When looking at new games to make sure you get value for money, it can be useful to get an outside opinion but not everyone has the same taste. A group of reviews balanced against each other can be much more useful for making a decision than a single review without context from the reviewer. As a result, we’ve been running a series of reviews for games for the Xbox, Wii and PS3 to help you better know the pros and cons of the new releases.
Wukung has already rated a number of games this year, including Darksiders, Bayonetta, Tatsunoko vs. Capcom, Mass Effect 2, Dante’s Inferno, BioShock 2, Ace Attorney Investigations: Miles Edgeworth, Heavy Rain and Yakuza 3, Bad Company 2, Half Minute Hero, BlazBlue, Red Steel 2 as well as Disgaea 2, FFXIII, Just Cause 2, Splinter Cell Conviction, Nier, Super Street Fighter IV and Iron Man 2! Here is his latest set of reviews, exclusively available on MMORPG-Info.

3D Dot Game Heroes (PS3)
Retro action adventure in the style of the classic 2D Zelda games, with a fun twist on the 2D graphics. While 3D Dot Game Heroes does borrow heavily from the original Zelda, the gameplay brings just enough of its own ideas to feel functional as both a homage and its own unique entity. Its retro gameplay is less sophisticated and accessible than even early Zelda games in some ways. I had a lingering feeling I would have enjoyed actually revisiting Zelda: Link to the Past more but this loving homage still has its moments and the character editor adds a fair bit of entertainment value.
