Zoo Tycoon

This looks fun, and the real world consequences it could have for animals is a real motivation to want to play this game. When is this supposed to come out?
 
Oh really? Sweet. I'll see how it does and then consider it.
 
Games I keep forgetting about.

Zoo Tycoon
Sunset Overdrive
Black Tusk Game
Quantum Break
 
Maybe a bit of both[feeding animals with Kinect?] but mainly controller.
 
Yeah in the demo video posted it does talk about Kinect support but it appears that most of the stuff is done with the controller. Interestingly, this game does not show up at all on Amazon anymore. Apparently it used to but Amazon took it down. Is this a digital only game?
 
Yes it is most likely digital only getting it day one for wife and kid. Out on 360 Nov 6th (around that time) with less features. On x1 on day one
 
It's cool that you can run around the actual zoo. It's be neat if they had different costumes or characters to control. Having a Master Chief or Marcus Fenix run around would be pretty neat. It'd also be nice to use your own avatar at least as well. They also need a M-rated version where I can beat up visitors and feed them to giraffes.

Seems like a nice amount of animals. Wonder if they'll add more later on as dlc. This game is still on my list ffor getting around launch depending on general impressions.
 
That's a very impressive list. I was expecting them to have maybe one or two different types of lion, tiger, rhino, etc but to go to the extent they did is fantastic.
 
Launch game? Yet so little...barely any coverage? Can't be a good thing.
Well I don't think this is really going to be a heavy hitter game like Ryse or Forza. So I'm not surprised this game isn't getting too much media coverage.
 
What kind of buggy do you have?

An elephant buggy.

Dang! You got a trunk... lucky. You ever take it off any sweet jumps?
 
Is this game $60 and literally a 3gb download? I know 'size' doesn't matter but that seems really small that I wonder how much asset variety there can be.
