AFRIKA Reviewed by WiG: 'An Unbelievable Safari Adventure'

WhatifGaming concludes with the following:

"Afrika is anything but a point-and-click game, giving it a realistic experience that makes anyone who gets it craves for a Safari adventure that the game fully realizes. With a completely massive and endless scale of the world, and an Afrika with no bounds, the photographer's dreams of capturing beauty and the kingdom come to life in this well-balanced and extremely stirring title that will depart players with the sense to never leave the landscape again. Look at us, we're still here. Watching the sun go down across Afrika's horizon."

I truly don't understand why it's Japan-only. This is the only Japan-only game that I've ever really heard a lot about, and I was so excited to try this game out. Honestly, I think it's a mistake not to localize this in at least NA and EU.

I mean, I import fighting games (coz text is incidental) but I really want to play this game, but I think it will be like stumbling around in the dark for non Japanese speakers/readers.

5 - Great review...
I really hope they make a US version because I really like the realistic look to the game and I am kind of anxcious to play something different from all the shooters and rpg games I always play.

apparently the limited edition is signed by madonna and angelina jolie includes a special stage where you get to track down and adopt a malawian orphan.

sounds cool! Wonder if you can only use sony branded cameras and accesories? It would be pretty sweet if they had other camera manufacturers involved...Canon, Nikkon, Pentax etc.

Yeah - I'll want a sweet Canon. It would be cool if I can get all the sweet L lenses in the game that I can't afford in real life.

Its a pity the game won't be coming to the US and EU.

I bet you will be sitting for long periods of time and as soon as you look away the best picture opportunity will pass.

Reminds me of this advert.

This game sounds great, I've been curious about this since they announced in those PS3 tech videos. I definitely would love to see a US release, tired of all these FPS.

nothing wrong with with photos jereth, as far as i'm concerned. killing things in games is great and all, but being interested in photography in real life a game like this sounds cool to me. Being able to control shutter speed, aperature, white balance like a real camera is a sweet concept. Plus i will probably never get a chance to go to Africa or be able to afford high end camera gear in real life so this game peeks my interest.

18 - So it sounds like a much better version of Pokemon snap ???
I didnt mind that game and I agree its good to see a different game to the other run of the mill shooters.
