US version of Afrika upgraded with trophies

From an interview about Afrika with siliconera

That was going to be my next question! What kind of modifications are you making?

First and foremost there is going to be a trophy system, which wasn't in the Asian release or Japanese release. There have been other suggestions from us and other parties. So, we've been working with Rhino Soft and Sony now to tweak it. Obviously, that's not the final version out there so we're trying to see what we can do to help make it a touch better.

I was seriously considering to get the Asian version just to spend some money but with trophies in the US version, I think I'll wait for that 1 instead plus, I still need to get inFAMOUS!

2.2 - Hey I'm a fan.
I love Discovery and National Geographic.
Hell I would even call my self an Photography hobbyist, got a Pentax K10 and K1000 about a dozen lenses and I just love framing stuff...
but this game does not turn me on at all.

I would not mind trying it out but I would not call that excitement.

Isis06, "but this game does not turn me on at all."

Your problem is that you're relying on a game to turn you on. You should really look for a real animal for that instead. or better yet a female like the rest of us. :)

I agree xambol. I can't wait to play this either. I think the thing here is you can't so much go into this looking at it as a game, but rather an "experience". The graphics are stunning on this thing from what I've seen. And while I won't call myself a National Geographic fan or something, i do sometimes like watching wildlife stuff like that from time to time. And have always thought a safari would be cool. This seems to pretty much deliver that as close as it can without actually going to Africa (cause i'm not really every going there). I'll definitely be getting this. I had also intended to import the Asian/English version at one point, then they finally announced it coming over here this year. And now with the additional content and stuff added to it, that solidifies my choice of waiting for the US release. Can't wait.

When you have three kids and been in a relationship for 10 years you to will turn to your console, camera or even your cleaning equipment for sexual healing : P

3.2 - I want it.. why?
Because this seems to be pretty meditative.. I need it with my hectic work. Just chilling in the Africa and trying to find the right animal to take a picture of.

Release date, anyone?

Trophies a plus i don't know, but i actually could love to get this one. Not play it, just have it... shove the dam game into a Ps3 after a day of work to recover some sanity... just enough to jump to Killzone2 or any kill-em-all scape valve... i like it. I love animal planet xD

Lol, unless one picture is to capture a extremely rare animal with a mate that you have a 1/1000000 chance of spotting.

What are you trying to say exactly?

I'm just kidding about the fact that people complain about casual games but there is actually GOOD casual games.

People instantly assume Casual=Crap so I was saying how this game has to be hardcore because people like it.:P

It's hard to explain what I meant.

9.3 - Oh, ok :)
Your first post seemed a bit negative and angry to me, but I see what your saying.

Personally, I don't care if it's casual or core. As long as it's GOOD!

P.S.

I'm exited about Mod Nation Racers and couldn't care less about Modern Warfare 2.

I am a secret watcher of wild life shows I'm afraid. I'm also a keen photographer so I'd love to get out there and take pics of all the creepy crawlies and those big cats. Oh and the crocodiles. And elephants. And Cheetah's. Ooooooo I'd be in heaven! :)

13 - Never played any kind of game like this but...
I do love exploring and I love wildlife. Discovery Channel, Animal Planet, National Geographic, Crocodile Hunter (RIP Steve, never forget him, amazing guy) & Dog Whisperer and many other shows I forgot to mention.

Anyways looking forward to something like this that is different.

I watch Animal Planet all the time, I'll have to keep my eye on this one. I just hope they don't try to sell it at full price, maybe $30-40 would generate more sales.

17 - National Geographic + Sony
I'm a fan of both plus its exclusive, thats what i like to hear. I wonder how big the game world is, if Fuels the biggest like 3 U.S states, then whats this like & just how many animals are there to capture the souls of through your camera? I mean Ive seen lions, cheetahs, zebras and hippos, but is there say baboons, hyenas & jaguars in the game?
DAY ONE BUY GRRRRRRR
