Best movie based game ever - By: Frederick Graham, 08 Sep 2008 
ALL GAMES suffer from repetition - Half life, GTA, Tomb Raider, Fable, Knights of the old republic - all the best games of our time. Beautyfull graphics, gameplay, Increadable AI (very reliable teammates) & a story that stays true to the film. The best movie-based film ever made, a god amongst insects.
action,tension & adventure-all you could ask for! - By: jlh, 19 Sep 2007 
i really enjoyed this game from start to end.you really feel as though you are on skull island-the game has a real movie style feel to it.the monster scenes are excellent.being chased by a hungry t-rex is terrifying,apart for when you get to play as kong-which is quite satisfying-as you get to smash up & destroy everthingin sight.for an adventure game this has everything-action,tension,excitement & a whole load of nasty,hungry monsters!
Fantastic Game! - By: Deano's, 12 May 2007 
This game gets a well-deserved 5 stars because it's a brilliant almost-perfect truly exciting & fun game to play.
This game is really fun & exciting to play. You start off playing as Jack when you first find yourself on Skull Island with the rest of the characters from the movie. Soon things became really exciting when you enter the Island & Ann is captured by Kong & your mission to rescue her begins.
From beginning to end you are amazed & really drawn into this amazing world that they have created full of beasts & creatures & the amazing Kong. Around every corner there's a surprise & a new task or problem to get yourself out of. Each level is individual with amazing scenery & realism.
This game should be what Jurassic Park games should have been like because dinosaurs play a huge rolein the game & this really is The Lost World. Raptors & Brontosaurs make an appearance but the real demons are the V-Rex's which are extremely difficult to fight & impossoble to kill. That's why you have to play as Kong on certain levels to fight them.
Playing as Kong is really fun, he has alot of strength & impact during gameplay & it's really fun to swing from branches & climb walls & smash down walls. His main intention is to protect Ann & on some levels they work together to escape whatever monster is awaiting them. The interaction between them is fantastic & you can pick her up & protect her. Fighting V-Rex's is challenging & one of the best features & you get to hit them, crush them, break their jaws & basically pulp them!
Some levels are played as Jack & others Kong but these depend on how far into the story you are so you don't just play as Jack for the first half of the game then Kong the second part, they alternate depending on where you are which is good because if you're starting to get a bit tired of running around as Jack then a Kong level will be just around the corner. Playing as Kong is fun but playing as Jack means more solving how to get through the island & interacting with the other characters so Jack is most of the game & probably the best part.
The game follows the stroy of the film & you are mainly alone at the beginning & get seperated from the other characters until you meet up again near the end. The other characters will actually come along with you, give you tips sometimes, & watch your back while fighting difficult enemies & you will have to help them too.
Some features include creating/putting out fire, guns/spears, hiding, water/land, swimming, rafting, problem solving. Enemies include the dinosaurs mentioned above, & others include huge bat-like creatures, massive insects, giant snakes, water creatures & the tribe of people on the island. The scenery is stunning & you get to experience this really amazing & dangerous world through every minute of the game which is full of dangers & unusual things.
This game is an all-round fun, exciting, frightening & beatiful to look at masterpiece & I reccomend anyone into these kind of explore & discover & fight type of games to buy it or rent it, you'll not be dissapointed!
Peter Jackson's King Kong: The Official Game of the Movie - By: S. Negandhi, 16 Feb 2007 
This game is almost perfect. The grapics are briliant & the gameplay is briliant.
You can play as Jack Driscoll or Kong. There are a lot more Jack missions than Kong missions, but Jack missons are more fun.
The only problem with the game is that when your character loses health, the screen turns red, so you can't see very well.
The movie is briliant too.
fantastic - By: sir gamer, 07 Dec 2006 
When you start playing this game it is a storm. It loads up really quickly, which is good if you like to start playong strait away. Also the monsters are donein especially good graplic's. But if you run out of bullets it is really hard to kill them with spears. It doesn't really have a very good ending though. It just cuts off.
