Some may say there's only one Kong in videogames, and we all know who that is: Donkey Kong, Mario's first opponent. Games lore has it that Shigeru Miyamoto gave his ape villain his first name because he wanted to convey a sense of stubbornness. More whimsical observers have quipped that it was a spelling mistake, and those `crazy Japanese fellows' wanted him to be called Monkey Kong. Whatever the truth is, nobody has any doubt regarding the origins of the second name of the abducting ape. Now the original king-sized primate might have something to say, as the world braces itself for what must be the third or fourth remake of King Kong, directed this time by Brain Dead hobbit Peter Jackson. As we often remark, not many blockbuster films get away without being re-made as a videogame tie-in.
This product would be a great fit for gamers who want to dive into a thrilling adventure set in an iconic historical time and place.
