This thread has been linked to the game 'Peter Jackson's King Kong: The Official Game of the Movie'.
I just played the demo (won it on the Ubisoft website) and it's actually quite cool. The graphics are very good and I dunno why but it feels very original and i've never played a game like it (even though there probably are games like it).
The demo isn't like those sh*tty ones you get with the PS2 magazines, it's well put together and allows you to play the game for a reasonable time.
It lets you play as one of the survivors running away from the T-Rex (this was my favorite bit), you have to run away from the T-Rex for a bit, then you have to shoot it while this other bloke is trying to find a hiding place. You eventually find a hiding place and then that part of the demo ends leaving you thinking whether the T-Rex found them or not.
The second part of the demo allows you to play as King Kong and you have to fight the T-Rex and put this woman in a safe place, you finally kill/hurt the T-Rex and then you have to jump a few obstacles until you get to some more T-Rexes who somehow have another girl hostage and I couldn't kill them so didn't get to see what happened at the end.
Sounds a bit confusing and weird but it was a very good demo and hopefully the full game will be good too.

I saw some heavily scripted gameplay footage, about as heavily scropted as the opening to the original Half-Life where all you can do is look around, watch and listen.
there are two types of games out there.
the normal video game that always is awesome,and king kong.
king kong SUCKS! its just like (awesome,awesome)halo, but the graphics are bad, the guy is hard to control,its so complicated,
and plus, you can finish the game in like..2hours. ITS SO SHORT!
