This is one of the best movie games that had no reason to be as good as it was. Played it back on the PS2 and eventually tried the PC version but neither work well at all so had to emulate PS2. It was pretty challenging when I was younger because the T-Rex was so terrifying when you play as a Jack.
Absolutely one of the best licensed movie titles of all time. Really had an amazing sense of atmosphere and tension to it, every single enemy encounter felt like a struggle that could end up killing you, while still feeling fair in terms of difficulty. The way it leverages interactions between different creatures eating and hunting each other and how you can use that to bait them into traps alongside environmental hazards was super cool. And all of that is just the FPS bits, I haven't even talked about the action sections with Kong yet!
I don't understand how this game was so good for the day and age it came out. I very fond memories of this game when I was kid on the ps2 and its just a classic survival horror to me because of the no hud it felt different from everything that was out then. People need to experience this masterpiece of a movie tie in game because there is nothing else like it!

This game had NO right to be as good as it was. It even managed to be much better than movie at least in my opinion. Even though it's not a horror game, it is survival horror-adjacent, especially when you play as Jack.
A masterpiece in storytelling and probably one of - if not the greatest - movie game tie in type of thing. It's an absolute blast of an experience... just picture yourself with that amazing oled tv, some good stereo, sitting on your leather armchair, dim lights, a proper cuban cigar and that controller on your sweaty hands as you dig thru all of this game's diverse chapters. Now that's a dream come true.
This game was my childod. I played it on PS2 and always regret the atmosphere of this game. It realy give you some horror vibes and tension because you always more weak than your enemys. Restoring this gaming is restoring an incredible piece of PS2 era and one of the best game based on a movie ever made.

Played it first time on the Xbox, the centipede movements were so impressive, voice acting was great and the atmosphere of the whole island was so good. One of the five movie tide in games that actually turned out good

Still an amazing game. The atmosphere and mechanics are still top notch. Back in the day, seeing this running on a 360 in Game Crazy actually took my breath away for a moment, because I thought it was that detailed, seeing pores on Ann's face, funny in hindsight I know. but I own it on PS2 and the relatively briefly available on Amazon DRM free PC version. However it should be put on GOG so it can be preserved for the future.
