Mine was the Spirit Temple in OOT. It had a great boss, great enemies, and the fact that you played it as young and adult Link was cool. Iron Knuckles, 500 year old witches, and a giant sculpture of a woman, it had it all.

Water Temple(OoT) - The complexity in that temple drove me nuts and you fight shadow link. O ya, lots of BLUE!
Hmm...I can't even think of any more right now...

As for my favorites: All the adult link temples in OoT except for the water temple. That's pretty much it.
I can't choose from the ones in WW because for some reason I don't remember tham as well, and I can't replay them because my disk broke ;__;. WW was going to be one of the only games that I was going to finish twice, and I hadn't even beaten Dragon's Roost Cavern when it broke. 
Although I do really like the Forbidden Fortress.

Maybe I should go back and try it again. I have a save file in LA that's stuck at that exact point that I haven't touched in about a year. (can you guess why?) I WILL DEFEAT YOU GIANT PILLAR.

Perhaps Shadow, if only for the ambience.

I find I only really remember the details for two types of dungeons for each game (neither of which are usually my favourite): the first dungeon and the hardest dungeon. The first dungeon because it's at that point that everything in the game is still fresh and that "I'm playing a new Zelda game!" feeling is still with you. Plus if I ever go back and play a Zelda game again the first dungeon is usually the only one I beat before I decide to do something else.
The hardest dungeon of course I always remember because often it's a huge pain in the ass to get through. Eagle's Tower is by far the king in this category. Other ones I found really hard include the Shadow Temple (I HATE invisible stuff and using the hover boots), Stone Towers (that's the upside down one, correct?) and probably the easiest dungeon to get lost in, Skull Woods.
In terms of worst game for dungeons I would go with the first game because all of the dungeons for the most part look the same and are pretty uninteresting. Wind Waker has by far the most boring 3D dungeons though. The best game for dungeons would be Majora's Mask. Even though it had only four dungeons the dungeons it had were all huge, complex, and pretty hard. There were no short easy dungeons that could be beat in ten minutes in that one. A Link to the Past has the best 2D dungeons.

That's me in OoT. As much as I love the game, I get past the Deku Tree and just kind of lose my interest. Then I aimlessly wander away looking dazed and confused and stumble up the stairs into my room where I proceed to attempt to shut off the wrong alarm clock. True story.
Actually, the Shadow Temple was one of my favorites in OoT. I also love the Shadow and Forest Temple. Thos are perhaps my three favoite in a Zelda game. I just find 2D dungeons less interesting. Not that I don't enjoy them. In fact right now I am in the middle of A link to the past on the SNES and loving it (WAY better than on the GBA. That one sucked in comparison to this. Same game, but playing the original is just way better.) I guess it was because I first got into gaming with the N64 so I was used to 3D. Yeah,

I think that the WW dungeons were the best dungeons Visually but in terms of gameplay they were too linear.
Post by: Hostile Creation on January 08, 2004, 02:40:22 PM
My favorite dungeons are from WW and MM. . . the puzzles seemed so much more innovative. OoT had some awesome stuff, too, of course, but stuff like the two person co-op in the Wind and Earth temples were much more interesting than most things in OoT. And Stone Tower in MM was very cool.

I dunno, maybe I'm just older and wiser, but the puzzles in WW seemed so bloody easy!

Plus I didnt like the 1st dungeon of MM. It was really short!

Water Temple (OoT) loved how I lost all my hair and the fight with dark link. Complexity of mixing sinking and floating with the iron boots was awesome.
Ice Temple w/ Goron Link (MM) Forgive my horrible memory. After blasting through the first temple, this one gave me new respect for MM. I hate to FALL.
Spirit Temple (OoT) loved the boss fight and how you had to go back in time to beat it. Mirror Shield = item better than anyting Din, Nayru, or Farore could ever give you. (Ignoring it in SC2)
Temple where you got Roc's feather (OoA) I thought white men in green clothes can't jump? Jumping added a whole new dimension to Zelda for me, and I was really hoping they were going to put Roc's feather/cape in WW.
Stone Tower (MM) the climb up was awesome. Fliping the dungeon was incredible.
Temple where you get that switchy thingy (LttP)
Temple where the boss is a segmented blob thing that knocks you down the dungeon (LttP)
Sorry about the indefinite names sounds like I gots ta play LttP again.

Switchy thingy? I'm guessing you mean the hookshot...If so, you got it in the Swamp Palace(dungeon 2 in the Dark World)
Temple where the boss is a segmented blob thing that knocks you down the dungeon (LttP)
That's a Moldorm...Dungeon: Tower of Hera

Second is Stone Towers from MM. REALLY big dungeon, and the timelimit of 72 hours (or minutes) isn't really helping. The Boss of this dungeon has een done very nice, I'd been wondering how the sandworms would look in 3d ever since I fought the 3 worms in AlttP, in the second dungeon.
Third would be the Earth Temple in WW. Way better use of mirrors than in the n64 games, and of course you get to control Medli, I love that girl...

Well, I'm in turtle rock in alttp, and all teh pipes confuse me. =P I don't usually make it to the end of a pipe before shutting it off though. That dungeon frustrates me only second to Eagle's Tower. >_<
But...........as much as I LOVE exploring, I always have a tendancy to DO things too organized and it overwhelms me. For example, in turtle rock (alttp), I always feel as if I have to go through one pipe, explore until I come to a fork, adn then go explore another path, so I don't forget where I've been or where to go I want to explore everything at once.. Doing this throughout a whole dungeon gets pretty frusterating. It's a major problem that I have,

I hated that dungeon beause on two seperate games the ball got stuck on a wall and compleltly screwed up my game. That was so annoying.

Guess who?
I hate eagle's tower! THat ball thing is so annoying. On two games I managed to get the ball stuck in exactly the same place, on a wall with the only place i could pick it up being a pit. Sodding puzzles!
I guess at least we know you're not lying. =P
