Carlos, Im not sure when it was released but it had to be just recently. This game is BY FAR the best game I have played this year. The graphics are rich and very detailed, the sound and music is very imaginative. I havnt gotten too far into the storyline yet but it involves 3 species living on islands and they all battle eachother, Sea reapers, smarties and Kabuto himself. This one will keep you occupied for a while, it has so much depth! The movies in the game are hillarious at times and very well done. I reccomend this one highly! If you dont have this game yet and want to know more about it, feel free to ask me about it. I gotta play this some more, no time for message boards!

OK I dunno why you guys dont wanna bother with this game... but Im telling yah it too kool! In my opinion it leaves Alice; "good game" and Rune and FPS games in the dust. I am no good at FPS games so this game satisfies me to the max! you all should give it a look on http://www.Gamespot.com. I guarantee youll like it. BTW I found my favotite flight sim. F22 Lightning 3. Also a great game. Well I hope everyone checks out Giants, It is an awesome game, dont miss out on this one!

I read the review and yes the game looks like a candidate for purchase. Question-- the gamespot review mentioned stability problems-- Have you had the same problem with crashes? Also, the review also mentioned that the game does not have an in game save feature-- in your opinion-- how big of a draw back is that?

Willi, no stabilty problem at all, It has not hung up once. As far as saving goes it has not made too much of a difference, the game consists of "chapters" for each of the species and in each chapter is a set of small mission. When you complete a mission it saves for you. If it were to freeze during a mission or you had to leave it you could pick up at the begining of that mission. But the missions are small so it wouldnt hurt too bad to be reset half way through one. I applied the cheat to unlock all missions "just to see the depth of the game" and if I lost my place totaly and couldnt go back to where I was, I would just use this cheat.
