Famitsu has a smattering of new screens for the PlayStation 3's upcoming "lions, tigers and bears, oh my!" safari title Afrika. The screens show off the tremendous rendering power of the PS3 -- each of those animals looks good enough to hunt to extinction for their precious bones and furs -- yet how exactly this whole thing is going to play remains a mystery.
Unfortunately, Sony's past history with media from games that could just as easily have been used as a tech demo generally indicated that the game is, in fact, a tech demo. Remember that cute rubber ducky? We were all pulling for a gripping tale of the fall of apartheid in a land rife with conflict between downtrodden natives and long-standing colonial oppressors, but when it came time to drop some sweet gaming action in our laps, the result wasn't exactly Kojima-esque.
Sony, if you're listening to this puh-leaze make this title worthwhile, even if that means a constant loop of Toto, lions that transform into jets and crocodiles that transform into EVEN LARGER CROCODILES! I realize that might deviate a bit from your artistic vision, but until you cats start cutting off ears you're still a capitalist entity! Remember that!
... EVEN LARGER CROCODILES!

I guess it rains down in Africa.
Wait, no, it was just the raw power of the PStttriple cunningly rendering one, and scaring me. Dam, got to buy that game.
No sarcasm there either.
NEVER! AND I DEMAND IT! And sadly, the wii just doesn't do that.
I think you mean RE5, jerk.
And only on the PS3, with the power of blueray.
Also, crocs.
