Afrika’s gazelles are “extremely life-like”

Some details from a hands-on of Sony Japan’s Afrika here, and some new screens. Don’t get us started. To quote:

“GNN says they found the zebras, gazelles and giraffes earlier in the game extremely life-like, like watching National Geographic channel. However, getting too close to these animals will either scare them away or being attacked by the fiercer types.”

Brilliant. Full thing through the link.

Afrika, the videogame, is “very SAFARI!”

Afrika priced and dated

Afrika gameplay trailer released

Sounds brilliant. I like this –

“Different cameras will also produce photos of different qualities and if you shakes a lot on you SIXAXIS controller, you can only get a blurry shot. SIXAXIS is also being used to adjust the angles of the photo.”

But it also sounds like it’s not going to be worth getting if there’s no English translation..

What’s the genre? But still looks amazing
