Damn That IGN! 29 Oct, 2002, 15:27 / 8 comments

The lucky bastards over at Xbox IGN recently got some hands-on time with a pre release version of Indiana Jones and the Emperor's Tomb. Here's a quote from the article:
Indiana Jones and the Emperor's Tomb is looking good in some places while lacking in others. The Indy model bears a resemblance to Mr. Ford (think Buffy from her last game), but some of the environments and animations could use a little work. The camera also tends to get a little wild at times, but is still manageable. The audio side is faring a little better, with a voice that sounds like a good Harrison Ford impersonator. You'll occasionally hear a sly remark from Indy, much like the one-liners used in Buffy the Vampire Slayer, though maybe not quite as witty. The music is also coming along nicely with what sounds like a game-altered version of the classic John Williams score.
The feature also includes several new screenshots, so be sure to take a look.

    Seems that the game is more far away that spring 2003. Fu......

    Yes you can. I could view 3 or 4 screeshots. Then I deleted the cookie and reloaded their downloads page and continued with viewing the other screenshots. Damn cool screenshots!

    hmm, they're not very positive 'bout the game, are they?

    Seems kind of back-handed in places, but they do point out that they are playing an early version of the game. The final product isn't even coming out until the spring.

    Err.. You can't see the Photos unless you have an IGN subscription!

    Partly true. You're allowed to look at a limited number of screenshots/images on IGN per day if you're not a member. Once you exceed that number, it just takes you to a member login page.

    Or you can delete the cookie they place :)
