Zelda 2's combat system has so much strategy and depth and absolutely obliterates the simplistic combat systems of Zelda 1 and 3. I love all three games and they are masterpieces. In fact, it's difficult for me to chose which favorite Zelda game between the first four console releases. I'm going to cheat and say that my favorite Zelda game is a four-way tie between the first four Zelda console games. Zelda 1-4
Edit: That was harsh. Sorry.
