Kung Fu Panda is, first of all, uncommonly attractive for a licensed title. Like the movie itself, the game really surprised me and went far beyond my expectations of a tedious churn-out. This is ironic, because Kung Fu Panda is a better than average action platformer, with a lot of neat little video game references and great production values. When a big publisher spams all platforms with a movie licensed game, it’s going to feel out of place somewhere, and it turns out that the PC just isn’t the platform for Kung Fu Panda. After combo-mashing my way through the PC version, I found that it’s like a lot of other licensed PC titles-a real fish out of water. Fellow GN staffer Dave Gamble enjoyed the Wii version for what it was, and Randy Kalista was surprised by the quality put into the 360 port. Such is the case with Kung Fu Panda, the game adaptation of Dreamworks’ latest animated film.
Movie licensed games are equal opportunity titles-they are usually released on nearly every current console and maybe a few last-gen ones as well.
