  • Summary: Play as man or beast in Peter Jackson's King Kong: The Official Game of the Movie. You can be King Kong or Jack Driscoll as you follow a story based on the movie. Peter Jackson, the director of the 2005 movie, also took an active role in developing the game, which expands upon the movie's storyline, adding new creatures and locations. The game employs a cinematic style that makes the game more immersive and less like a traditional video game.… Expand

    The lighting effects are truly stunning. The sound is also top-notch. [Feb 2006, p.96]

    Minus the camera issues with Kong, whose gameplay is more of a "tension-breaker" than a titular role, Peter Jackson's King Kong on the current-gen consoles is definitely a must play!

    Not so much a game as an experience. Simply put, it's emotional, exciting, scary at times, and terribly fun.

    Comes off as an uneven experience, but one with plenty of invigorating moments that make the whole thing feel worth it.
