I am loving 3d dot game heroes!!! (like almost all Atlus releases!) and I look at the PS3 section of gamespot and it isn't even listed on popular, or out now. The game came out today. I was the only one out of around 50 people playing the game. I have heard very little hype from people on here (except maybe a few months ago when announced for us release) Is no one excited about this game?

I am wondering if it is a retro thing, that newer gamers don't get? I am also in love with playing Holy invasion of Privacy badman 2! Another game that gets very little hype and is just fantastic. It shares the 8/16 bit disign astetic. Maybe its a generational thing. I seem to love old school throwbacks and dungeon crawlers, and pretty much anything Atlus puts out there. I guess if its not a shooter or a super production value game it gets little fanfare around these parts.

I'm am getting it for sure, reviewers are harsh on the game because some don't like the fact that they took the old Zelda and made it awesome

I told my friend to get it, but he said he'd never heard of the game before, and he's the sort of person I'd assume would automatically know when a game like this comes out considering he owns a PSP/DS/PS3 just for games like these.

I'm sure he's forgotten about it by now.

I'll just go with the fact that it's not a AAA production, nor does it have any advertising.

Zelda was already awesome the way it was. I get what your trying to say though.

I like 3d dot heroes and plan to pick it up sooner or latter. I just don't really know after beating Zelda so many times during my youth if I really want to play a remake. Maybe others are thinking the same thing. Then you also have others who might think if I wanted to play Zelda why not buy it for $5 on VC. I am in no way saying the game is bad please don't take it that way. It just as a lot against it. The least not being coming out in a month of other really good games.

I also think the game would do better on a handheld.

In gaming mags it does. Outside of that Atlus never advertise anything they developed and published

A AA average isn't harsh. That's GREAT. I'll get it sometime... maybe. I love Zelda but I feel like I'd rather just replay Wind Waker or something. Besides I never beat Link to the Past... DON'T LOOK AT ME... so I could just do that instead. 3DDGH looks hilarious though.

Blasphemy. This concept of buying what you think will appeal to you is foreign to us. It's all about teh AAAE review scores and realistic graphics.

For me this game is a real treat! I am 31 and grew up with the old school Zelda 1 as my first action adventure game. I remember getting the gold cart and feeling the mystery overtake my senses as I played the game. Dragon Warrior/Quest 1 was my first Console rpg and this game takes from that as well. It takes from a lot of games I used to love as I grew up in the 80's with a NES controller in my hand. I never cared for Zelda too much after Link to the Past. The 3d ones while nice just didn't cut it for me, especially the ones after OOT (OOT was great though). I guess its the same with dungeon crawlers too. I love old school turn based dungeong crawlers and the new games that come out with the same mechanic (etrian odyssey, dark spire, cIass of Heroes, SMT games etc..) While most people it seems would rather have a rpg like newer FF. The game is great so far. Loads of humor. It even detected the fact that I own a slim ps3 (just replaced my fat) and an NPC commented about it to me! I am loving the humor art, option choices like camera angle, and that you can make your own characters and switch when you load the game. i will be playing this for a long time.

My brother bought it. Can't play it until his birthday though >>

However, I am dissapointed by it's score here. It at least deserved a 8.0.

Good game, not as bad as a lot of people make it out to be. I always thought of Wind Waker and a Link to the Past to be the best ones.

Ya it does.... you said I'm not getting because I don't want it. I'm joking saying it's not possible, if a game is AAA and has good graphics you have to buy it, even if you don't want it. That's the joke :P.

I love both of those except for the triforce hunting bit in wind waker. I just love MM because its very unique within the Zelda series.

Red Dead comes first, then ModNation, then 3D Dot. That's how it is going to work, son.

i think for me the novelty would wear off after a few hours and id be left planing a 20 year old game with 20 year old gameplay which i really don't see the appeal of.

sure i REALLY enjoyed those games back in the day but i have no desire to play them now.

If 3D dot game heroes should be downloadable then every other game in existence should be downloadable. I dont see why should we have to buy them as retail games. :roll:

I'm not getting it because I went to the store yesterday and the game is still yet to ship. It was supposed to arrive, but they said it never did. Then they said tomorrow, which would be today--so I'm hoping its there.

Picked it up yesterday after pre-ordering. I played through the first two dungeons last night and it's a great game. A loving homage to Zelda, a good bit of humor and fun gameplay.

Thanks for admitting that the devs ripped off Zelda.... it's funny how you unwittingly did so. Anyway... I'm not buying it, I'll save my money for games that aren't blatant rip-offs of others.

PS. Zelda >>>>>>>3D Dot Heroes, only acow would argue.

Nobody is arguing that. Homage is a better description of the game. Its pretty obvious the game was made by people that loved zelda and miss playing games of that vein.

Why aren't people buying the game? Look at it! It doesn't look too great, and the gameplay is derived from a game that's about 20 years old. I don't know if I'll ever get it. I want other games, and I can't afford a lot of video games like I use to.
