AFRIKA (working title) for the PS3

post #1 of 10
Thread Starter 
Looks like a "real world" version of Pokemon Snap, or a safari version of Endless Ocean (Forever Blue in Japan). Based on the vids, I really want to play this.

New Details on Afrika Finally Emerge
Afrika comes to Japan on August 28; North America soon after?


The latest issue of Famitsu magazine brings new details on the mysterious PlayStation 3 safari game Afrika. We now know that players can observe their surroundings through at least three camera angles -- third-person view, bird's eye view, and from the animal's point of view. There are also special fixed camera points where you can observe the natural habitats.

Players will be able to traverse the open fields either by foot or through vehicles such as jeeps. They can then take photographs or observe animals from long distances using binoculars. It is not yet known how players and animals will interact (if at all). Animals which have been observed will be kept in a database.

Famitsu also reveals that Afrika will hit Japanese store shelves on August 28. With that settled, hopefully a North American release date announcement will come soon.

Pretty graphics, but I'd rather watch an episode of Planet Earth. I tried Pokeymans Snap once and was not as impressed as so many other people.

Sorry, but that makes me want to, in the game, be able to:

A: Be a hunter and get to take trophies
B: Want to be a poacher and be able to hunt as well as fight against the game wardens
C: Be one of the animals and ram into the trucks and take out guys shooting at me

Simply marvellous! With this and Resident Evil 5 it's as if they're taking us back to the good old days of colonialism, what!

GTA: Grand Theft Afrika. I like how the tourist is clearly Caucasian. And that you can't see the driver.

I thought Afrika turned out to be vaporware/tech demo shenanigans. If it's real, where the hell has it been?

With a title like that, I expected to be playing Rommel chasing the Brits across the deserts. Talk about a disappointment.

No Bambaataa?
No thanks.

If you weren't sold on the previous clips, this trailer is more promising.
