    My favorite feature in the game is the button dedicated to Jack telling you how much ammo he has left. He's so determined to tell you how many magazines he has that he interrupts his own dialogue and rudely talks over other characters. Even in death, he's really excited to tell you he has "FIVE MAGAZINES ON BACKUP."

      One of my favourite missions is where you're going down a river and two v rexes are following. Then at the end you're about to get eaten when kong shows up and I just kept spamming the ammo check prompt while the music faded out lol.

      It amused me to think of it as a madness mantra; that no matter how much danger & stress Jack was subjected to, he would keep telling himself he was going to get through this, because "It's ok, I've got enough magazines. It's ok, I've got enough magazines. It's ok, I've got enough magazines..."

    Glad I was able to help with this! Also, for anybody who enjoyed the game or movie, I HIGHLY recommend checking of the "The World of Kong: A Natural History of Skull Island" It's an absolutely gorgous book of concept art of all the wildlife in both the film and the game set up as an ecological guide, going into insane detail on the ecosystems on the island. One of the coolest books I own.

      It was a dream of mine to have it years ago, but most of the licensed stuff from the movie never came to Brazil. I remember spending hours translating whatever I could find from the book over the internet. I think that was one of the things that made me an English student (now teacher). Both the movie and the game have a special place in my heart. Shame I can no longer play it.

    King Kong is literally one of my favorite games ever. I have so many good memories of this game, and yes quite a bit of nostalgia. Rage is such a cool ass mechanic, and I was so into it as a kid, and the game was legitimately scary at times, especially when all your companions are split off and you're all alone. And I super agree with how cool the game changing based on how you play. Like in the Sacrifice level, you have to fight a velociraptor. Naturally you hide and throw spears at him from a distance your first time, this the first time you meet a dinosaur and therefore pretty startling. However, if you actually take charge and kill this raptor as soon as he shows up through use of a fire lantern, a second velociraptor shows up, and when you kill that enemy three smaller wolflike enemies that you normally don't find until much later in the game. I'd say that while the game as a whole doesn't have much replay value, a lot of the levels definitely do!

  • @Luke-xi2pq

    One of the most interesting things is that Cody Barlog, the lead director of the 2018 God of War reboot, which is one of the most acclaimed games of all time (specifically for it's story), stated that this game, although filled with plenty of flaws, is what inspired him on how a narrative could be implemented into a game. I find it fascinating how much a movie licensed game influenced so many, even the director of the game that many consider the 2018 game of the year alongside the likes of Red Dead Redemption 2 and Spiderman for PS4.

    Honestly, once you get good at this game, you can really start to slaughter almost anything short of the invincible V-Rexes as Jack with nothing but spears and the occasional bullet or shell. Jack, with a little experience, may as well be an ancestor of the Doom Slayer.
    The game is genuinely scary at times, too. The Brontosaurus level is one of the earliest examples given you're entirely alone and it's pretty easy for the larger raptors (which are pretty much guaranteed to kill you in two hits and can drag you around) to sneak up on you amidst the pounding of the feet of the big guys above. You don't have enough ammo to just spray the things and there's no way in hell you're gonna outrun them, so it always turns into a rush between the rest points with a set of spears and fire.
    Jack's ammo counting speech is pretty funny sometimes. Literally, he'll rudely interrupt other's dialogue and cut off his own dialogue just to count his ammo. I remember laughing once during that mini level where Kong tosses you off a giant log and Jack was just reassuring to himself "It's OK, I've got enough magazines" as he falls to what he can only assume is his imminent death.

    I remember as a kid being VERY scared to played this game. The feeling of isolation and hopelessness was something I remember most from this game. The story was... meh, and the graphics are lackluster. But yet I remember being terrified to play this game, especially during the levels where the Raptors attack you from the tall grass. I wasn't really good at games just yet, so clearing levels while also being TERRIFIED of the creatures in them made for an immersive and different experience I didn't really start to love until my teenage years.

    This and Spiderman 2 are the best games based on movies, to this day. The "The Lord Of The Rings" games are good. But the King Kong game is something else. I will never forget the joys and frustration that came with the V-Rex levels. When playing as Jack all you could do is stop the beasts. When playing as Kong it's payback time.

You seem to always get things right, i played king kong long ago and loved it, and you just sayd why i loved it, without me even knowing. I also adored the Max Payne videos, hope you make something on Half Life one day. Greetings from Brasil!

    I remember playing King Kong on my original XBOX when I was just a youngin. I remember being terrified of every V-Rex encounter while playing as Jack. The sound design alongside their imposing, relentless demeanor was hands down the most memorable moments in gaming for me. King Kong, despite its flaws, is easily my favorite XBOX game.

      Ubisoft has had an enormous chip on their shoulder regarding PC as a platform, they used to elude to PC gamers being thieves, apparently their games have (or had) a 93/95% piracy rate.
      This is just one anecdote of many that highlight their attitude towards the platform. Their ports have also tended to suck.
