This game needs 2 things:

1. Coyote
2. Roadrunner

this thread brilliantly shows a big problem of the gaming market - it's all about mainstream games and mainstream-gamers are constantly attacking games which don't even try to cater to them (maybe because they fear to not get enough attention?) - quite a sad sight how the nichè-titles are being treated

the producers seem to think there are enough people out there who want an experience like this (although I'm not sure about that) and I applaud them for their courage to make a game which isn't about constant action and killing everything that moves - now I only hope, that they managed to make it a fun game to those who are interested in being a cameraman in africa

uh this looks NOTHING like it did 6 months ago. well what's new?

2008-08-28 18:00:01

WOW! Good looking ass that is.

2008-08-28 18:21:57

is this a boredom simulation? or a software alternative to sedatives? i really dont get the point of this thing :/
the gfx are "nice", but nothing the last gen couldn`t have achieved...
far from spectacular.

God when will starfox14now stop posting.

Anyway, American gamers like senseless killing and it show here in this thread. I agree with Lafiel.

@ starfox )

No, I neither have a Wii nor a DS, I played Dance Dance Revolution.

funny how often you post in a thread to a game which doesn't interest you at all btw

2008-08-28 20:20:05

funny, isn't it ... you being my appeal detector, that is. :)

Will I like The Last Guy? I dunno, tell me... the fact I have a million NGeographic tapes and love nature/africa game... doesn't seem to do much to me when the game is more *snore* that most of "wait... wait for that cheetaa atack" moments of those shows.
tell me, mr. detector.

To all you Afrika lovers:
1. Just because something is different doesn´t mean it´s good. In most cases, it actually is not.
2. By looking at those videos do you honestly believe that the exciting job of being a cameraman in the African wilderness is captured very well here? It would have to be the most boring job in the world according to this game? Shouldn´t it be a real adventure instead?

In Japan, there are even "train-driver-simulation-games" on the market,
where you literally have to accelarate, WAIT, stop at the stations, WAIT, accelarate.... over and over again.

And they sell well.

So while you fall asleep watching this, some japanese gamers probably are struggeling not lose consciounsness due to adrenaline-shocks.

Different cultures I guess....

It's impossible to make a sim like this one a true-to-life experience because when a hippo runs at you in the game, there's no adrenaline running through your body like while you're sitting there in you room. Also, catching a cheetah on the hunt is way harder to be there for. You have to wait a long ass time and follow the cheetah around forever. This game would have you believe that in real life, a cheetah wouldn't mind a big noisy vehicle driving only feet away while it's trying to catch an antelope.

It's like a fishing game... but with animals, and photographs.

The second vid was awesome with the cheetah chase, but why make those amazing animations etc, when you ruin it all by having tiny playfield "levels", and on top of that, when you get to the border you get a "Yes, No" question about exiting.....
Way to ruin the immersion.

2008-09-06 11:47:13

omg, most of you dont get it. this isnt actually a game for normal gamer, its a game for women or girls or just to relax..
