Rockin' good news parishioners; get out your leopard skin pill box hats and dance to some Fela Kuti!!

How damn good is this fucker?

Different narrative paths, sense of reality out through the wahjoombas...man, it's on for young and old, and I swear I saw Idi Amin running for his life with a angry cheetah closing in.. Big Grin

Oh I ordered this one today and am waiting impatiently.

I've read up on it and understand that it is a wide open African environment, but does it let you hunt wild jungle animals? It would be great side missions to take on hunting expeditions or, on the other hand, to stop hunters from illegally killing endangered animals. Sort of a moral choice added into the game, I mean you are already in African wastelands, so why not?

Wouldn't it be exciting to be in an intense gunfight, and then all of a sudden a pack of tigers or elephants or rhinos come rushing in completely changing the dynamics of the fight?

"Some African wildlife are featured in the game world, but herbivores only; according to the developers, predators without careful control would have eaten all the herbivores and starved to death."

According to the wise old Wikipedia, this is why we won't see any carnivores...pity...

Still, it's a great game, at least what I have played so far.

P.S. It certainly would be exciting, blank, to see some tigers rush into battle with the player, since tigers only live in Asia... Wink any tiger that made his way to Africa would be one badddddd motherfucker.

Some Issues I have with this Game after a few days play:
I'm pretty disappointed with the AI in this game...sometimes hilariously bad ( n' ruins the stealth aspects)

I also found myself pumping most of a clip into bad-guys from quite close range before they bit the dust until I started upgrading my ammo. It felt unrealistic in a game that seems to aim for realism in every other aspect. (Jayzus... I'm Critical!)

Sandbox game fans will be probably crave more variety to the world and it's inhabitants.

A co-op option in this game would have been FRIGGIN' AMAZING! Nuff Said!
