Any of you guys play through this? What an awesome game.

It\'s the most movie-like game I\'ve ever played, but in a good way. 95% of the movies sequences are integrated in while you play. They happen around you. If you don\'t look, you\'ll miss the cool effect, and that\'s ok.

Like the one scene with the T-Rex that comes chomping through a bridge your men are on and then heads your way... It\'s a sight to behold, but you kinda want to be running away from it instead of watching.

The whole experience is intense because it doesn\'t take much besides one or two clamps from a dinosaurs jaws to put you down. So you have to be quick, always aware, and all that.

The neatest thing is that they animate Kong\'s face just slightly enough that you can feel his emotions and by the end of the movie (game) you feel that attachment to the characters.

Cool game.

And rumor has it I can kick around replaying boards to rack up some points and unlock an alternate ending.

Might be neat to see what they had in mind.

The scope is huge. Like, the game is only average length, but some environments and monsters are just enormous, especially from Jack\'s point of view.  There\'s a herd of Brontosaurus in one level and you can\'t fit the whole dinosaur in the screen it\'s so big. The effect is even cooler if you\'re watching on a big screen tv.

Definitely a cool game.

The Brontosaurus aren\'t meat eaters so just be careful that they don\'t step on you. But when you see one that has been brought down... Well, be afraid of whatever the hell did that - cuz he\'s coming back for more.

If you finish the game with everything unlocked, I think you are supposed to get the bonus ending.  I haven\'t seen an official site post details yet on that though.

I like the sounds of the cutscenes, melding them into the game sounds cool.

I have the game but not really played it much yet, need to delete some space from my memory card so I can save it.
