What They Say:
Check out these quotes from reviews & previews
"As a piece of gaming entertainment it's well worth buying regardless of what you might think of the movie - but assuming it's the action blockbuster it promises to be, it'll serve as the perfect accompaniment, fusing thrilling first-person combat with some of the most explosive hand to hand sequences you can imagine. If only all movie-based games were this entertaining."
"While the game doesnt revolutionize the genre, it does manage to create a solid movie-to-game adaptation that tips its hat to the movie in which it is based on, all the while managing to create its own experience that easily allows the game to stand alone from its Hollywood brother."
"It won't take you long to blow through King Kong, but its sometimes thrilling, often tense, and always entertaining adventure is absolutely worth checking out."
"Despite the shortness and a handful of scripting errors, Peter Jackson's King Kong is in many ways a huge step forward in level design and presentation, it's beautiful and, most importantly, it's fun."
"Peter Jacksons King Kong encompasses everything that made The Chronicles of Riddick: Escape from Butcher Bay such a great game. Simplicity is at the heart of King Kongs accessibility. The game progresses swiftly, non-playable characters pushing the plot forward every step of the way. Ill be surprised if its not looked back upon as a Classic example of how games based on films should be made -- with the films Director over-seeing the project."
