Hey, guys! As if you haven’t seen enough of my face on our YouTube channel as of late, here’s yet another one in an effort to shamelessly promote a new video series I’m doing over on my channel. It’s called Games Like Zelda, and I’m pretty sure you can figure out what the series is…

When you think “Zelda clone” the usual suspects come to mind. . . Okami, 3D Dot Game Heroes, and the Neutopia games (if you’re in the know). So it’s no surprise that Everyview’s “Top Five Legend of Zelda Clones” list mentions all three. What is surprising is that they missed the most obvious (at least…
3D Dot Game Heroes: More Zelda than Zelda? An Article by The Missing Link Living in this thing called “real life” can be somewhat disconcerting sometimes.
