This game was like these goffy ads with level 1 crook to level 100 mafia boss

Honestly the biggest offence of this game isn't even the awful level design or boring combat or anything like that. The biggest offence is that they dared to make a freaking king kong game and then make him like 2 meters tall and not like 200!

"We are awoken by a purely silent noise" 😂😂Somehow you turned this mess of a game into a funny experience

The Kong looks like they're made out of clay in this game, which would have been cool if it was a purposeful design choice and not a terrible model.

I can't believe that we were blessed with 2 true GOTY contenders this year.  Who'd have thought Gollum would get this level of completion, it is truly incredible!
On a serious note, another top quality video!

21:32 This feels like an elaborate shitpost, Kong getting a T-Rex in a chokehold and snapping her neck like he’s doing a takedown in a stealth game

ngl, you're the first person I've seen to actually fight the crab boss as intended. Usually they realize you can just stand on the higher areas on the sides and the boss can't get to you. Then you just chuck rocks at it until it dies.

5:35 Adding the Squidward walking sound effects is unironically an improvement to this game

The only good thing this game did is how they brought back Gaw (a very obscure villain that appeared in a Kong novel)

One big flaw with this game that I don't see many people talking about [he said in a video where the top comment talks about it] is that if I'm playing as Kong, I want to feel like I'm controlling a massive behemoth, not an average sized silverback gorilla. I want to swing around trees that are smaller than I am, maybe be able to uproot one and use it like a club. I want one my few advantages over a boss to be my massive size. I want to be the biggest goddamn thing in the jungle.

They definitely nailed the bosses you would expect to fight in a Skull Island game:
• Worm
• Crab
• Three reskinned early game enemies
• Spider
• One, large version of the reskinned early game enemy

Truly one of the boss line-ups of all time.

Honestly, the game doesn't look awful as a proof of concept with placeholder graphics. But this does look like the team literally JUST made the basics and some executive came in and said "It's playable? Good enough!"

This game is makes king kong on PS2 look like a modern AAA game lol

Respect to the devs for implementing such a heartfelt story. 😂

Dude, the biggest congratulations on getting this horrible game completed! Another banger of a video, treat yourself with a good game for the next upload haha. 🏆

I swear the game punished you for glitching your way through the collectibles. 😅

No player icon on the map is astoundingly bad. Wow.

I think one of the things that sucks the most is that there is everything present for a decent Kong game. I mean they have combat tactics, finishing grapples, collectables, upgrade trees, and a somewhat "open world", but it's all bare bones and barely functional with only the most basic implementation.

Did not expect the trophies for this to work in the first place for you. Great work!

You know, a coming of age revenge story about a being who is the last of his kind sounds pretty boss. Maybe if the developers had more time (and money), they could've done justice to it.

Reminds me of 1999 PS1 demo games that came free with gaming magazines.

Im assuming there are no developer credits roll at the end.

Imagine being the guy that built this and going to a job interview.

King Kong 2005 released on launch for the 360 and gave a version for previous gen too. It was the perfect tie-in for the movie and came out in a timely manner. The achievements were super easy. Gameplay was a blast, especially playing as Jack ironically, and felt like an expansion of the movie. I am upset it has become so expensive out of nowhere because it was just so phenomenal and I miss it. This game in stark contrast came out 6 years after its movie. Looks nothing like it. Possibly one of the worst games ever made. What the hell happened?
