Zelda clones. Which are your faves?

This may sound weird for me to ask here, but what is one of your favorite Zelda clones?

Mine is Sphinx and the Cursed Mummy on the PS2. It basically blends everything Zelda has with pure platforming.

A few others I like are Dragon Ball: Origins (only thing not Zelda about it was the fact that it was stage based, but in most ways relates to Zelda) and Star Fox Adventures (formerly Rare's Dinosaur Planet).

None of these are Zelda clones, in fact most of them are highly original of their respective genres. Banjo Kazooie is a platformer for crying out loud.

Darksiders and 3D.Game Heroes are the only recent Zelda clones, though there are many older ones. My roomy and I have been trying to find a cheap copy for awhile now, since you can build your own character to play as (you can play as a shark or a tank or anything you can create) I plan on building Link and playing another LttP style top down Zelda game. Should be awesome.

I'll admit that out of the three it's the closest to a Zelda game, but it's still a lot more linear than your traditional Zelda game, which made the difference for me. A traditional Zelda clone involves a large overworld with dungeons and bosses protecting certain goals throughout. Starfox does fullfill this to some extent; but calling it a zelda clone just doens't sit well with me =/ Can't offer a better reason than that. You could argue the opposite quite easily I'll admit.
