Product Description
Platform: PLAYSTATION 3
In Enslaved you take on the role of Monkey a strong, brutish loner who has been captured on a mysterious slave ship 150 years into the future. War and destruction have left the world in ruins and you are one of only a few humans left. On the slave ship you encounter Trip - a beautiful, tech-savvy young woman who is also at the mercy of her captors.
Trip is anxious to escape so she can make her way back home, but she knows she can't do it alone. She has the brains, but not the brawn - you, as Monkey are her ticket to freedom. You soon become Enslaved by Trip - bonded together by a slave headband. If you stray, you will be paralyzed by excruciating pain. If you stay, your fate is in her hands. In both cases, your freedom is no longer your own.

Fun:
The pros are it looks great and the story is engaging and well acted.
The cons are it plays like a pig at times with no real challenge to the game play. Its crying out for a simple 'jump button' as you often end up running against obstacles you should pop straight over (or through) and the climbing is effectively on rails with no possibility to mess up. The camera angles are often dreadful and I have gone through whole fights with the camera hidden in a block of scenery so I can see nothing (but still won as it all comes down to button bashing).
I like it, but it needed several months more play testing pre release.

The campaign is around 12-15 hours, depending on the difficulty you play it on and if you want to collect all the bright shiny things to upgrade your weapons and shield. Whilst the gameplay might not always be the smoothest, it is varied and always exciting, especially at certain points in the story where it can be very tense. The whole game is designed and looks beautiful, and some of the sights are breathtaking, a much better looking post-apocalyptic world than that of Fallout. The acting is flawless and you grow to really care about the characters throughout the game, which in the end is why you should be playing the game. It puts a new exciting spin on a very over used storyline and the ending, without spoiling anything, is not what i expected, but still absolutely incredible and better than what i imagined. From anything you might have seen from trailers or gameplay, you haven't seen anything..trust me. The last few levels are absolutely huge and brilliantly designed and at this point any small flaws or problems you might have with the game, will be overlooked instantly. So this game might not be COD:Black Ops, (even though it does include some quite frequent third person shooting), this game has emotion, looks, and a really fun experience.
I can't believe how under rated and overlooked this game is by the gaming community, and this game would make a brilliant christmas present, especially now it's been reduced nearly everywhere. If your a fan of action, adventure, a good storyline, good acting, or even art this game is definitely for you.

If like me you love games with a strong narrative, then this is a game you won't want to miss.
This is a game that plays well, tugs at your emotions and looks amazing. There are a few flaws but the sheer joy of seeing the story through more than makes up for the small short comings. The voice acting is second to none and although (like many 3rd person games) the camera angles can be a little clumsy, the action is intense and quick to get to grips with. In summary, it's a joy! Should you like adventure games such as, 'Uncharted' then this isn't even a decision - buy it, you'll love it!

Really good game
The game is excellent visually and gameplay wise, but there are some problems like a few glitches here and there and some camera problems. The game is good and graphically amazing.

Monkey not so magic
As the theme song to the series which is also based on the same story as the game used to state `Monkey magic, Monkey magic' but does it relate to this game? Read more

Monkey, Tripitaka and Pigsy! If you are over 35 you will probably have noticed that these names are borrowed from the cheesy, 80's TV show `Monkey'. Read more
