Yeah, nearly 20 years later its not much but lemme tell ya, it blew my mind! Tho i do remember playing the DS version as well because my buddy had it. It was the most game of all time.

The 360 version was a bit of a showcase for what the 360 could do and was the highlight Demo on all of the kiosks. Although, it's kind of funny how the previous generation version kind of looks better in retrospect, some of those early HD games really haven't aged too well.

In 99.9% of cases you can be sure that if it had a tie in game, it had a DS version back in the day... I remember the Thor tie in game for the first movie had one. On console/PC the gane was a god of war Clone I believe, but the ds Version was a 2d brawler or something... Anyway, the DS was so rediculously successful that basically every tie in had a DS version as well

10/10 best movie-based game, personally the only, for nostalgia. I remember how much i was invested in this game to replay this more than my fingers, especially my mom, considering this is a movie-based game and mom's a picky gamer (she'd play any retro PS2 alongside emulated NES & SNES games IN PS2, yet have weird range & pattern of games she'd play based on genres, but never star wars & movie tie-ins except for this one) I know this game like a very close relative. I know how to skip early swimming stage entirely by glitching onto the ledge where Ann's supposed to take route and obliterate tribesmen & trench monsters, i know what drygrass to burn and strategize for those annoying mini dinos & flying ones, and i still remember the anxiety, thrill, and panic of dealing with the V-rex like it was yesterday, either distracting it while the others are opening the gate or shooting burning spears at it, rafting while being chased like it's a theme park ride except your life depends on your spear/bone aim, and the last escape from it alone on the ground. And i prefer Hayes' death in here rather than in the movie

I actually got this game before seeing the movie and was a bit annoyed at things that happened differently in the film.

I remember this game was one of my favorite game, I remember that I was 8 years old and I were sick, so my mom woke up me and told me " me and your bothers are going to the supermarket We wanted pass to the game stop at return, U want somthing? " So I asked for a Xbox 360 game about a green robot In the Cover that I don't remember the name. 4 hours later I woke up and I found the king kong games on my Desk near to the bed we're I was sleep. So after I seeing that game I jumped out of my bed and I trowh the game in the Xbox. I love evry evry second in that game, the fight against the insects, the fight with the raptors and the the kong vs v rex part was awesome, this is probably one of the best memory of my childhood

I was literally talking to someone else on Instagram about a couple of the demos on the PlayStation 2 Holiday 2004 or 2005 demo disk, and a demo of this game just so happened to be on that same disk. You had both a Jack Chapter, and a Kong chapter. But if I remember right, the start menu was different compared to the original console and PC release versions. Then again it was almost 20 years since that demo dropped, so I could be wrong on that part.

Another difference that is worth pointing out is that the 6th gen versions had these mini-cutscenes between levels, like the one at 4:33. They were very short, like 5-10 seconds. But they are not in the 7th gen version. Having played the game on PS2 in my childhood, and then getting a copy of the 360 version years later, I kinda missed those cutscenes.

And Lego Knights Kingdoms. Tl;dr = my siblings and I had a awesome Christmas back in 2005 because of this movie.
