I got the last copy at the GS near my office this evening. The guy said that people have been "tearin' that game up all day long" when I asked for it.

Exactly. :D I was shocked GS (a) had it (b) didn't gut it. :lol

I turned the grid off. Unsure if i liked the game with the grid or not. will play some more with it off.

Do you mean the little overhead map on the upper-right corner? I love that. It reminds me of those old Nintendo Power maps of 8-bit games taken directly from the pixel source.

I see they decided to keep the annoyance that is the desert dungeon from that time period :/

Anyway, beat 3 dungeons. I'm guessing there's gotta be another part after you find all the orbs or this game would be pretty short.

Game's main stuff isn't too long, but it has a lot of side content (at least from what I've heard).

OMFG I had to stop playing and finish my project portfolio but I'm done with this awful semester. This education shit is starting to eat into my gaming time. :D
Ready to go.

Someone with some skill needs to fabricate a Ness character. I think I have just enough skill to make a pacman.

It's a clone of tons of old games. Zelda gets all the talk but the game looks exactly like 3D dragon quest 1 and you use tents and sleeping bag to heal and ave line in FF so it's all over the place. It does play like A link to the past, but it's not a Zelda clone.

Also can you dash without holding your sword out? I keep running into things.

has anyone installed the game? does it make loading between areas any faster?
Click to expand...

Yes. They added the install option in the US version simply because every time you walked across the screen in the original Japanese version you would get loading for 5-10 secs with a different loading screen of classic characters in 3d do game heroes fashion. There is no loading now when you install it. You can still see those screens in the gallery, so not installing it would be a dumb thing to do.

I've been fighting the first boss over and over again trying to beat him without getting hit. You can rack up tons of money this way just so you know.

edit: holy shit there is a trophy for
beating the game without dying

I think you just get more money, unless he gave me 400+ the first time I beat him

Just beat the fourth temple.

It's getting a bit better thanks in part to this new sword I got. Also bought a silver ring that boosts my DEF. Still managed to get hardcore ruined by a blue dragon.

Oh and I threw some coins in a well and got a tent. Now I can rest anywhere on the overworld, regain all of my HP/MP, and even set a revival point. Unlimited uses too woot woot woot.

Anyone find out what the red key doors are for?
Click to expand...

I'd like to know this also. I assume you're referring to the red locked doors in the temples.

They're the only one's I can't find keys for in the temples.

This game is so great!!! I just had to support Atlus/From after owning Demon's Souls. :D

Did you guys find the
"From Cave"
in the game with all of the
Demon's Souls
references in it?? :lol :lol

I created my own Link character, however the one posted above is better than mine...thinking about switching now. :/

I've never even heard of this game before today.

This looks somewhat interesting, and $40? Hm.. a definite maybe. We'll see what my paycheck says this week.

I'm about halfway through the first dungeon -- AWESOME GAME. Anyone that's ever enjoyed a Zelda game and owns a PS3 needs to own this. Also, $36 is an amazing deal for it.

I love the shark. It's pretty hilarious having everyone talk to a giant fin sticking out of the ground.

I tried my hand at making my own dude, but I am not cut out for anything art related.
