Wild Earth: African Safari continues to keep us entertained for totally unintentional reasons. At first it was some of the absolutely loopy minigames, but now it's this terrible advert for the game, which depicts Mum and the kids getting their safari on, and falls in the "so-bad-it's-kinda-good" category. Frankly, we can smell the cheese from here.
Fortunately (and more importantly), the game itself continues to show promise. Some of the animation on display here is very decent, and the multiplayer sections, where one player steers the jeep or helicopter and the others snap the wildlife, actually look pretty exciting. There's even a brief glimpse of Whac-A-Meerkat!

It actually remembers me of Endless Ocean. Only much, much worse. Why do they jump back when the lion roars? That's just pointless >_> lol

It would have been better for the screen to turn red with bloody claw marks. Blood dripping down the screen to reveal the words: Before you DIE!

Apparently all one has to do to avoid getting eaten by a lion is snap a picture of it...
Or maybe they just don't classify this as a "sim"- yes you got the picture, but you also DIE.
Looks lame. Also, please raise your hand if you've dressed accordingly when playing a game. Full sized Samus suit anyone?

This looks more promising than Sony's Afrika.
