Call of the Wild
As games go, Hakuna Matata, also known as Afrika in Japan, is a curious beast that's hard to classify. Yes, it's the same title as that song in the Disney animated classic: The Lion King. Flashback: Pumbaa, the warthog sings Hakuna Matata, which means "no worries" in Swahili. Think of it as the safari version of Grand Theft ...[en lire plus...]

description
You are a photographer stationed in Africa in this adventure, as a professional you will have the newest equipment such as camera lenses and computers.
Accept missions by viewing proposals via your email system, finding and tracking animals are only the start of your mission, you might be asked to take photos of them at unique angles, such as taking a close up shot of a giraffe's face. You'd realize you need a lot of skills to be an accomplished photographer.
You'll have a lot of equipment to choose from, from cameras to your camping gear. Of course these cost money, so be sure to accept as much missions as you can manage, besides, some organizations provide you with useful equipment such as tripods that you can use even after you have completed their request.
The game makes use of PS3's stunning graphical capabilities to render animations of animals to the most life-like degree. Remember how a clip from the game is used as a demonstration of the PlayStation3 prowess during the console's promotion? Now you can see why.

Gratifying and laid-back Hakuna Matata is a very good game, for a very good price. If you like trophies, pony up a bit more and get the US Afrika version, which has them - this version does not support trophies.
Graphics: Very good, with great animations. Animals look and behave believably.
Audio: Sound effects are fantastic! Animals sound life-like. The audiotrack is okay, if a bit repetitive.
Gameplay: Hakuna Matata is a very laid-back game. You hop into a jeep and drive around looking for animals to take pictures from, most often to send back to publishers who ask you for specific shots (i.e. a shot of a giraffe drinking water). The camera behaves well and does not get in your way. Gameplay is simple and can be very rewarding for the patient ones - sometimes you just have to find a good spot and wait for the perfect opportunity.
Overall: Very good, relaxing game. You can't "die", nor is it possible to get lost or miss anything in the game. Recommended for playing with family, or girlfriend/boyfriend not used to gaming etc.
Different, yet enjoyable game Unfortunately, given the recent US release implemented trophies which were not back-patched into this release (and the devs do not appear have any intention of doing so), buying the English/Korean version is not advised.
Very peaceful and relaxing If your a fan of animals, you should get try this game because their mannerisms are quite realistic. This is as close as you will get to the real thing without actually being there.
The only negative is the graphics from far away and being able to go where you want with the car at the beginning of the game.
Something for everyone The idea is a simple one, take photos of animals in the wild. The depth is incredible. For anyone interested in photography, beginner to professional, this is a great game for learning how DSLRs work. This is the kind of game that you can apply real world knowledge of manual settings on camera and having them actually work in a video game. I bought this game with limited knowledge of photography and through gradual playing and learning, have come to know the terms and obtained the skills to take better photos. Only downside is that only Sony Cameras are featured, but that's to be expected, I suppose.
Great safari game If you don't have time to take vacation to Africa, this game is definitely a must have for PS3 owner. The game is not only present the beauty of the land and all inhabitants, but also introduce us to the work of wild life documentary. Starting from camera with multiple option of lenses to remote controlled video camera, make you believe that you are currently shooting the wild life. The photo session is so realistic that it can teach you the basic and intermediate use of DSLR camera and its complete collection of lenses, which is so expensive to afford in real life :)
The only down side is there're only Sony products since they are the main sponsor :)
