Review Indiana Jones and the Staff of Kings (Wii)
You call this archaeology?
Filled with cut scenes and swashbuckling action sequences, The Staff of Kings has the feel of an actual Indiana Jones movie. There are a lot of concepts included here that, if fully realized, could have made for a spectacular movie-style game. Sadly, as it turns out the imagination of the game’s developers exceeded...

About The Game
Step into the shoes of the legendary hero, Indiana Jones, in an all new epic adventure! Set in the year 1939, Indiana Jones and the Staff of Kings™ follows the rogue archaeologist on an all-new globe-trotting quest.

I am really looking forward to this game. Plus not to mention the bonus fate of atlantis.that comes with it. it is going to be great.
really hope this turns out. I can see how the controls and camera angles could muck the whole thing up. But if they keep it simple and the voice acting is decent, i'll buy it anyways.
I played Emperors Tomb for PC. Absolutley loved it! This being the next instalment in 'mature' Indy games, I hope I'm impressed. Go Indiana!
Just got this game today and it is horrible crap. I'll keep it short. I skipped the tutorial. It made me watch it during gameplay anyhow. The tutorial takes up 80% of the time I've played the game so far to tell me green means good, red - is bad. Another 10% was devoted to cut scenes, which are unskippable. The controls are very unresponsive, so you can basically swing at air sparatically for a few minutes and hope that something connects to punch an enemy. The game is very instructional - meaning that it tells you almost exactly what to do 90% of the time you're playing and gives you the least control of any game I've played. Instead of using your gun to shoot a gunman, you must shoot a lamp near him because in 1985 everyone had BULLETPROOF BODY ARMOR and pet robots. Most of the game is trial and error. Die 3 times - to figure out how to survive on the 4th try. There was a nice part in the first level where you fly a plane. It lasts 30 seconds. I'm on the 2nd of 7 levels so far and the only thing positive I can say about this game, is that the graphics are awesome, for a wii game. But it's not distracting enough to keep you from figuring out that all their quality control testers were picked on as children and took it out on the world when they got their hands on Indiana Jones and the Staff of Kings.
