This Looks TERRIBLE... Monster Fans Deserve BETTER! (NEWS)

[@paulryan3056]

The story in this game is based on Joe DeVito and Brad Strickland's graphic novel "King Kong of Skull Island" which acts as an official sequel/prequel to Merian C. Coopers original story. Its a great read full of epic storytelling and new lore. The game got promoted on DeVito's social media platforms, and as much as I loved seeing the villan Gaw being utilized, the graphics and game play don't do anything for me. Instead, I'm looking VERY much forward to this story being told in the (hopefully still in development) live-action tv series coming to Disney+ at some point. That series was announced almost a year ago, in August 2022, but we've heard NOTHING about it since, so I'm very worried about it. Hopefully some news will land online regarding its status soon.

As a soon as I saw Gaw, I knew what this was about. Gaw is the huge red saurian dinosaur in the trailer she's the alpha pack leader of the Deathrunners there's even a two headed Deathrunner. Gaw was from the 2005 comic Kong: King of Skull Island.

Actually glad somebody pointed this out. This is pretty much might be the gollum game for monster fans. Like it looks fun in some areas but overall it looks bland.

I wouldn't mind you revisiting the 2005 King Kong game. I also have a lot of nostalgia for it. The game play as Jack as an FPS without a HUD to increase the immersion was unique and it was cool to see creatures in the game that didn't make it to the final cut of the film.

I think you should do Gaw and Deathrunner lore video. Because This theropod will make V. Rex and Indominus Rex looked tame in comparison. Deathrunner is a species of semi-sentient dromaeosaurid that smart enough to use tool and fire as a weapon. Gaw is a giant Deathrunner that responsible for the death of Kong parent in 1933 canon.

[@eldritchmorgasm4018]

That old game was one of those which realy squeezed every bit of PS2 potential out of it, and it showes. The new game, though not bad, might be fun, but from a technical perspective they probably went the "HOW GENERIC IS THIS SUPPOSED TO BE? YES!" way.

[@L0GANTP]

This game reminds me of a game for the GameCube called "The Incredible Hulk Ultimate Destruction", to the point that its almost like a re-skin of that game just Kong version.

This video game may not have top-of-the-line graphics, but, especially given that the game is cel-shaded, the graphics aren't bad persay(if this came out in 2007, people wouldn't be complaining about it) and considering that there haven't been that many 'King Kong' video games, that we haven't gotten any 'King Kong' console video games since 2005, and that the gameplay looks like it could be fun and makes it look like this could be the best 'King Kong' video game thus far(when it came to playing as Kong, the home console & PC vid game based on the 2005 film left a lot to be desired), I say that we should give it a chance. In addition, in that leaked image of Kong fighting a crustacean creature, the water looks pretty damn good! I also want to point out that 'Skull Island: Rise of Kong' is a tie-in to the 'King Kong' books by Joe DeVito. It's part of his 'King Kong of Skull Island' property.

[@TheCobraKing209]

While I agree that the game could look better, especially given the higher standards over the years, but it’s a good habit to remember that not all studios have the same budget as the more well known studios, open mindedness is a good way to not jump to conclusions.

To answer the question of what a "Boss Rush" game mode is, Boss Rush is a widely utilized form of gaming challenge in which the player must take on either bosses from the base game or entirely new ones in a row, with this usually lasting either infinitely or until every boss in the game has been fought. The main purpose of this game mode is to test the limits of the player in boss fighting combat, and to test just how far you can go. They usually come with difficulty settings to mirror the base game's difficulties aswell, unless the entire game shares one difficulty setting.

[@M567dk]

I am just glad that we are getting a Kong video game in this day and age. Even if it is made for kids,then at least it is more exposure to the Kong character. Plus, we get to play Kong. How often does that happen ?

[@doug_b330]

So much kong stuff.... we need more godzilla. Not just the upcoming series, but more more.

[@kraikein]

You know it is weird that we’re getting a game based on the Devito Kong books with no prior build up or announcement. A lot of media projects involving that version of Kong, aside from books or comics, have fallen through a lot. I honestly doubt that King Kong Disney+ show will come out, considering it’s a retooling of another cancelled Kong show announced around 2018 or so. It just seems really weird. Admittedly the graphics aren’t the best, but honestly I’ve seen far worse. I’m kind of interested to play it so I’m gonna give it a try

[@TylerRakstis]

Well we can least say this has dinosaurs like the 1933 and Peter Jackson remake, something that I wish the Monsterverse should put in soon. No, Rodan doesn't count since he's a pterosaur, while are close cousins to dinosaurs, but not dinosaurs themselves. And I see they have Gaw, from the Joe DeVito sequel/prequel Kong: King of Skull Island. For context: kzbin.info/www/bejne/e6mlnqh-f8SKfLM

I don't really take this game at the given moment as failure nor something that succeeds, i have a different view on it. We all know the story of the last major kaiju game from 2014 n all related to the big G. So while this game looks odd, i must say this may be the first time since years that some more famous character from monster or kaiju media got a proper game. Seeing this makes me wonder if something is yet to come. Now i know there's no collaboration or anything secrety, but considering that kaiju related things are on high hype recently, my opinion is the following: That either if this game fails or succeeds, the need for a kaiju game is beginning to rise and we may see a proper game in the coming year or years.

Less detail doesn't always mean bad. However, less detail doesn't always mean good either. It's an art that needs to be done correctly, and this Kong game sure doesn't do it very well. It looks like really bad claymation, and I personally HATE that trashy style. It's like the "CalArts" style modern cartoons seem to love, with excessive emphasis on round details. Think Steven Universe; that's the vibe I'm getting from this Kong game in terms of visuals, or lack thereof. As much as I like mindless and simple games, I'm hard passing on this purely because the trailer does not inspire interest. When you use an IP, you need to make it interesting for the fans. "These people like giant monkeys. Just make a game where a monkey attacks things and they'll slurp it up." is the mentality I'm seeing from the trailer. That's not a good move at all.
