Enslaved details ripped from GI article
No way. Ninja Theory’s Enslaved’s based on Monkey! Well, sort of. It’s loosely based on middle ages Chinese novel Journey to the West, the background for the greatest television program of all time. We know because Destructoid read the title’s Game Informer reveal article and put details on the internet.
The game’s story’s written by Alex Garland, and centres on the travails of Monkey (voiced and mo-capped by Andy Serkis), who comes to be controlled by a woman called Trip. Trip needs Monkey to get home, and can make him go mental with a headband he can’t remove.
It’s set 150 years in the future after third and fourth world wars. The human race is almost dead.
Sounds sassy. Hit the link. First images of this popped up yesterday.

Have to agree Monkey was one of the greatest programmes ever.
Will Pigsy and Fish-Face make an appearance along with Monkey’s magic cloud…?
I’m far more interested now…

I was always a little disturbed that Tripitaka was so attractive. I know it was a female actress but dressed as a boy. Damn that left me confused for a while.

haha same here, sadly the actress died quite young as far as I know…
I still love that series and have the first 3 dvds, keep meaning to grab me the boxset.

The fact Monkey was imprisoned in a mountain and was only allowed to eat steel balls used to really freak me out.

He had such a thick skin, it really didn’t seem to bother him..
besides, he could do the robot.
