Overall rating: 2.5 out of 5

from 42 members

Technically advanced and visually brilliant, Kao Challengers boasts a single player game alongside a diverse multiplayer experience which makes full use of PSP technology. Quick to pick up and play, but with a depth of gameplay that keeps players absorbed, Kao Challengers presents a rich and colourful gaming universe with 25 vividly rendered levels set across six diverse worlds ranging from Kao's natural habitat of Australia to the rather less sun-baked Arctic. Kao faces a succession of furious enemies on his journey to save the animal world from the clutches of the malevolent hunter Barnaba and his band of cruel henchmen, each with their own fiendish ways to hamper Kao's progress. Luckily, he doesn't face them alone. However,with the support of only a firefly and a parrot he'll need more than just a spring in his step to come out on top. Luckily Kao is equipped with a thoroughly devastating range of attacks including brutal tail attacks and that antipodean favourite, the boomerang throw. With off-beat transport including a snowboard, a catapult,a pelican, a water barrel and a motorboat, Kao has a plateful of travel options to choose from on top of his mean kanger-moves.

PSP or PS1?

By Jordan Cope from stroud, england , 11 Feb 2007

[Highly rated reviewer]

I excpect that some people who are more partial to a classic platformer may appriciate it more than me.

But then again I do quite enjoy a good platformer, those kind of games can be great. Sadly this was a bit of a disappointment. Its the kind of game with no origionallity. It was the Ps1 version of

Crash Bandicoot, no part of this hadn't been done beore. The parts that I played were all just a trip down memory lane. Whenever I did a jump or an attack it just seemd like deja-vu.

It's not really the kind of game I would recommend

to a friend but parts of it were kind of nice to see a type of classic gaming living on.
