Because we really need more 3D Dot Game Heroes Screens  photo

This morning I railed against those fools who believe that 3D Dot Game Heroes is merely a Legend of Zelda rip-off, and this afternoon I bring you a freshly baked batch of delicious new screenshots. Included in the gallery are big swords, scorpions, spooky castles and the most adorable world map you're ever likely to see in an action RPG.

This is looking like it'll be an absolutely wonderful PS3 exclusive and I really cannot wait for news on a Western release. This thing cannot look so awesome and simply not come to the US. I shan't allow it, and I hereby claim that I will burn Japan to the ground if this game does not leave Eastern lands. 

Somebody make this game happen. Thanks.

Where are these people who seem to think an homage/parody is considered a ripoff? I've never seen them.

Hopefully the fanboys won't spoil this for everyone. But this comment will probably inspire some trolling, so sorry.

The picture of the map w/ a path is reminding me of the Lost Woods, I always got turned around in that forest when I was a kid :D

This is going to be a fantastic game!!!

I'll get right on it, It will be a good time to test the big box o;bluraygun.

I love the part with the rolling rocks, totally reminded me of death mountain from A Link to the Past and made me smile. Have to buy a PS3 now. RPG's are getting a ton of parody's recently, wonder if that means the genre is stagnating too much.

First Zelda and now Shadow of the Collossus? Clearly that little blue one is that one small collossus dog thing.

Shameless rip-off.

I doubt it will beat Okami as the best Zelda ever but it looks fucking good.

Wow, it is a rip off.

I don't even see how the game is funny or where the humor kicks in.

Halo was the worst Zelda, They made Links Tunic into armor, made navi some stupid hologram, completely misinterpreted what "Flood" meant, and no Ganon as final boss just some stupid evil superball.

Here is folks, the one guy completely convinced of the ripoffness! This is the source of much fervor folks: h5e-etc!

I hear ya h5, I don't see it either. Probably gets funnier when you translate it...

I haver to agree with Super Drybones AND Tubatic that Super Madden:Halo Edition was the worst Zelda, period. If you disagree you are a retarded sloth beast

@ Magnalon- Every tip we get about this game says something like "3D Dot Heroes rips-off Zelda" or "Shameless theft: 3D Dot Heroes robs LoZ" or something to that effect.

I think those are the people that Jim's got a beef with, not your average Dtoid reader.

Super Madden:Halo Edition was the best LoZ ever!!! Why is everyone hating on it? Also getting a PS3 and I demand this game.

If you're going to "rip-off" a game, it might as well be one of the greatest. All I can say is that I can't WAIT to get my grubby little hands on this.

@Jim:
BIAS!!!

Anyway...this game has amazing lighting and shadows. I can't get over how pretty they look. That said, I don't like the water.

Also, what would happen if they made a Lego 3D Dot Game Heroes? And what if someone made the overworld map out of Legos. That person would win life.
