "Legend of Zelda" as Link. The series parodies all the things that are common to the Zelda games, like the totally unhelpful mentor guy, the friggen lost woods, as well as a ton of others. I think my favorite though is Gannon's wizard continuously complaining to Gannon about leaving all the helpful items Link needs to finish the levels right where Link can find them. I always thought it was great that every dungeon in the Zelda games had a map with the whole lay out printed on it; wouldn't you want to keep those in a safe totally unhelpful place?
You should definitely go over and watch the whole thing, and if you need any more convincing it has Felicia Day as a nympho nymph... er… fairy.
