Tokyo Jungle Review

[edgecult]

Question. Do you get to train your little pomeranian into merciless stalker of post-apocalyptic concrete jungle .... wearing kitty paws ? Because if you do...GOTY

Sorta.. you become the family of post apocalyptic kitty paw wearing pomeranian merciless stalkers... at least till the years go by and slowly everything lower than you on the food chain gets replaced with things bigger than you in the city. (sadly as I found out thanks to a freak event dropping prehistoric dino's in a sector I needed to cut though at year 15 or so I think your pomeranian no matter how vicious the little things become.. are still food to bigger nastier things when ambushed by a squad of 6 in the middle of a smoggy thunderstorm.)

Good review... although I was expecting the video to be two minutes of Susan going:

"SQUEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!"

Funniest moment doing this review: I was capturing the footage to use in the review, which we do here in the office. I was playing as the pig, and ran smack into a beagle almost immediately. Ok, fine, I can evade a beagle, but then while running from the beagle I ran right into a herd of cats and yelled "AAAAH! Cats!" as I frantically tried to get away.

Justin leans over his desk and says, "...did you just say 'aaaah, cats?'"

That's kind of how this game goes. The absurd becomes super serious very quickly.

Tokyo Jungle Review

Ridiculous and mighty.

I recall earlier this year you were quite excited for this game, did you have to fight off anyone to review it? Oh, and did it meet your expectations or surpass them?

I think this one was just a bit too weird for my fellow reviewers to want to attempt. And while I figured I'd find it endearingly odd, I didn't expect the actual gameplay to be as rock solid as it was. Quite surprising, really.

Aww, I was hoping for a story along the line of Greg and Mike battling each other yelling, "I want to be the Pomeranian!" while you sneaked through the carnage and triumphantly claimed the controller.

I wish this would come out on the pc, it looks damn interesting but I have no intention of getting a ps3.

I'm going to echo this.
My friend got it on his PS3 and I love the idea behind it, but I only have a 360 and a PC, and my budget doesn't allow for me to buy a PS3 just for this game.

Good review... although I was expecting the video to be two minutes of Susan going:

I'm a little disappointed that she didn't.

You ran from kitties, rather than give them scritches??

I'll be dead honest, this is my pick for game of the year right now. This has been the only thing ive touched all week. Even my friend who hates rougelikes, game extremely punishing games, loved it. We sat there and just burned the day away getting destroyed by raptors.

Theres a lot of content to unlock, and the story is pretty decent. I feel its like minecraft. Something you can just sit down and play. Its been along time since ive felt this much accomplishment from a game (got to 100+ years in game So many things wanted me dead!), and unlocking your favorite animals just keeps you going. The co-op has a bit of a hiccup, where you both share the same screen, but it is LOCKED 100% on player number one. Its not the most terrible thing ever, but it could use a bit of reworking. It didnt stop me and my bro from stomping around the city as a Lycaon and a Wolf, mauling everything in our path.

The game has a few problem to it, but its nothing that hinders the amount of enjoyment you can get from it. And for only 15$, this is one of the best titles out there for its price. 9/10 stars for me! Simplistic, bug free (about 20 hours and not a single glitch of any kind), and above all, addictive. Would recommend to anyone with a PS3.

Got it, this game is so much fun, and so absurd. I was having a pretty easy time as a Pom until I went into the sewer, go allllll the way to the end just to hit a wall and be surrounded by Panthers. Yea, Panthers, against a small pack of Pomeranian's... it was quick and brutal

Great review. It is nice to see your name in the reference as I can count on something worth reading and listening too.

First off, I am so glad that you reviewed this Susan. You got me hyped up for it, though got me disappointed when it was a PS exclusive.

Decent review, though it sounds more honest in the video then the written review. This is what you think, verses here is all the reasons why someone wants to play this game.

Finally, a reason to buy a PS3

Wonder if this is out on the European PSN as well. Because I really want to try this out!

Yeah it is, been out since last week and it's a lot of fun.

A quick reasearch says as much, yeah. Silly me. Yeah, I gotta get on this.

 

[BENZOOKA]

This game seems excellent.

I would get it if it were on PC.

And I'm certainly not alone with that thought.

 

[Piorn]

I didn't have this game on my radar at all, and just accidentally stumbled upon this review.
All I have to say is: THANK YOU!

 

[robotam]

Downloaded it after reading this review. It is just so fun, I can't wait until my sister finishes whatever dvd she's watching and I get to play more. Great review

 

[deathninja]

It's worth it just for being able to dress a cow in a fuku.

Oh, and samurai Tosa/Beagle clan wars. Fucking genius.
