Customer Ratings & Reviews

A nostalgic trip for people that grew up on 8bit and 16bit games. I is clearly a Zelda clone, but it is a good zelda close. For the price it is a good way to get an old school fix. A tad too easy, but trying to get everything if you are a completionist can be both fun and occasionally a challenge.

Building anticipation for games, watching trailers and commercials prior to release, one usually has a certain expectation for the final product. I was pleasantly surprised by 3D Dot Game Heroes. While it plays like an old school 16 bit game, the 3d blocks make for a pretty environment. Many features make this a hit in my book. Just a few examples include, a character editor/animator, collectible and upgradable swords (for completionists out there), and the ability to change characters every time you start your saved game. The price is right on this game, and worth having in everyone's PS3 library. Pros Classic game feel Collectible and upgradeable weapons Multiple camera angles Humor and reference to some of our favorite games of the past Cons Dungeons can be completed w/o obtaining key items to progress the games story. Analog stick play stinks, revert to the D pad.

I cant even begin to express how great this game is! 3D Dot Game Heroes is a tribute to The Legend of Zelda & Link to the past on the NES & SNES. From the character control, to the dungeons, maps, music and items, this game will take you back in time. At only $39.99 new its a great price as well. If you liked Zelda, and link to the past for SNES, and miss classic RPGs with a little added pizazz, this game is for you!

I was curious about this game when i first heard about it, and finding that it wasnt $60 but only $40 i couldnt pass it up. so far from what i played it reminds me alot of the old zelda game on nes. you have items similar to zelda like the boomerang, apples represent your health (instead of hearts) and some of the enemies are very similar in appearance and behavior. The game however is not a copy or a remake, it pays homage to games like zelda, final fantasy and other rpg games, some are even modern (reference to demons souls). the hero has a sword that has the ability to be upgraded in length, width, strength and other things such as granting spin abilities. the sword can actually be upgraded to take up most of the screen, however it only does so if you are at full health. the game has caves/temples with puzzles suck as having to move blocks to get to other areas, having to hit switches with boomerangs and other things that will bring up fond memories of previous games. if you ask me this is what the ps3 needed, an exclusive rpg game that brings back fond memories of childhood that was done with great care and isnt just some knock off or something that felt rushed or poorly executed. the game is excellent and worth the money, it would even be worth the common $60 price tag, the price break is just a bonus. as of right now there is no dlc nor does the box mention dlc in the future at all. the bottom line is the game is great and will definatly give you a great amount of length for the price that is fun an enjoyable. definatly worth purchasing.

Pretty good game, I find myself taking out modern warfare 2 just so that I can play Dot Heroes, hahha always have it in mind,

Awesome game!!! Flashbacks to when I was a kid. Only bad thing is some of the bosses a really tough.

Um...Best Buy. This is not the name of the game. The name is 3d Dot Game Heroes. Also your canadian site has it correct. I'd like to pre-order but apparently can't because I don't trust a pre-order on a game where the name is completely wrong (as well as the publisher). Please correct your listing ASAP!
