Andy Serkis makes this game.


The voice acting is superb. It seems he directed the voice work - from what the credits read. I really liked this game. The art direction, the story, the characters. The gameplay was a bit wonky. And the difficulty curve was very steep. But I thoroughly enjoyed the experience.

Well said. All in all a good game. My biggest gripe was the level design. Everything looked almost the same from one level to the next. Kill Zone 2 also suffered from this.

Really? I thought it was fun but basic. See a mech, hit it. See a mech sheilded, hold down to charge, then hit it. See a mech in the distance, shoot it. See something shining on the wall, climb it. repeat. lol

But I agree the voice acting was great here. the interplay between Trip and Monkey was fun to listen to while traveling.

It wasn't just the voice acting; Andy Serkis's physicality was fantastic. Every time I see Monkey running, climbing, or even making a face, it gives me the same good feeling I get from watching Dearth Vader crossing a room or seeing Indiana Jones in a fistfight.

Did you play it on the hardest level possible? It seemed that they once the tutorials were done, they gave you a few levels of this-isn't-too-bad then it want to damn, dead again!. Plus it made riding the cloud, climbing and anything timing-oriented much harder.
