excelent, looks very old fashioned
Come on guys, it's not like this hasn't happened before.

its NOT lego! It's called dot art in japan (hence the name 3d dot game heroes) and pixel art in north america. There also seems to be a rumour floating around that Atlus and Ignition are fighting over the publishing rights to bring this to North America. I wonder if it's true. |
Yeah i'm a huge fan of pixel art. Though i do perfer the 2D variations.

That would be ripping zelda off.
It's a ripoff unless you get premission from the orignal source.
I'm guessing the Zelda guys didn't give permission for a Sony only game.

Ah, who cares if it is a Zelda rip-off?
It wasn't like Nintendo was going to give us NES/SNES style Zelda with 3D pixelated sprites. I doubt they ever would have given that to us.
Just be appreciative that From Software actually is gifting us with something so incredibly awesome.
I really hope this gets an Asian release with English subs. I don't want to wait till mid-late 2010 to possibly grab this game, I want it ASAP!
iPhone = Great gaming device. Don't agree? Who cares, because you're wrong.
Currently playing:
Final Fantasy VI (iOS), Final Fantasy: Record Keeper (iOS) & Dragon Quest V (iOS)

Oh I think it's awesome.... but i'm just calling a spade a spade.
There have been a lot of awesome ripoffs.
For example Thanos the guy in my Avatar was originally a ripoff of darkseid and then he evolved into something way more kickass.

more like a tribute to the 8bit era than a rip off IMO.
its parodying old games obviously not ripping them off.

No... it's directly copying. Parody would require poking fun at the old 8-bit way.
A tribute would be called an Homage.
And an homage is still a ripoff without the creators consent.
Also to even qualify as an homage the from software guys would have to admit they were copying zelda.
