If the frequent comparisons between From Software's upcoming blocky adventure title
3D Dot Game Heroes and
The Legend of Zelda have been completely lost on you, then apparently you haven't
seen the gameplay videos. The game does more than slyly reference the mainstays of Miyamoto's Triforce-hunting classic; it more or less
recreates them. We're
definitely not saying that's a bad thing -- we're just worried that Nintendo will eventually
catch wise, and somehow prevent this charming little game from ever making it westward.
Check after the jump for three gameplay clips; the first showing off the game's best
Zelda impression; the second just how
gargantuan the player's sword can become; and the third suggesting the perils of playing through the game as the vertigo-plagued hero from
Spelunker.
